About

KettleForge is an interval timer for kettlebell sport that counts your reps while you lift. Set your rounds of work and rest, prop the phone against a wall, and start. The front camera watches the movement pattern and counts — no wearable, no sensor on the bell, no tapping between sets. COUNTS THE COMPETITION LIFTS Long cycle, jerk and snatch are recognised by the shape of the movement itself, not by a shake or a buzz. Each one has been counted in front of the camera against a real set and checked rep for rep. More lifts are on the way and they are listed in the app, greyed out, so you can see what is coming rather than wondering. Camera missed one? Tap the count and it goes in. START WITHOUT TOUCHING THE PHONE Raise either hand above your head for two seconds and the set begins. The count box pulses and ticks once a second so you know you have been seen — which matters three metres away with a bell in each hand. BUILT TO BE RUN BY EAR Your back is to the phone for most of a set, so the phases are told apart by the shape of the sound and not only by pitch: one soft note into Get Ready, two hard strikes when work begins, a triad left ringing at the end. It sounds through the silent switch, and it ducks your music rather than shouting over it. READ THE SET BACK Every rep is stored with the second it was counted, so a workout is more than a total. Read your pace minute by minute and round by round — because 120 reps in ten minutes can be twelve a minute all the way down, or twenty for five minutes and then nothing, and that difference is the thing you actually train. WHAT YOU SET • Get Ready, work and rest durations, per round • How many rounds • Bell weight and whether you are lifting one or two • How much of the camera feed shows through the phase colour • Whether the camera counts, and whether a raised hand starts the set PRIVACY The camera is read frame by frame and never recorded. Nothing is uploaded, there is no account and no sign-in, and every workout stays on your phone. The privacy label says Data Not Collected because that is the truth. IPHONE AND IPAD One universal app. On iPad the counting works in any orientation, so you can stand it sideways on a bench and it still reads the lift. KETTLEFORGE PRO Progress, pace held, arm balance and goals are part of KettleForge Pro: monthly, yearly with a two-week free trial, or a one-time purchase. Everything you record stays free.

What's New in KettleForge

See where your sets stand in the sport. KettleForge now reads your sets against the rank standards of Russia's unified sports classification — the numbers kettlebell sport is judged by: lifts in ten minutes, per rank, per weight category, with the bells each rank is lifted with. Under any round that reaches one, History says so: "Meets the CMS standard", with the division and weight category it was read in. KettleForge compares; a rank itself is only awarded at competition. To be read, a set needs your sex and bodyweight. Both are in Profile, both optional, and both can come from Apple Health. Profile also shows your weight category, the last standard you met, and Ranks — the whole table to look up by sex, category and bell — with links to the federation's own documents. With Pro: • Progress shows the standards for each lift and bell, ticked where you have met them, and a round that reads against the table shows the next standard and how far away it is. • A goal can be a rank standard. Pick one and the lifts and set length fill in; change them and it becomes your own number again. • Training Report, for your coach: any stretch of dates as a PDF, sized for A4 or US Letter. Every workout, every round, its per-minute counts, the standards met, and each goal with a bar showing how close the best set came. Share it from Progress, or for one workout from History. Share cards now show the standard a round meets. Pro has a home in Profile: your plan and when it renews, Manage Subscription, Restore Purchases, and — for subscribers — a way to switch to Lifetime. If a renewal payment fails, the app says so and shows you how to fix it, rather than just locking. Apple Health: KettleForge no longer writes your weight. It reads your weight and sex, and your copy in the app is the one it uses — Read from Apple Health brings it up to date when you want it to. Everything stays on your phone. Nothing is sent to us.
