We build fitness and workout tracker mobile apps for Canadian gym chains, yoga and pilates studios, CrossFit boxes, and personal trainers. Member app for booking and on-demand workouts, trainer dashboard for class scheduling, Stripe membership billing, and Apple HealthKit / Google Fit sync — App Store ready in 8–12 weeks at roughly half the cost of typical Canadian fitness-tech vendors.
Markham is the GTA's technology capital — Canada's Silicon Valley North — home to IBM, AMD, Honeywell, Huawei Canada, and over 1,500 tech firms across the Markham Centre and 404 corridor. The city also hosts a fast-growing Indian-Canadian population concentrated in Unionville, Cornell, and Wismer, attracted by top-rated schools and proximity to high-paying tech roles in Richmond Hill and downtown Toronto.
Canada’s fitness industry generates roughly CAD 4.8 billion in annual revenue across ~6,000 facilities, with GoodLife Fitness, Anytime Fitness, F45, OrangeTheory, and boutique chains making up the bulk. The pandemic permanently shifted ~25–30% of fitness consumption to a hybrid model where members expect on-demand video alongside in-studio classes. Mindbody (US-based) and Wodify dominate gym SaaS booking; GoodLife and large chains have proprietary apps. Boutique studios increasingly want their own branded apps so they own the customer relationship instead of paying ClassPass to commoditize them. Apple HealthKit (iOS) and Google Fit / Health Connect (Android) sync is now table stakes for any fitness app — members want their workout to show up on their Apple Watch activity ring. Apple App Store has specific guidelines for health and fitness apps: clear data-handling disclosures, no unsupported medical claims, and explicit permission flows for HealthKit data. Stripe is the dominant payments rail in CAD; recurring memberships, pause/resume, and household plans are all supported natively. PIPEDA applies to member data, and Canadian data residency is preferable but not mandatory unless you store PHI. Quebec-operating studios need French localization. Single-studio member apps ship in 8–10 weeks; multi-location chains with trainer programming and video streaming take 12–16.
Members browse the weekly class schedule, book a spot, join a waitlist, and check in via QR code at the door. Class packs (10 classes for $200), unlimited monthly memberships, and intro offers (first month $49) all supported. Late-cancel fees and no-show penalties enforced automatically per your studio policy.
Trainer-built workout library with video demos, exercise notes, rep / set / weight tracking, personal records (PRs), and weekly volume summaries. WOD-style daily-workout drop for CrossFit boxes. Workouts sync to Apple HealthKit and Google Fit, so members see their activity ring fill and calorie burn alongside their other workouts.
Stream live classes from your studio (Zoom or RTMP / HLS), record automatically, and publish to an on-demand library. Members at home or travelling can take a yoga class with their favourite instructor. Useful when winter weather drops attendance in January and you want to keep membership engagement up.
Recurring CAD memberships, annual plans, family / household plans, pause-membership (great for snowbird customers), automatic dunning for failed cards, and Apple Pay / Google Pay sign-up. Stripe handles GST/HST capture per province. Upgrade and downgrade plans in-app without calling the front desk.
Trainers build and assign workout programs, message clients in-app, view client progress (PRs, attendance, body metrics), and run online challenges. Group-program and 1:1 client workflows. Trainer payout splits via Stripe Connect if your studio shares revenue with contracted trainers.
Class-reminder pushes 2 hours before, waitlist-cleared alerts, leaderboards for monthly challenges, and an in-app community feed for members to celebrate PRs. Optional referral programs that credit both sides with a free class.
Yes. We build branded fitness apps for Canadian studios and gym chains including those in Markham — with class booking and waitlist, Stripe CAD memberships with pause / resume, Apple HealthKit and Google Fit sync, and French localization for Quebec studios. Live in 8–12 weeks. WhatsApp +91-9277-184-741 to scope your Markham studio.
Mindbody / Wodify are excellent off-the-shelf for class booking and basic membership. Your own branded app makes sense when you want a custom on-demand video library, your own loyalty / referral mechanics, or to consolidate multi-location under one member identity. Honest answer: if you are a single studio doing basic booking, Mindbody might be the right call.
Yes — full Apple HealthKit and Google Fit / Health Connect integration. Members see workouts contribute to their daily activity rings and calorie targets, which dramatically improves retention because the app feels native to their phone’s health hub.
Yes — pause-membership for 1, 2, or 3 months is a standard feature, very popular with snowbird customers who winter in Arizona or Florida. Membership resumes automatically. Reduces churn substantially versus forcing cancel-then-rejoin.
No — we use providers like Mux, Daily.co, or RTMP to YouTube Live behind a paywall. You stream from your studio with a standard webcam or iPhone, members watch in-app. We can also pre-record and publish to an on-demand library, which most studios end up doing more than live.
Single-studio member app with booking + Stripe membership + workout tracking: 8–10 weeks. Multi-location with trainer programming and on-demand video: 12–16 weeks. Apple review averages 24–48 hours for first submission.
