Missing Fitocracy Android App

August 23, 2019 11:41 AM

This seems like a weird problem, but the Fitocracy app on the Google Play store appears to be... gone. I can't find word of why anywhere, and my bug report to Fitocracy has gone unanswered for a month. Is this just me? Does anyone have any idea what happened or if it's permanent?

Bonus question: what's the next best weightlifting-workout tracker app for Android? Bonus points if I can port data directly from the Fitocracy site (I've been using it since it was in beta!) I don't need anything else but lifting stuff - I can just use a spreadsheet, but easier entry/data visualization/any other features would be nice.

Best answer: Looks like it was sold in 2016 and just kinda petered out after: https://www.reddit.com/r/Fitocracy/comments/47t1zu/fitocracy_sold_to_unnamed_buyer_xenowang_leaving?sort=confidence

If you go to the subreddit itself, there are a sparse few posts between then and now, wondering what happened.

I don't know about Fitocracy, but I liked JeFit for tracking lifting. You can make custom exercises if there's stuff that's not in the large database.
