Strongur: The Best Workout Log

Mandatory account creation but doesn’t support iOS passwords. We all have appathy nowadays. Step up your game.

I’m a developer too. I understand the work that goes into these apps. I’m just not a big fan of subscription based apps. I’ve been using this since it was the Multi-year Weight Training System. I’ve enjoyed it. But I did pay for the the top tier in the beginning to avoid all of the constant taxes of subscriptions.

I paid for the “lifetime” upgrade years ago. This used to be my favorite app. I recommended it to anyone looking for a weight tracking app. I was annoyed to log in and it told me that in order to use my programs I have already saved and used tons of times I now have to sub to the app. So I won’t be using the app anymore.

I love this app and could not imagine working out without it. Now it is a paid subscription when it has always been free. I can’t use it to workout until I come up with $100. Totally blindsided by this but I gotta come up with the cash because it’s that good. Could have given me a heads up. Will have to use something else till I get the cash.

Update: Im a programmer, I get how much work goes into, not just creating software, but keeping it up to-date with ever changing APIs and UI themes. Not to mention adding new features. But changing the rules on already purchased features kinda rankles me. I’ve been using this app since 2014 and the features and protocols I’ve bought over the years are now useless (at the time it was a once purchased always purchased). Even with that I’d have still subscribed, because, yeah it takes time to build apps and time is money. But man… you gotta look at the competition before setting prices. I can get a life time of the StrongLifts app for what you charge for a year. Yeah it doesn’t have all the features you have (yet) but it gets updated monthly. Old review because it still applies (old ranking was 5-stars): I've spent way too much money on workout / lifting apps, looking for the perfect one. And while I still haven't found the perfect one, this one is the best so far! The key things this app offers are: 1) metrics; why track your lifts if you don't use that data to figure out what works for you. This app is the best at presenting workout data! 2)Programming; its best to go into the gym already knowing what you are going to do. This app isn't to bad at this, I particularly like the auto loading and de-loading for mass or reps. 3) technique; the bar tracking feature is nice for visualizing my form. I would like to see the programming aspect evolve a bit more, but overall this is the best option on the market!

It’s not a problem to pay for quality but the interface and data disappeared! Will it come back if I pay? Well it WAS good! Now where to even start? I mean I know the answer is start by paying money but the interface is now so unintuitive that I don’t want to pay for it if the preview is accurate. Why are people constantly messing up perfectly good tools? So I uninstalled and reinstalled hoping it was a glitch or something… well now it wants to restore from backup but there is no backup…. So now it is stuck doing nothing!!! Why?! I just want to lift! Ah good ol’ money… ruined another nice thing

Updated this great app, now it’s requesting a subscription from out of nowhere? Can someone confirm this?

The developer hasnt updated the app in 2 years. When they finally did update the app they made it where i have to do a ton of extra work or subscribe to use the workout plan i ALREADY purchased from them back when it was multi-year. Dont waste your time with this app. Its great for short term use, but there is no respect for long term customers.

There’s a bug that’s not updating my one rep maxes or strength index
