Best Planet Fitness Alternatives in 2026

By App Store Tracker Editorial · Updated — App Store ratings fetched to

The short version

The Planet Fitness app handles gym check-in, workouts, exercise videos, and progress tracking for members. Most close matches are regional Planet Fitness apps for Australia, South Africa, and Spain that do the same job locally. For workout tracking without a gym tie, Gymstar logs sessions and progress. Pure Fitness offers a comparable flexible-gym experience. Pick based on whether you need your specific club's app or a standalone tracker.

People look for Planet Fitness app alternatives when they are outside the U.S., when they want a workout tracker that is not tied to one gym, or when they want a different club's app. Every pick below shares part of Planet Fitness's purpose: digital gym check-in, class booking, guided workouts, and progress tracking. Several are official Planet Fitness apps for other countries, others are gyms or standalone trackers. We ranked them by embedding similarity to the U.S. Planet Fitness app, then weighed live App Store ratings and review counts so the more established, better-reviewed apps surface first. Most tie to specific clubs, so pick the one matching where you train.

    #1Pure Fitness US

    PureGym

    4.8(1.3K)
    91% similar
    Get on App Store

    Why it's similar

    Pure Fitness shares Planet Fitness's flexible-gym model, a commitment-free, 24-hour, judgement-free fitness center with an app for managing your membership and workouts. Both welcome all and keep things affordable and accessible. It rates 4.76 across 1,343 ratings.

    How it differs

    Pure Fitness is a separate gym chain, not Planet Fitness, so its locations and membership differ. The app experience is comparable, so it suits people training at Pure Fitness clubs rather than serving as a Planet Fitness substitute.

    Why it's similar

    Zone Fitness Clubs shares Planet Fitness's member-app features, profile and progress management, class booking, custom workout plans, and QR-code digital gym access. Both let your phone act as your membership card.

    How it differs

    Zone Fitness is a separate gym chain in its market, not Planet Fitness, and it has no App Store ratings yet, leaving it unproven. It serves Zone members, so it suits people training at those clubs rather than replacing the Planet Fitness app.

  5. 5Planet Fitness - Gymstar icon

    Hotograph Ltd

    4.5(21)

    Get on App Store

    Why it's similar

    Gymstar shares Planet Fitness's workout-tracking side, logging gym and home workouts with AI auto-logging, progress history, and social motivation across many training styles. Both help you track activity and stay on course. It rates 4.48.

    How it differs

    Gymstar is a standalone workout tracker not tied to any gym membership or check-in, unlike Planet Fitness's club-linked app. With only 21 ratings it is small, so it suits people who want flexible workout logging anywhere over Planet Fitness's club-specific features.

    Why it's similar

    PFC Club shares Planet Fitness's coaching ambition, customized workout and nutrition plans tailored to your body, lifestyle, and goals for sustainable results. Both aim to guide your fitness journey.

    How it differs

    PFC Club is a personalized coaching service, not a gym check-in app like Planet Fitness, and it serves the Indian market. It has no App Store ratings yet, leaving it unproven, so it suits people wanting custom coaching plans over Planet Fitness's club access.

  7. 7Planet Fitness Play icon

    #7Planet Fitness Play

    Planet Fitness Wellness Ltd

    1.2(5)
    93% similar
    Get on App Store

    Why it's similar

    Planet Fitness Play shares the app's wellness-companion goals, personalized nutrition plans, exercise programs, and tracking to reach your fitness goals. Both aim to support your health journey beyond the gym floor.

    How it differs

    Planet Fitness Play is a separate wellness app, not the main club check-in tool, and its 1.2 rating across 5 ratings makes it the lowest and least proven here. It leans on meal and workout plans rather than gym access, so it complements the main app rather than replacing its core features.

  8. 8Planet Fitness AU icon

    Why it's similar

    Planet Fitness AU shares the app's club-management features, QR check-in, class booking, club details, attendance history, and membership info. Both keep your gym experience on your phone. It rates 1.

    How it differs

    This is a newer Australian Planet Fitness app built on a third-party platform, and its single 1-star rating makes it essentially unproven. It serves Australian clubs, so it applies only there, making it a regional tool rather than a U.S. Planet Fitness alternative.

    How it differs

    This app serves a South African Planet Fitness event experience and has no App Store ratings yet, leaving it unproven. Its features tie to that specific market and festival-style village, so it suits attendees there rather than replacing the U.S. Planet Fitness app.

    How it differs

How we ranked these 10 alternatives

Embedding similarity

Every app in our database carries a dense vector embedding derived from its title, subtitle, full description, and category metadata. To find apps similar to Planet Fitness, we compute cosine distance against every other app and keep the closest 30. The similarity score shown on each pick is 1 - distance/2 clamped to [0,1] — 100% means the embedding spaces are identical, 0% means orthogonal.

Ranking

Apps from Planet Fitness's own developer are left out. The 10 most similar of the rest are ordered by App Store rating times the logarithm of their rating count, so a 4.8-star app with 100,000 ratings ranks above a 4.5-star app with 200 ratings.

Data dates

The similar-app list was computed on May 25, 2026. Ratings are the latest US App Store fetch for each app, taken between November 4, 2026 and November 9, 2026. Prices and update dates come from Apple when the page is built.
