Gym Regular: Gym Attendance

Free, with no ads. No account, no cloud, everything stays on your phone. It counts your gym visits automatically. Your gym attendance calendar with auto check-in.

You put your gym on the map once. After that the app notices by itself when you were there and adds the visit to your workout calendar - no timer, no manual check-in, no sign-up. It answers two questions: how often was I at the gym, and what did I do last time?

Many apps that count gym visits automatically want an account, a subscription, or both, and your location ends up on their server. Gym Regular has no server. No account, no cloud, no ads, no analytics. Detection, history and export cost nothing, and that stays true.

Every workout gets a note, like a short gym journal: "Legs, tired. Earlier next time." Next time it shows up under "Last workout". Add one label from a list you create yourself: push, pull, legs, full body. Exercises, sets and weights are not in this app, not today and not later - there are better apps for that.

Built for consistency and accountability: you set a weekly goal of 1 to 7 training days. Your streak runs in weeks, not in days, so a rest day breaks nothing. Miss a week and a joker can save the streak. Ill or away? Record a pause, retroactively if you like: a paused week is not scored. That is how a gym habit sticks.

Is the membership worth it? Enter what you pay, and the app works out your cost per visit - from the gym visits it actually counted, not from a guess.

What the app does:

• Tracks gym visits automatically, even while the app is closed
• Gym calendar: week, month and year at a glance, like a heatmap
• Weekly goal tracker: 1 to 7 days, streak in weeks, joker and pause
• Several places: gym, pool, climbing hall, each with its own radius
• Training at home or outdoors counts as a training day, with no place
• "I am at the gym" as a manual check-in, where detection never fires
• When a stay is unclear the app asks instead of guessing
• History by place and training type, stats by month and year
• A Monday morning recap, and no reminders about lazy weeks
• Home screen widget showing the running week
• Backup file and CSV export, both triggered by you
• Light and dark appearance

It is made for anyone building a gym habit and wanting to see their own consistency: two evenings a week beside a job, the return after an injury. In short: a gym attendance tracker and days counter for training days - free, without an account and without ads.

About location, explained honestly: To detect visits, the app needs location access in the background; it does not send your location to any server. It is compared on the device against the places you set up and is not stored as coordinates. No routes, no movement profiles. It reaches the internet only while you set up or edit a place: map tiles and address search from OpenStreetMap, which sees the map section and your IP address. Your backup, CSV export and diagnostics bundle leave your phone only when you pass them on yourself.

And because it belongs here: Detection needs mobile data or Wi-Fi; with no reception you add a visit by hand with one tap. In basement gyms it sometimes never fires - then "I am at the gym" is the main path, and it counts exactly the same. Battery optimization from some manufacturers delays background runs. What the app notices, it tells you: a missing permission, a background run that stopped, an arrival that became no visit.

Gym Regular is built by me, an independent developer in Switzerland, and it belongs to no gym and no chain. If something is missing or broken: i.knezevic@gmx.ch. I actually reply.
