  "account": "SmartGym has released its most comprehensive update yet, introducing AI-powered workout creation and enhanced Siri integration. The app, an Apple Design Award winner, now offers SmartGym Intelligence, a private cloud compute system that allows users to create workouts using natural language. Users can input commands like \"create a push-pull-legs workout with 10 exercises per day, avoid bench press, include 2 warm-up exercises,\" and SmartGym will generate a tailored routine. Subsequent tweaks, such as changing the day for leg day or removing exercises, can be made through further prompts. SmartGym 8 also enhances Siri's capabilities, allowing users to access workout information, start sessions, and ask questions about their routines directly using voice commands. The integration extends to answering specific questions about a user's heart rates or showing relevant workouts during a Siri session. Additionally, the update supports on-screen awareness, enabling users to ask Siri to identify and interact with elements on their screen during gym sessions. SmartGym 8 is available for free on the App Store with various subscription options.",
