How it works

Set it up once. Then just show up.

GymRhythm uses your iPhone's built in geofencing to notice when you arrive at your gym. Your only job is walking through the door.

1

Pin your gym

Search for your gym or drop a pin on the map, then set the detection radius. Add as many gyms as you train at.

2

Walk in. That's it.

The session starts when you arrive and ends when you leave. Start time and duration are recorded for you, automatically.

3

Watch your rhythm build

Every visit grows your streak, fills your weekly goal, adds a square to your year heatmap, and earns XP toward 50 levels.

Why it sticks

Every other tracker asks you to build two habits

Going to the gym, and logging that you went. When the logging habit dies, motivation follows. GymRhythm deletes the second habit entirely.

A year of gym visits in one picture

The GitHub style heatmap fills itself in, one square per visit. Gaps are visible before they become quits, and a full grid is the most motivating thing you will ever scroll past. Your best streak, total visits, weekly average, and average session time sit right underneath.

Streaks and weekly goals that never lie

Set a weekly goal in gym days, like 3 or 4 per week. Each visit checks a day off automatically, so the number always reflects reality. No streak dies because you forgot to tap a button on a tired Tuesday.

FAQ

Questions, answered honestly

How is GymRhythm different from other gym habit tracker apps?
Most gym habit trackers still need a manual tap to check in, so streaks break the moment you forget, usually on the tired days. GymRhythm detects your gym visits automatically by location, so your streak reflects whether you actually showed up. Learn more
Can GymRhythm count how many times I go to the gym?
Yes, that is the whole app. Pin your gym on a map once and GymRhythm logs every visit automatically with arrival time and duration, then rolls them into weekly day counts, streaks, and a year heatmap. Learn more
Does GymRhythm have a workout heatmap?
Yes, a GitHub style year heatmap where every square is a real, auto-detected gym visit. Because sessions log themselves, the grid never has gaps from forgotten entries, only from days you genuinely did not go. Learn more
Is there a GitHub-style contribution graph in GymRhythm?
GymRhythm's signature view is exactly that: a year long contribution grid of your gym visits. Unlike manual grid apps, the squares fill themselves. Arriving at your pinned gym logs the session automatically. Learn more
I keep abandoning workout loggers like Hevy and Strong. Will GymRhythm be different?
If you have quit multiple loggers, the problem is usually the logging, not you. GymRhythm asks for zero data entry. It detects gym visits by location, so there is no logging habit to abandon. It does not track sets or reps, and that is the point. Learn more
How does GymRhythm actually help me stay consistent at the gym?
Consistency tools fail when tracking takes effort. GymRhythm removes the effort. It detects every gym visit by location and turns showing up into streaks, weekly goals, and a year heatmap. Visible progress from your very first visit. Learn more
I have ADHD and forget to log everything. Will GymRhythm still work for me?
That is exactly who it is built for. There is nothing to remember. The app detects when you are at your gym and logs the session itself. The streaks, XP levels, and heatmap give the visible payoff without any logging ritual to maintain. Learn more
Can GymRhythm track a 3 days a week gym goal?
Yes. Set your weekly goal in days, say 3 per week, and GymRhythm checks off each day automatically when it detects you at your gym. You always know exactly where the week stands without logging anything. Learn more
Does GymRhythm measure how long my gym sessions are?
Yes, automatically. It timestamps when you arrive at and leave your pinned gym, so every session gets a duration. Over time you see your true average session length with no timers or manual entry. Learn more
Why do I need GymRhythm if I already have an Apple Watch?
Apple Watch tracks workouts you remember to start. It has no idea how often you go to the gym. GymRhythm tracks attendance. It auto-detects arrivals and departures at your pinned gym and builds your visit history, streaks, and year heatmap. Learn more
What happens to my streak if I miss a week?
Your history stays intact. A missed week shows as a lighter row on the heatmap, and your weekly goal resets fresh with the new week. Goals count days per week, so one rest day never breaks anything. A full week off is simply visible, which is what gets you back. Learn more
Can GymRhythm show me a year in review of my gym visits?
Yes. The year heatmap is a live year in review. Every auto-detected visit fills a square, and shareable stat cards summarize your total visits, streaks, and weekly rhythm whenever you want the recap. Learn more
Does location tracking drain my battery?
No. GymRhythm uses Apple's built in geofencing, so your iPhone wakes the app only when you cross your gym's boundary. There is no continuous GPS running in the background.
What about my privacy?
GymRhythm uses your location for one job: detecting visits to the gyms you pinned. You can read exactly what is collected and why in the privacy policy.
Which gyms does it work with?
Any gym you can find on a map, anywhere in the world. There are no partner chains and no QR codes. Pin the gym near home and the one near work, set a radius for each, and both count toward the same rhythm.
Is GymRhythm free?
GymRhythm is free to download, and the full experience is unlocked with a premium subscription. Right now the beta is completely free to try on TestFlight.

Show up. We'll handle the rest.

Set up takes under a minute. Your streak starts with your very next gym visit.
