Hevy serves as a weight-training log and planner across iOS, Android, the web, Apple Watch, and Wear OS. It captures sets, rest, routines, records, measurements, and progress charts. A free plan handles basic use, while Hevy Pro lifts key caps and includes Hevy Trainer.
What it does
Hevy captures weight-training sessions with warm-up, drop, and failure sets, rest periods, notes, and user-created exercises. It also builds routines, calculates estimated one-rep maxes, and charts workout progress.
The app connects athletes through follows, comments, likes, saved routines, and shared workouts. On hevy.com, users can plan routines, review progress, and see friends’ workouts; supported watches can keep recording without a connection.
On the wrist
Apple Watch and Wear OS are the supported watch platforms. Each can log workouts, synchronize routines, and handle sessions offline.
The facts do not name other watch platforms.
Getting started
After opening an account, pick a routine you make yourself or start with a body-part, beginner, or equipment-focused template. Log movements from the exercise library, which includes demonstrations, or add custom exercises.
Hevy offers both a no-cost tier and a trial period. The free account includes four routines, seven custom exercises, three months of graph history, and limited measurement tracking.
Strengths
Routine creation, workout logs, exercise history, personal records, estimated one-rep max, volume, muscle activity, frequency, consistency, body weight, and waist measurements are gathered in Hevy.
Hevy Pro includes Hevy Trainer for personalized programs, progressive-overload guidance, suggested weights and repetitions, and progress reports. Workout and measurement data can be exported for spreadsheet use, while the Strava integration can automatically share gym workouts.
Catches
The free tier allows four routines, seven custom exercises, three months of graph history, and limited measurements. Pro is needed for unlimited routines, custom exercises, graph history, measurement tracking, and Hevy Trainer.
New accounts start with public profiles, but Privacy & Social settings let users switch to private and curb social features. Hevy’s public API is available only to Pro users, and its documentation says the interface could change or be discontinued.
Pricing
The Free plan has no charge and carries the stated limits. Hevy Pro Monthly and PRO Monthly are $2.99 per month on monthly billing; both provide unlimited routines, custom exercises, and graph history with Hevy Trainer, while PRO Monthly also lists unlimited measurement tracking.
Hevy Pro Annual and PRO Yearly are priced at $23.99 per year with annual billing. PRO Yearly includes unlimited measurement tracking; the Hevy Pro Annual listing does not state that feature.
PRO Lifetime and Hevy Pro Lifetime each require a one-time $74.99 payment. Both list unlimited routines, custom exercises, and graph history with Hevy Trainer; PRO Lifetime also specifies unlimited measurement tracking.

The short of it
Hevy suits lifters seeking an organized log, routine planning, progress records, and community accountability on phones, browsers, and supported watches. Its free tier works for a small routine collection, though regular trainers can reach the limits. Pro becomes relevant for unlimited routines, extended graph history, measurement tracking, or Hevy Trainer. Review the default public-profile choice if you prefer less sharing, and remember that API use is reserved for Pro accounts.
