VigiGym – Workout Tracker for iPhone & Apple Watch
Log sets, weights and reps in seconds. Next session, you see exactly what you lifted last time — on your iPhone or your Apple Watch. No coach, no clutter, just your progress.
The Reality
You finish a workout feeling strong.A week later, you can't remember what you lifted. So you guess. Again.
Progress slows. Motivation fades. Not because you lack discipline — because nothing was recorded. VigiGym was built for that moment: when training gets serious, but your tracking doesn't.
How it works
The moments that matter in every session. VigiGym is built around exactly these — nothing else.
From straight sets to supersets, giant sets, and drop sets – VigiGym adapts to your training style with a modular builder. Combine your favorite exercises with a few taps — 242 built-in, plus any custom exercise you create yourself — tweaking weights on the fly. Whether you're chasing hypertrophy for bodybuilding or raw strength for powerlifting – start with a basic lift and evolve it into a complex set.
Sweaty hands, gloves, shaking fingers – VigiGym transforms workout input with precision sliders and pickers. Big, glove-friendly buttons for one-hand grips, swipe gestures to complete sets and navigate. Mark sets done and swipe the rest timer – it works even without looking at your screen.
More reps than planned? Heavier – or lighter? Right after the set, a long-press adjusts reps and weight to what you actually did. At the end of the routine, one tap makes those values your defaults for next time. Logging achieved values is free; the one-tap adoption is Pro.
Stop guessing your working weights. VigiGym's built-in 1RM calculator gives you calculated guide weights for hypertrophy, strength or endurance – based on what you actually lift. Pyramid and drop sets are calculated instantly, and the rest countdown keeps your pace between sets.
Your workout log keeps every set, rep and weight – free, with no limit. The charts turn it into a picture: volume per week, month and year, a streak calendar and the comparison with last month. Free shows your last 20 days; Pro opens your complete history and every insight – progression per exercise, muscle balance and heart-rate analytics.

VigiGym in a nutshell
Every routine card delivers an instant snapshot of your targeted muscle groups – color-coded and matched to your split. VigiGym spots when you're stacking a superset or giant set and auto-groups your exercises. See what you train. Know what you build.
Missing a machine or a variation? Create it in seconds – name, muscle group, equipment – and it slots into any routine like a built-in exercise, synced across your devices via iCloud.
Your training data stays on your device. iCloud Sync is optional and off by default — no server between you and your training.
Gym in the basement? No signal? No problem. VigiGym runs completely offline.
Weekly, monthly & yearly progress charts, a streak calendar that keeps you accountable, volume in kg, lbs or total sets – and a complete workout logbook with your entire training history.
Train in your language: English, German, French, Dutch, Spanish, and Japanese.
Your data synced across all devices – export your complete training history as JSON anytime.
Rest timer and next sets directly on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island – stay in the flow.
No web wrapper, no compromises. Every screen tuned for iOS 26, every gesture and every haptic in its place.

Got questions?
The questions we hear most — answered without marketing fluff.
Your training data stays on your device — no third-party cloud, no account required. Your workout history is stored locally on your iPhone by default. Optional iCloud Sync (off by default) lets you back it up to your private iCloud account. The only thing that ever leaves the app is anonymous, cookie-free usage statistics — never your training data.
No — VigiGym works perfectly on iPhone alone. But if you have an Apple Watch, it enhances the experience with wrist-based controls, rest timers, and haptic feedback.
Yes – training itself is free for everyone: unlimited routines and trainings, full workout log and streak, stats for your last 20 days. And the monthly plan starts with a 7-day free trial of everything in Pro – cancel anytime, no strings attached.
No - VigiGym is an iOS-only app. Every screen and animation is hand-crafted for SwiftUI, and bringing the same experience to Android would be a massive undertaking for a one-person team.
Absolutely — and it takes seconds. VigiGym ships with 242 exercises, but if your gym has a machine or a variation we don't cover yet, you're never stuck: create a custom exercise, and it slots into your routines just like any built-in movement. Your training, your library.
VigiGym requires iOS 26.0 or later; the Apple Watch app requires watchOS 26.0 or later.
Yes — I built the entire app, website, design, and visuals myself. 30+ years of experience and genuine passion for lifting went into every detail.
Yes - I follow a Monozukuri philosophy: build a rock-solid foundation first, then layer in new features one by one. Every addition must match the same simplicity.
VigiGym launches with 242 exercises, each with custom muscle visualizations. More are coming — but always with precision, not mass production. And if you need one today, you can create it yourself right away.
VigiGym gets out of your way. No social feeds, no banners, no clutter — just fast, clean workout tracking. Other apps want to be your coach. VigiGym just wants to be invisible until you need it.
For lifters who plan their own training and want every set logged cleanly. No subscription traps, no social distractions — just focused workout tracking that respects your time and privacy.
Most gym log apps want your data and attention. VigiGym is a weight training app built by a lifter, for lifters — it tracks what matters and stays out of your way.
Yes — and it's a true standalone experience. Track your entire workout from your wrist with haptic feedback, rest timers, and no phone required.
30+ years under the bar
I'm Achim Loobes. I've been lifting since the late '80s, back when progress lived in worn notebooks and crossed-out numbers. Decades later, with an iPhone in my pocket, something felt wrong. Training had evolved. Tracking hadn't.
Every app I tried pulled me out of the workout. Too many features I never asked for. Or tools so basic they broke the moment training got serious. I didn't want motivation. I wanted clarity. Something that thought like a lifter—focused, precise, no noise.
When I couldn't find it, I stopped searching and started building. Every line of code. Every pixel. Every muscle visualization. Over 2,000 hours, alone, driven by the same discipline that keeps me coming back to the gym.
And then there is the look. I wanted VigiGym to feel as if Apple had built it: 100% native SwiftUI, every screen tuned for iOS 26, haptics, Dark Mode, Dynamic Island, the lot. Possibly the best-looking workout tracker for iPhone. That was the ambition, anyway. You be the judge.
I use VigiGym myself in every single workout. VigiGym isn't a corporate workout app. It's the tool I wanted for myself.
Your gains await
