The TrueCoach alternative
for in-person trainers.
TrueCoach is built for remote program delivery, where clients follow workouts on their own phones. FullPT is built for the trainer on the gym floor: one app on your phone, paid for once, that works with no signal — and a companion app for the clients you want connected.

Questions
Is FullPT a good alternative to TrueCoach?
If you mostly coach in person, yes. FullPT's trainer app costs $30 once, works offline and keeps client data on your phone. Clients can use the optional companion app: 3 months of unlimited connected clients are included, then 1 stays free and monthly plans start at $3 and scale past 32 connected clients. If you coach many clients fully online, TrueCoach is the better fit.
How much does TrueCoach cost compared with FullPT?
TrueCoach: $26.34–$136.99/month, 14-day free trial. A trainer with 15 clients pays about $695.88 (Standard, $57.99/month) a year. FullPT: $30 once for the trainer app and offline use. Connecting clients remotely after the first 3 months is free for 1 client, with monthly plans from $3 for more.
Can I move my clients from TrueCoach to FullPT?
There's no automatic import. You add each client through FullPT's intake form, which covers goals, health notes, lifestyle and training experience, and takes a couple of minutes per client.
