Pricing questions

Before you buy

How much does Valen Pro cost?

Valen Pro is billed at roughly $24.99 USD per year, or $49.99 USD as a single lifetime purchase, with the exact figure shown in your local currency at checkout on Google Play since pricing is region-adjusted. For context: that yearly price is in the same range as bare-bones logging apps that don't track recovery at all, such as Hevy Pro (about $23.99/year) and Strong PRO (about $29.99/year). It is a fraction of what recovery-focused competitors charge for far less granular data. Fitbod runs $15.99/month (about $191.88/year if paid monthly, or $95.99/year on its annual plan) for whole-muscle-group recovery only, no subzone breakdown, and wearable-based recovery trackers like Whoop ($199-$359/year membership) or Fitbit Air ($99.99 hardware plus an optional $9.99/month Google Health Premium subscription) cost several times more for general biometric readiness with zero muscle-specific detail. In short, Valen Pro's yearly price is close to a single month of a wearable subscription, or less than two months of Fitbod, for a full year of muscle-subzone-level recovery tracking.

Is Valen actually free, or is that a trial?

Valen's free tier is permanent, not a trial. It includes the full recovery heatmap, unlimited workout logging, the muscle-subzone-mapped exercise library, and unlimited training history, with no account or payment required to start. This is different from apps like Fitbod, which only offers a 7-day trial before requiring a paid subscription to keep functioning at all.

Is a yearly subscription or the lifetime purchase better value?

The one-time lifetime purchase pays for itself compared to the yearly subscription in under two years, then costs nothing further. Lifetime pricing is increasingly rare among fitness apps, most of which (Fitbod, Whoop, Strong PRO) are subscription-only with no permanent buyout option.

Does Valen Pro price vary by country?

Yes. Like all Google Play subscriptions, Valen Pro's price is adjusted for each region's purchasing power and displayed in local currency at checkout, so the amount shown on the Play Store listing in your country may differ from the USD reference price.

Does the free plan limit routines, custom exercises or logging?

No. Free has no cap on logged sessions, saved routines or custom exercises, and there are no ads. Pro adds features, not room to log. For comparison, Hevy's free plan caps saved routines, custom exercises and chart history, and Strong's free plan limits saved routines. Both publish their current limits, which change over time.

Can I export my data without paying?

Yes. Export and import of a JSON file with your history, custom exercises and settings are available on the free plan. Valen exports JSON only, not CSV, and cannot import CSV files from other apps. Encrypted cloud backup, which needs a Google sign-in, is the Pro option.

What does Pro add that the free plan does not have?

Pro adds the adaptive weekly plan with training blocks, the corrective session, score breakdown, strain vs recovery, split over time, training intelligence, physique trajectory, Smart Rest, home screen widgets and encrypted cloud backup. Everything needed to log workouts and see recovery is free.

Is there an iPhone version or a smartwatch app?

iOS is coming soon. Valen has no Wear OS or Apple Watch app and no Health Connect connection. Recovery is calculated from the sets you log, so nothing needs to be connected.
