Straight answers.
Fourteen questions lifters ask before they trust an app with their log.
LOGGING
How fast is logging a set?
One tap. Every row starts filled in with your last set (or the suggested one on Pro), so logging a planned set is one tap on the check. Changing a number first is two or three taps on big plus and minus buttons. You never need the keyboard.
Does it work with no signal?
Yes, once Rackside is open. Sets wait on your phone and are sent when you are back online, and nothing is saved twice. Open Rackside before you lose signal: it is a web app, so the page has to be loaded.
Two tabs or two devices on one workout?
Both write to the same workout and nothing is lost. If you change the same set in both places, the later change wins everywhere.
PROGRAMS AND AI
What do the free programs include?
Three starters: Foundations Full Body, Push Pull Legs 3-Day and Upper Lower 4-Day. You can read every template for free; Pro unlocks running the rest.
How does the program generator work?
You choose a goal, days, session length and equipment. Rackside Pro writes one week of exercises from our library, then plain rules turn it into weeks. The result is checked against our library and guard rails (volume per muscle, rep ranges for beginners, session length) before you see it.
What if the generator fails?
You are not charged a generation. A failed or invalid program never counts against your monthly limit.
PRO AND THE TRIAL
What is free and what is Pro?
Free: unlimited logging, routines, history, PRs, the e1RM chart for the last 12 weeks and the three starter programs. Pro: the program generator, a suggested weight on every set, every template, all-time charts and weekly sets per muscle.
How does the 14-day trial work?
It is Pro free for 14 days with no card. It starts only when you tap Start free trial, and you get one trial per account.
What happens when Pro ends?
You keep everything you made: history, routines, PRs and any program you generated or started. Only creating new Pro things and the Pro views switch off.
BILLING AND CANCELLING
How much is Pro?
$8.99 a month, or $59.99 a year ($4.99 a month billed yearly).
How do I cancel?
Cancel any time in Manage billing, in Settings. Pro stays on until the end of the period you paid for.
DATA AND PRIVACY
Apple Health and watches?
No. Rackside has no Apple Health or watch integration. It is a web app, and body weight is entered by hand.
Who sees my workouts?
The owner's Members & growth tool shows your first name and your workouts, never your email.
Can I delete my account?
Yes, in Settings. It deletes your workouts, routines and programs and cancels any subscription at once, with no refund for the remaining period. Trial and payment records are kept.
