A free Jefit alternative
Jefit packs a huge exercise database and a lot of features — along with ads and paywalls on the free tier. Katado strips it back to what most lifters actually use: fast logging and a clean history, with no ads and no paywall on your own data.
| Katado | Jefit | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free, no ads | Free (ads) + Elite |
| Ads | None | Yes on free tier |
| Platform | Any browser — phone, tablet, desktop | Apps + web |
| Account required | No — start instantly | Account-based |
| Logging speed | Two taps, wheel — no keyboard | More taps, heavier UI |
| Interface | Clean and focused | Feature-heavy |
| Exercise database | Curated set | Very large |
| Works offline | Yes | Yes |
| CSV export | Not yet | Elite |
Switch if Jefit feels cluttered or the ads and paywall wear on you, and you want fast, clean, genuinely free logging that opens in any browser.
Stick with Jefit if you lean on its very large exercise library and built-in routines — that breadth is Jefit's strength, while Katado is intentionally a lean logger.
Katado is free with no card and nothing to install, so you can try it in a single session.
