TRAINING THAT KNOWS WHEN YOU'RE COOKED A workout log records what you did. GymHack reads what it's doing to you. NO ACCOUNT. EVER. Open the app and train. No email, no signup wall, no "create an account to continue." Your data lives on your device, backed up to your own iCloud. BUILT FOR YOUR GYM, NOT A GENERIC ONE Every gym is different. Yours has that one plate-loaded machine nobody else stocks, or a cable setup with its own quirks. GymHack lets you add your own exercises and your own machines — name them, photograph them, tell the app what they count as, and train with them like any built-in movement. And your AI Coach — a PRO feature, currently in beta — knows about them. Ask it to build a session around what your gym actually has, and it programs with your custom machines and exercises — not a stock library that pretends every gym is identical.

Some weeks you just feel off, tired, foggy, achy, low, and you can't put your finger on why. Tapestry helps you discover what's going on, privately, easily. Most apps make you pick a lane, mood, or food, or sleep, or your cycle. But you're not one thing, and neither is how you feel. Track whatever matters to you, and Tapestry surfaces the patterns hiding across all of it, in plain language. HOW IT WORKS • Log daily with a simple tap. Sleep, energy, mood, meals, bloating, workouts, libido, symptoms. It's your life, your categories. • Skip the busywork. Connect your wearable device. Then, your sleep, activity, and heart rate are pulled in automatically. No double logging what your phone or wearable already tracks. • See what connects. Each week Tapestry shows you what goes with what: the late glass of wine and the restless night, the stressful week and the bloating that came with it, the skipped walks and the flat mood. Each presented as a clear read you can act on. • It gets sharper the longer you track. Just like a real study, the more you log, the stronger and more certain the connections become, early hunches grow into patterns you can trust. WHY TAPESTRY IS DIFFERENT Every other app boxes you into being one kind of person, the mood tracker, the gut tracker, the menopause tracker. Tapestry connects across everything, because the answer is usually in the overlap, the thing no single-purpose tracker can see. PRIVACY BY ARCHITECTURE Your health data is never stored on our servers. It's processed privately, then it's gone, nothing to sell, nothing to hand over. Built on Cirdia's privacy architecture. We keep only the minimal account details needed to run the service (name, email, subscription), never what you track. TRY IT, THEN DECIDE Most free trials quietly flip into a paid subscription. Tapestry's doesn't. Use everything free for 30 days; when it ends, you choose whether to continue, no surprise charge. $7.49/month or $49.99/year in the US (set per country, shown in your local currency before you pay). If you subscribe, it renews like any subscription, cancel anytime. Start your 30 days. See what your patterns have been trying to tell you.
