Frequently asked questions
EDGE Athlete OS
EDGE Athlete OS is a five-minute daily mental training app for competitive athletes. Below are the questions we get asked most: what it does, what it costs, what you need to run it, and how the coaching works.
What is EDGE Athlete OS?
EDGE Athlete OS is an iOS app that trains the mental side of your game the way you already train the physical side. Each day it walks you through a five-minute ritual built from four phases and eight short steps: you check in on your state, rewrite the way you talk to yourself, rehearse the performance you want, and commit to one focus for the day. It also includes a pregame lock-in routine for competition days, guided recovery, and an end-of-day debrief. On the App Store it is listed as Edge OS.
Who is EDGE for?
Competitive athletes who already put in the physical work and know the remaining gap is mental. It is built for high school, college, club and adult competitors in both individual and team sports. Coaches use it to give a team one shared daily routine, and parents often buy it for an athlete dealing with nerves, a confidence dip or a slump.
How much does EDGE cost?
EDGE is free to download and your first week is free. After the trial, plans are $4.99 per week, $12.99 per month, or $89.99 per year. Billing is handled by Apple through your Apple ID, and you can cancel any time.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. The first week is free. If you cancel before the trial ends you are not charged. After the trial, the plan you picked renews automatically until you cancel it.
What do I need to use EDGE?
An iPhone running iOS 15.1 or later. EDGE can also read recovery and readiness signals from Apple Health, including data recorded by an Apple Watch, so your daily check-in reflects how you actually slept and trained.
How long does the daily ritual take?
About five minutes. The ritual is four phases and eight short steps, designed to be done once a day, every day. The point is repetition: a short session you actually come back to beats a long one you abandon by week two.
How does the coach know my sport?
You set your sport, position, level and goals when you start, and the coach carries them into everything it gives you. It also remembers your past sessions and reflections, so guidance builds on what you said last week instead of starting from zero every time. The more you show up, the more specific it gets.
Which sports does EDGE support?
EDGE adapts rather than shipping a fixed list. You set your sport and position during setup, and the visualization, cue words and coaching are tuned to them. The underlying skills, which are focus, composure, confidence and recovery, carry across individual and team sports.
What is the EDGE Score?
The EDGE Score is a daily readiness number built from how you check in across mind, body and motivation. It is not a grade on you as an athlete. It tells today's session what to emphasize, and over time it shows you the patterns in when you tend to show up flat.
What is Pregame Lock-In?
A short routine you run in the last few minutes before you compete. It settles your nervous system, narrows your attention onto a few cues, and has you rehearse the result you want, so you walk in already decided instead of negotiating with your nerves.
Is EDGE therapy or a replacement for a sports psychologist?
No. EDGE is a training tool, not medical or mental health care, and it is not a substitute for a licensed clinician or a certified mental performance consultant. It is built for performance, not treatment. If you are struggling with your mental health, please talk to a qualified professional.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Subscriptions are managed by Apple, not by us. On your iPhone open Settings, tap your name, tap Subscriptions, select EDGE, and cancel there. Cancelling stops the next renewal and you keep access until the current period ends. Refund requests go through Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com.
Is what I write in EDGE private?
Your reflections are treated as confidential and are used to personalize your coaching. The privacy policy sets out exactly what is collected, who processes it, and the choices you have, including how to request deletion.
Is there an Android version?
Not yet. EDGE is iPhone only right now.
