About HealthBuddy
HealthBuddy, listed as AI Rep Counter: HealthBuddy, is a workout and nutrition tracker for iPhone and Apple Watch. An on-device motion model counts reps through AirPods, and the app generates multi-week training programs from your goal, level, equipment and schedule with Foundation, Intensify, Peak and Deload phases.
Logging covers warm-up, working, drop and failure sets with weight, reps, duration or distance, automatic personal records, and effort tracking by words, reps in reserve or RPE that adjusts the remaining sets and feeds a muscle map. A routine builder offers a wizard and an exercise library with body part, equipment and category filters. Nutrition features include camera food scanning, described meals with AI macro estimates, water and supplement logging, and 18 body metrics with Apple Health sync.
An Apple Watch companion lets you browse routines, log sets and track heart rate, and Live Activity, Dynamic Island, widgets and Siri Shortcuts are supported. The app is free to download with in-app purchases.
