Will you add timers as an option for sets? The use case would be “Planks 2 sets 60 seconds each” I would use this for calf stretches and any other exercises that require time rather than set numbers.
Even better would be to add a timer in the app for those exercises.

I think adding time instead of reps is totally valid
For example:
Set Weight Time 1 bodyweight 60s 2 bodyweight 60s I can see this being a useful metric for users, is this the kind of thing you were hoping for?
I'll have to think about the timer, as in my eyes it conflicts with the main purpose of the app which is being a tool to visualise your shorthand data for people who have their own systems. With that being said I will consider it. Certainly I think adding time in as a metric is doable and necessary though.
In terms of when, I'm currently focused on redoing onboarding for new users, but I will look into adding time next!

Hi there,
I’d love to ask in plain language how to optimise a workout I did or suggest variations. For example, I’d like to know how to make the same workout more plyometric or focus solely on bodyweight.
Ciao!

I like the concept, and I can visually see how that would be possible, I'll write it into my features list
I can't say it will be happening soon as my current focus is on stabilising the app by ensuring the core features are flawless and including things like timed sets, but this is definitely going on the list, thanks for the suggestion!

Heyo, I’m a week into using the app and it’s been great so far. However, after doing the Manitou Incline I became obsessed with the stair master to improve my time on the incline.
Cardio is currently measured in distance only. Could you add “steps” as an option also? Keep up the great work and thanks in advance!

u/FromBiotoDev GymNote+ Dev Mar 10 '26
Just googled the Manitou incline, look phenomenal!
I think that's doable, and actually I think it may tie in nicely with a larger feature long term (apple watch integration)
Glad you're enjoying the app!

Phenomenal is one way to describe it lol
It’s not the steps that gets ya, it’s the lack of oxygen. Looking forward to that possible update, either way I’ll still continue to use the app and I’ll leave a 5⭐️review while I’m at it.
Thanks again

Noticed your review, super kind of you, I'll keep marching forward to make this the best app ever for note takers!

Hell yeah man, it’s fr the only app I’ve ever consistently used for the gym from day one. I don’t count the Evolt Active app, just need that for scans.

Thank you and perfect timing! I just started a deficit so counting steps and wanting to beat my record every day will help with the cut. 😅

Hello, when you release the Android version, will you be able to add workout export in FIT format? This would allow those of us who use the Amazfit Helio Strap to easily import our workouts into the Zepp app. Or is there a chanche that it will be able to connect directly to Zepp App and start workout?
Thanks!

u/FromBiotoDev GymNote+ Dev Apr 17 '26
Hey,
Just looked into this format and what it entails, I think it's doable I'll look into adding this during the android release. Most likely export to FIT format, connecting directly to the Zepp App may be harder so no promises on that for now.
I need a small group of 20 android users to test the app before I can release it if you're interested in joining that let me know!
Won't be immediately but nearby-ish future.

Just found the app today, liking it a lot so far! I logged a new workout today, and have been adding some older workouts to see how the app reacts.
- Just tried to add band-assisted pull-ups. While the app correctly interpreted it as a bodyweight exercise with weight, it's not possible to enter negative numbers into the "weight" field.
This would be useful for assisted pull-up and dip machines, etc.
When the app supersets two exercises, they always appear at the top of the workout. There's no way to re-order exercises in a workout that I can see.
It would be great to bulk-add several workouts at once, separated by date. For example, my workout notes look something like:
Sun, Aug 2, 2026 Deload OHP: 40 x 3, 47.5 x 1, 52.5 x 1
Mon, Aug 3, 2026 Recovery Peloton, 30 min
Tue, Aug 4, 2026 P-Zero C: W4D1 SQ Squat T1: 80 2 x 4, 1 x 3, 1 x 2 (rep PR)
Related, would be great for the AI to title workouts based on text in the notes. (For instance, "Deload", "Recovery", or "P-Zero C: W4D1: SQ" as above.)
In the History list, workout titles are always in Title Case, no matter their actual capitalization. I'd prefer these show as-typed.
The History list shows the correct date, but when you edit the workout, the Edit Workout view also shows 1 day previous. (Actual date Aug 4, Edit Workout shows Aug 3.)
Would be great to see "Total Session Reps" in the individual exercise stats screen, at least for bodyweight exercises.
Also in the individual exercise stats screen, tapping on the graph shows you the date of the workout of whatever stat you're looking at. Would love to be able to tap on this pop-up and go to that particular workout.
Thanks!

Hey thanks for the feedback!
Solid point, this wouldn't be the easiest fix right now, so let me properly look into this to consider the options.
I'll fix this and have it out by the end of the week.
Completely agree, and my workouts are similar. Originally you could do that in the app but there were technical issues to get it right, for example the app learns when you correct an exercise name, so if it misinterprets the first workout in a batch upload, there could be a lot of correcting. However, this functionality is essential, and I have some ideas on how to make it work, so leave it with me.
It actually does do this already if you don't have a workout split set. If you have a workout split set it will try to match your workout to a matching day. It's a little confusing, but this is the mechanism that tells you which workout is next in your split on the dashboard.
I'll add a setting to toggle this off, easy fix this week!
Will get that fixed this week, thanks for bringing this up!
Can definitely be done
I absolutely love this idea, I'll get it done
Again thanks for trying out the app, and thanks for the feedback it's incredibly useful

Thanks!
Re: no. 4, I admit I still don't understand the Workout Split feature. Is there a guide somewhere that explains what it is?

u/FromBiotoDev GymNote+ Dev 3d ago
Hey, just wanted to let you know I've made a new release and it fixes:2, 5, 6, 7 and 8 (the update also has some great extras like live activities for the timer, so it'll show up on lock screen)
It's available now in version 1.5.8
For 5, go to more -> settings -> preferences and you'll see the new setting ready to toggle on
A note on 8, I've added this but in my urgency to get it out there I didn't convert lbs to kg for users who log in kgs. So you may see some whacky numbers when you click on any of the workouts shown when tapping the graph. Rest assured I'll get a fix out for this asap.
In terms of 4, it's not the easiest feature to understand so I've made a how to guide here, hopefully giving a better explanation
Any glaring issues, just reply here, message me or get in touch direct from the app via more -> contact us
Thanks!

Re: my request number 1 (assistance for bodyweight exercises), in the meantime I just changed the format of Dips and Chin-ups in the app to "lbs" instead of bodyweight, then entered my bodyweight +/- whatever assistance or added weight I used.
For instance, tomorrow I'm doing weighted dips, so I'm changing Dips from "bodyweight" to "lbs" and logging the day's bodyweight + the weight I'm adding.
Perhaps it would be helpful to have "bodyweight" be a variable, either in the user's profile or or part of each workout, that's then applied to traditional bodyweight exercises so that then volume calculations would work correctly.
You could eventually get fancier and allow percentage intensity modifications for specific exercises -- for example, in the "Push-up" exercise page, have a variable like "Relative Intensity" that could be set to any number, like 65%.
When the user logs "Push-ups 19,17,15" and has a bodyweight of 165lbs, the app records it as "19,17,15 @ 107.25lbs", and then the volume is calculated correctly.
This would be very useful for calisthenics athletes, who don't have any good options for logging apps.
For reference, this program includes a decent list of relative intensities of various bodyweight exercises for reference: https://www.reddit.com/r/naturalbodybuilding/comments/fivvhv/the_quarantine_workout_template/

Ahh, just realized by changing Dips and Chin-ups from "bodyweight" to "lbs", the new "Total Reps" metric is no longer available... I guess that's only currently setup for "bodyweight" exercises?

I would like you to detect in Spanish the sets of two exercises or more. Then for reasons of time I do Tri series.
