What is the Client Autonomy Feature?
The Client Autonomy feature allows coaches to grant clients the ability to reschedule their own workouts inside the CoachRx mobile app. This promotes client ownership and flexibility while helping them remain consistent with their training program.
**This feature is coach-enabled, meaning it is only active for clients when turned on by their coach.

What It Looks Like in the Client App
Once enabled, your client will see a “Move” button next to each workout in their daily Rx view.

Best Practices
Enable this only after clients demonstrate readiness and understand how to use it responsibly.
Consider pairing with client education around consistency, prioritization, and accountability.
Use your calendar and the “Needs Attention” section to monitor adherence after autonomy is enabled.
