GymScape is a fantasy MMORPG you play with your body. Your phone's camera counts your reps, and every clean rep lands a hit on the monster in front of you. Your steps mine ore and chop trees. Everything you gather goes into the gear you wear. FIGHT WITH REAL REPS Push-ups, squats, sit-ups, lunges, curls, planks and more. Prop your phone up, step back, and the camera watches your form and counts each rep you do properly. Half reps do not count. Your form is tracked on your phone. WALK TO GATHER Your steps train Mining and Woodcutting. Walk during the day, bank your steps, then spend them at the copper rocks, the oak woods or the mithril mine. Every gathering spot has its own animated scene, and you can see other players working beside you. ELEVEN SKILLS Melee, Ranged, Magic, Defense, Hitpoints, Raiding, Mining, Woodcutting, Smithing, Fletching and Crafting. Every level is earned with real exercise. OVER 50 ADVERSARIES From chickens and boars to giants, dragons and the Orc Warlord. Each one is beaten with a particular exercise. Better armor and higher levels let you last longer and hit harder, and the rare drops are rare. SMITH, FLETCH AND CRAFT Smelt ore into bars, smith armor and weapons, fletch bows and arrows, and tan hides into leather and dragonhide. Wear what you make and see it on your character. PLAY WITH OTHERS Join a clan and fight bosses together. Everyone's reps hit the same health bar at the same time, and each player rolls their own loot. Take raid contracts, climb the hiscores and see how your levels stack up. WATCH YOURSELF GET STRONGER Your reps, personal bests and steps are logged by day, week and month. The number that moves is not just your XP. It is how many clean push-ups you can do in a row. FREE TO PLAY GymScape is free to download and play. An optional membership opens more adversaries, gear and raid organizers. GymScape needs your camera to count reps, and access to Apple Health or Health Connect to count your steps.

Punch Counter
Read full descriptionHide full description
How many punches can you throw in 10 seconds? PunchCounter turns your iPhone or iPad into a boxing punch counter. Stand 2–3 meters in front of the camera, tap Start, and throw your fastest punches. The app watches your body pose in real time, counts every punch, and beeps on each hit so you can keep your eyes on your target — not on the screen. HOW IT WORKS • Tap Start and get into position during the countdown. • Punch as fast as you can for 10 seconds — every detected punch beeps. • When time is up, the app announces your result out loud in English: "You made 20 punches." • See your score on the result screen, then repeat and try to beat it. BUILT FOR TRAINING • Big on-screen counter readable from across the room. • Live skeleton overlay shows what the camera sees. • Works in portrait and landscape. • Beeps and the voice announcement play even with the silent switch on, so the session always gives you feedback. PRIVATE BY DESIGN All pose recognition runs entirely on your device using Apple's Vision framework. Video is never recorded, stored, or sent anywhere. No account, no ads, no tracking, no data collection. WHAT YOU NEED • A device with an A12 Bionic chip or newer is recommended for smooth 30 fps counting (works on older devices with a warning). • Enough space to stand 2–3 meters from the camera. • iOS 17 or later. Grab your phone, set it against a wall, and find out how fast your hands really are.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Punch Counter at none against GymScape's 2. GymScape's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
