A plan that fits
Seven days of short exercises in six types: walking, mobility, strength, cardio, recovery and stretching. If Apple Health has no history yet, you start with a gentle starter plan.
iPhone and Apple Watch
A week of short exercises, planned around you.
Tell Actiiv your goal and how hard you want to go. It builds a simple plan of exercises you can do at home, with no equipment, reminds you at sensible times, and adjusts as you tell it what felt right.
Coming to the App Store. Works with or without an Apple Watch. Requires iOS 26.4 or later.
How it works
From a few questions to your first exercise in a minute.
Setup is short, and you can skip anything you would rather not share.
Choose a goal
Reduce sitting, move more, build strength, improve cardio, stay consistent or recover well.
Pick a level
Soft, Medium, Pro or Extreme. You can change it whenever it stops feeling right.
Get your plan
A week of exercises built from your goal, your level and, if you allow it, your recent activity in Apple Health.
Move, then tell it how it felt
Too easy, about right or too hard. Future plans take that into account.
What you get
Everything to make a small habit stick.
Right for your level
Soft sessions are about 5 to 8 minutes. Extreme sessions run 15 to 20. Your birth year, if you share it, keeps suggestions suitable for your age.
Reminders you can act on
Each exercise gets a reminder at a planned time. Tap Done, Snooze for 30 minutes or Skip straight from the notification.
Run it from the Dynamic Island
Start an exercise, leave the app, and pause, resume or finish it from the Dynamic Island or Lock Screen. A "Time's up" alert tells you when the timer ends.
Nudges when you have been still
Without a Watch, Actiiv can notice from your step count that you have been still for a while, and suggest your next exercise. It stays inside your active hours.
Progress you can see
A day streak, exercises and minutes this week, and a seven-day strip. Skipping one exercise skips only that one, so a bad moment does not ruin the day.
Working from home
Desk days, broken up.
Hours can pass without standing up. Actiiv notices when you have been still, nudges you inside your working hours, and gives you short exercises you can do at your desk.
It notices when you have been still
On an Apple Watch, a ring shows how long you have been still and prompts a movement break. On an iPhone alone, Actiiv uses your step count.
Only in your working hours
Choose the hours you are active and how many reminders you want. When you are busy, snooze or skip straight from the notification.
Exercises you can do at your desk
A 5-minute desk reset, neck and shoulder moves, a seated knee tuck, seated leg raises, sit-to-stand and a walk-and-mobilise break. No equipment, no change of clothes.
General wellness suggestions, not medical advice. Read the desk exercise guide.
Live Activity
Your exercise, without opening the app.
Once an exercise is running, it stays in the Dynamic Island and on your Lock Screen with a live countdown.
- Pause and resume from the island, and the clock stops and restarts.
- Tap Done when you finish. Ending very early counts as skipped, not completed, so your history stays honest.
- Start it in the app. iOS only lets an app begin a Live Activity while it is open, so the first tap happens in Actiiv.
Screens
Clear, calm, quick to use.
Levels
Start where you are.
Pick the intensity that feels right today. Nothing is locked.
SoftGentle walks and easy stretches, 5 to 8 minutes. Great for getting started.
MediumLight cardio and standing exercises, 8 to 12 minutes.
ProModerate strength and core work, 10 to 15 minutes, for regular exercisers.
ExtremeDemanding sessions of 15 to 20 minutes, for people who already train.
Apple Watch
Better with a Watch. Complete without one.
If you wear an Apple Watch, Actiiv can send your exercises to your wrist and remind you there. The Watch shows today's exercises and the week ahead, with the time each one is due, and finished exercises can be saved to Apple Health as workouts.
- This Week shows today's exercises with their times and the days to come.
- During an exercise the Watch shows your heart rate and active calories.
- Movement breaks prompt you after a long still period.
No Watch? Everything else works on your iPhone alone: reminders, exercises, the Dynamic Island, nudges and progress. Actiiv detects which you have, and you can change it in Settings.

Questions
Good to know before you download.
I work from home and sit most of the day. Will it help?
Actiiv is built to break up long stretches of sitting. It nudges you after you have been still, keeps reminders inside your working hours, and offers short seated and standing exercises. It gives general wellness suggestions and is not medical advice. If you have back or neck pain, talk to a doctor or other qualified professional first.
Do I need an Apple Watch?
No. Actiiv works fully on an iPhone. A Watch adds exercises and reminders on your wrist and movement breaks.
Which devices does it need?
An iPhone running iOS 26.4 or later. The Watch app needs watchOS 26.4 or later.
Do I have to share my Apple Health data?
No. If you do, Actiiv uses your recent steps, activity and workouts to fit your plan. If you do not, you get a gentle starter plan based on your goal and level, and it still works.
Is it medical advice?
No. Actiiv gives general wellness and exercise suggestions. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose or treat anything. If you have a health condition, are pregnant, or are unsure whether an exercise is safe for you, talk to a doctor or other qualified professional first, and stop if you feel pain or unwell.
Does it need an account?
No. There is nothing to sign in to. Your plan and settings stay on your iPhone and Apple Watch.
How does pricing work?
Actiiv is a subscription with a 7-day free trial, billed monthly or yearly. The price is shown in the app and on the App Store before you subscribe. The subscription renews automatically until you cancel, and you can cancel at any time in your Apple ID settings. If you cancel during the trial you are not charged. If your subscription ends, Actiiv asks you to subscribe again to keep using it.
Can I restore my subscription on a new phone?
Yes. Open Actiiv and tap Restore purchases on the subscription screen, or in Settings. It uses the Apple ID you subscribed with.
Something is not working. Who do I ask?
