Answers to the questions we get most often.

Getting Started

What do I need to run LiftProof?
An iPhone running iOS 18 or later. LiftProof is native SwiftUI and is not available on other platforms.
Do I need an account?
No account, no email, no password — ever. Everything you log is stored on your device.
What happens the first time I open the app?
A short onboarding walks through your logging style and training goal. You can skip it and go straight to a freestyle workout.
Can I import data from another app?
CSV import from other lifting apps is on the roadmap but is not shipping yet. You can start fresh or back-fill a few recent sessions by hand.
Which program should I start with?
If you are new to programming, Starting Strength or StrongLifts 5×5 is a common first pick. Intermediate lifters usually choose nSuns 5/3/1 or GZCLP.

Logging Workouts

How does set logging work?
Your workout is one screen — a ledger of your sets, edited in place. Tap the repeat chip to log last session’s set in one tap, or adjust weight and reps with steppers or the docked keypad. The rest timer starts automatically so your hands stay on the bar, not the phone.
Can I edit a set after the workout?
Yes. Open any past session from History, tap the set, and change weight, reps, or RPE. Edits recalculate volume and estimated 1RM.
How do freestyle workouts work?
Tap "Freestyle workout" on the Today tab. Add lifts as you go, drop or swap what the gym does not have, and the session saves like any other workout.
Can I customize the rest timer?
Yes. Default rest is set per lift and can be overridden per exercise mid-workout. When rest ends you get a haptic in the app and a notification even with the phone locked.
Is there an Apple Watch app?
Not yet. v1.0 is iPhone-first; an Apple Watch companion is planned for a future update.

Programs

Which programs are built in?
Starting Strength, StrongLifts 5×5, Full Body 3×, Upper/Lower, Push/Pull/Legs, PHUL, GZCLP, nSuns 5/3/1, and Bro Split — nine in all. Custom templates are supported too.
How do I switch programs?
Open Programs, pick a new template, and confirm the swap. Old history stays intact.
Can I customize a built-in program?
Yes. Fork any built-in program and change lifts, rep schemes, or weekly layout. Your version saves alongside the original.
Can I write my own template from scratch?
Yes. Build a routine from the exercise library, set the sets, reps, and rest, and your template saves alongside the built-ins. A good freestyle session can also become a template in one tap from the workout summary.

Subscription & Billing

What does LiftProof cost?
$10 per month or about $80 per year with a 7-day free trial. A one-time Lifetime unlock is also available. Billing runs through the App Store on your Apple ID.
How long is the free trial?
Seven days, starting the first time you open the app, with the full feature set unlocked. No card is needed for the trial — when it ends you pick a plan, and your data stays on your device either way.
How do I cancel?
Cancel any time in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions on your iPhone. Your data stays on your device after cancellation.
Monthly or yearly?
Monthly is flexible. Yearly works out to roughly 33% off. Both plans unlock the same features.
How do I restore a purchase on a new device?
Sign in with the same Apple ID and tap "Restore purchases" on the paywall. The subscription re-activates without a second charge.
Does Family Sharing work?
Yes. All plans — monthly, yearly, and Lifetime — support Apple Family Sharing, so up to five family members on your Apple Family can use LiftProof from one purchase.

Data & Privacy

Where is my workout data stored?
On your device, in Core Data. There is no LiftProof cloud that could leak. Your lifting history never leaves your devices unless you choose to export it.
Does iCloud sync work between my devices?
Not in v1. Your data lives on your device only — there is no LiftProof cloud. Multi-device sync through your private iCloud is planned for a future version.
What does LiftProof read from Apple Health?
With your permission: sleep, heart-rate variability, and resting heart rate for an on-device advisory recovery score, plus bodyweight, energy burned, and dietary energy and macros for on-device energy-balance charts. Completed workouts and macros you log are written back to Apple Health. Nothing is ever uploaded — there are no LiftProof servers.
Can I export my data?
Yes. Export every logged set, rep, and weight as CSV from the Profile tab. The file is generated on-device and is yours to keep or move elsewhere.
How do I delete my data or account?
There is no account. Delete the app and your local data — including progress photos — goes with it. Nothing is stored off-device, so there is nothing else to clear.
