TRAIN WITHOUT FRICTION • Start your workout and check off sets with one tap • Built-in rest timer starts automatically between sets • Live Activity on your Lock Screen — see your rest timer and current exercise without unlocking your phone PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD, AUTOMATED • Set your increment per exercise (e.g. +2.5 kg per successful session) • Fail a session? Dots tracks it and deloads by your chosen percentage after repeated stalls • Perfect for 5x5, 3x5, and other linear progression programs — or build your own SEE YOUR PROGRESS • Charts for every exercise — watch your lifts go up over time • Body weight tracking with its own trend chart • Full workout history: every session, every set, exactly as you performed it MADE TO STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY • Multiple profiles — share the app with a partner or track cut/bulk phases separately • iCloud sync keeps your data safe and on all your devices • No account required.

Every blood test you've ever taken, on one timeline. BioMap turns a pile of lab reports into a clear picture of your health over time. Upload a blood test PDF — or scan or photograph a paper report — and BioMap reads every biomarker for you, files it by date, and charts how each value is trending. You see the whole story, not just a single snapshot. UPLOAD & READ AUTOMATICALLY • Import a PDF, scan with your camera, or upload photos of a paper lab report • BioMap extracts every biomarker, value and unit — then matches each one to its built-in library of 179 clinical reference intervals • Prefer to type it in? Add results manually, or import a CSV, in seconds • Merge several reports from the same visit into one record SEE YOUR TRENDS • Every biomarker gets its own trend chart across all your tests • Built-in reference ranges show where each value sits — and flag when it falls outside • Scrub any chart to read the exact value on any date • Plain-language summaries describe what changed over time YOUR HEALTH TIMELINE • A chronological timeline of every report, side by side • Add your own notes, your doctor's advice, or vaccination records to any date • Health Overview shows at a glance how many markers are in or out of range • Filter the timeline by biomarker, by note type, or by vital sign NEVER MISS A TEST • Set reminders for your next blood test, appointment, or follow-up BUILT FOR FAMILIES • Keep separate profiles for everyone — yourself, parents, kids • Each profile holds its own photo, blood type and patient-history note for long-term conditions and medications • Reorder profiles so the people you check most sit first • Each profile's data stays completely private and separate PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your results are stored in your own private iCloud — not on our servers • Turn on a Face ID or Touch ID app lock whenever you want one • Import weight and blood pressure from Apple Health (read-only, kept on your device) • Your data is never sold or used for advertising • Optional AI reading of reports always asks your permission first SHARE WITH YOUR DOCTOR • Export a clean BioMap Report PDF to bring to your next appointment (Pro) • Or export your original lab reports, combined into a single file (Pro) WHAT'S FREE The full Timeline, notes, report merging, reminders, Apple Health import, the Face ID lock and manual entry are free for everyone — along with 2 profiles and 3 report uploads.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dots at none against BioMap's 3. Dots also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). BioMap's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
