Simple but does the job well

One suggestion: make the process of saving the bar weight simpler. For instance, after saving, you have to close the pop up, then you have to click on plates to get rid of the keyboard, and then you can get back to the calculator screen. So many steps! Please just make it a simple save button press that takes you right back to the calculator automatically. I have to do this all the time and it’s very annoying. In fact, just put it on the same screen as the plates. It doesn't need to be another screen. Just put it above the plates on the same screen. Huge improvement!Thanks!

Great feedback, thank you! You can now tap on the barbell directly to change the weight and all the extra steps on the inventory screen have been removed for a more efficient workflow

Almost perfect

I love how I can tap the bar itself to change the weight. To make this perfect: 1. Most important: Show a total of each size of plates added to a side, like the “Bar is Loaded” app. When the weight gets high, it can be nice to simply read “oh, i need to add five 45 plates to each size” instead of counting them up on the app. 2. Less important: Allow adding collars, like the “RackMath” app. Collars vary a lot, from not much to around 5 lbs each. Not a huge deal to me, but would round out the app nicely. 3. Bonus icing on the cake: give us the option to “add weight” to the stack instead of resetting the entire weight stack. I often start at lower weights and add weight as I go. Being able to see what I should add to get to my new, higher weight, without having to re-rack the entire bar, would be awesome!

Good, but request a feature

Hi, I like the app! I have one request. Could you add a home and gym option? For example, my weight set at home is limited; I only have a few plates in each weight size. The gym has plenty of plates for inventory. Could you guys add a home or gym option so my home plate inventory is saved (which is limited) and gym inventory stays high?

Great suggestion, that’s in the works!

I never write reviews but this one takes the cake! I see some apps that need premium features to even change the weight of the bar but not this one! Also you won’t be able to find your percentages that you would like, I personally don’t mind that. I suggest you give this app a try!
