App comparison
Boostcamp vs Hevy: free programs or clean social logging?
Boostcamp wins attention by bundling a large free program library with tracking. Hevy wins users who want a polished gym log with community features.
The choice is not just price. It is whether you want the app to supply the program or stay out of the way while you run your own.
| Feature | Boostcamp | Hevy | Edge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Program library | Official pages claim 11,000+ free programs | Routine logging and library features, not the same free-program catalog | Boostcamp |
| Tracker | Full tracker included free per Boostcamp | Strong routine/custom/history limits between free and Pro | Tie |
| Advanced analytics | Pro adds advanced analytics and premium tools | Pro adds advanced tracking and warm-up calculator | Tie |
| Social features | Program/community oriented | Social feed and friend sharing are core | Hevy |
| Best fit | Lifters picking proven programs | Lifters running and sharing their own routines | Tie |
Where Boostcamp wins
- Boostcamp is stronger when the user wants a proven program without hunting spreadsheets.
- The official free page makes a clear claim around free programs and full tracking.
- It is attractive for lifters who want program discovery more than social logging.
Where Hevy wins
- Hevy is stronger as a polished, social-first workout log.
- Hevy's Strong import path matters for users switching from Strong.
- It may be simpler if you only need a handful of routines and do not care about a program marketplace.
The biggest difference is the starting point
Boostcamp starts with programs. Hevy starts with logging. That difference shapes the app experience more than any single feature row.
If you already have a plan, a huge program library can be noise. If you do not have a plan, it can be the whole reason to install.
Free claims need current checks
Boostcamp's official free page currently makes unusually strong claims about free programs and core tracking. Its Pro page positions analytics and premium tools as the paid layer.
Hevy's help center documents free limits around routines, custom exercises, and data history. Both can change, so this page should be refreshed regularly.
