I’ve been lifting for more than 20 years, and I built WeightsBook because I was tired of workout-logging apps that made a simple job feel complicated. With every app I tried, I came away with the same impression: its designers did not understand how lifters actually use a training journal. As a programmer, I decided to build the app I wanted. I returned to what had always worked—pen and paper—and built from there. While training a friend one day, I realized the same journal idea could help personal trainers: a separate weightsbook for every client, all in one app. That led me to add support for multiple weightsbooks, allowing trainers to record each client’s workouts separately and export or share each one. The result is WeightsBook: a modern lifting log that retains the look, feel, and simplicity of a traditional training journal. Its distinctive handwritten style is intentional. Logging a set should feel like writing it down, not operating a dashboard. Within that familiar design, experienced lifters will find detailed tracking for RPE, RIR, supersets, drop sets, and partial reps. If you have ever abandoned a workout app and gone back to a notebook, WeightsBook was made for you.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WeightsBook at 80% against Drink Less's 33%. WeightsBook also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). Drink Less's advantage is price (Free vs $4.99) and rating (4.6 vs 3.0). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Drink Less holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Drink Less has 21 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of WeightsBook's written reviews are positive against 33% of Drink Less's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

WeightsBook ships an update every 2 weeks, Drink Less every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
