Reel Motion is an iOS app that turns workout videos into routines you can follow step by step. Paste a link from YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok and it pulls out the exercises, drawing an illustrated start and finish position for every move. Instead of pausing and rewinding mid-set, you follow one exercise at a time with timers and a coach reading each step aloud.

It runs on iPhone and iPad, so your device can sit on a stand or the floor while you train, and finished workouts write straight to Apple Health.
