Barbell Calculator: W8r Pl8r for Android
Best thing ever for exhausted meatheads
This is simple and does the job perfectly. No advertising or dodgy permissions.
Simple and easy; exactly what I was looking for
If you know how much you want to lift, and you have plates in the same measurement system, it's simple math to figure out what plates to use. What this tool needs is conversions. I want to lift 200lbs, but I find myself in a gym that only had Olympic plates (in KGs). What plates do I use? If I have to download a second calculator to convert metric to imperial, what's the point?
This is sooo close to being perfect for me. The app does exactly what it says. Let's you figure out how much weight is on your bar or it tells you what plates to put on your bar. The UI looks clean. My gym has 15lb plates but that is not supported. It would be great to be able to add custom plate sizes. Also, the app prevents the use of the back button so I have to close it manual. Other than that, very functional
Can't add a plate, such as a 15lb. Can't switch to a 0lb single bar, for loading a calf raise with an odd number of plates. Too bright, needs a dark theme with black background. Long obnoxious intro screen when you are trying to get started, it should automatically calculate after inputting a weight and pressing done; the further need to press solve is pointless.
This was the third application I downloaded trying to get a simple counter for weights on and off the bar. This app does it. I have deleted the other 2 apps. I, like others, wish it had a 15lb weight and that the back button cleared the app instead of the home key.
Other apps limit the amount of weight you can put on the bar, this one doesn't.
Works exactly as it says. Back button fix would be nice (to exit the app) and 15 lb plates need to be added
It asks me which plates I have but not how many. I have a home gym and limited number of each plate.
I would give a 5 star review if you had 15 lb plates available! Most crossfit gyms have 15 lb plates.
Exactly what I wanted, but could use a 15# plate imperial option. My gym has these, I imagine others do too.
Helped my deadlift sets just now. Very very useful.
Just what I was looking for. Easy way to calculate how many plates I need. Get a 5* when I can close out of the app without pulling up my running apps
Been looking for this exact app for ages, works perfect.
I'm not totally math illiterate but when I'm working out I'd just like to get the players on and lift while I'm still in the zone / pumped. This takes care of the mental math party quite nicely.
Should have an exit feature.
Would be great if plates weight can be customized
Not the prettiest of apps but functionality is spot on :) Would like to be able to specify how many of each plate I have though...
I hate wasting my time in the gym calculating! This is prefect for what I needed.
Works, but needs more options for plates. It's missing 1kg, 1.5kg and 2kg plates. Also needs a 2.5kg collar option that's separate from normal plates.
Thanks for this
Works perfectly
Awesome
So far this is the only app of its kind where I can specify what plates are available. 5th star when I can exit using the back button. :)
Great way to figure out exactly which plates to use. Wish I could customize the available plates though, since we have 15 lb plates in our gym that don't get factored in.
Not the prettiest of apps but functionality is spot on :)
Exactly what I needed. Thank you.
Easy to use love it can we add 15lb weight
Of all similar apps I've tried this one is my fav.
4 stars since it reliably does what it is supposed to. That fifth star is reserved for when the app has been given a nicer UI. Looks really old school
I can't exit the app with the back button. I have to use the home button. Minor inconvenience, four solid stars.
This is exactly what I wanted, but the app does have a way to close one it's open. I have to pull up all ruining tasks and kill it. Please fix it for 5 stars.
Been looking for this for a long time thank you for saving me headaches! Now I don't have to spend 5 plus minuets counting plates and possibly missing weights because i'm trying to hurry to get things together! Thank you much!

I wanted a simple app where I could put in my desired weight, and it would tell me how many plates I need. This does that perfectly.
Could you add 0.75 and 1kg plates for those of us with access to microplates?
Does what it says. No BS!
Simple to use

So plain looking. And need more weigh options. Missing the 15lb and 5lb plates. When you have a max of 10 plates.... it makes a difference.....
