GymPilot turns the workouts you save into workouts you actually do. Paste a link to a public workout video and GymPilot reads it for you. It pulls out the exercises and builds a clean workout you can follow on the gym floor: exercises in order, sets, reps, rest, equipment and duration. You check it, then save it in one tap. KNOW WHAT TO TRAIN TODAY Home shows one thing: today's workout, in one line, with one button to start. If a workout is on your plan, it leads. If not, GymPilot suggests the saved workout that has waited longest. SAVE WORKOUTS FROM ANY VIDEO A 60 second clip you would otherwise scrub through ten times becomes a card you tap and train from. Every import shows where it came from and links back to the original post. A REST TIMER THAT STARTS ITSELF Tick a set and the rest countdown begins. Add 15 seconds, skip it, or put the phone down. If you allow notifications, GymPilot tells you when rest is over. 873 EXERCISES WITH PHOTOS Studios group the exercise library by body part: chest, back, legs, glutes, shoulders, arms, core, cardio, and a no equipment studio for home. The best known movements come first, each with photos and step by step instructions. A LIBRARY YOU ACTUALLY USE Every workout you save is searchable and has its own cover. Group workouts into collections such as Push, Pull and Legs, and star the ones you come back to. TRAIN SET BY SET Start a workout and GymPilot walks you through it. The current exercise, its photo, sets, reps, rest and weight stay on screen, and every set gets ticked off as you finish it, so you never lose your place. PLAN THE WEEK Put workouts on a calendar, set a reminder, and see the week ahead at a glance. Move things around when life happens. BUILD A PLAN Tell GymPilot your goal, how many days a week you train, how long a session should be and what equipment you have. Plan Builder arranges your own saved workouts into a multi week plan, up to eight weeks. Plan Builder is part of GymPilot Pro. KEEP THE STREAK Every finished session is logged. GymPilot counts your streak, fills in your week, and marks the milestones so the habit becomes something you can see. MAKE IT YOURS Not everything comes from a video. Build workouts from scratch, edit anything GymPilot imports, reorder exercises, and adjust sets, reps, rest and weight to match how you train. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your workouts are saved on your device. Only the public link you paste is sent for analysis, which is done by Google Gemini. FREE AND PRO GymPilot is free to use with 5 workout imports a month and 1 collection. GymPilot Pro unlocks unlimited imports, Plan Builder and unlimited collections. Pro is available as a monthly or yearly subscription. The yearly plan includes a 7 day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple ID account settings after purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription. GymPilot reads publicly available video pages to extract exercise information. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, or any video creator. Exercise guidance is general information, not medical advice.
