What is Taper?
A workout and body-composition tracker for lifters. Log your training and measurements, and Taper grades whether your bulk, cut, or recomp is actually working — from your own data.
Do I need to create an account?
No. Taper is local-first — your data lives on your device, and you can start without signing up. Cloud sync (iCloud on iOS, Google Drive on Android) is optional.
Is my data private?
Yes. Your logs, measurements, and photos stay on your device by default. We don't sell your data, sync is opt-in, and you can export everything at any time.
How does the muscle-vs-fat verdict work?
Taper reads three signals together — bodyweight, waist, and strength trends — and interprets them to tell you whether the weight you're gaining is muscle or fat, and whether a cut is costing you strength.
Do I have to measure my waist?
No. The verdict works from your bodyweight and strength trends alone. Adding a waist measurement makes it more precise, but it's optional.
Can I import my history from another app?
Yes. Import your workout history from Strong or Hevy in a few taps, with the option to revert an import if something looks off.
How much does Taper cost?
Free to log workouts and measurements. Taper Pro unlocks the full insight layer — the body-composition verdict, per-muscle grading, trends, and more — with a free trial.
How do I manage or cancel Pro?
Subscriptions are billed through your App Store or Google Play account and can be managed or cancelled anytime in your device's subscription settings.
