Strong in short

A plain log with an Apple Watch app and a one-time Forever purchase. The downside: the free tier caps templates at 3, and we found no import from other apps.

Jefit in short

A large exercise library (1,400+) with a free logging tier. The downside: the Watch app, advanced analytics and ad-free use are Elite only, and $12.99 a month is high.

If a game is what you are missing

Neither app has a game layer. We make GYM RPG, which logs the same sets, reps and weight and adds XP, a skill tree and a party boss. It is not a drop-in for either app, because we have no import tool and you would start fresh.
