1. 7 Features Every Fitness App Must Have We had discussed the top ideas for fitness apps earlier. Now, we would like to take it forward and introduce the must-have features for the fitness app. Based on our study of fitness apps, and the consumers of these apps, we have come down to 7 features that are important for the success of fitness apps. Social Sign-up It is important for the user to register, in order to keep a track of their fitness.

Routes for walks and cycling, as well as the number of steps and other goals are established and published on social platform. Connectivity with wearable Everyone, who is into fitness, has a wearable device tracking their heart rates, the number of steps they travel each day and other details. If your app cannot connect with this wearable device, it will not connect with the users. Make sure your app can connect with the wide range of fitness trackers available in the market. Easy activity tracking The app should keep a track of all the activities the user is into. If possible, make sure your app can track the activities that the fitness band can. You should also make a insightful presentation of the data available. How often have they overstepped their goals, and is it time for them to change the goals? These details will help them workout more and better. You should give them weekly and monthly tracking details, so that they

These routes can be created easily and managed too with the help of geolocation tracking enabled into the app. It will also help keep a record of the routes you have walked and the kms you have tracked. Goal settings For any fitness app, it is important that they ask for the goal the user wants to accomplish. It is important to set the goal right at the start, which will help the user keep a track of their work out and see if they have actually accomplished it. If a particular goal is accomplished, they should be able to change the goal. The goals help maintain the workout schedule. The actual workouts The app should contain workouts that meet your app’s premise. It should be promising for the users who have signed up. Do you have recorded videos or, are you planning on helping them with a regime to start the workout? These things help engage the users better with the app. Make sure you have settings that help the users customize the apps and prepare the users for a more personalized workout.
