Hevy alternative
Hevy is a full gym tracker with routines, an exercise library and a feed where friends see your sessions. Log App keeps a workout as one entry with a round per exercise, shows nothing to anyone, and sits next to your other logs. If the feed is the part of Hevy you skip, this page is for you.
Facts about Hevy come from its public feature list as of September 2026 (hevyapp.com) and are kept general on purpose. If something has changed, tell us and we fix the page.
Feature by feature
| Feature | Hevy | Log App |
|---|---|---|
| Social feed | Follow friends, like and comment on workouts; profiles can be public or private. | No feed, no followers, no profiles. Your entries are visible only to you. |
| Exercise library | Large library with animations and custom exercises. | No library. Exercise names are free text, remembered per log. |
| Routines | Routine builder and shared routines; the free tier limits how many routines you keep and Pro lifts it (as of September 2026). | No routine builder. Duplicate the previous entry or look at it while you log. |
| Rest timer and supersets | Rest timer, supersets and a set-by-set flow. | Session timer only; each set is a round in the entry. |
| Watch and Health | Apple Watch and Wear OS apps and health-platform sync are listed on the public feature page. | Phone only. No watch app and no Apple Health sync, as of September 2026. |
| Analytics | Per-exercise charts, volume and records, more of it in Pro. | Per-exercise max, average and totals, plus an AI summary of recent entries with a suggested goal. |
| Other logs | Workouts and body measurements. | Any log you define, with its own variables, units, goal and map. |
| Attachments | Photos on a workout post. | Photos, sketches and voice notes on any entry; 25 free, more with premium. |
| Platforms | iOS, Android and a web app. | iOS beta via TestFlight, as of September 2026. |
| Price | Free with limits, Hevy Pro subscription (as of September 2026). | Free for logging; premium lifts the AI-analysis and attachment limits and adds place search. |
Better for
Hevy is better if
- You train with friends and the feed keeps you accountable.
- You want routines, supersets and a rest timer built into the logging flow.
- You log on a watch or on the web as well as on the phone.
Log App is better if
- You want a workout log that no one else can see, with no social layer to opt out of.
- Workouts are one of several things you track and you want one app, not four.
- You want the consistency tools, a weekly goal, a streak and a calendar heatmap, more than set-level analytics.
- Your exercises do not map onto a library, such as physio drills, climbing conditioning or home-gym improvisation.
Moving from Hevy to Log App
There is no automatic transfer yet. CSV import is planned and tracked on the public roadmap; until it ships, the honest path is to start fresh and keep your old data where it is.
- Install Log App and pick "Strength Training" during setup. The log has an Exercise round with Reps and Weight, a weekly goal of three sessions, and a few example entries you can clear with one tap.
- Log your next sessions in both apps for a fortnight. Log App works without an account, so nothing is lost if you decide against it.
- Add the variables you miss. A "Rest" number in seconds or a "Volume" note is one tap in log settings.
- Your Hevy history stays in Hevy. Hevy lists a data export among its features and Log App has CSV import on the roadmap; until that lands there is no automatic transfer.
Frequently asked
Is Log App a social workout app?
No. There is no feed, no followers and no public profile. Entries are on your phone first and sync to your account when you sign in.
Does Log App have routines?
Not as a builder. Most people keep one log per training style or open the last entry as a reference. A routine feature would show up on the public roadmap first.
Can I move my Hevy data into Log App?
Not yet. CSV import is planned and you can vote for it on the roadmap. Nothing on this page should be read as a promise of a date.
Which one is cheaper?
Both have a free tier. Log App's free tier has no entry limit and no routine cap; premium raises the AI-analysis and attachment limits. Hevy's pricing is on its site.
The short version
Hevy is a strong pick if the social side is what gets you to the gym. Log App is the quieter option: the same round-per-exercise structure, a goal and a streak, and no one watching. It also happens to hold your sleep and your runs, which is usually the reason people stay.
