Compass

Hevy Alternative

Switch from Hevy to Compass on iPhone.

Compass is a strong Hevy alternative for lifters who want a simpler iPhone tracker centered on logging speed, templates, PRs, and private history. Hevy CSV exports import directly into Compass.

Import Reality

Hevy users can move without losing training history.

Hevy CSV imports are auto-detected, with set type details such as warm-ups and superset groups mapped into Compass during import.
