Most fitness apps chase step counts. Physical tracks what actually moves your health: the weekly aerobic minutes and strength days from national physical activity guidelines, personalized to you. Your dashboard shows two simple rings, aerobic and strength, tailored to your age and profile. Every walk, run, and lift you log in Apple Health counts automatically. WHAT YOU GET - Guideline-based targets. Weekly goals from the 2018 U.S. Physical Activity Guidelines, not a generic 10k steps. - Vitals. See your VO2 max, leg press to bodyweight, and waist to height, each ranked into four zones, so you know what to work on first. - Coach mode. An optional weekly plan built around your lowest vital, with suggested strength weights and interval cues on Apple Watch. - Live heart-rate zones. Color-coded intensity on iPhone and Apple Watch, so you know when you are working hard enough. - Workout goals. Aim for a time, calorie, or distance target, with a wrist buzz at the halfway point and the finish. - Start with Siri. Say "Hey Siri, let's get Physical" to begin a workout or a saved routine by voice, plus Shortcuts and Spotlight support. - Start fast. Use the Action Button on iPhone and Apple Watch, or long-press the app icon for quick actions. - Outdoor GPS. Live distance, pace, and route mapping for outdoor walks, runs, hikes, and rides on Apple Watch. - Music controls. Play, pause, and skip right from the workout screen, without leaving the app. - Strength logging. Log sessions on iPhone or Apple Watch with muscle-group coverage, weekly sets by movement, and your own saved routines. - Widget, complication, and Smart Stack. Your rings at a glance on the Home Screen and watch face, and live during workouts. - Live Activity. Heart rate and intensity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island during a workout. - Share your week. Turn your two rings into an image you can post anywhere. - Export your data. Send your logged workouts to CSV anytime from Settings. - Nothing slips by. Get a heads-up when a workout you logged in another app counts toward your week. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Physical collects nothing. No account, no analytics, no ads, no network calls. Your health data stays in Apple Health, and your saved routines back up to your own iCloud. Nothing is ever sent to us. HOW IT WORKS Set your profile once, then just live your week. Workouts you log in Apple Health count automatically, and Physical shows how close you are with reminders that adapt as your rings fill. Try everything free for 7 days, then continue with a subscription or a one-time lifetime unlock.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Physical at 100% against Gutly's 25%. Physical also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3). Gutly's advantage is ratings volume (9 vs 1). On price, update cadence, 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. Gutly sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per 7 days and Physical sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Physical holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gutly has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 25% of Gutly's written reviews are positive against 100% of Physical's.
Gutly ships an update fortnightly, Physical every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
