Getting started
Which phones does it run on?
iPhone and Android. Download FitPilot from the App Store or Google Play.
Is FitPilot available in my country?
If you can find FitPilot in your App Store or Google Play, it is available where you are. It is not available in the UK at launch.
How old do I need to be?
You need to be at least 16 to use FitPilot.
I am new to lifting. Is it for me?
Yes. Start with a beginner split and log as you go. FitPilot suggests your next weights, and SmartCoach speaks up when something needs attention.
Training
What is RIR?
Reps in reserve: how many more reps you could have done with good form. FitPilot uses it to judge how hard a set was.
How does FitPilot suggest my next weight?
It compares what you planned with what you logged, then suggests more weight or more reps using your progression method, Microloading or Rotation.
Why is SmartCoach sometimes silent?
Because you are on track. SmartCoach only shows a cue when something in your log needs attention.
Does it know the machines at my gym?
FitPilot covers 5,700+ exercises across 79+ equipment brands. If yours is missing, add it as a custom exercise.
Can I change my split?
Yes. Choose Push Pull Legs, Upper Lower, Bro Split, Fullbody or a flexible schedule, and switch whenever your week changes.
Can I train with friends?
Yes. Add them as Gym Buddies, see who is training right now and invite them to today's session. After the workout, a shared overview shows both of you side by side.
What if something hurts?
Open the injury report and mark where it hurts, how much and during which exercises. It helps SmartCoach tailor its advice to you. It is not medical advice: for sharp or lasting pain, see a doctor or physical therapist.
Membership
Why is there no free version?
We would rather charge a fair price than show ads or lock features. You get 14 days of full access first, then choose monthly or annual.
Will I be charged during the trial?
No. The 14 days are free. Cancel before the trial ends in your store settings and you will not be charged.
How do I cancel?
In your App Store or Google Play subscription settings. You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for.
How do I restore a purchase?
Open the membership screen in the app and tap Restore purchases.
Privacy and data
What happens to my health data?
Body weight and injury logs are stored only with your explicit consent. You can withdraw consent in the app. The privacy policy has the details.
Can I delete my account?
Yes, from inside the app. This deletes your account and your training data. See how to delete your account.
