### 5/5 — Always keep coming back to this app

*2026-10-21*

It’s very good for logging self planned or gym scheduled workout

### 5/5 — UX is great

*2026-10-13, version 7.1.9*

As a UX designer myself. This is a great example of how to not just good UX but great! Very intentional with each interaction

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-10-07, version 7.1.8*

Great app, $40 well spent

### 5/5 — Great Tracking App

*2026-09-16, version 7.1.5*

Ive used this for years.  It is great.  You can easily track your progress.  Its easy to see your progress in terms of reps and weights.

### 5/5 — Best logging app

*2026-09-13, version 7.1.4*

By far the most intuitive and customizable workout planner and logging app without any bugs

### 1/5 — Не оплатить подписку

*2026-09-11*

Не дает оплатить пожизненную подписку за 1990₽

**Developer response:** Здравствуйте, Максим - спасибо за ваш отзыв.

Небольшое уточнение: «GymBook Pro · Пожизненно» является не подпиской, а разовой покупкой: оплачивается один раз и остаётся у вас навсегда.

Сама оплата полностью обрабатывается Apple, у нас нет доступа ни к платёжным данным, ни к самому платежу. Чаще всего покупка не проходит из-за способа оплаты: в настоящее время Apple не принимает российские банковские карты, поэтому любые покупки внутри приложений с такой картой отклоняются. В этом случае помогает пополнение баланса Apple Account подарочной картой App Store. Покупка тогда списывается с баланса, и привязанная карта не нужна.

Если способ оплаты рабочий, а покупка всё равно не проходит, попробуйте выйти из Apple Account в «Настройках» и войти снова, а затем перезапустить iPhone.

Если это не поможет, напишите нам через «Оставить отзыв» в настройках приложения или на feedback@gymbookapp.com, и мы разберёмся.

### 4/5 — Great fitness tracking app

*2026-08-20, version 7.1.1*

Love the extensive work out collection built in and the ability to track body measurements but does not sync across devices unless you export and import on another device and then back again. Would like to be able to pick up any device and do a workout

### 5/5 — Couldn’t ask for a better workout tracker

*2026-08-02, version 7.1.0*

This app is amazing, first and foremost because it offers an inexpensive payment to unlock everything and get rid of ads. It seems like every single simple app now requires a subscription to make it usable and not bombarded with ads. Aside from that factor, the app is perfect because of all the trending capabilities it has, allowing me to see my progress over time according to various metrics. Everything is intuitive, and as an added bonus I can change the app icon color. One of my favorite and most used apps of all time, hands down.

### 5/5 — Simple and Effective - Great Value

*2026-08-02, version 7.1.0*

I’ve explored a lot of workout apps and digital log books.  This one stands out as being amongst the best of them and five stars plus for being such a great value for so many features. Thank You 🤗

PS: don’t be mislead by my “simple and effective” title. GymBook has a great interface and requires relatively little effort to learn, but it is also a very powerful app and highly customizable - which is definitely one of its best features.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-01, version 7.0.45*

Great app.
