Four simple steps,
zero friction.

2 min readRead →Got questions?
Do I need to know how to train already?
Not at all. The starting questions figure out your level, every exercise comes with clear cues, and your first few workouts dial in your weights.
What if I don’t have a gym?
No problem. Nosta adapts to what you’ve got: dumbbells, bands or just your bodyweight, the program is built around your gear.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Everything is calculated on your iPhone, so your workout keeps going in a basement gym with no signal. Only purchases, the iCloud copy and a few anonymous usage stats go online, whenever there’s a connection.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Your workouts, weights and photos stay on your iPhone and in your own iCloud: no Nosta server ever receives them. No account required, no ads, no ad trackers. Only your subscription and anonymous usage stats leave the phone, and the privacy policy spells out exactly what.
How much does it cost?
There’s a monthly and a yearly plan, and the app shows the price for your country before you pay. The yearly plan starts with 7 days free if your Apple ID has never had a trial: if notifications are on, you’ll get a heads-up two days before it ends, and you pay nothing if you cancel before then. The monthly plan has no commitment. You manage everything from your iPhone’s settings.
What if I get a new iPhone?
Your progress is copied to your iCloud after every workout. On a new iPhone, sign back in with Apple and Nosta brings back your program and history. Your photos come back with Apple’s regular iPhone backup.
What languages is it in?
English, French and Spanish. It follows your iPhone’s language, and you can switch anytime from the Profile tab.
