Question 1

What is Streamline?

Accepted Answer

Streamline is a swimming training app designed for casual fitness swimmers. It features the Deck to 1k program, which uses proven Couch to 5k methodology to take you from your first lap to swimming 1,000 meters continuously. The app includes Apple Watch integration, native iOS design, and beginner-friendly pacing with built-in rest intervals. Future updates will add additional programs and features.

Question 2

What is the Deck to 1k program?

Accepted Answer

Deck to 1k is Streamline's flagship training program that takes you from swimming your first lap to completing 1,000 meters continuously. Like Couch to 5k for running, it uses progressive methodology with structured workouts, gradual increases in distance, and built-in rest intervals over a 13-week period.

Question 3

How is Streamline different from other swimming apps?

Accepted Answer

Streamline is specifically designed for beginner and casual fitness swimmers, not competitive athletes. It features the proven Couch to 5k progressive training methodology adapted for swimming, seamless Apple Watch and Apple Fitness integration, and structured workouts with automatic rest intervals. The minimalist design using Apple's Liquid Glass aesthetic makes it intuitive and beautiful to use.

Question 4

Do I need an Apple Watch to use Streamline?

Accepted Answer

While Streamline works on iPhone alone, an Apple Watch enhances the experience significantly. The watch provides in-pool tracking, haptic feedback for intervals, real-time metrics, and automatic syncing to Apple Fitness. You can use the iPhone app without a watch, but we recommend pairing it with an Apple Watch Series 2 or later for the best experience.

Question 5

How long does the Deck to 1k program take?

Accepted Answer

The Deck to 1k program is designed as a 13-week progressive training plan. For most beginners completing the program, swimming 1,000 meters continuously takes between 25-40 minutes by the end. The program gradually builds your endurance with structured workouts that increase in difficulty each week.

Question 6

Is Streamline suitable for complete beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Streamline and the Deck to 1k program are designed for anyone who can swim at least one lap but wants to build endurance and swim longer distances. Whether you're returning to the pool after years away, looking to add swimming to your fitness routine, or never had structured training, the program starts where you are and progresses gradually. Important: This program is designed for swimmers who can already complete at least one length of their pool comfortably. If you're not yet able to swim a full lap, we strongly encourage you to sign up for swim lessons and prioritize water safety first. Once you can swim one lap with confidence, you'll be ready to start building your endurance with Deck to 1k!

Question 7

What do I need to complete the program?

Accepted Answer

The Deck to 1k program is designed to work in any size pool with no additional equipment required. All you need is a swimsuit, swim cap, and goggles (if desired), plus access to a pool where you can swim laps.

Question 8

Does Streamline integrate with Apple Fitness and Apple Health?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Streamline seamlessly integrates with Apple Fitness and Apple Health. All your swimming workouts automatically sync to close your Activity Rings, contribute to your fitness trends, and appear in your workout history. The app uses Apple's native workout APIs for accurate tracking and data synchronization.

Question 9

Will Streamline have more programs beyond Deck to 1k?

Yes! While Streamline launches with the Deck to 1k program, we're planning to add additional training programs, workout types, and features in future updates. Join our waitlist to stay informed about new programs and features as they're released.
