Camera cardio · No equipment

Move. Burn. Glow.

NeonBurn turns your iPhone or iPad into a cardio coach. Prop it up, step back and move: the camera counts every rep, you see yourself as a neon skeleton, and the calories add up live on screen.

  • iPhone & iPad
  • 17 standing moves
  • Apple Health
  • 7 languages
  • No ads, no tracking

Your camera is the trainer.

No watch, no mat, no dumbbells. Just you, a little floor space and your phone.

1

Prop it up

Lean your iPhone or iPad at waist height, portrait or landscape, and step back until your whole body is in the picture.

2

Raise both hands

A voice tells you when to stand still and when to start. Raise both hands and the countdown begins. No tapping with sweaty fingers.

3

Move and burn

Follow the moving guide in the corner. Every rep is counted, combos stack up and the calorie counter climbs as you go.

NeonBurn home screen: today's burn ring, workout lengths of 5, 10 and 20 minutes or Endless, and a Start button with the expected calories.

17 standing cardio moves.

Everything happens on your feet, so no floor work and no push-ups. Each move has its own animated guide, and the counter only moves for full reps.

Feels like a game. Burns like cardio.

  • Combos and shouts. Keep the reps coming and the rep sound climbs, then Great!, Amazing!, Legendary! burst onto the screen.
  • Your pace or the beat. Work at your own pace, follow the rhythm one rep per beat, or mix both. Synthwave music is generated to match the tempo.
  • Any length. 5, 10 or 20 minutes, Endless mode that keeps speeding up, or your own length from 5 to 60 minutes.
  • Sets your way. Count reps, go for time, or alternate, with running in place between sets to keep your heart rate up.
  • A voice coach. Clear spoken cues for setup, every set and the last few reps, in your language.
  • Big screen ready. Mirror to your TV with AirPlay and the workout fills the screen when you turn the phone sideways.
NeonBurn stats: goal rings for active calories, minutes and days, totals for today, this week, this month and this year, and a daily chart against the goal.

Watch your burn add up.

  • Goal rings for active calories, active minutes and active days.
  • Daily, weekly, monthly and yearly totals, each with its own detailed view.
  • Charts that tell a story: the month's climb, when you train, your best days and your move mix.
  • Streaks and personal bests, with a big moment when you beat your record mid-workout.
  • Apple Health: every workout is saved as Mixed Cardio with its active calories, so it counts toward your rings.
  • Share your progress as a story-sized neon card for Instagram or TikTok.

Private by design.

The camera picture is analysed on your device to find your joints. It is never saved, never uploaded and never shared.

On-device only

Pose detection runs on the iPhone or iPad itself. There is no NeonBurn server and no account to create.

No ads, no tracking

No advertising, no analytics and no third-party SDKs. Your workouts stay on your device and in Apple Health if you allow it.

Honest calories

Active calories are estimated from each move's intensity, your pace and your body data, the same way Apple's Move ring counts them.

Free to start. Pro to go all in.
