### 3/5 — Good but made me pay twice for membership

*2026-04-26, version 2.2.11*

Had this app for many years but once it got reworked I was forced to pay the lifetime membership again. If I get a refund I will edit review to 5-stars.

### 2/5 — Latest update is buggy

*2024-04-29, version 1.41.5*

The latest update crashes between sets. Pls fix!

### 4/5 — No trial

*2024-01-25, version 1.39.0*

Searching for exactly this, sadly every single feature is locked by subscription. At least allow one free exercise and one free workout plan so I can see how the features work and if I like it before I pay... now I'm thinking maybe going with another app instead even though this one seems to have everything I'd want. But Apple doesn't refund purchased apps as easily as years ago so I have to be sure first.

### 3/5 — Can’t use on my other device

*2024-01-21*

I really like the app, but I’ve paid for this from my IPad and I tried to use my account on my IPhone and I can’t find how can I do this. Is it possible?

**Developer response:** Hi,
Yes, you can use this app from your other devices. To do so, please download the app on your iphone, open it and go to settings tab on app. Then tap on paywall and scroll to the bottom of the screen. You will find a "Restore Purchase" button. That's it. If you still have queries, please reach out to us at gymdiaryios@gmail.com

### 2/5 — Can only use app effectively if you buy premium

*2023-09-02, version 1.36.0*

I’ve been using this app since 2020 and have had no issues, however, recently in order to use the app efficiently you have to buy premium. You’re unable to create exercises which aren’t within the small list provided by the app and you’re unable to make notes or see previous PBs without paying for premium. I understand up-selling certain features but the app has now become an app which you’re unable to utilise as a gym diary without paying for basic amenities which should otherwise come with the app. It’s a shame as it has almost 3 years worth of my gym history but I’ve since downloaded a better gym diary app.

### 2/5 — Extremely Basic

*2023-01-31, version 1.31.0*

Very basic. Not worth paying for. Just make a spreadsheet to track your weights.

### 5/5 — Simple format - add your own exercises

*2022-09-04, version 1.24.0*

I love that I can add my own exercises. It would be nice to be able to edit them without deleting and have to enter all over. I placed one in the wrong category and would like to place it in the correct one. A separate notes tab would be awesome. (There is a note feature within a specific exercise) Overall I got the subscription to this app bc it’s simple and user friendly. I’ve tried many others and wasn’t happy. I’m new to weights, machines, etc and this is perfect! Also love that I can track my weight and measurements! You can also change the order in which your personal exercises are listed. You can sort based on what part of the body you want to focus on or even make them by days of the week for a routine. Awesome app, keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Simple way to keep track of your progress

*2022-05-22, version 1.21.0*

The Gym diary app does exactly what I need: it keeps track on your progress in gym. 

In a simple way you choose one of preset exercise and type down how many reps you’ve done and what weight did you use. 

Or you can add any custom exercise if it is missing from the list

You can even create workout plans. 

I like the way the app constantly improves with time. The author must be a gym freak!

### 5/5 — Organize

*2022-03-30, version 1.20.1*

I finally found the app for me I got so tired of constantly writing different workouts and not being able to keep up with them in one place this helps you keep up with everything body measurements, calorie intake, more importantly your workout routine. I love it !!

### 5/5 — Great App for Gym Workout Tracking

*2022-02-11, version 1.19.0*

Tried a bunch of gym diary apps and this one is the best, highly recommend

### 4/5 — A great all-round gym diary

*2022-01-24, version 1.17.2*

*Disclaimer that I use the Pro version*

I love this app! It can be fiddly at times, especially when it comes to ordering of exercises in workouts and workout drafts, but otherwise I have used it for about 2 and a half years now and have had no thoughts about moving away from it.
The addition of exercises and creation of workout plans is simple enough to follow, with flexibility of removing workouts mid exercise to substitute with others.
Only gripe is sometimes having to wrestle with the UI, but the constant improvements made by the developer give me faith that the wrinkles will be ironed out.

### 3/5 — Going bad

*2021-12-02, version 1.16.0*

Hey, untill yesterday I could see the history of my exercises (weight and reps), now suddently you make it a Premium feature…that’s not nice! I will look for some other app even I use it for more then one year…

### 5/5 — genders

*2021-07-05, version 1.11.0*

i just wanna say having ninja mutant turtle over “other” is a 10/10 in my books i love that considering my pronouns are she/they

### 4/5 — Apple Watch App needed

*2021-05-19, version 1.10.0*

Works well and it’s easy to use.

All that’s needed now in an app for the Apple Watch! 🤞😄

### 5/5 — Great for beginners!

*2020-11-18, version 1.6.1*

It is very organized and easy , even without the premium. Definitely worth downloading it has helped me with keeping track of my weights and everything.

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2020-08-22, version 1.5.0*

Started good but soon came to learn it doesn’t have all exercises and they love an ad video which is very annoying when trying to workout

### 1/5 — Paywall

*2024-09-15, version 2.0.1*

You can't even look at the app without being asked to purcharse the premium version..

### 1/5 — Updates are poor

*2024-02-27, version 1.41.1*

Just about done with this app. Every time there is an update there are always glitches. This time around every time you either switch to another app or screen lock comes on then app freezes and data is lost.
Am seriously over how many bugs this app consistently has

### 1/5 — Was good, not anymore.

*2021-11-13, version 1.15.0*

Limited features now, requires subscription to be any use.

### 1/5 — Poor

*2020-05-02, version 1.3.6*

When adding workouts to a plan, be prepared to see a completely different workout than the one you selected appear on your chosen day! 🤷‍♂️

### 1/5 — Won’t save my sets

*2020-02-27, version 1.3.6*

I just got this app today and paid for no ads and the dark version. I get into my second sets and go to log them and the app never tracked my firsts sets. I tried to do it all over again and it didn’t save them after I hit the save button and the check mark. I’m going back to manually writing my lifts down. I hope I can restore my purchase as well...

### 1/5 — Bugs doesn’t save workouts correctly

*2020-02-23, version 1.3.6*

This app has a bug where it doesn’t save workouts correctly. If you add a new exercise to a workout it will typically mirror the name of an exercise already in the workout. Also when you delete and re download the app it doesn’t save your data.

### 1/5 — Would be great if it worked

*2019-12-06, version 1.3.6*

Couldn’t log weight or reps to any workout. App wouldn’t recognize any entry.

### 1/5 — App closes when making new exercise

*2019-11-09, version 1.3.6*

Only a few exercises listed and if you create a new one it just keeps closing the app. Shame.

### 1/5 — Good

*2019-07-19, version 1.3.4*

Good

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2019-05-26, version 1.3.4*

Just downloaded this and it’s unbelievably bad. Trying to create my first routine and I now have two routines with the same name and can’t add an exercise to either one of them. I am not technologically illiterate, this is NOT my first rodeo. Seriously, it should not be this frustrating to get an exercise logger up and running.

### 5/5 — Worth the premium plan

*2024-11-03, version 2.1.1*

I tried many workout app before and this is the one that I stick with. The ui is simple and easy to use. You can make your own workout routine too. I wish there was a watch app though.

### 5/5 — Useful app

*2024-08-12, version 2.0.0*

It allows me to create my desired work plans and help me to track easily.

### 5/5 — Absolutely love this app

*2024-05-30, version 1.42.0*

This app has helped me a lot in my fitness journey. The workout tracking is superb. I can easily log my exercises, sets and reps and even track my progress  with detailed charts and graph. Its so satisfying to see the improvement over time. 

Also the apps design is sleek and very user friendly. No glitches, no crashes- just a smooth and reliable experience every time. 

I would absolutely recommend this app to anyone who is in the fitness journey.

### 5/5 — Also..

### 5/5 — Very simple app

*2024-01-27*
