Turn every push-up into a strike. Push Up Legend uses your camera to count push-ups, squats and planks automatically — and every rep hits a monster in a pixel-art fantasy campaign. CAMERA REP COUNTER Put your phone on the floor and train. The front camera counts each rep right on your device — no tapping, no wearables. A depth gauge shows the moment a rep counts. BOSS BATTLES YOU CAN FEEL Enemies flinch, lunge and shatter with every rep. Build combos, enrage bosses and land the final blow in slow motion. 50 DUNGEONS, 300 ROOMS Fight through 10 story acts, beat a unique boss in every dungeon and dethrone the Idle King. DUELS & GHOST RACES Race a rival in real time — same clock, both cameras counting. No one online? Race a real player's recorded best run. SHARE YOUR BOSS KILLS Boss fights can save a short highlight of the kill, ready to share. Nothing leaves your phone unless you share it. A PLAN THAT GROWS WITH YOU Sets and reps built around your level, four difficulties from Apprentice to Berserker, and a daily Battle Call reminder. RANKS & LEADERBOARDS Climb from Wood to Champion. Weekly, monthly and all-time Game Center leaderboards for push-ups, squats and plank. ARCADE MODES Speed Challenge, Horde Mode and Max Reps for quick daily sessions. APPLE WATCH, WIDGETS & HEALTH Your streak and dungeon on your wrist and home screen, a Live Activity on your lock screen, and workouts saved to Apple Health. SUBSCRIPTION After the free first battle, Push Up Legend requires a subscription. Eligible new subscribers get a 7-day free trial on the yearly plan; a monthly plan is also available.
