Is Plates a plate calculator app?
No. Plates is a workout journal. We share the name because we love the gym, but our focus is logging your history, not calculating bar loading.







We didn't build a website and wrap it in an app icon. Plates is 100% native iOS code. That means instant loading, zero lag, and haptic feedback that makes logging a set feel as satisfying as lifting it.

Bad gym WiFi? Doesn't matter.

Plates is a pure logbook. We don't clutter the app with social feeds or unnecessary AI features. Just a clean, organized history of your work so you can make your own decisions.
A notebook can’t tell you if you’re stalling. Plates can. We track your volume, intensity, and estimated 1RM in the background, giving you the insights you need to apply progressive overload.
Your gym membership is a subscription. Your workout log shouldn't be.
