We’re getting a head start on 2026 by fixing minor but still important stuff: • Our ”Export Your Data” feature on the settings page has been significantly improved. • The exercise library on the settings page now has the same design as in active workouts. • Inputting assisted or additional weight is now integrated with our new keyboard. • And other stuff you might notice if you dig deep enough! Digging is fun, after all. Let’s dig a hole to the other side of the world together next year!

Update to this version ASAP to be ready for January, when we release the Your Gains in Review report, which summarizes your 2025 training year. With this version, we also launch a new long-requested feature: Progress Pics! Check it out on the same page as your body measurements. We look forward to your feedback and to improving this feature together with its users. This might be the last update of 2025. On the other hand, it might not. Impossible to tell, really.

Santa brought us smashed bugs for Christmas—tasty, tasty smashed bugs.

Santa brought us smashed bugs for Christmas—tasty, tasty smashed bugs.

We’ve done a cool thing. A useful thing. A thing you’ll love, we think. Are you ready? You are ready … You can now sort the exercise list using our muscle heat maps, when adding exercises to your workouts!! Phew. That got us excited. Might need a nap after this. Also: - Improvements to our new numpad in active workouts. Better touch, a color change in dark mode, and bug fixes. - Speed improvements. Whatever that means.

Only a few days left until our Christmas fitness advent calendar premieres! If you haven’t updated the app in a while, do it now. This version contains the calendar. We’re replacing our underwhelming focus mode in active workouts, which hardly anyone uses because it’s not that great, with a setting to make the regular timer extra large instead! Which means you don’t have to enter a new screen for a bigger countdown, and can edit your workout like normal. For Goals & Streaks, we’ve enabled “exercise type” when you’re creating a new goal or streak for the number of workouts you want to log, meaning you can choose if the included exercises should fall under Strength, Cardio, or Mobility. And we’re slowly but steadily making the app much faster. Apple Watch: - The watch now shows when the exercise is one-sided. - If you’re using an exercise-specific timer, the display will enter “always on” mode, so the timer remains visible.

Our popular fitness advent calendar is back, for the seventh year in a row! Twenty-five days of Christmas, twenty-five small workout challenges you can add to the training you’re already doing. Update now to be able to open the first calendar door on December 1st. Once you have this version, you’ll see the advent calendar widget on your start screen in the app. Our elves have been busy with other things too, including building a new keyboard for the workouts, so that the set rest timer can be seen even when you edit your sets. Additionally, there’s a new setting that allows the app to follow your system setting for light or dark mode. If you want it to.

We’re closing in on December, meaning it’s almost time for our Fitness Advent Calendar. This year, we’ve redesigned our popular workout games, as they’re always included in the calendar. However, you can find them year-round in active workouts under the “Special Set” button. Take a look there and let us know if you run into any elf-looking bugs! In the previous version, we introduced two complications for Apple Watch. Now we’ve made another one, for Streaks. And going forward, the app will forever remember if you mute the stopwatch on exercises with time as a variable.

We’ve been playing watchmaker and built two new StrengthLog complications for the Apple Watch! One for the number of logged workouts, one for your training goals. Unfortunately, Jack Skellington broke into our workshop while we were asleep and stole all the app bugs. But he’ll probably return them soon. While you’re waiting, you can play with the new metric-to-imperial (and vice versa) converter when logging body measurements.

Time is of the essence, at least that’s what they say. So we’re experimenting with two new time estimates in this version: estimated workout time when planning a workout (free), and estimated finish time when checking off sets in an active workout (go to the settings page to enable this premium feature). And we’re once again looking over our graphs. Please let us know if anything looks weird. Or worse. In Streaks, you can now tap a date to view detailed info on how that day contributed to your streak. For iOS 26 users, our live activity now comes in Liquid Glass. Last but not least: All reports that the resistance is going to end are false. We are still fighting bugs daily, and will never give up.

You requested the ability to filter the exercise selection list by equipment; this update provides that. You also asked for the option to create goals and streaks based on primary muscles worked instead of specific exercises; yes, you get that one too. Also: • Bringing up a graph or muscle map in full screen shows the selected time period. • Fixed a retrieve from log bug for exercises with assisted weight. Plus bugs with sharing workouts and programs, and the new timeline on saved workouts.

This might be a small update, but it packs a punch. • We now have three instead of two options for exercises with time as a variable: manually enter the time, use the stopwatch, or use the new countdown timer. • The “most used exercises” list got an improved algorithm. • You can now long-press muscle names in the Muscles Worked feature to show the muscle you’re pressing on the muscle map. • Also added muscle maps to the new compare programs feature. • You can now upload your complete bodyweight history to Apple Health. • Bug hunting season in Sweden goes year-round.

We’re introducing two long-awaited features in this release: 1. A new premium feature in the training log, which shows a timeline of how you checked off your sets during the workout. Note: We started collecting data for this feature with v7.2.5 of the app, which was released on August 19, 2025. Only workouts you’ve logged after updating to v7.2.5 or later can show this set-rest timeline. 2. When you log your body measurements, you will now see how much the values ​​differ from each other.

We went to the optician the other day to get new glasses, only to discover that the rep fields in active workouts had started truncating the numbers for users with text sizes larger than the default setting. Thanks for helping us find and fix this bug, Mr. Optician!

Have you ever wanted to compare one training program to another one? Or even to your current training? Well, that’s possible now! Go to the program tab, select a program, and tap the new “Compare with another program” button to try it out. As always, we’d love your feedback on this new feature. Drop a line or two to app@strengthlog.com. Other stuff: - The plate calculator’s algorithm is updated to solve minor but stupid mistakes. - In-app premium purchases have been wonky for some time, but should work better going forward. - Lots of cleanup to make the app faster. Let’s hope we didn’t knock something over, like that old flower vase from grandma. Yes, we know kintsugi exists, and gold is pretty. But grandma trusted us. We love you, Grandma, and never want to disappoint you!

Nothing major today, just an endless hunt for bugs. Who will give up first, us or them? No one knows.

Nothing major today, just an endless hunt for bugs. Who will give up first, us or them? No one knows.

Let’s call this update on-the-job training for us, seeing as we just got back from vacation. But while trying to remember which pieces of code belong together, we accidentally fixed a few bugs. And we polished stuff that needed polishing: - The in-exercise timer has an improved design for fewer taps. - You finally get a PR animation and a sound notification when hitting a new PR using the stopwatch on a timed exercise. - And a sound notification when a preset time is reached on a timed exercise. - The training log can now show up to two decimals if you log your weights that way. - “Copy sets from last workout” now excludes any complexes the exercise was a part of last time you used it.

Are you ready for this? This version has not only one but TWO new, great features! At least we think they’re great, but you’ll be the judge. The first is Streaks, the other is Training reports. Let’s explain both of them, one by one. Streaks: We’ve had a goal feature in the app for years now, for setting up and reaching one-time goals—like hitting a new PR weight, a body measurement, or a specific number of sets in any exercise. With the new Streaks feature, you can finally set up continuous goals—like working out three times weekly, doing 50 push-ups daily, or taking a creatine supplement daily. How long will you be able to keep your new streaks alive? When creating a streak, you have two options: workout logging streaks and manual check-off streaks. The first kind is used for things you do in the gym and log in your workouts (meaning they get checked off automatically when you save a workout). The other kind, manual check-off, is perfect for different habits you want to establish, like remembering to take your creatine, eat a fruit, or read 20 pages of a book (this can be anything, it really is up to you). You can also set whether you want push notifications to remind you (and the time and days of the week the app should send them). Premium users can create an unlimited number of streaks. The feature also comes with a new iOS widget. Training reports: This is a gift to our premium users, and you’ll find it in the training log. Every time a month or year is over, the app will generate a training report that summarizes how you trained during that period, showing the number of workouts, volume, reps, sets, time in the gym, muscles worked, workout and weekly averages, most trained exercises, and new personal records. You can also compare any training report with the previous month or year. We think that both new features are pretty, pretty sweet. Also: - Two new features in the plate calculator: You can now assign exercises custom barbell weights instead of the standard barbell, and you can pick custom colors for your weight plates. - The muscles worked feature now has settings for target sets, meaning you can change the default setting of 10 sets/week to any number you want. Either for all muscle groups or for each muscle individually. - Two new achievements, connected to daily and weekly streaks. - The Goal feature got a facelift, too, to better align with Streaks. - The training log now has a “since start” summary at the top when users have logged workouts during at least two calendar years. - Old bugs replaced with new bugs.

People claim that it’s only a myth that Sisyphus had to endlessly roll that huge boulder up a steep hill. But we’re here to tell you that it sounds like a great exercise routine, unlike releasing endless bug fixes. At least, we’ve finally fixed the PR bug for pound users. We think. You’ll let us know otherwise. We also performed open heart surgery on workout and program sharing, bringing the URL creation back to life. Apart from this, this update mainly contains minor design improvements.

Our official story is that we broke superset merging because we wanted to find out if any of you guys and gals were using that feature. You clearly were, so we fixed it again. We also fixed the ability to add dates to planned workouts via the widget on the start screen. Here we can’t even think of an excuse as to why we broke it.

Look, a minor update! Wonder how many of these we’ll release before stepping up to v7.2?! Our guess is eight more. Don’t hold us accountable. Anyhoo, we’re mostly cleaning up in here. Depending on your system settings for text size, you can now have the in-app text smaller than our standard setting. And we fixed an annoying PR bug for users of imperial units instead of the metric system. We fixed other bugs too, of course. The dream of a bug free app lives on.
