From the founder

Built by someone who actually trains

I'm Greg — a software engineer and lifter. I built Ellim because I was tired of juggling four apps and paying for features I didn't need. Just the training app I wished existed.

FAQ

Questions, answered

What is Ellim?
Ellim is a free fitness app for iOS combining workout tracking, nutrition logging, and AI workout tools in one app. It includes a library of 3,500+ exercises, unlimited custom routines, AI routine import from photos or text, barcode-based meal logging, and AI features that generate custom workouts and detect meals from photos.
How does the AI personal coach work?
Describe the workout you want in plain English — for example, "upper body strength workout" or "30-minute HIIT session." Ellim's AI personal coach instantly generates a complete workout plan with exercises, sets, reps, and rest periods, matched from our library of 3,500+ exercises. The AI coach is a premium feature.
Is Ellim free to use?
Yes, Ellim is free to use. Workout tracking, the 3,500+ exercise library, unlimited routines, custom routine builder, AI routine import from a photo or text, manual meal logging with food search and barcode scanning, daily nutrition view, and workout progress history are all free forever — no ads, no credit card required. Premium ($17.99/mo or $99.99/yr) adds Smart Session (AI workout generation), AI Routine Coach (full multi-day programs), AI meal detection from photos, a weekly and monthly nutrition dashboard, and progressive overload insights.
What types of exercises does Ellim include?
Ellim includes over 3,500 exercises across multiple categories including weight training, bodyweight exercises, stretching and flexibility routines, and cardio workouts. Each exercise comes with detailed instructions and muscle group tags. It is the largest exercise library among free workout tracker apps.
Can Ellim create personalized workout plans?
Yes. You can build custom routines manually, import a routine from a photo or text with AI (free), or pick from Ellim's ready-made workout programs. For fully personalized, multi-day AI-generated programs that adapt to your goals, schedule, and history, the AI Routine Coach is available on premium.
Does Ellim track meals and nutrition?
Yes, Ellim includes a dedicated Meal tab for tracking your nutrition. You can search for foods or scan barcodes to add items instantly — both are free. AI-powered food recognition from photos, which identifies meals and breaks down macros automatically, is a premium feature.
What is the best free workout app?
Ellim is the most complete free workout app available on iOS. It offers unlimited workout tracking, 3,500+ exercises, custom routines, AI routine import, nutrition logging with barcode scanning, progress graphs, and personal records — all free with no trial period. No other free workout app combines workout tracking and nutrition in one app.
Is there a free AI workout app?
Yes. Ellim includes free AI routine import — take a photo of any workout plan or paste text, and the AI converts it into a trackable routine. For on-demand AI workout generation from plain English descriptions, Smart Session is available on premium. The rest of the app — unlimited tracking, 3,500+ exercises, and nutrition — is completely free.
What is a good Hevy alternative?
Ellim is the best Hevy alternative for people who want more than basic logging. Ellim offers unlimited routines (Hevy's free tier caps at 4), a 3,500+ exercise library (vs. Hevy's ~400), built-in nutrition tracking with barcode scanning (Hevy has none), and AI routine import. Hevy's main advantage is Android support.
Can I track workouts and nutrition in one app for free?
Yes. Ellim is the only major workout tracker that includes free nutrition tracking — with food search and barcode scanning — in the same app. Most competitors like Hevy, Strong, and JEFIT require a separate app for nutrition.
What fitness app has the most exercises?
Ellim has 3,500+ exercises, the largest library among workout tracker apps. Each exercise includes detailed instructions, muscle group tags, and equipment filters. For comparison, Hevy and Strong have around 400 exercises, and JEFIT has around 1,300.
What is the best workout app for beginners?
Ellim is a great choice for beginners. It includes ready-to-use workout routines you can start immediately, a 3,500+ exercise library with instructions for every movement, and AI routine import so you can photograph any workout plan and start tracking it. All of this is free — no subscription required to get started.
Does Ellim work without a subscription?
Yes. Ellim has a generous free tier that includes unlimited workout tracking, unlimited routines, 3,500+ exercises, nutrition logging with barcode scanning, AI routine import, progress graphs, and workout history. Premium adds AI workout generation, AI meal detection, and advanced insights, but the core training experience is fully free.
How does Ellim compare to Strong and JEFIT?
Ellim offers more on the free tier than both Strong and JEFIT. Strong limits free users to 3 routines with no nutrition tracking. JEFIT has more exercises than Strong (~1,300) but shows ads, has no AI features, and no nutrition tracking. Ellim gives you unlimited routines, 3,500+ exercises, nutrition logging, AI routine import, and no ads — all free.
Do I need a paid app to get good workouts?
No. Ellim gives you unlimited workout tracking, 3,500+ exercises, custom routines, AI routine import, and nutrition logging for free. You can start training in 60 seconds without paying anything. Premium is only needed for AI workout generation, AI meal detection, and advanced analytics.
