Most workout trackers want to be your coach, your social network, and your nutritionist. Then they charge you every month for the privilege. Kilo does one thing well: it helps you log your lifts, see your progress, and get back to training. Kilo is a workout tracker built for people who already know how to lift. You pick your exercises, log your sets, and move on. It remembers what you did last time, shows you where you are trending, and stays out of the way. No AI suggestions. No social feed. No feature creep. What you get: • Quick logging — Tap in weight, reps, and sets with minimal friction. Rest timer built in. • Last-time data — Every exercise shows what you did last session, right where you need it. • Muscle Coverage — A visual breakdown of what you have been training and what you have been skipping. • Progress charts — Year-to-date volume, estimated 1RM trends, and session-over-session comparisons. • Templates — Save your go-to workouts and start a session in two taps. • PR tracking — Personal records logged automatically. You will know when you hit one. Kilo costs $8.99. That is the whole price. There is no subscription, no paywall that nags you every time you open the app, and no features locked behind a monthly fee. After your first year, cloud sync is available for $2.99 per year if you want it. Your workout data stays on your device either way. Try all Pro features free for 14 days. If Kilo is not for you, it drops to a free tier with basic logging, your exercise library, and 30 days of history. No charge unless you decide to buy. The workout tracker you buy once and actually use. Terms of Use: https://getkilo.fit/terms Privacy Policy: https://getkilo.fit/privacy

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Lifting Tracker at every 8 days against Kilo's every 2 weeks. Kilo's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
