MetriqFit vs Strong
Strong is a deliberately simple manual strength logger — one of the highest-rated gym apps there is, with a standout Apple Watch experience. It does not adapt your training or your nutrition. MetriqFit runs both as one loop, and is currently in TestFlight beta.
What Strong is best at
Frictionless manual logging: 4.9/5 from ~108,000 US App Store ratings, wrist-only workouts on Apple Watch, and a lifetime unlock in a subscription-heavy category.
Where MetriqFit differs
Progression is proposed for you from your logged sets, and calorie targets recalculate from your weigh-in trend — Strong leaves both decisions entirely to you.
Who should pick Strong
Anyone who wants the fastest manual logger, decides their own progression, and would rather pay once than subscribe.
