About this app

CaliForma watches your calisthenics through the camera and tells you what happened: how many reps, which ones counted, how deep you went, and what to fix next time. Everything runs on your phone. No video leaves the device unless you choose to share a clip.

TRAIN WITH THE CAMERA
Prop up your phone, get into position, and go. CaliForma counts push-ups, pull-ups, dips, squats, pistol squats, muscle-ups and handstand push-ups, judges depth and lockout, and calls out the fault that matters most: hips sagging, a rushed descent, uneven knees. Static holds are timed and graded too: planche leans, tuck planche, L-sit, frog stand and crow pose. Voice cues keep you in the set instead of looking at the screen.

LEARN SKILLS STEP BY STEP
Skill ladders take you from your first incline push-up toward planche, front lever, handstand and muscle-up, one measured step at a time. Each step shows what it trains, the form cues that matter, and what to fix when it isn't working.

FOLLOW A PLAN
Answer a short interview and get a starter program matched to your level, equipment and training days. Sessions land on your calendar with the reps, holds and rest built in. Guided cardio intervals, logged sets and weights for gym work, and a weekly volume view over what you actually did.

SEE WHAT YOU TRAINED
Every movement knows its primary and assisting muscles. The Progress tab shades an anatomical figure by the sets you logged this week and lists where the work went, so an unbalanced week is visible before it becomes a sore shoulder.

WORK WITH A COACH
Connect to a coach with an invite link. Share the clips you choose, get feedback on specific reps, receive plans built for you, and message your coach in the app. Coaches use the CaliForma Coach app on the Mac.

HONEST MEASUREMENT
CaliForma tells you when it could not see the bottom of a rep rather than guessing, and counts a shallow rep as a rep while marking it as such. Three strictness tiers let beginners and strict-form athletes use the same tools.

PRIVACY
Pose analysis happens on the device. Your account holds your results, your plan and your interview answers; you can export or delete all of it from Settings at any time.

CaliForma is free. Pro features arrive in a later release.

Workouts
• A workout planned for a later day can be moved to today and started.
• The exercise figures move smoothly through a rep; they no longer bounce or stretch.

Coaching
• The coaching consent spells out what a coach can see: health information from the interview, and the measurements and photos you choose to share.
