Can’t use it anymore

I used this app for +5 years. I tried recently and I couldn’t login without paying for a subscription. I started the trial but all my progress and history is lost so I decided to delete it and use another one.

USED to be good, paywalled everything

I’ve been using this app since 2016. It used to be completely free and was very simple but worked well. Over the years they have added some features like being able to modify your workouts away from 5x5.
When they introduced the premium version, I was given what they called “lifetime power pack” which gave me the ability to still access the normal features of the app like warm-up sets and being able to change sets/rep ranges.

As of June 2026, they have paywalled almost the entire app at a price of $80 a year!!! Insane price if you ask me for an app that simply tracks your workouts.
You can no longer manipulate workouts for free or use the warm-up set feature, nor even see the plates to put on each side of your bar.

I will be moving on to one of the many free options available. Sad to see for an app I used to love.

Frustratingly inconsistent and buggy on Apple Watch

Great features and functionality but super inconsistent and buggy on the Apple Watch.

Unable to restore previous purchase

Subscription popups give early 2000’s internet vibes. If your product isn’t worth paying for, move on, don’t scam people.

Removed 'lifetime' features

As an early supporter of the app, I paid for 'lifetime' pro membership on both Android and iOS. These features have since been locked behind a subscription with no explanation. Poor business ethics. I would rather subscribe to Strong or Hevy than support this app and developer after this.
