The gym log app that’s faster than pen and paper.
Repto replaces your gym notebook: tick a set in one tap, see what you lifted last time, and let the app suggest your next weight. Free, unlimited, no ads.
What a good gym log should do
Log a set in one tap. Weight and reps are pre-filled from your last session (for example “Last time 12 × 20 kg”), so most sets need a single tap.
Remember everything. Every set, rep and weight is saved with unlimited history on the free plan, and charts show your estimated 1-rep max and volume per exercise.
Tell you what to lift next. Hit the top of your rep range and Repto suggests the next weight (60 kg → 62.5 kg), so progressive overload happens without a spreadsheet.
Time your rest. The rest timer starts when you tick a set and stays on your Lock Screen, Dynamic Island and Apple Watch.

FAQ
What is the best free gym log app?
Repto is a strong pick if you want a gym log that stays free: unlimited sets, routines and history, a rest timer on the Lock Screen and Apple Watch, and no ads. Strong and Hevy cap free routines at 3 and 4; Repto has no cap.
Can I keep a gym log without my phone?
You can log a whole session on the standalone Apple Watch app with your iPhone left in the locker, and it syncs back afterwards. Sign in with Apple or Google to keep your log synced across iPhone, Apple Watch and Android.
Can I export my gym log?
Yes. Repto exports your workouts as CSV, so your training history is never locked in, and it writes workouts to Apple Health.
Is a gym log app better than a notebook?
A notebook works, but an app does the maths for you: Repto shows what you lifted last time on every set, suggests the next weight, times your rest and charts your estimated 1-rep max, which is hard to do on paper.
