No sign-up, syncs across your devices - Apple Watch-first workout logging - Planned routines with sets, rep ranges, rest timers, and target RIR - Fast exercise replacement when equipment is taken - Warmups, drop sets, rest-pause work, and failure finishers - Cardio and conditioning logged separately, never counted as hypertrophy volume - Weekly hard-set volume by muscle - Workout review, notes, and history - Custom exercises for your own movements - Optional Apple Health workout saving with your permission Try RIRLift with a limited free plan.

It’s kinda like Built without the feed and option to take pictures of you to track your progress, but that’s fine by me, you don’t have to do too much if you got all you need. Besides I can see this app becoming better as time goes on. I just hope I don’t lose my Lifetime Pro when they have to change it to monthly and annual 😭 **Developer response:** Thanks! This made our day. To put your mind at ease: Lifetime Pro is permanent. It's a one-time purchase tied to your Apple ID, so it stays yours and restores on any device you sign into, whatever the plan lineup looks like later. And the thing you're worried about has already happened: monthly and yearly went live a few days ago, and Lifetime is still right there alongside them. We added them so people can try Pro properly before committing to anything, not to replace the one-time option. Nothing about your unlock changed. Progress photos noted, thank you. Plenty more features coming! ### 5/5 — Great Tracker *2026-07-19* Built for real lifters and is so useful for tracking workouts in my Apple Watch ### 5/5 — Chinese please👏🏻😻 *2026-07-15* Chinese please👏🏻😻 **Developer response:** Thanks for your review! An initial Simplified Chinese translation is coming next update! ### 5/5 — The best *2026-07-13* This is the best app for workouts ## Frequently asked questions about RIRLift ### What is RIRLift?

New • Body measurements — a free section on Progress for bodyweight, body fat and thirteen circumference sites, each with its own history. Values are stored canonically, so switching between kg and lb rewrites the display and never the record • Cardio in your generated plan — onboarding asks what the cardio is for, then places one timed bout per session: easy as a warm-up or a cool-down, tempo as a finisher. It still earns no hypertrophy credit, so your per-muscle volume stays honest • Effort targets for conditioning — prescribe easy, steady, tempo, hard or maximal on a cardio block, and enter your max heart rate in Settings to see the beats-per-minute band each one asks for during the bout • Hold targets for timed work — plan a hold in the routine editor and the session shows it on the ring and the set chip instead of guessing from your last bout. Tap the clock mid-set to set the time directly Improved • Log each lift in the unit printed on it — a kg machine and a pair of lb dumbbells can now sit in the same session • What's New arrives in the app: a card on your Dashboard after each update, so a new feature is no longer something you have to go and find • Onboarding asks about session reminders itself before iOS does, so tapping "not now" no longer closes that door permanently Fixed • Duplicating a routine no longer wipes the timed targets inside it • Repeating a set works again on exercises outside an intensity-technique slot • Import problems are explained in your language instead of English ### 3.6 — 2026-08-17 Your workout screen now shows the whole plan, not just the next set: what you've logged, the set you're on, and every set still ahead with its target. New • Cardio and conditioning — 45 exercises, from treadmill, rower and ski erg to jump rope, battle ropes, sled pushes and burpees. Logged like any other work, and kept out of your hard-set volume, so what each muscle actually got stays honest • Conditioning in Progress: minutes per week, your most-used movements, and — after a few timed sessions with your watch — average heart rate measured inside the bout instead of across the whole session • Repeat a set from your Lock Screen — one tap logs the same load, reps and RIR, without unlocking your phone Improved • Rest takes over the screen while it runs, then follows you up into the navigation bar — and, with notifications allowed, tells you when it's over even with your phone face down • Auto-advance names the exercise it moved you to, and leaving planned sets behind is now a deliberate tap instead of a silent one • Apple Watch buttons read cleanly in every language, down to the smallest watch Fixed • Rest no longer offers to skip a countdown that has already finished • The workout menu is back on exercises that show heart rate • Purchase problems are explained in your language instead of English ### 3.5 — 2026-08-11 • Rest timer on your Lock Screen: finish a set and the rest countdown appears in the Dynamic Island and on your Lock Screen — check it at a glance without opening the app, even when the workout is running on Apple Watch • Gym equipment, editable anytime: update what your gym has in Settings › Training, and keep your current equipment when you generate a new program • Plan in your browser: build a full program at app.rirlift.com on any computer and import it into the app — and share a program with anyone through a link Plus fixes and polish throughout. ### 3.4 — 2026-07-22 • Connect your AI: link Claude or ChatGPT to RIRLift — it can read your training history, answer questions about your progress, and build a program that imports straight into the app • Ask your AI: prompt packs that bundle your training data for any AI assistant, even ones that can't read files • Gym equipment: pick exactly what your gym has in a new visual picker — your program and exercise swaps stay realistic • Exercise library: 195 new illustrated movements, nearly doubling the library to 437 • Workout length: choose Quick, Standard, or Long during setup and your plan trims or grows to fit Plus fixes and polish throughout — and RIRLift now speaks British English and Traditional Chinese. ### 3.3 — 2026-07-16 • Apple Health sync: workouts you finish on your iPhone now save to Apple Health, each exercise as its own segment — turn on “Save workouts to Apple Health” in Settings • Send feedback: tell us what's working and what isn't, right from Settings → Send feedback Plus fixes for Apple Health permissions and duplicate workouts on iPhone + Apple Watch setups. ## More apps by Scribelet - [Scribelet: AI Notebook](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/scribelet-ai-notebook/id6762544406) - [CruisePrep: Packing List](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/cruiseprep-packing-list/id6780515432) All apps by Scribelet: https://appshunter.io/developer/1894614631 ## Related topics [hypertrophy gym](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/hypertrophy-gym) · [hypertrophyai](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/hypertrophyai) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
