Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: StrengthLog at 3.6K against Gymguru's 3. Gymguru's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and review sentiment (100% vs 89%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. StrengthLog sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $16.90 per month and Gymguru sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for StrengthLog against 5.0 for Gymguru. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: StrengthLog has 3.6K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 89% of StrengthLog's written reviews are positive against 100% of Gymguru's.
StrengthLog ships an update every 2 weeks, Gymguru every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
