Stay Free if...
FREEYou want complete workout, run, routine, muscle-map, Health Connect, Wear OS, and basic insight tools, with no caps on workouts, runs, routines, or history.
One app, one optional extra
The free plan
is the app.
Kinoku brings workouts, runs, steps, and your own activities together in one private app. Pro is the one optional extra for people who want more, so nothing basic sits behind a paywall, and Google Play handles billing and local prices.

No tricks
The free plan is a complete app.
Kinoku's core training record runs on your phone. That keeps the free plan useful from day one: real logging, planning, history, and runs without a server bill attached to every session.
- +Zero ads, on every tier.
- +Workouts, routines, history, and runs have no caps.
- +No countdown clocks, no fake deadlines. Eligible new yearly customers can get a 14-day trial, and Google Play shows the renewal price before purchase.
- +The app never blocks workout saving or interrupts the recap. After some workouts, Today may show one occasional, dismissible Pro discovery card.
- +Want to try the paid layer? Train often and the Rewards system grants Pro time. No card.
How does this stay alive? People who want the deeper layer pay for it. That funds everything else.
A few notes
- + Google Play handles billing and shows the price in your local currency.
- + Pro leads with the yearly price, and monthly is a lighter option.
- + Eligible new customers can start yearly Pro with a 14-day free trial. Google Play confirms eligibility before purchase.
- + Pro also has a quiet one-time Lifetime buy, not the default pick.
