## What is On Lifting?

On Lifting is a fast, private workout log: no account, no ads, no tracking. Most sets take one tap to log, and you can follow your progress in depth.

Key Features
• Private by default. Your data stays on your device and in your own backups. Logging works fully offline.
• Designed for speed: smart defaults and a dedicated keyboard keep logging quick.
• Family Sharing included at no extra cost.

Free to download, no account needed. Your first 10 workouts are free, and imported workouts don't count. Still not sure On Lifting is right for you? Keep going with a free trial: 3 months on the yearly plan or 1 month on the monthly. Cancel anytime. One subscription covers your family through Family Sharing, and your history, charts and exports are always available whether you subscribe or not.

Here's what you get:

Workouts & Routines

Apple Ecosystem
• Apple Watch app mirrors your workout, showing the upcoming exercise, current set target, previous set data, rest time, and more.
• Follow your workout on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.

### 5/5 — Worth the Switch

*2025-11-27*

After losing all of my lifting data from Strong (years and years), I was ready to look at alternatives to the app. That’s when I found On Lifting. It has a solid trial period so you can try it before paying. It’s easy, affordable, and does everything and more that I could do in my other app. If you’re on the fence, it’s worth trying out.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words and for choosing On Lifting for your fresh start.

Losing years of data is a tough break, and we are so sorry that happened. We’re honored to be the app you’re using to rebuild. If you ever manage to secure an export from your previous app, our import tool can bring those logs right into On Lifting.

Please feel free to reach out anytime at support@joyof.dev with questions or suggestions!

### 5/5 — This App is a lifesaver!

*2025-08-20*

Awesome app - really easy to use and very friendly to new lifters. Gives great instruction and guidance to those who don’t know their way around the gym yet. Also provides a very user friendly way to track lifts and document progress!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words! Ease of use is my guiding north, so it’s great to hear you’ve found the app welcoming for new lifters. My goal is to make it simple to get started, while gradually revealing more advanced features like intensity tracking (e.g. Reps in Reserve) as users gain experience.

I’m working on new ways to highlight progress that I hope you’ll find valuable.
