Butt Lift vs 7M Butt Workout: which one counts your reps
One app measures your reps. The other trusts you to log them.
The Butt Lift teamUpdated 2026-08-13
Short answer
Butt Lift is the pick if you want your glute work measured: the iPhone camera counts every rep and scores depth, tempo and control, and onboarding builds a 28 day plan from your answers.
7M Butt Workout wins on simplicity, with short at-home routines and a 4.8 rating from 62K ratings. It verifies nothing. Measurement or convenience, pick one.
The short version
- Of the two apps compared, only Butt Lift measures the work: the iPhone camera counts each rep and scores it on depth, tempo and control.
- Butt Lift builds a 28 day plan from your onboarding answers, covering program, strength, weekly frequency, session length and focus areas.
- 7M Butt Workout is free, rated 4.8 from 62K ratings, and never states how a session is delivered; progress is whatever you log yourself.
- Butt Lift's pose detection runs on device, and no video is recorded, stored or uploaded.
- For barbell gym programming, Fitbod suits you better than either; for a named trainer and a community, Sweat does.

The short verdict
Want to know whether the rep you just did actually counted? Of the two, only Butt Lift measures anything. The camera scores depth, tempo and control as you go.
Want to open an app, follow something short and get on with your day? 7M Butt Workout is the lighter, cheaper start.
Measurement and progression on one side. Convenience and volume of routines on the other.
How the two actually work
7M Butt Workout comes from Fast Builder Limited, rated 4.8 from 62K ratings, iOS 16 or later. The listing promises quick routines, a progress tracker and Apple Health sync.
It never states how a session is delivered, and claims no camera or sensor use at all. Progress is whatever you tell it you did.
Marking a workout complete is the entire accountability layer. That is fine, until you want to know if your hips were actually moving.
Butt Lift runs a guided live session instead. Every rep is counted and scored, and sloppy reps get flagged with a cue rather than quietly logged as done.
Onboarding sets your program, strength, weekly frequency, session length and focus areas, then builds a 28 day plan around them.
Where 7M Butt Workout genuinely wins
Breadth, and zero friction. A hotel room, no kit, no thinking: it does that better, and 62K ratings at 4.8 says people keep coming back.
It is also the better fit if being scored would put you off. Some people train more consistently when nothing is watching.
Apple Health integration is on the listing too, so finished sessions land alongside the rest of your activity data.
Why Butt Lift is different
It is built for personalised glute training with automatic rep counting and form scoring. Of the six apps compared here, none of the others do that.
Pose detection runs on device. No video is recorded, stored or uploaded. The camera is a sensor, not a recorder.
Three shape programs: Lift & Sculpt for upper glute lift, V-Shape Builder for side glutes and waist, Full Curve for balanced shape.
Ten glute focused exercises, from glute bridge and hip thrust to fire hydrant and curtsy lunge.
It works with what you have, bodyweight through to bands and dumbbells, and reroutes around flagged knees, hips, lower back or wrists.
Sessions run from about 5 to 25 minutes, chosen in onboarding. Coach voice in Sweet, Sassy or Savage, plus streaks and session ranks. No account required.
Which one should you install
Pick 7M Butt Workout if your problem is starting. Short, free, undemanding, and self-reporting suits you fine.
Pick Butt Lift if your problem is quality. Weeks of glute work and you still cannot tell whether your form is the reason nothing feels different.
In a gym with barbells and want the programming solved? Fitbod answers that better than either. Want a named trainer and a community? Sweat does.
Nothing stops you having both. A measured session three times a week, a five minute filler on the other days.
Questions people ask
Can you cheat the rep counter?
Not usefully. Butt Lift scores each rep on depth, tempo and control, so half-reps and rushed ones score lower and get a cue.
Your clean rep streak drives the combo, so cheating costs you the thing you are chasing.
Does Butt Lift record me on camera?
No. Pose detection runs on device, and no video is recorded, stored or uploaded. The camera is a sensor, not a recorder.
Is 7M Butt Workout free?
Free to download from the App Store, from Fast Builder Limited, rated 4.8 from 62K ratings, iOS 16 or later. Butt Lift is also free to download, with Butt Lift Pro unlocking the full plan.
Do I need equipment for either?
No. Both work with bodyweight. Butt Lift also adapts to bands and dumbbells if you have them, and reroutes exercises around flagged knees, hips, lower back or wrists.
Does Butt Lift work with the phone on silent?
Coaching is voice-led, in Sweet, Sassy or Savage, so you will want sound on for the cues. Rep counting and scoring are visual and keep working either way.
Do I have to make an account?
Not for Butt Lift. No account required, so you start straight from onboarding.
If your problem is form, not motivation
Butt Lift builds a 28 day plan from your answers and scores every rep against it. Free to download, no account needed.
