### 5/5 — Best minimalistic workout tracker

*2025-09-22, version 4.0.7*

The title says it all…
And it‘s even completely free!
Such a good app and an exception to all these overloaded, overcomplified trackers which are defenitely not worth their money.

10/10 or 5⭐️/5⭐️ 

Will recommend it to my homies

### 5/5 — Still using after 3 years!

*2025-09-21, version 4.0.7*

Still using this app after three years. Left a review when I first got it suggesting some possible features and they were implemented. Since then there have been many incremental improvements. Love this app, it is free, has a nice sleek UI and works well.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2025-05-19, version 4.0.5*

Great App! Has everything you need for your strength training and gives you useful statistics on top.
A great addition would be a cardio category to better log cardio training.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2025-05-17, version 4.0.5*

Perfect for tracking workouts. I would add the option for additional notes next to each set to incorporate drop sets, supersets or partials. Additionally a section for cardio exercises with minute counts would prove helpful.

### 5/5 — All that you can ask for!

*2024-12-05, version 4.0.4*

I love this app to its core! Very minimal and functional! It he only thing that I wish for is the ability to send the timer to the background and get a notification / ringer when the timer expires! Else this is perfect!

### 5/5 — Encantado

*2024-09-13*

Me ha encantado la aplicación. Sencilla pero super útil. Daré mi agradecimiento porque es justo lo que necesitaba. Sigan desarrollando mas

**Developer response:** ¡Muchas gracias por tus amables palabras!

### 5/5 — Simple, yet effective

*2024-04-27, version 4.0.1*

Thank you for this useful companion since 2019. This app is actually better than most paid apps. Tracking is straight forward, some simple statistics (P.S. I‘d love some more stats) and workout library. Fantastic!

### 5/5 — Simplest & Most Convenient Workout Logger

*2024-01-19, version 3.0.7*

East app to use. Been using for 3 years. No complains.

### 5/5 — Best workout tracking app

*2023-12-19, version 3.0.7*

This is the single greatest workout app it’s a mix of features you normally have to pay for there are only donations. No other in app purchases. Very grateful to the creator, thank you!

### 4/5 — Great App, one suggestion.

*2023-12-10, version 3.0.7*

If the timer could keep going in the background when you have to leave the app to switch songs etc.  This app would be perfect!
