The Shotsy alternative for people who keep missing shot day
Updated 2026-06-11
Shotsy is a genuinely good tracker — if reminders keep you consistent, you may not need to switch. People move to ShotLock when logging isn't the problem, consistency is.
What switchers say was missing
- Reminders were easy to dismiss — there was no consequence for skipping shot day
- No way to see whether progress was on track versus published trial results
- Level charts without explanation: what does this curve mean for how I'll feel on Thursday?

- Estimated med levels with phase-by-phase explanations of your week
- Progress benchmarked against cited clinical trial results
