Can I use these tools on my phone during a workout?

Yes. All tools are mobile-friendly and designed to be quick to use between sets or during class.

How accurate are the rep max estimates?

Rep max estimators use well-established formulas (Epley, Brzycki) that are reliable within a reasonable range. They work best with sets of 1 to 10 reps. For higher rep ranges, accuracy decreases slightly.
