About this app

Forte is a strength training app built for lifters who want real programming — not just a workout counter.

Follow structured programs (5×5, push/pull/legs, upper/lower, hypertrophy) coached week by week. Forte tracks every set and rep, auto-suggests progressive overload based on your last session, and adjusts rest timers to match the intensity of the work.

What’s new

Test Drive. Fourteen days of the paid tier. If you haven't started, the offer waits on Home for 30 days. Your first session starts the 14 days. Home shows days used. When it ends, you see what you trained, what stays free, and what locks. Keep training free, or continue at a price.
Offline Storage lists each kind of data on your device and its size. When a size isn't known, it reads as unknown. Clear All uses the actual size. If a clear doesn't finish, the screen says so.
