Compare · Ray alternative
A Ray alternative that runs on Android, too.
VeraForma runs on Android, on iPhone in your browser and on the web. It starts free, and stays free for good.
Why people switch
What you get on VeraForma.
Ray is built for iPhone. If you train on an Android phone, or want a free plan that never runs out, VeraForma is your personal trainer and nutrition coach in one app, on whatever you have.
Just start moving.
No other app we could find lets you just start moving, names the exercise from your phone's camera mid-set, and, once you tap to confirm, checks your form on it.
A trainer's screen first.
Brad's questions and one squat on camera, front and side. You get the faults a trainer would name, your posture marked up, and a programme built from what it finds.
Food is part of the plan.
A meal plan built from your numbers and your training, and food logging by search, barcode or photo, free.
VeraForma beside Ray, row by row.
Every Ray cell has a numbered source below. Not found = not in the store listings or vendor pages we read. Partly = it does some of it, as the note says.

Questions
Before you switch.
I have an Android phone. Can I use VeraForma?
Yes. Get it on Google Play, or open veraforma.app in any browser. On an iPhone, open veraforma.app in Safari and start today; the App Store app is in Apple's review.
Does it count my reps for me?
Yes. The camera form watch counts your reps out loud and shows the common standing faults on screen, free.
Is there a real trainer behind it?
Brad Glaser: NASM Master Trainer, NASM-CPT, CES, PES, 20+ years, has certified 100+ personal trainers. His in-person method is built into the app, and with Premium + on the website he is on your side himself.
