## What is Rep Up for Watch?

Rep Up is an assistant for your gym workouts. It helps you focus on the movement that you are performing, and the muscles that you are trying to engage. It helps you create that mind muscle connection by removing the need to count your reps.

It's simple and easy to use. Set your goal rep and start your workout, it taps you when It's time to stop. Alternatively, you can set it to tap you every five reps so you don't need to interact with your device at all till your workout is done. It detects when you've stopped and automatically resets the rep count. Since it's designed to tap you can use it in the gym even when there's loud music. 

It counts any exercise with prominent hand movements such as squats, deadlifts, rows, shoulder press, bench press, etc. and even most movements where your hand is stationary, like push-ups, pull-ups, leg raises etc. 

Rep Up is designed for Apple Watch, taking advantage of features like Workout Tracking, Taptic Engine and a powerful processor allowed us to build a truly meaningful experience. You can use Rep Up with iPhone as well but you'll need an armband.

### 1/5 — Flawed design

*2025-11-25, version 2.0.1*

This potentially excellent app is flawed by a feature, which is completely unnecessary. The count resets in some automatic manner more or less randomly. There should be a start button and a stop button. This feature renders the app completely useless. Elimination of this incorrect feature would raise my rating to five.

### 5/5 — Pretty good

*2023-08-18, version 1.4*

Tracks nice, misses some reps but overall love it

### 1/5 — Nie działa na Apple Watch

*2023-07-11, version 1.4*

Nie liczy samo powtórzeń. Bez sensu.

### 3/5 — Just doesn’t work

*2022-06-07, version 1.4*

Review edited after dev reply. I decided to give it 2nd go - ok it does something - it tries to count reps but it does it inaccurately.You have to do sweeping moves with your hand to read it as a rep and even doing so app miss few reps. So it is not possible to use it efficiently on the gym.

### 1/5 — Didn’t work.

*2021-10-25, version 1.4*

Sorry. But the app didn’t work well. It didn’t tap me and it did not pass a count of 4.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2021-10-05, version 1.4*

No point even explaining. Don’t bother downloading.

### 1/5 — Don’t Bother, doesn’t even work

*2021-07-10, version 1.3.9*

Downloads this app and opened it on the Apple Watch. It asks you to open the iPhone app so it can connect but never connects and got stuck on the start screen. 

Waste of time and data. Save you time and look elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Won’t unlock on my watch.

*2021-05-21, version 1.3.9*

I downloaded this for my Apple Watch and says to “open the iPhone app and tap here”. I’ve tapped with my finger and with the phone itself and nothing will unlock the app on my watch. I handed no orders why the so that counts reps needs to be locked at all, but for this reason, I haven’t been able to try it. As far as I know, it doesn’t work.

### 4/5 — Great start! But this feature is needed!

*2021-02-21, version 1.3.9*

I love how this app says what it can do and does it well. Some weight exercises work better than others for this app, and there are times it over counts or under counts. But for the most part it’s pretty accurate. There’s this one element I wish the developers would add to make this the ultimate weight rep app, and that would be to add a customizable interval timer that vibrates when it’s time for the next rep set. Accurate rep time matters in weight training as it accounts for whether you're aiming to develop muscle strength, hypertrophy, or strength endurance. Even better would be an alert/vibration for when your heart rate drops 60% of your maximum heart rate, as that’s even more accurate (but probably harder to implement) to measure time between sets. Anyway, those are my suggestions!

Thank you for making this app, as I enjoy it developers!

Best,

A personal trainer in training.

### 1/5 — Not a accurate at all

*2021-02-19, version 1.3.9*

Doesn’t count reps accurately. Waste of time!
