GYM RPG is a workout tracker and fitness RPG that turns your real training into boss battles. Log your lifts and calisthenics, earn XP and level up a character that grows as you do. YOUR REAL WORKOUTS POWER YOUR CHARACTER Train 8 muscle groups: Arms, Legs, Chest, Back, Core, Shoulders, Glutes and Stamina. Every workout you log raises your stats, so the harder you train in real life, the stronger your character gets. Weightlifting, bodyweight, calisthenics, powerlifting and timed cardio like running, cycling and rowing all count. PARTY BOSS RAIDS WITH FRIENDS Form a party and take on bosses together. Every finished workout deals real damage. Your party fights one boss together and each member takes a turn per day. Train that day and your hit counts, so everyone helps everyone keep showing up. PICK YOUR CLASS Choose Ninja (swift, precise and agile) or Mage (stability and endurance). Your class shapes your gear progression as you train different muscle groups. SKILL TREE Spend skill points on attack, defense, health and gold branches. Your level and muscle stats earn the points, and the tree powers your boss fights. PET COMPANIONS Adopt a pet that lives on your home screen, reacts to your workouts and keeps you company on rest days. Start with a free cat, or adopt a frog or penguin with gems. Tap your pet once a day for a small reward. STREAKS THAT FORGIVE A BAD DAY Keep your workout streak alive, set a streak goal and earn gems when you reach it. Streak freezes cover a missed day, so one busy day does not undo your progress. DAILY AND WEEKLY QUESTS Daily quests: work out, log a meal, cheer a friend, message a friend and open the app. Four weekly quests stack on top for bigger XP rewards. NUTRITION TRACKING Log meals with food search or barcode scanning. Track calories, protein, carbs and fat. Meet your daily calorie and protein targets to earn a Nutrition Buff with bonus XP and power. WORKOUT LOG AND EXERCISE TRACKER Track sets, reps, weight and duration with a full workout history. Push-ups, pull-ups, squats, deadlifts, bench press: every exercise builds your character. SOCIAL FITNESS - Chat with your party and send cheers - Climb the friends and global leaderboards by streak or power - Unlock achievements, titles, gear, relics and cosmetics as you train WHO IS GYM RPG FOR? - Gym beginners who need a reason to keep showing up - RPG fans who want fitness to feel like a game - Lifters, calisthenics athletes and home gym users - Anyone who trains better with friends keeping them accountable Download GYM RPG and turn your next workout into a boss fight.

Other apps block your phone. This one does too — but it lets you earn the time first. You start with a small daily budget. Earn extra minutes through calm nights and challenges. THE NIGHT Set a night window, say 10 PM to 7 AM. Inside it, the apps you picked are closed. Every hour the phone stays down is worth a few minutes the next morning. Not all-or-nothing: reach for it at 3 AM and you only lose the hours after that — not the whole night. THE BODY Push-ups, squats, jumping jacks, plank, steps and short mindful breaks. Challenges credit minutes right away. Every exercise runs on a timer: pick a length, tap Start, put the phone down. If you like, let the camera count along — entirely on your device. No image is stored or sent. THE FOCUS CHECK Three minutes: a minute and a half of reading, one question, forty-five seconds of reaction. The result is a focus score from 0 to 100 — measured against your own baseline, not against anyone else. The score measures your trend, not your brain. Minutes are paid for the right answer. The check is one of the three daily challenges: measured once a day, the scores become a trend. With Pro you see it next to your nights and your minutes spent, day by day. THE STREAK Clear all three daily challenges in a day — a glass of water, a minute of breathing and the focus check — and the streak lives on. It's the only thing that carries past midnight — after five days held, you collect the minutes. A joker saves it across exactly one missed day. THE RATE IS FIXED What a night hour pays and what an exercise is worth is built in. An exchange rate you can adjust yourself isn't one. YOUR HISTORY With Pro, every day shows what you earned and what you spent. Every minute has an origin. DOOMIT PRO The shield, the night window, every challenge and your base minutes are free. Pro is tooling, not extra minutes: family challenge and friends list, history, focus trend, widget, spinner, buying jokers and iCloud sync. Monthly, yearly or one-time. WHAT STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE Which apps you block never leaves the device — iOS only hands the app anonymous tokens. With Pro, progress can sync through your private iCloud account; family challenges use Apple CloudKit. Purchases run through Apple and RevenueCat. No separate DoomIt account, no ads and no sale of your data. THE WIDGET IS THE APP With Pro, your remaining minutes sit right on your home screen, with your focus score in the wide size. Our idea of success is unusual: we want you to open the app less, not more. DoomIt uses Apple Screen Time (Family Controls) to lock the apps you choose during your night window.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: DoomIt at none against GYM RPG's shown. GYM RPG's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
