## Review summary

Reviews consistently praise StrongLifts 5x5 for its simple, intuitive tracking and proven 5x5 program with clear progression. However, many users converge on a pricing issue: the move to a paid subscription, removal of the free tier, and loss of legacy lifetime purchases. The app remains a trusted tool for workouts and beginners, but the pricing model is the dominant negative theme.

### Pros

- Simple, straightforward interface that makes tracking effortless.
- Clear, effective 5x5 program structure with progression.
- Robust tracking features for weights and progress (fractional weights, plate calculations, logs).
- Long-standing, reliable tool that has been useful for years and widely recommended for beginners.

### Cons

- High cost and subscription model; perceived as expensive.
- No free tier or free features anymore.
- Loss of lifetime access for long-time users and past purchases not honored.
