Running Your Coaching Business From Your Phone: What the Coach Apps Cover

What you can do from the Trainzilla coach app on iOS and Android: clients, plans, check-ins, chat, payments and more, and what still needs the web dashboard.

Coaching rarely happens at a desk. You are between sessions, on the gym floor or travelling when a client's check-in comes in. The Trainzilla coach app for iOS and Android is built for those moments.

What you can do in the app

  • See your client list and open any client's profile, goals, progress and recent activity.
  • Build and edit workout and diet plans, including per-exercise types such as intervals or AMRAP.
  • Review check-ins, progress photos and habit compliance.
  • Message clients and answer them in chat.
  • Post and reply in your coaching community.
  • Manage billing: see plans and payments, and connect your own Stripe or Razorpay account.
  • Gym owners get membership, renewals and attendance screens.
  • Show your own check-in code for the gym kiosk.

What the web dashboard still adds

The mobile app and the web dashboard share the same account and data. Some heavier jobs are still easier on a bigger screen, such as bulk importing clients from a spreadsheet, large gym data imports and detailed reports. We build for parity between web and mobile, but they do not always ship on the same day, and new features can reach the web first.

A sensible split

  1. Phone: quick check-in reviews, replying to clients, approving AI-drafted plans, confirming payments.
  2. Laptop: planning a new program, importing clients, reviewing the month's numbers.

Your clients' side

Clients use the free Trainzilla client app, which wears your logo and colours on Coach Pro. They log training and meals, complete check-ins, and see the plans you approve.

Language support

The coach apps are localised into several languages, so your interface can match your language.
