Plus One is a workout tracker built on progressive overload: do a little more than last time, every time. Every set shows what you lifted last time. Beat it by one rep or a bit more weight and you earn a +1. Stack them up and you get stronger. BEAT LAST TIME ⢠Last time on every set, so you always know the number to beat ⢠Your next target on every set: one more rep, or the next weight once you've hit the top of your rep range (Pro) ⢠Weight jumps sized to your equipment, in lb or kg ⢠When a lift stalls, one clear fix: add a set, slow the lowering, or rest longer (Pro) ⢠Targets hold steady after a bad night's sleep or time away, so you ease back in (Pro) LOG FAST ⢠Tap to log a set and the rest timer starts on its own ⢠Rest timer on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, with +15s and Skip ⢠Warm-ups, drop sets and supersets, swaps for today or for good, notes on any lift ⢠Say your sets instead of typing, like "135 for 8" (Pro) APPLE WATCH ⢠Run a whole workout from your wrist, with or without your iPhone ⢠Log sets with the Digital Crown, and feel a tap when rest is over ⢠Live heart rate and calories, then heart-rate zones when you finish ⢠The number to beat on every set (Pro) A PROGRAM THAT FITS ⢠Answer a few questions and get a program from proven templates, from full body to Push / Pull / Legs ⢠Every lift fits the equipment where you train: full gym, home gym, dumbbells only, hotel or bodyweight ⢠Train on your schedule: a number of workouts a week, or fixed days ⢠Program Score rates your plan from 0 to 100 on weekly sets per muscle, frequency and session length ⢠Nearly 380 exercises, most with pictures, plus your own SEE WHAT MOVED (Pro) ⢠Strength charts, personal records and estimated one-rep max for every lift ⢠A 3D body map of the muscles you've trained APPLE HEALTH Plus One works with Apple Health if you allow it. It saves your strength workouts, how hard they felt, and weigh-ins you log. It can read sleep, heart rate, HRV and resting heart rate for a recovery estimate (sleep needs Apple Watch), plus body weight and steps. Health data stays on your iPhone. It is never used for ads and never shared. EAR BREAKS AND REST CUES (Pro) Your music or podcast dips while you rest and comes back for your next set. Optional "get ready" and "go" sounds play in your headphones. YOUR DATA, YOUR WAY ⢠No account, no sign-up, no ads ⢠Your log syncs only through your own iCloud, and you can turn that off ⢠Bring your history: import a CSV export from another workout app ⢠Export your log as a CSV file, or share a workout as an image or video ⢠Prefer to just log? Freestyle mode turns targets off FREE AND PRO Free: unlimited workouts, routines and custom exercises, supersets, your full history, last time on every set, the rest timer and Live Activity, the widget, logging on Apple Watch, Apple Health, iCloud sync, sharing, import and export.
