Taikan
Read full descriptionHide full description
Taikan is the member app for gyms, studios, and coaches that run on Taikan. If your gym has invited you, everything you need for training lives here. BOOK CLASSES See what your gym is running this week and book a spot in seconds. Join the waitlist when a class is full and get your place automatically if someone drops. Cancellation windows are shown up front, so you always know where you stand. Book or cancel while offline and it syncs the moment you reconnect. CHECK IN WITHOUT THE QUEUE Scan the QR code at the door, or check in by location once you have arrived. No sign-in sheet, no waiting at the front desk. FOLLOW YOUR PROGRAM Your coach assigns workouts day by day. Open one to see every section and movement, watch the demo video when you are unsure of a lift, read your coach's notes, and mark it done when you finish. TRACK WHAT YOU LIFT Your PR Board keeps the current best for every lift and benchmark workout, each with its own trend chart. Log a PR in a couple of taps and watch the line move. SEE PROGRESS BEYOND THE BAR Log body metrics, keep progress photos side by side in the compare view, and set goals you actually revisit. Your photos stay private to you and your coaches. TALK TO YOUR COACH Direct messages, comment threads on specific workouts, and announcements from your gym, all in one inbox. HANDLE THE ADMIN ONCE Your membership, remaining class credits, upcoming bookings, payment method, and receipts are all in the app. Sign waivers and health forms without printing anything. IN YOUR LANGUAGE Hebrew, English, and Russian, with full right-to-left support. A note on memberships: plans and class packs are sold by your gym. Payment goes to your gym through its own payment provider, not through the app. Taikan is only useful if your gym, studio, or coach uses Taikan. Ask them for an invite.
WODzilla

WODZILLA is a monster of an interval timer for CrossFit, HIIT and functional fitness. Prop your phone up across the gym and read it at a glance: how long is left, whether you're working or resting, and which round you're on. AN AI COACH IN YOUR EAR Turn on AI Coach and a coach talks you through today's workout: a short briefing before you start, calls written for this workout, and a few words to keep you moving. It reads your notes, so it knows the movements. 3 free coached workouts every month, unlimited with WODzilla Pro (fair use). A workout the coach has prepared repeats free, even offline. AI-generated voice. General fitness cues, not medical advice. Listen to your body. DESCRIBE IT, SAY IT OR SNAP IT Type today's WOD, read it out loud, or take a photo of the whiteboard, and WODzilla's AI sets up the clock for you: EMOMs, AMRAPs, For Time, Tabatas, rests and multi-part days. Screenshots of your training app work too. The result opens in setup for you to check before you start. You get 5 free AI builds every month. EVERY FORMAT YOU TRAIN EMOM, AMRAP, For Time (with a cap or without), Tabata and fully custom work/rest intervals. Start a default clock in one tap, or tweak the time, rounds and get-ready countdown first. COMBO: BUILD THE WHOLE WORKOUT Chain timers into one flow: a Tabata warm-up, rest, a For Time chipper, rest, an AMRAP finisher. Add parts that wait for you, like strength sets at your own pace and rest until you're ready, then run it without touching your phone in between. READ IT FROM ACROSS THE ROOM One big ring and a huge clock. The whole screen turns lime for work, blue for rest and orange for get-ready. Tap the ring to pause, and tap + Round to score AMRAP rounds without breaking stride. CLASSIC VOICE CUES Prefer it simple? Spoken prompts call out what's next, rests, halfway points and the last round. Pick your level: sounds only, minimal, heads-ups, or heads-ups plus every round. PLAYS NICE WITH YOUR MUSIC Beeps and voice play over Spotify or Apple Music, lowering your music only while they speak. The timer keeps running with the screen locked. ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN The running timer appears on your lock screen and in the Dynamic Island, with pause and skip buttons. SAVE AND REPEAT Save your go-to workouts with notes, and look back at every session and score in History, including the ones you ended early. WODZILLA PRO Every timer is free, always. The AI builder is free for 5 builds a month and the AI coach for 3 coached workouts a month. Go Pro for unlimited AI builds and your AI coach every time (within fair use). Try it free for 1 week. No account, no sign-up, no ads. Your workouts and history are saved on your iPhone. Set the clock and go crush it.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Taikan at none against WODzilla's 2. Taikan also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
