The workout log that respects the work: two-tap set logging, honest progress charts, and a one-time price. No subscription, no account, no cloud — every rep stays on your phone. Try everything free for 30 days. Keep it forever for $9.99. That's the whole business model. WHAT IT DOES • Log a set in two taps — your last numbers sit beside every set, tap to fill • Rest timer that rings even when your phone is locked • PRs detected automatically: heaviest weight, estimated 1RM, set volume • Charts for every exercise — est. 1RM, best set, volume — plus body weight • 184-exercise library, unlimited custom exercises and routines • 11 proven starter routines: 5×5, push/pull/legs, upper/lower, full body • Supersets, dropsets, warm-up sets, and an optional RPE field • Plate calculator with a warm-up ramp • Edit past workouts, repeat any workout, keep notes anywhere YOUR DATA IS YOURS • Works completely offline — your workout data never touches a network • No account and no sign-up; nothing to remember, nothing to leak • Import your history from Strong, Hevy, or Jefit CSV exports • Export to CSV anytime, and back up everything to a file you keep • Delete the app and the data is gone — we never had it WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most gym trackers rent you access to your own numbers, and the features you rely on have a habit of moving behind the paywall. RackRecord has no server at all, so there is nothing to subscribe to, no sync to fail, and no database of your training for anyone to breach or sell. It works in a basement gym with no signal, and nothing in it is ever paywalled — the unlock is the app. PRICING, PLAINLY Full app, free, for 30 days from first launch. After that, a single $9.99 purchase (RackRecord Lifetime Unlock) opens the app permanently on devices signed into your App Store account. Restore Purchases brings it to a new phone at no charge. Nothing renews. There is no other tier or fee. Questions? support@furstenburgdigital.com — we answer within 2 business days. Furstenburg Digital LLC · rackrecord.furstenburgdigital.com
