ABOUT THE PROJECT
Swim coaches and atheletes are disconnected between data management, and personalized coaching, and set deliveries. To address this issue, Catherine developed Streamline, an app created primarily for coaches and swimmers to create, schedule, and communicate swim sets. Streamline aims to close the gap between heavy data management and easily readable workouts. The app allows users to designate themselves as coach or swimmer, each choice presents different features and visual design to solve their unique problem.
A wide range of features and functions allow swimmers to do all from reading and learning about sets to actively training with a paired device. Pair with a coach or use the app individually Coaches can use the scheduling tool to create and assign workouts by lane, group, or individual; discover sets or write their own; and a smart device option is available to connect.
