## What is Riker?

Track your strength with Riker.  Riker lets you track your reps during your strength training workouts.  Search or drill-down to find your movement and variant (e.g., bench press with dumbbells), and simply enter the weight used and the number of reps.  You can also indicate if you went to failure or not. 

Riker will also keep track of your rest time spent between sets automatically.

In addition to tracking your sets, Riker lets you track relevant body measurements, including your arm size, chest size, calf size and more.

Plenty of charts are provided to track your progress.  Riker provides charts to track your weight lifted over time, your rep count over time and your time spent between sets over time.  Pie charts are provided to give you an aggregate view of these metrics.

Riker's Apple Watch app allows you to input your sets and body measurements with ease.

Riker integrates with Apple's Health app.  The sets you record are saved as strength training workouts in Apple Health.  Any body weight measurements you record in Riker will also be saved in Apple's Health app.

Forget to bring your iPhone to the gym?  Riker's Apple Watch app works just fine untethered from your iPhone enabling it to work perfectly when your iPhone is unreachable.  Riker will save your sets and body measurement logs locally to your Apple Watch, and later you can bulk-sync them to your iPhone.

Want to import your Riker data into your favorite spreadsheet program?  Riker has an export function to extract your sets and body measurement log data to CSV files.  There's also an import function so you can restore your data to a new device.  It's your data.  You'll always be in full control of your data with Riker.

### 3/5 — very useful, one rather annoying bug

*2025-01-17*

1/17/2025 Update - still experiencing black screen during workouts where I have to force close and restart. Please fix that and sync with Apple health/Strava and you’ll get 5 stars!

Original review - I really enjoy using this to track my workouts and it does quite well to do just that. UI is clean and straightforward. That being said if you are tracking a workout and you switch between Riker and another watch app the Riker app will crash (screen goes black with no ability to interact with the Riker app) which requires you to force close the app and open it again. You have to reopen the Riker app and navigate back to the workout / exercise you were performing. If this bug didn’t exist it would definitely earn a 5-star rating.

### 5/5 — Love the app (please read)

*2024-04-24*

Use this app loads. Recently having trouble (after new watch update) with it not staying open and having to go back through the set selection to keep recording workout.

Many thanks for the app. Perfect otherwise!

### 4/5 — Almost exactly what I need

*2023-04-11*

I would really appreciate the ability to look at the sets inside each workout, and also a better way to track progressive overload by saving the most recent weight lifted for a given exercise. Really good app otherwise!

### 5/5 — Love it

The UI on this app isn’t the prettiest but the functionality of it is excellent. It work’s excellent on my apple watch so I can log my workouts quickly. It’s free too so definitely download it.
