TrainPilot is a running coach and a gym logbook in one app. FREE FOR A LIMITED TIME. Every feature below is unlocked, with no subscription and no ads. RUNNING A training plan built around your goal race, your current times and the days you can actually train. Live GPS tracking with pace, distance, splits and heart rate. Spoken cues tell you when you are drifting off target pace, so your phone can stay in your pocket. Structured interval sessions time each block for you. Treadmill mode for when you are indoors. GYM Build a session from a library of more than 700 exercises, or follow a plan. Log sets, reps and weight as you lift, with a rest timer that starts itself. Weight progression that reads what you actually lifted. TrainPilot works forward through your logged sessions and tells you what to load today, and why: "+2.5 kg, you hit 3x5 last time". Miss your reps and it will not add weight. Stall and it deloads. Warm-up ramps, supersets, dropsets and per-side rep tracking. Straight sets, circuits, HIIT, HYROX, AMRAP and EMOM, and you can change the format mid-session without losing a set. Repeat any past workout in one tap. Personal records, a muscle map of what you have worked, and progress over time. APPLE WATCH Start, pause and finish a run from your wrist. Live heart rate, running power and running-form metrics. Log gym sets from the watch between rounds. APPLE HEALTH Import runs recorded by Garmin, Strava, Nike or anything else that writes to Apple Health, with their GPS routes. Your TrainPilot runs are written back to Health. TRAIN TOGETHER Invite a friend to the same session and follow each other live, or train the same workout independently and compare afterwards. ALSO intervals.icu sync. Bluetooth heart-rate strap support. Kilometres or miles, kilograms or pounds, throughout. Available in English and Spanish.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Shoey at every 3 days against TrainPilot's weekly. TrainPilot's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
