The AI coach

Maxtopia includes an AI coach that runs on your device using Apple Intelligence. Your training history is never sent to a server — there’s no server to send it to.

What it can do

• Suggest a program based on your goals and available days.
• Recommend exercise substitutions when equipment is missing.
• Review your recent training and point out trends.
• Answer questions about technique, programming, and progression.

What it can’t do

• It isn’t a medical professional or a substitute for a qualified coach.
• It works from the data on your device, so it doesn’t know anything you haven’t logged.
• On-device models are smaller than cloud models, so keep prompts concrete.

Example prompts

• “Build me a 3-day full-body program for a home gym with dumbbells and a pull-up bar.”
• “I can’t do back squats this week — what’s a good substitute?”
• “Look at my last month of bench press and tell me if I’m progressing.”

Device requirements

The AI coach runs entirely on-device, which means it needs a device that supports Apple Intelligence:

• iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max
• iPhone 16 and later (all models)
• iPads and Macs with Apple Intelligence (for those platforms)

If your iPhone is older than that, the AI coach won’t be available — Apple Intelligence isn’t supported on those chips, and we won’t pretend otherwise.

Everything else in Maxtopia works regardless. Logging, programs, the 700+ exercise library, history, Apple Watch, sharing, and iCloud backup all run on any supported iPhone. The AI coach is an add-on, not the core of the app, so an older phone costs you that one feature — nothing else.

Privacy

Because the model runs locally, your prompts and training data stay on your device. See the privacy policy for the full picture.
