Ares workout list on iPhone, three marked On Apple Watch, and one more swiped right to show the add-to-watch action Workouts on Apple Watch in Ares

Train with just your watch.

Leave your phone in the locker. Your watch runs the whole workout on its own.

  • Up to 50 workouts on your watch
  • Countdown, voice and haptics on your wrist
  • Heart rate and calories land in your history on iPhone

Without Plus: one workout on your watch.

Recording an exercise name in your own voice in Ares
“Morning set” in Ares: five workouts in a row, each with its own voice recording
Every workout in the set can have its own recording.

Train without looking at the screen.

Record an exercise name in your own voice. You hear it at the start, so you know what to do without checking your phone.

  • In your own words: a name, a cue or a reminder
  • Also for workouts without a library exercise
  • Recordings stay on your iPhone only
Pattern screen in Ares: a 7-interval pyramid from 20 to 50 s, 5 min 35 s in total Exercises in intervals in Ares: squats, lunges, jump squats, burpees, mountain climbers, glute bridge and plank

Intervals that change as you go.

Set the shortest and longest time and Ares lays out the intervals for you: getting longer, getting shorter, longer then shorter again, or with rest that keeps getting shorter. No need to add them one by one.

  • Ares works out the times, or you set each interval yourself
  • A different exercise every interval, the voice says what’s now
  • A chart shows the whole workout before you start

Without Plus: one saved workout with a pattern and three tries.

Ares Timer with custom times: 33 s of work and 17 s of rest Custom times in Ares: 17 s, 33 s, 47 s and 2 min 16 s

Exactly the time your plan says.

Your plan says 33 seconds of work and 17 of rest? Add those times and pick them like any other.

  • From 3 seconds to 6 hours
  • As many times as you need
  • Removing a time doesn’t change saved workouts

Without Plus: one custom time.

Make Ares look like yours.

  • Workout screen only

Every theme comes in light and dark, and every workout can have its own. Tap a theme to preview it.

Questions and answers

Is Ares free without Plus?

Yes. The timer, Left/Right mode, workouts and sets, voice cues, Apple Watch with heart-rate zones, Apple Health, history and widgets are free, with no ads and no time limit. There is also no limit on how many basic workouts and sets you save or how long they are. One custom work or rest time, one workout on Apple Watch and one workout with a pattern are free too.

What is the difference between monthly, yearly and Forever?

Only how you pay. All three unlock the same Plus features. Monthly and yearly renew automatically; Forever is a single payment that never renews.

What happens when my subscription ends?

Nothing is deleted. Saved workouts keep playing with their patterns, custom times and exercises. Themes, voices and sounds switch back to the free ones, and the voice reads out the exercise name instead of your recording. Renew Plus and everything is back.

I have a new iPhone. How do I get Plus back?

Plus is tied to your Apple Account. Open the Plus screen and tap Restore Purchases. Have a promo code? Use Redeem Code on the same screen.

How do I cancel a subscription?

Tap Manage Subscription on the Plus screen, or go to iPhone Settings → your name → Subscriptions. Do it at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Forever has nothing to cancel; if you switch to it, cancel your old subscription so you are not charged twice.

Where are my voice recordings stored?

Only on your iPhone, inside the app’s data. They are included in your iPhone’s iCloud backup and are not sent to me or anyone else.

Can my family use Plus?

Yes. Plus supports Family Sharing, so everyone in your Family Sharing group gets it at no extra cost.

Train your way.

Download Ares for free and turn on Plus whenever you like.
