There are no user accounts, no servers, no analytics, and no third-party tracking of any kind — your training data never leaves your phone. See the full privacy policy for details. Setmark is independently developed and actively used by its own developer — built to be the app a lifter would actually want to open every session.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Setmark at none against IronLog's 1. Setmark also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). IronLog's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
