RepWar is a pushup war between you and one rival. You set the daily number. Both of you do it every single day, on camera. The first one to miss a day loses. That is the whole app. NO STREAK FREEZES. NO REST DAYS. NO EXCUSES. HOW IT WORKS 1. Declare war. Pick the daily rep count and send the invite link to someone you want to beat. 2. They accept. Day one starts tomorrow — a full first day for both of you, whatever timezone your rival is hiding in. 3. Every day, prop your phone on the floor and do your reps. The camera counts them. No self-reporting, no honor system. 4. Miss a day and it's over. They win. They will never let you forget it. THE PRESSURE IS THE PRODUCT - See your rival's status all day: have they banked theirs yet? - The moment they finish their reps, you know. - The moment you're about to lose, you know. The 11:15 PM warning is not gentle. - Lost? DEMAND A REMATCH. Same terms, one tap. The series record keeps score forever. WHY IT WORKS Fitness apps ask you to be accountable to yourself. You have met yourself — that is why you are here. RepWar makes you accountable to exactly one person: a rival who wants to watch you fail. A broken streak stings for a minute. Losing a war to your best friend lasts forever. No feeds. No likes. No coaches. A maximum of three notifications a day, and every one of them is about the war. RepWar is free.
