Why PRGRS is the best free workout tracker for iPhone
Built for lifters who want a fast, honest tracker — not a subscription trap.
Log Sets in Seconds
Tap-based logging with auto-filled weights from your last session. Previous-set reference, rest timer, and quick-start templates keep you lifting — not typing.
Track Progressive Overload Automatically
PRGRS remembers every set you've ever done. See your previous weights inline, track estimated 1RM trends, and know exactly when you're ready to add weight.
See Your Progress, Clearly
Volume per session, best weight over time, and muscle-group distribution — powered by Swift Charts. Your training history visualised in ways that actually help you train better.
Free. Yours Forever.
No subscription, no trials that auto-convert, no "Pro" tier, no ads. PRGRS is completely free — every feature, including every future update, is free and included. No catch, no asterisk.

Why is it free?
We think you deserve an honest answer.
PRGRS is built by just one person; hi, I'm Baris, and honestly, I was tired of the whole subscription nonsense (especially for fitness apps… seriously, why?). I wanted to build a tool you own, not a service you rent — something that just works, keeps your data on your device, and never nags you for money. PRGRS has zero server costs because everything runs on your phone, so there's genuinely nothing for a subscription to pay for. I'd rather have it in as many lifters' hands as possible than put a price tag between you and your training. So I made it free.
There's no catch and no asterisk. No ads, no "Pro" version, no locked features, and no selling your data — there's nothing to sell, it never leaves your phone. Every update I ship just lands on your device; no upsells, no gimmicks, no surprises.
If it ships in PRGRS, it's yours. That will never change. If a feature is in the app today, it stays free. And if PRGRS helps you train, the best thing you can do is leave a review or tell a friend at the gym — that's what keeps a solo project like this alive, without investors, ads, or subscriptions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before downloading.
Is it called PRGRS or PRGRES?
Both refer to the same app. The brand is PRGRS — that's the name here and everywhere else. On the Apple App Store it's listed as PRGRES, so search for "PRGRES" if you're looking it up there.
Is PRGRS really free? What's the catch?
There's no catch. PRGRS has zero server costs — everything runs on your device — so there's nothing a subscription would pay for. No ads, no "Pro" tier, and no selling your data (it never leaves your phone). It's a solo passion project kept alive by reviews and word of mouth.
Read the full story behind going free →Is my data private?
Completely. PRGRS uses SwiftData for local storage only. There are no analytics SDKs, no crash reporters phoning home, and no advertising frameworks. Your workouts never leave your iPhone.
Does it work offline?
Yes — PRGRS is built offline-first. Your workouts, history, charts, and gamification all work without Wi-Fi or cellular. Perfect for basement gyms and outdoor training.
What if I switch phones?
Your data transfers automatically when you restore from an iCloud or local backup. You can also export your workout history as a CSV at any time.
How is this different from Strong or Hevy?
Strong and Hevy are solid loggers — but both charge a monthly subscription for full features. PRGRS gives you everything (timer, charts, exercise library, XP, Live Activities, import/export) for free. No account required, no ads, no data sent to servers.
