Is it really free?
Yes. Every feature is included and there is no paid tier, no trial and no paywall. The app is supported by advertising — a full-screen ad after a finished workout, plus an optional one you can watch in the coach for extra AI answers — which is how it stays that way. Ads are non-personalised: Google is never given your training, meal or health data.
Does it work without a connection?
Yes. The whole log lives in a local database, so you can train in a basement with no signal and lose nothing. Sync catches up when you're back online, and the first two AI tiers run on the device itself.
Do I have to use the AI?
No. GymLog AI is a perfectly good manual workout and food log if you never open the coach. And cloud AI is off until you switch it on.
Which wearables can it read?
Anything that feeds Apple Health on iOS or Health Connect on Android — Apple Watch, Garmin, Fitbit, Whoop and Oura all route through those. GymLog AI reads steps, active calories, exercise, sleep, resting heart rate and HRV. It is read-only; nothing is written back.
Can I get my data out?
Settings → Export my data gives you the whole log as CSV or JSON. No support ticket, no waiting period.
Is this medical advice?
No. Training and diet suggestions are generated from the numbers you enter and general exercise science — not from an examination of you. The coach can be wrong, and it can be confidently wrong. Talk to a doctor before changing how you train or eat, especially if you are pregnant, injured or managing a condition.
