1(No Transcript)
2What Is a Fitness App? Building a fitness app is
more than just developing a gym workout app. This
mobile app is designed to improve your health on
the go. The scope of these applications ranges
all the way from simple activity tracking to the
actual provision of providing fitness-related
advice or exercises via a mobile interface. Or,
applications can be a way for clients to take
control of themselves or let others evaluate
their performance and suggest tools for
improvement. And from a companys point of view
mobile interfaces can be a communication tool
and often the primary way from which customers
consume and purchase fitness products. The
options are almost endless.
3What Is FitCoach? FitCoach is a fitness app for
people starting a new active lifestyle,
developing healthy habits, losing weight, getting
in shape, and feeling better. Their famous 30-day
fitness plan makes it easy to change your
lifestyle, adjust your diet, and get actionable
body care tips. Moreover, they also provide
training sessions for people who have just
started working out. The FitCoach app is
specially designed for people who care about
their health, want to lose weight, and stay in
shape, but dont have time to go to the gym. It
is also for those who want to change their lives
and pay more attention to their health.
4- How Do You Build Your Own Fitness App?
- With all of this in mind, youll prepare a
successful strategy for creating a mobile fitness
application. The development process should
consist of the following steps - Competitor Analysis
- There are many mobile fitness apps on the market,
so you need to find something that makes your
solution unique. So carry out a detailed
competitor analysis including product features,
design features, platforms, user reviews, and
more. - You can read customer reviews, positive or
negative, on the App Store and Google Play. This
will help you identify your competitors
strengths and weaknesses and understand how you
can stand out from their backgrounds.
5- Target Audience Analysis
- By analyzing your competitors, you can find out
what questions and preferences your customers
have. You can find your audience in social
networks, groups, forums, etc. - Read their posts and comments and communicate
with them to clarify their needs. Identify a
users identity by specifying goals such as age,
country, body shape, tracking physical activity,
habit formation, or a healthy lifestyle.
- Prepare for Reference Conditions
- Think about how much value your mobile fitness
app will add to your users, how your app should
look and work, how users will interact with it,
and what it can do. If your requirements are
difficult to formulate specifically, your IT
service provider will always be happy to help.
6- Design
- Success in the marketplace requires a lot of
loyal customers. Most people dont use digital
products with unattractive designs and slow
content. So, create beautiful mobile fitness apps
that deliver amazing user experiences. - MVP Development
- An MVP, or minimally viable product, is a
solution with a minimal set of features to
accomplish the required task. We recommend using
this approach as it offers many benefits. - First, it can reduce the cost of developing
fitness applications. Second, it shortens time to
market. Third, attract first users and collect
feedback. Analyze customer feedback to get a
clear idea of ??what needs to be improved or
changed.
7- Testing and Debugging
- During this phase, quality assurance (QA)
engineers test the mobile fitness app for bugs
and ensure compliance with requirements. Then the
software developer solves all the problems. - Release
- When everything is ready, we launch it to the
market. That is, we publish to the App Store
and/or Google Play. This is where you have to
deal with things like App Store Optimization
(ASO), product icons, screens, and descriptions.
8- Features To Include In your Fitness App
- Easy Mobile Onboarding
- Users can register or log in to the app by
entering their personal information such as name,
date of birth, location, age, gender, current
weight and height, and email address. Some
applications also allow social media
registrations where users can log in via social
media handles. - User Profile Creation
- Users can create a profile, add options and
preferences, so the app provides the content and
offers they want. The user panel also shows
progress and training programs that have been
attended in the past and are currently in
progress.
9- Punching In Workout Details
- This feature allows you to track each users
physical activity. To this end, users can connect
the application to their smartphones sensors to
implement tracking using Apple HealthKit and
GoogleFit via APIs, or they can choose to
manually enter data. - Quality Workout Guides Videos
- Fitness Workout Videos gives users access to
training programs with high-quality videos where
they learn how to perform exercises properly
demonstrated by professional fitness trainers. - Maps Routes
- For running, cycling, and other fitness activity
tracking applications, its important to use
routing overlays to display maps. Users dont
necessarily have to use this feature on the go,
but they will review it once the training is
complete.
10- Real-Time Notifications
- Easy. You need to notify your users about your
training, offer discounts during the season when
youre feeling better, and update when others
comment on your post. - One thing to keep in mind about notifications is
that its easy to exploit this feature and turn
it off for your customers. - Multi-App Integrations
- Lets face it many of us love training on our
favorite audio content pieces, but its confusing
if you need to switch between workouts and
players. Thats why its so important to
integrate your workout app with Apple Music,
Spotify, or other music streaming services. - Meal Planners Calorie Counting
- Of course, when creating a fitness planner app,
you cant ignore meal planning and calorie
counting. The best apps in this category provide
exaggerated information about ingredients and
recommend recipes based on user goals,
preferences, and constitutions.
11- Quality Workout Guides Videos
- If you create a fitness app, you need to add a
class streaming option. Im confident that
Peloton is the perfect role model for this and
one can draw a lot of ideas from the company.
However, its important to integrate all these
features into one seamless fitness program
experience. - Workout Timers
- Users can choose the duration of these movements
starting from 5 minutes while doing strength
training, yoga, cardio, and other workouts. While
exercising, the user can pause on the exercise
screen, skip the exercise, and turn the sound on
and off. - Workout Goals Objectives
- Allows users to set goals and objectives. Because
what can be a better motivation for prioritizing
fitness. This feature is a goal tracker that
helps users achieve their fitness goals
perfectly.
12- Barcode Scanner
- If you have a diet app, you can integrate the app
with a barcode scanner. Bar scanners help you
shop by letting you know the nutritional value of
your groceries. - Online Consultation
- The app may provide online advice to receive
personalized recommendations. To that end, you
can integrate chat functionality to make things
much easier and smoother. - Gaming Elements
- With gamification, you can further improve your
apps experience. This will enhance user
engagement with the app. App developers can apply
gamification in various sections such as
Leaderboards, Goal Achievers, etc.
13Wrapping Up The health care and fitness
industry is on the rise. With more people
preferring to work out at home the demand for
such apps is increasing. With complete knowledge
of launching a healthcare and fitness app, you
can successfully leverage the vast potential of
this market.
