Butt Lift vs 30 Day Butt Challenge
One app scores your reps as you do them; the other hands you a plan and trusts you to tick it off.
The Butt Lift teamUpdated 2026-08-13
Short answer
Pick Butt Lift if you want your reps counted and your form scored: the iPhone camera checks depth, tempo and control live, then builds a 28 day plan from your answers.
Pick 30 Day Butt Challenge Pro if you want a fixed plan handed to you, with diet plans, HealthKit sync and habit reminders, and you are fine ticking each day off yourself.
The short version
- Butt Lift uses the iPhone camera to count each rep and score it live on depth, tempo and control, with pose detection running on device and no video recorded, stored or uploaded.
- 30 Day Butt Challenge Pro runs pre-recorded video and still-image demos on a fixed 30 day plan, and you mark each day complete yourself.
- Butt Lift builds a 28 day plan from your onboarding answers: program, strength, weekly frequency, session length and focus areas, rather than one fixed plan for everyone.
- 30 Day Butt Challenge Pro runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac with Apple silicon and Apple Vision; Butt Lift is iPhone only because the training runs off the phone camera.
- Of the five apps compared here, Butt Lift is the one that checks the movement; the other four rely on you to self-report.

The one difference that decides this
Butt Lift measures the workout. 30 Day Butt Challenge Pro delivers one.
The iPhone camera counts each rep and scores it live on depth, tempo and control. Sloppy reps score lower and get a cue, and a clean streak drives the combo.
30 Day Butt Challenge Pro runs pre-recorded video and still-image demos inside a progressive 30 day plan.
You mark the day done yourself, and that tick is the only workout signal it gets.
Its HealthKit numbers, steps, weight and calories, come from your phone and the Health app, not from the set you just did.
Plan structure: built for you, or handed to you
Butt Lift builds a 28 day plan from your onboarding answers: program, strength, weekly frequency, session length and focus areas. It is not one fixed plan for everyone.
Three shape programs: Lift & Sculpt for upper glute lift, V-Shape Builder for side glutes and waist, Full Curve for balanced all round shape.
Ten glute exercises, sessions from about 5 to 25 minutes.
Equipment adapts, bodyweight through bands and dumbbells, and exercises reroute around flagged knees, hips, lower back or wrists.
30 Day Butt Challenge Pro runs the same progression for everyone, no equipment needed. That sameness is a feature if you want zero decisions, and a limit if your knees object to lunges.
Where 30 Day Butt Challenge Pro genuinely wins
Three places it beats Butt Lift outright.
Device reach: iPhone, iPad, Mac with Apple silicon and Apple Vision. Butt Lift is iPhone only, because the camera is the point.
Habit features around the workout: five named diet plans, a water reminder, weight and progress tracking, a transformation tracker, full HealthKit integration.
Simplicity: a video to copy and a box to tick is less to think about.
Rated 4.6 from roughly 1.2K ratings, at $2.99 a week or $37.99 for six months.
Why Butt Lift is different
Of the five apps compared here, Butt Lift is the one doing personalised glute training with automatic rep counting and form scoring. The other four rely on you to self-report.
Pose detection runs on device: no video is recorded, stored or uploaded. No account is required either.
The coach voice comes in three tones, Sweet, Sassy and Savage, with streaks and session ranks so the effort shows across the 28 days.
Free to download, with Butt Lift Pro unlocking the full plan. Butt Lift trains and measures. It does not promise a result.
Which one should you pick
Take 30 Day Butt Challenge Pro for a fixed 30 day plan, diet plans and habit reminders, especially on iPad, Mac or Vision. You are trusting yourself to do the reps properly.
Take Butt Lift for counted reps, scored technique, and a plan shaped around your strength, schedule and sore joints. You get told when a rep was not good enough.
Want a short offline routine with a timer and nothing else? Daily Butt Workout is the smaller answer.
Questions people ask
Can you cheat Butt Lift?
Not easily. Each rep is scored on depth, tempo and control, so half reps score lower and get flagged with a cue. In 30 Day Butt Challenge Pro you can mark a day complete without moving.
Does Butt Lift record me?
No. Pose detection runs on device. No video is recorded, stored or uploaded, and no account is required.
Does Butt Lift work on Silent?
You lose the spoken coaching, since the coach voice and cues are audio. Rep counting and form scoring carry on, because they come from the camera.
Is 30 Day Butt Challenge Pro better for beginners?
It is friendlier if you want zero decisions and a video to copy. Butt Lift suits beginners too, because the scoring tells you a squat was too shallow instead of leaving you guessing.
Do I need equipment for either?
No. 30 Day Butt Challenge Pro is a no-equipment plan. Butt Lift adapts to whatever you have, from bodyweight up to bands and dumbbells.
Which one works on iPad or Mac?
30 Day Butt Challenge Pro: iPhone, iPad, Mac with Apple silicon and Apple Vision. Butt Lift is iPhone only, because the training runs off the phone camera.
Train with something that actually watches
Five onboarding questions, a 28 day plan, and a camera that scores your first set.
Free to download. No account needed. Nothing is recorded or uploaded.
