About Matter: Training & Recovery
Matter turns the data you already collect into a decision you can act on this morning: today's session from your coach, your readiness from your own baselines, and one tap to start. TODAY, FROM YOUR COACH The session your coach assigned leads your Home screen, with the reason behind it. Start it, read the steps, or ask the AI coach about it. Every session your coach writes is tagged, and you check it off as you finish. KNOW BEFORE YOU TRAIN Readiness, recovery, strain and sleep from your wearables, scored against your own 14- and 30-day baselines rather than a population average. When you have overreached, Matter says so and why. When there is not enough data to say, it says that instead of filling the gap with a number. TIMED WORKOUTS AMRAP, EMOM, For Time, Tabata, Intervals and Circuit blocks run in a full-screen timer with lock-screen cues and a Live Activity. Your block scores go to your coach with the session. RIGHT NOW Some days the question is what to do in the next hour. Tell Matter how you feel (Recover, Steady, Push or Surprise) and it builds four different sessions from your training, sized to the time you have. Nothing on your calendar changes unless you schedule it. EVERY SESSION, EXPLAINED Time in each heart-rate zone, strain, energy and splits for every workout, with an AI read on the load that carries its confidence. PROGRESS IN PLAIN WORDS Best-ever lifts and estimated one-rep maxes, weekly training hours against your own average, and fitness markers written as sentences, not acronyms. BUILD A SESSION ANY WAY YOU LIKE Write it, start from a template, ask the AI builder, or photograph a workout on a whiteboard and let Matter turn it into a session you can run. Runs and rides come with routes drawn from your own history, with one tap to Apple Maps. YOUR COACH SEES THE WHOLE PICTURE Check-ins, mood, meals and soreness reach your coach as context. Messages hold conversations with several coaches and your team. Every AI-drafted change a coach makes is propose-only: nothing reaches you without their approval. WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY WEAR Apple Health and Apple Watch out of the box. Connect WHOOP, Strava, Intervals.icu and other supported providers from Devices and apps, which shows what is connected, what is stale, and how to fix it. If you sleep in a WHOOP, your night comes from it. BUILT TO BE READ One design system in light and dark. Text follows your text-size setting, motion respects Reduce Motion, and every control carries a VoiceOver label. SPORTS Running, cycling, swimming, rowing, strength, CrossFit-style timed formats, and triathlon, with sport-specific depth. PRIVACY Your health data stays yours. GDPR and CCPA compliant. Never sold. Free for athletes. Matter Pro unlocks the AI coach, Right now and advanced analytics. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Matter Pro is available as a monthly or annual auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.

What’s new
Version 3.3 · Updated October 18, 2026
TIMED WORKOUTS AMRAP, EMOM, For Time, Tabata, Intervals and Circuit blocks run in a full-screen timer that shows the round, the work or rest phase, and what comes next. Round and phase changes arrive as lock-screen alerts, and the Live Activity shows the current phase. When a block finishes, its score (rounds and reps, or your finish time) is saved and sent to your coach with the session. A NEW HOME Today's session from your coach leads the screen, with readiness, recovery, strain and sleep underneath. Rearrange, hide and restore Home cards from the Add cards tray. MESSAGES Conversations with several named coaches and your team, in one list. INTERVALS.ICU Connect Intervals.icu from Devices and apps with guided API-key setup. YOUR WEARABLE'S NIGHT If you sleep in a WHOOP, your sleep, HRV and resting heart rate now come from it, and recovery and readiness are scored from that night against its own baseline. REDESIGNED, SCREEN BY SCREEN One design system in light and dark, text that follows your text-size setting, motion that respects Reduce Motion, and VoiceOver labels on every control. Recovery, sleep, strain, readiness, training load, energy, stress and weight each lead with today's value, what it means, and the trend. MOVING TIME Every completed workout now shows moving time. When the elapsed clock ran a lot longer, a short note says so. FIXES - Recording an assigned workout on the phone and Apple Watch at the same time no longer counts the session twice. - Failed workout syncs retry, and a recent HealthKit replay recovers missing wearable measurements. - AI changes that affect your coach or your plan arrive as Approve cards; a failed Approve says so instead of showing a raw server error.
