I get that, for Musklr I made signing in optional, social features completely optional. Works great offline. Caches animations and saves everything locally. So can set the app in flight mode. Just use an Apple Watch if you want. And everything will still work.
The app I built is simple. It has a list of major exercises and then a map of supporting accessory exercises. It will create a plan that is as long as I'd like for as many weeks as I'd like with a specific number of workouts per week alternating between upper and lower body.
Everything else is fluff I don't want. I want an app that is only a workout planner and tracker app. All the rest of it is a distraction and not useful for how I use apps and workout.
For me, the point of building this app is that I do not want to pay a subscription or any fee, and I want exercises / workouts / routines to be simple. The rest of it is noise, for me.
