Overview
An online platform for fitness trainers that helps them manage their clients, create personalized programs, and grow their business from anywhere.
Challenges
Fitness and nutrition coaches often face challenges in managing their clients, creating personalized programs, tracking progress, and handling administrative tasks efficiently. Many rely on a fragmented set of tools, leading to inefficiencies, increased costs for both coaches and their clients. The core challenge was to consolidate these disparate functions into a single, intuitive, and powerful platform that caters specifically to the needs of fitness professionals.

Stridist coaches and their clients needed a native mobile experience that felt fast, familiar, and always within reach.
We built the Stridist mobile app using Capacitor - a modern approach that bundles a web application into fully native compatible iOS and Android apps. This isn’t a simple website wrapper. The app is carefully optimised for mobile performance, touch interactions, and native device features, while sharing 100% of the business logic with the web platform. As a result, coaches can manage clients, send programs, and track progress from their phone, and clients get a smooth, app-store-ready experience on both iOS and Android.
With Capacitor, we achieved:
[01]
One codebase: web + iOS + Android
A single team maintains everything, not three separate tracks. This simplifies the development process, reduces long-term cost, and means engineers don't need platform-specific expertise.
[02]
Seamless release rollout
Because the native app wraps a web bundle, most updates ship by simply replacing that bundle with no App Store or Play Store review required for minor fixes. This dramatically speeds up iteration and keeps every branded variant in the stores synchronized.
[03]
Native device access
Capacitor's plugin system gives JavaScript direct access to native APIs: the camera for progress photos, push notifications for messages and reminders, and the native share sheet for social publishing. Almost any native capability can be added with a pre-built plugin, removing the need for deep native development skills while still delivering a genuinely native feel.
This approach is purpose-built for SaaS platforms like Stridist: products with a strong web foundation that need a mobile presence without rebuilding from the ground up.
