A Hevy alternative that also tracks what you eat
Hevy is a workout tracker with a free tier, a social feed, and watch apps. It does not list food or calorie tracking. DailyGoal logs strength workouts and food in the same iPhone and web app. Here is how they compare on published facts.
Written by the DailyGoal team, so we are not neutral. Every statement about Hevy below comes from Hevy's own website or app listing, links to that page, and shows the date we checked it. Prices and features change; check the source before you decide.
