Jakd: Level Up Your Fitness Your notes app is not a workout tracker. We get it — you've been logging sets in a spreadsheet, a notes app, or that crumpled paper in your gym bag. It worked. Sort of. But did it ever give you XP for hitting a PR? Did it rank you up for staying consistent? Did it make leg day feel like a boss fight? Jakd did. Jakd does. Jakd will. EVERY REP HAS A SCORE Log your sets — weight, reps, bodyweight, duration, distance, and more — and earn Gains (that's XP, but cooler). Hit a personal record? Bonus Gains. Stay consistent for a week? Your multiplier goes up because you're an athlete now. RANK UP OR STAY RAW Climb the ranks from Raw to Jakd. Your Daily Gains Ring tracks your progress in real-time. Think of it as your gym rep score that actually means something. ROUTINE PROGRESSION & DECAY Build custom templates and watch your routines rank up the more you use them. But be warned: skip too many sessions and your routines will decay. Your routine is judging you (lovingly). GHOST MODE (PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD) No guesswork. Your last session's numbers show up as ghost values so you always know exactly what to beat. SOCIAL FEED & LEADERBOARDS Follow your squad, share your workouts, and fight for the top of the weekly leaderboard. Nothing motivates like seeing your friend out-lift you on a Tuesday. AI SPOTTER — YOUR POCKET COACH Need a program? Stuck on an exercise? Ask the AI Spotter. Powered by advanced models, it’s your coach, programmer, and motivator rolled into one. APPLE HEALTH INTEGRATION Jakd seamlessly syncs with Apple Health. Import your steps, active energy, and historical workouts to get a complete picture of your fitness journey and earn XP for all your activity.

Grav is a strength tracker built for one thing: logging your weightlifting sessions fast, so you can focus on training instead of your phone. Tracking a workout should be effortless when it goes to plan — and quick to adjust when it doesn't. Changed the weight or reps on a set? Adjust it with a quick wheel instead of typing the whole value from scratch, and your following sets carry that change forward automatically. One adjustment, not the same edit over and over. Grav does the small things well and gets out of your way. WHAT MAKES GRAV DIFFERENT - Faster logging — quick wheel adjustments and sets that follow your changes mean you log a set in seconds, whether you're lifting to plan or pushing past it. - Bring your history with you — switching from another workout app? Import your past workouts and keep your progress, records and charts from day one. - Routines with dynamic weights — your working weights adjust to your recent performance every time you start a routine. Hit a new max and your next session moves up on its own, no manual updates. - Smarter supersets — log a full round in a single tap when nothing changes, so circuits stop being a chore. - Charts that show real progress — alongside volume and 1RM charts, Grav adds views like weight-vs-reps scatter and per-set bar charts, so you can actually see whether you're improving or stuck. - Compare without leaving your workout — see your current set against last time, your plan, or your best, and switch between them instantly while you train. - Body measurements & health data — track arms, legs, waist, chest and more, with body fat, lean mass, BMI, and recommended macros calculated for your goal. - Fitness challenges — create a daily challenge, invite friends, and keep each other consistent. Whether you're focused on powerlifting, hypertrophy, or just staying consistent in the gym, Grav keeps logging out of your way. COMING SOON Apple Watch app. Assisted workout builder.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Grav at none against Jakd's 2. Grav also leads on ads (none vs shown). Jakd's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 8 days) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
