2. Push Up Counter & Tracker (WSFU)

Best for: camera counting with several workout modes.

3. PushUp Counter - Auto Counting

Best for: a plain camera counter with session history.

It uses the camera to recognize push-up posture and counts only correct movements, saves results by day and session, and has adjustable difficulty.

4. Push Up Counter GOLDEN PushUps

Best for: AI camera counting plus a workout plan, on either platform.

The listing describes on-device pose estimation that counts push-ups and builds a plan to your level. It also has a Google Play version, which makes it one of the few camera counters for Android.

5. Push Up Counter - 100 Pushups (Foxyfitness)

Best for: a 100-push-up plan with automatic counting.

It detects push-ups with the proximity sensor and the camera and adds a training plan and voice coaching. The Android listing is the same program for 100 push-ups in six weeks.

6. Push-Ups (Thomas Schoffelen)

Best for: the simplest possible counter.

You tap the screen with your nose on each rep, or tap with the phone in your other hand. There is no camera or plan. Counting is only as accurate as your tapping.

7. Push Ups Trainer Challenge (Zen Labs)

Best for: following a structured plan from zero to 100.

An eight-week program with a voice coach, available on iPhone and as "0-100 Pushups Trainer" on Android. It guides your sessions rather than counting reps for you.

Frequently asked questions

Can an app count push-ups accurately?

It depends on the method. Camera counting tracks your movement directly, but results vary with phone placement and lighting. Proximity sensors depend on where you put the phone. Tap counting depends on you.

Is there a push-up counter for Android?

Yes. GOLDEN PushUps, Foxyfitness's Push Up Counter and Zen Labs' trainer all have Google Play listings.

Do these apps record video?

Jump Rope & Push Up Counter records and uploads no video. For the others, check each listing's privacy details.

How do I work up to 100 push-ups?

Use a program that adds reps week by week, such as the Zen Labs or Foxyfitness plans, and rest between sessions.

The verdict

For an iPhone camera counter that also covers jump rope, use Jump Rope & Push Up Counter. If you are on Android, GOLDEN PushUps is the camera-counting option, and Zen Labs' trainer is the pick if you want a plan to reach 100.
