About
A lifting app that respects your history.
Maxtopia started because every serious lifting app either priced like SaaS, sold data to advertisers, or held your training history hostage behind a subscription that had to keep going forever. This is the version that doesn't do any of that.
Why I built it
Logging a set should take one tap. Programs should travel between apps. You should be able to buy an app once and own it. Nothing about that is radical — it's how software used to work.
Maxtopia is a small bet that lifters remember what a real app feels like: fast, private, portable, and priced honestly. $1.99 a month if you want to try it, $19.99 once if you want it forever.
What we stand for
Two honest prices
$1.99 a month or $19.99 once. Both unlock the whole app. No trial dark patterns, no upgrade tiers, no bait-and-switch.
You own your data
Every scrap of your training history exports to a portable, CC0-licensed .maxtopia file. Leave whenever, take it with you, and nothing about the leaving is punitive.
Privacy by architecture
Your training history lives on your device. HealthKit stays on-device unless you turn on sharing. No third-party analytics SDKs baked in.
Built once, built well
Solo builder, long horizon. I'd rather ship one perfect logging screen than five half-finished tabs. If a feature is in the app, it works on the first tap.
How it's built
Native apps on iOS and Android, a first-class web client, and a Cloudflare-hosted backend that scales globally without a server room. The whole platform runs on infrastructure that costs pennies per user — which is how we can afford to keep the lifting core free forever.
