That's it. โข "Last time" card โ see your previous session and the volume PR to beat, right on the Log screen. โข Personal records โ trophy badges automatically mark every session where you hit a new volume or weight PR. โข Volume chart โ a clean line graph of your strength trend per exercise, with an interactive scrubber to explore any session. โข Full history โ all sessions grouped by date, expandable to every set, with swipe-to-edit and swipe-to-delete. โข kg / lb toggle โ switch units anytime; your data never changes, just the display. โข Dark mode + themes โ System, Light, or Dark. Looks great either way. โข 9 languages โ English, Turkish, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Arabic, Japanese, Simplified Chinese. NO ACCOUNT. NO CLOUD. NO NONSENSE.

Progressive overload, done for you. Open Repe at the gym and today's workout is ready: every set filled in from last time, and the weight goes up when you've earned it. You lift instead of typing. Tap Done, rest, repeat. One set at a time, not a spreadsheet. A plan in two taps Pick your goal, how many days a week you train and your experience. Repe builds the plan, like push, pull and legs, from over 1,300 exercises. Edit any workout in place, even mid-session. Progressive overload, built in Weight and reps come from your last session. Beat last time and Repe raises the weight when you've earned it, so every week asks a little more. The bar, loaded See the plates to put on each side, drawn from the plates at your gym. Rest on your Lock Screen The rest timer runs on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, with +15 s and Skip rest. When it's over, a tap tells you the next set is up. A streak that counts weeks Set your weekly target. Hit it and the week counts. A rest day never breaks your streak, and a spare plate can save a short week. See yourself get stronger Every week as a row of plates, and your lifts going up over time. Apple Health If you like, fill in your weight, height, age and sex from Apple Health to estimate your first weights. Repe only reads them and never writes to Health. Private by design No ads, no account, no tracking. Everything stays on your phone and nothing is sent to us. Reminders on your training days. Weights in kg. In English and Spanish.
