ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Flex AI Workout Trainer & Log holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flex AI Workout Trainer & Log has 2.4K ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Flex AI Workout Trainer & Log's written reviews are positive against 71% of Workout Builder's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Flex AI Workout Trainer & Log ships an update every 9 days, Workout Builder fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and July 26, 2026 respectively.
