Comments on Starting Strength Official for Android

★★★★★ Ben Johns · Sep 11, 2026
EDIT: They fixed the legacy app! The (legacy) app was fine, but has inexplicably and suspiciously broke recently. I will not use this new app on principle.
★★★★★ Rob Bannister · Oct 2, 2026
The best barbell based program for strength training I've used in 40+ yrs of lifting.
★★★★★ Jason Jones · Aug 17, 2026
Have been doing the NLP by myself. Fantastic program. The app is extremely easy to use and having the tutorial is great before lifting, just to keep form fresh on the mind.
★☆☆☆☆ Ernesto Regalado · Sep 10, 2026
I had the old app which I paid money for and it worked fine. But they needed money, so they vibe coded a new app and deprecated the old app, so it won't open. So I'm not going to pay more money for another "lifetime" that is really only ten years.
★☆☆☆☆ julien st-pierre · Mar 16, 2026
Long time fan of the Original Starting Strength app. I can't recommend it enough. But this 2.0 version, is complete trash and 5X more expensive than the OG app. For the same features, with a much worse interface. OG app only needed slightly more customizable features. Like the ability to add the starting strength accessories like rack pulls, halting deadlifts, etc., for intermediate to advanced trainees. That was all that was needed. DO NOT waste any money on the 2.0 app! Get the OG app now!

Description by Shabu Pty Ltd Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Meet your AI Coach: ask training questions, log or adjust workouts by chat, and build your own program — right in the app. New for this release: Texas Method and Heavy Light Medium (HLM) for when novice progression runs out, plus the ability to save your own variation of any program.

JUST SHOW UP AND LIFT
• Novice Linear Progression with automatic weight increases every session
• The app calculates your work weights, warm-ups, and plate math for you
• Automatic stall detection with smart deload recommendations
• A/B workout rotation handled for you

PROGRAMS FOR WHEN YOU STOP ADDING WEIGHT
• Texas Method and Heavy Light Medium (HLM) built in for post-novice lifters, weights worked out for every session automatically
• Build your OWN program just by chatting with the AI Coach — "give me the Texas Method with rack pulls instead of deadlifts", "make my squats 5×5", "add chin-ups on day two" — it builds the whole week and tracks your progress from then on
• Save your own variation of any template and switch back any time

AI COACH (Pro)
• Ask anything about the method and get an instant, on-point answer
• Coming back after time off? Get the right weight for your first session back
• It reads your training log and gives you personalized advice
• Every change is shown to you first — nothing is logged or edited without a tap to confirm

SYNCS WITH HEALTH CONNECT
• Save your workouts and body weight to Health Connect (links up with Google Fit, Samsung Health and more)
• Weigh in on a smart scale or another app and your profile stays up to date on its own
• Off until you switch it on in Settings; your data stays on your device

GET BACK ON TRACK ON ANY PHONE
• Sign in when you set up a new phone and your workouts, settings and programs come back automatically — no re-entering starting weights

FORM CHECK FROM A REAL COACH (Pro)
• Send a video and a real Starting Strength coach reviews your technique
• Pay with Google Pay or card

TRACK EVERYTHING
• Full training log with searchable notes
• Plate math — see exactly which plates to load per side
• Rest timer with notifications so you never miss your next set
• Progress charts for PRs, volume trends, and projected gains

LEARN PROPER TECHNIQUE
• Step-by-step form guides for Squat, Press, Bench Press, Deadlift and Power Clean
• Coach-verified cues and 50+ FAQs on programming, nutrition and recovery

FLEXIBLE TRAINING
• Free Log mode for lifters beyond novice programming
• Custom plate setup for any gym
• Imperial and metric units
• Cloud backup so you never lose your training history

Find certified Starting Strength Coaches and Gyms near you, right from the app.

PRICING
• Monthly: $14.99/mo
• Yearly: $89.99/yr
• Lifetime: $179.99 one-time
Free features cover core novice programming and tracking; AI Coach, post-novice programs, custom programs and form check require Pro (marked above).
