# RepCount vs Gym log

The clearest difference is monetization model: Gym log at free against RepCount's freemium. Gym log also leads on iOS requirement (16.2 vs 18.0). RepCount's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 881). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RepCount sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Gym log sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. 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 RepCount against 4.9 for Gym log. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RepCount has 13K ratings behind it against 881, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 93% of RepCount's written reviews are positive against 99% of Gym log's.

RepCount ships an update every 10 days, Gym log every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
