A RepCount alternative that actually counts your reps
RepCount is a solid gym log on iPhone and Android. Despite the name, you count the reps and type them in. MyRepsCount counts them for you through the phone camera.
The short answer
Stick with RepCount if…
- You lift at a gym and want a simple, mature log that works offline.
- You need many exercise types: assisted, weighted, timed holds, carries, cardio.
- You don't want an account. RepCount works without one.
Try MyRepsCount if…
- You want an app that counts the reps while you train.
- You work out at home with bodyweight, dumbbells, or kettlebells.
- You want guided workouts, Tabata, and AMRAP, not only a log.

Where RepCount is better
We make MyRepsCount, so here is the part most comparison pages leave out.
- Over a decade of polish as a gym log, with a 4.9 rating on both stores.
- More exercise types: assisted, timed holds, farmer's walks, and cardio.
- Works offline without an account.
- Pre-fills each set with last session's numbers, which makes logging fast.
How MyRepsCount counts your reps
-
Prop your phone up. Floor, shelf, or against a water bottle, with your whole body in frame. -
Train hands-free. The camera tracks your movement on the phone and counts each full rep. No video is recorded or uploaded. - Or log it by hand. Anything the camera can't count goes in the manual log, with weights, rep ranges, and supersets.
