What is Toga?
Toga is an AI-powered running app for iPhone from Toga Performance, Inc. It builds a week-by-week plan from your goal race, your running background, your injuries and how your week actually works, then keeps changing that plan as you train. The pitch leans on the weeks that don't go to plan: a missed run, a cold, a niggle, or paces you're beating.
The app reached the App Store in February 2026 and gets frequent updates. Version 1.0.36 came out on November 1, 2026.
Key Features
Plans that move
Onboarding asks about your race and goal time, how many days you can run, which day suits the long run and how many hard sessions you want. If you already use a watch, Toga reads your recent history so the plan starts where you are. Plans go from the mile to the marathon, in phases for base, speed and race preparation, with easy runs, long runs and paced workouts. The plan is re-evaluated every week from what you actually did.
Feedback after every run
Toga compares each run with what was planned, looking at effort, workout type, laps and splits and heart rate, and writes you feedback on the session along with whether you're on track for your goal.
A coach to message
The chat coach knows your plan and recent runs. It can move workouts, scale a week down or up and answer training questions, including race strategy. It runs on Google Gemini models, and the privacy policy says your data isn't used to train them.
Injury and strength work
You log aches as they come up and Toga tracks the pain trend, adjusts training when something flares and sets prehab exercises. Strength routines are built in and fit the equipment you have. There are also dedicated programs for coming back from injury.
What comes in from Strava
Connect Strava once and your runs sync into Toga on their own. The privacy policy says it may receive GPS location, distance, time, pace, cadence, heart rate and related statistics, depending on the permissions you grant. Garmin, Coros, Polar, Apple Health, TrainingPeaks and Final Surge can feed it too. The only sending Toga documents is to watches: a workout or a full week can go to a Garmin, Coros or Apple Watch, with the Apple Watch part marked beta. Nothing on Toga's pages describes it writing to your Strava account, and they don't list the permissions it requests from Strava.
Who It's For
- Runners who keep getting hurt and want the plan to react when they log a sore calf
- People training for a race from a mile to a marathon who'd rather talk changes through than adjust settings
- Runners whose runs already land on Strava, since Strava can be the source instead of a watch connection
- Runners who want strength and prehab in the same plan as the mileage
What it doesn't do
It's iOS only for now. Toga's site says an Android app is in development, with no date. It's a subscription after the trial, with no free tier for the coach or plan updates.
Toga's site lists distances from the mile to the marathon, and no page we read mentions ultras. Toga also isn't a medical provider, and its terms say the coach's output shouldn't be relied on as medical advice, which matters more than usual in an app that tracks injuries.
How does the free trial work?
You start the 14-day trial from the App Store, and the subscription begins when it ends unless you cancel at least 24 hours before. Cancelling is done in your iPhone's subscription settings, and refunds go through Apple.
What happens to my data if I disconnect a device?
The privacy policy says disconnecting stops AI processing of that device's data, and that on request Toga will delete the activity data it imported from it. Deleting your account from Settings removes all your data, by the site's FAQ.
Is Toga Cheer part of the subscription?
No. Toga Cheer is a free web page for one runner and one race, where friends and family leave messages, photos and voice notes. It doesn't need the app, an account or a subscription.
