Find the movement you need, then keep the settings you want to remember. MoveAtlas combines a free offline atlas of 1,324 exercises with your own gym notebook. Search names in English, French, German and Spanish, including common aliases such as pushups and bench press. Filter by body area, muscle and equipment. Your active gym keeps the results within its equipment. My gym brings your existing machine cards together, with your notes and personal photos. Search those cards by exercise name or by a setting you wrote, and switch gyms to find the right cards. Favorites remain available from the atlas. Exercise pages show native reference cards and text instructions. They contain no third-party exercise animations. Names are localized in four languages; this does not mean all technical instructions are translated. Five common movements have French and German instructions checked against the English source; other French and German notices explicitly show the original English. Other language coverage varies. Generate and save workouts locally. Add an exercise directly to a plan, browse manual alternatives for your gym, replace an item and undo the change. Alternatives are choices to review, not a guarantee that exercises are interchangeable. The generator keeps your equipment and body-area constraints and explains incomplete selections. The atlas, search, favorites, saved workouts and gym profiles are free. The notebook includes 5 items across personal exercises, machine cards and cycles; eligible users from before version 1.1.0 retain 25. One optional purchase removes that limit, without a subscription. Existing entries remain readable and editable. No account, ads or analytics. Notes and personal photos stay on this device. Catalogue browsing works offline; purchases and restoration use Apple StoreKit and may require a connection. Unreadable saved data is protected against accidental replacement.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GymReader at none against MoveAtlas's 3. MoveAtlas's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
