## What is kach?

kach is a no-nonsense gym tracker for people who count reps, not followers.
  
  PLAN ANY ROUTINE
  • Start from a proven template or build your own split
  • Name your days, set weight, reps and rest your way
  • 1,200+ exercises, plus your own custom movements
  
  LOG EVERY SET, FAST
  • Sets pre-filled from your plan — tap to confirm
  • Supersets, drop sets, warm-ups and AMRAP, all first-class
  • Swap an exercise if a machine's taken, or add one on the fly
  • Built-in plate calculator for any bar and the plates you own
  
  WATCH YOUR STRENGTH CLIMB
  • Per-exercise history, estimated 1RM trends and personal records
  • Weekly volume, calories and live heart rate
  • Body measurements with progress photos and videos
  
  ON YOUR WRIST
  • Apple Watch companion: current set, rest timer and heart rate
  • Log a full workout without your phone
  
  YOURS, ON YOUR DEVICE

  kach is free to download and use — no subscription. A short ad plays before each workout starts.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.11.0 — 2026-08-30

kach now speaks French, and you can rate the app straight from Settings. Long training histories load much faster, and bodyweight moves like chin-ups and dips log their BW load correctly again.

### 1.10.0 — 2026-08-27

Apple Watch
• Buttons now give you a tap you can feel — including different taps for +15 and −15, so you can adjust rest without looking.
• Changing a rest time on the watch now sticks for the rest of the workout, like it does on the phone.

Fixes
• Ads could stop appearing if the app had been open for a while — they're refreshed properly now.
• Search results in Russian, Spanish and Portuguese now put the exercise you actually searched for first.

### 1.9.2 — 2026-08-25

Apple Watch
• Rest controls (+15 / −15 / Skip) now respond the instant you tap them.
• A logged set no longer gets lost when your phone is out of reach — it syncs as soon as you reconnect.
• Bigger, easier-to-hit buttons on the set and rest screens.

Fixes
• The ad before a workout sometimes didn't appear if you started training right after opening the app.
• The ad screen no longer blocks the rest of the app while it counts down — you can back out at any time.
• Exercise search is much faster to type in.
• The "rest finished" notification shows the weight for your next set again.

Library
• Every exercise now shows start and end position photos.

### 1.9.1 — 2026-08-25

• Auto-progression: kach can suggest your next weight or reps from your own training history, and explain why it picked the number. Off by default — turn it on in Settings.
• Rest timer: when you change the rest between sets, that exercise remembers it.
• Tabs renamed — Today is now Home, Library is now Routines.
• The pre-workout ad screen now has a back button, active once the countdown ends.
• Progress opens noticeably faster on long training histories.
• Fixes: custom cardio and stretching exercises now appear in search; a Language shortcut in Settings; clearer wording when you finish a workout.

### 1.8.0 — 2026-08-15

• New Progress analytics: Body, Volume, Strength and Recovery dashboards
• Home: weekly volume card with trends
• Bodyweight exercises (chin-ups, dips, push-ups) now count your body weight in volume and records — including past workouts
• Smarter muscle mapping for hundreds of exercises
• Import polish for large workout histories, plus bug fixes
