Amazing app!
Fantastic app! So simple, yet so effective! As a beginner, I couldn’t find something that simply tracked my workouts, log them, and customize them. I didn’t feel overwhelmed like some of the other apps do. I’m still trying the free version, but I’ll see how it is in the long term and probably check out the PRO version later on :)

Simplicity at its best
Great workout logging app. It’s incredibly easy to set up and use, making it simple to track your gym workouts and monitor your progress.
The app really comes into its own once you start using the “Programs” feature. Being able to plan and organise an entire 12-month training programme is a huge advantage and makes it much easier to stay consistent.
One of my favourite aspects is the lack of social features. I’ve tried a lot of workout logging apps, and many seem to focus on social integration, which I personally have no interest in. This app stays focused on what matters—logging workouts efficiently.
I hope the developer continues to improve the app without losing its clean, simple, and uncluttered design, which is one of its biggest strengths.
There’s also a companion paper logbook available on Amazon, which is excellent. I use both the app and the paper logbook together. The app includes a feature to scan your paper logbook and import it, but unfortunately I’ve never managed to get that working successfully. Hopefully that’s something that can be improved in a future update.
Overall, this is one of the best workout logging apps I’ve used and one I’d happily recommend.

Great for fitness tracking and training
This is a go to app for fitness logging where I’m concerned !!!!
Organized, easy, and functional
I love this app. It’s been a breeze tracking my progress in lifting. I was weary, only because most of these apps are not as advertised. It’s simple, it works how it’s supposed to and it keeps track of my PR’s. I wish it incorporated more stability workouts but that’s me nitpicking because I’ve finally incorporated more. Oh, it also has Smith-machine on there, not just barbell. Great app.

the best workout logger
really simple and intuitive
Crashes Constantly
This app used to be great. After the recent update (which added a paywall!) the app constantly crashes. Find something else
Response from developer
Hello, and sorry for the late reply. Please update the app to version 2.0.8. In case of problems in the future, please feel free to write to the developer at alex@fitness-logbook.com (this will help to issue a patch much faster). Regarding the "paywall", it did appear in December 2024, and nothing has changed since then.
App Working Again
Some features locked behind pro subscription but I guess everyone needs to make a living!
Amazing Customer Service
I’ve been using this app for quite some time now, I’ve used many many others and this one has by far been the absolute best for simplicity and progress .. I recently switched to pro and did have some issues and within hours after emailing support, bugs were fixed and update solved
I can honestly say keel up the amazing work cause I don’t want to lose this app 😊 Thanks Alex

Terrible upgrade!
I loved this app for a while! My husband and I both used it. No issues, could make as many routines as I need, never cost a dime!! Now they upgraded it. You get 4 free routines, after that it’s $2.99/month. Nope, goodbye. Thanks for the good run, but I’m not paying $25/year to track my workouts. I’ll find another app or just go back to writing it down 👋🏼

Loved it until today
This app was amazing…..until today. Go to train and suddenly have to make an account however all I get is a error message.
Does it’s own thing
Since I turned on Pro, I can’t delete exercises i no longer use and have also deleted my routines so they are not in any and says I still can’t delete.. i want to clean up my workouts for my next 6 week phase. Why can’t I ?
Response from developer
Exercises are used not only in routines (reusable training templates) - but also in workouts you record (what you see in the History tab). So, if you want to "clean up" exercises, remove them from performed workouts first.
Awesome app!
This app is really great in tracking your workouts and helping you set your personal goals! Highly suggest it.
Simple and good app, just not worth a subscription
This app is no longer “free and without ads.” It was awesome when it was because it’s just a simple tracker, nothing fancy. I might’ve paid a one time fee for it but definitely not a subscription. At the moment it doesn’t offer much more use than a piece of paper and a calculator does, so they really better introduce some new features in order to justify a monthly payment model. But personally, I’ll just be finding a new way to keep track of my routines.

I stand corrected
The features I was looking for have been included in the latest update. Best app I’ve found.
Response from developer
Thanks for your feedback. The "Copy As Text" was accidentally disabled and is now available again - please update to v.1.7.8
Shame
FL went from the Best Free fitness app, to one of the bottom tier paid ones because Alex (the dev) sold out.
Why would anyone pay $2 a month for a mediocre app when there are so many better paid ones for the same price?

Response from developer
Thank you for your feedback, but you did not write the main thing - if I "sold out", where can I get my money? :) The app is still free. Yes, there will be some paid functions, but the core features - like recording workouts - are free whether you sign up for a PRO subscription (when it appears). -Alex
Long time users need to be grandfathered in!
I understand that you’re getting greedy and want more revenue, but locking users out of data they’ve accumulated over years is insane. You’re going to lose a lot of goodwill and users
Response from developer
Thanks for your feedback! Access to training data is and will remain free after the PRO subscription appears - that is, you will always be able to see the history of your workouts in the History tab, regardless of whether you have a subscription.
Update is not an improvement
I loved this app and recommended it to others before the update. Now I’m on the hunt for a better one. Get rid of “update to pro” and bring back “copy workout as text”.
Response from developer

Paid only now
Stupid app went to a pro only model so you can’t log your workouts.
Good when it was free
It’s a shame developers got greedy. This was a good app until they went subscription based.
Becoming paid
Took away features I have been using for 1 1/2 years now, and will be putting them behind a pay wall. I loved this app, but now that I’ll have to pay to use features I had access too before for free, I will be looking for something else.
