About PushBoss
PushBoss is a fitness game for iPhone that relies on the camera and AI-based pose detection to count genuine push-ups as you do them. Each clean rep deals damage to a boss, and bad form lets the boss hit back. The app lists more than nine bosses with rising difficulty and a choice of Boot Camp, Anime or Monster Hunt style.
An XP and leveling system and daily streaks reward consistency, workouts adjust to your fitness level, and there is a 100-rep challenge. Sessions can be screen-recorded and shared to TikTok in one tap. The app offers three free sessions and in-app purchases.
