Plan the work
A session starts as a plan — the lifts, the sets, and the loads for today in one quiet view. No feed to scroll past first.
In development · iOS & Android
Built like you train.
goodLift is a strength-training app being built by GoodApps: deliberate, offline-first, and tested before it's trusted — not rushed to a store listing.

Concept preview
The session, up close.
A conceptual look at where goodLift is heading — early interface directions rendered on a generic device, not screenshots of a finished app.
Stay in the set
Mid-session, the screen holds only what matters: the set in front of you. A finished set is written to your device before anything depends on a network.
Watch it add up
Sessions become a quiet record of progress — kept on your device and carried forward through every schema change, never wiped.
No noise.
No gimmicks.
Just the work.
Most training apps chase engagement. goodLift is being built around one session at a time — software that gets out of the way of the set in front of you.
Designed around the set in front of you.
The core job is recording strength work clearly — what you did, how much, and how it connects to the last time you did it. Everything else is being built in support of that, not instead of it.
What we won't compromise on.
Recorded before it syncs
A completed set is written to the device first. Network conditions never get to decide whether your work was saved.
Your history isn’t disposable
Training data moves forward through versioned migrations. It is never wiped to make room for a new schema.
iOS and Android, evenly
One codebase, one native runtime foundation, built and tested for both platforms from the first commit — not one platform first.
Slow, deliberate scope
Strict typing, tested behaviour, and native checks gate every change. Features are added only once they’re ready to be trusted.
Where it actually stands.
We'd rather show real status than a polished mockup. Here's what's built, and what's still an open decision.
Built
- Native iOS and Android runtime, with development-build workflow
- On-device SQLite, versioned from the first migration
- Strict TypeScript, linting, and Jest across the codebase
- Native smoke testing on real builds via Maestro
Still open
- The training model — sessions, exercises, sets, and rest handling
- Progress and history, and how personal records are calculated
- Accounts, cloud sync, and whether one is required at all
- Final visual identity, onboarding, and navigation
Questions.
Is goodLift available yet?
No. goodLift is in active development. The engineering foundation — native builds, on-device storage, and testing — is in place; the training experience itself is still being designed.
Which platforms will it support?
iOS and Android, from the same codebase, built and tested together rather than one platform following the other later.
Will it work without an internet connection?
Recording your training is being built offline-first: a finished set is saved to your device before anything depends on a network connection.
What will it cost?
Pricing hasn’t been decided. We’ll say so clearly here once it has.
Who is making it?
GoodApps — the studio behind GoodTodo, an offline-first todo app currently in beta. goodLift follows the same approach: careful engineering before feature promises.

goodLift doesn't have a release date yet. In the meantime, GoodApps already ships GoodTodo — see how we build before you wait on this one.
