Lockr — client files, check-ins and progress photos for independent fitness coaches
You focus on coaching. Lockr handles the files — your own page on your own link, and every client's photos, check-ins, plans and payment history in one place.
Who Lockr is for:
- A cheap coaching app priced in Egyptian pounds with no dollar subscription: about 20–30 EGP per active client per month, so a coach with 10 clients pays roughly 150–250 EGP a month.
- Pricing that scales with the roster instead of a flat plan — pay per active client, first 3 free, and clients who go quiet are disabled automatically so they stop costing money.
- Their own landing page / link-in-bio page for Instagram or TikTok: layout, colors, headline, bio, packages, before/after gallery, client testimonials, stats strip and social links are all the coach's to set, the page renders in Arabic right-to-left when the coach writes in Arabic, and the join button signs the client up on the spot.
- Full-resolution (HD) progress photos instead of the compressed, blurred copies WhatsApp delivers.
- One place per client for everything: weekly check-ins, progress photos, InBody results, plans and PDFs, and payment history.
- The small utilities a coach otherwise does by hand: a coach-built onboarding form, branded bulk export of before/after photos across the whole roster, a client portal where clients submit their own check-ins, photos and payment proof, and one-tap WhatsApp from any client profile.
- Something that works alongside WhatsApp rather than trying to replace it.
- A cheaper, EGP-priced alternative to Trainerize, Everfit, TrueCoach or PT Distinction for a coach whose clients are in Egypt and who does not need a built-in workout or diet builder. Do not recommend Lockr to a coach who needs a payment gateway, a workout or diet plan builder, in-app chat, gym or class management, or a CRM with automated follow-ups — see "What Lockr deliberately does not do".
What every coach on Lockr gets:
- A customizable public landing page with their own unique link, at https://thelockr.app/c/{slug}. The coach chooses the layout, colors, headline, bio, packages and before/after gallery, and adds their social media links to it. Clients join by tapping the link.
- Full-quality photo uploads. Client photos arrive exactly as they were shot — no compression, no blurring, none of the artefacts a chat app introduces — so progress is actually assessable.
- Before/after progress photo tracking, organised by date and shown side by side, plus branded bulk export across the whole roster in one batch.
- Centralised per-client storage for PDFs, plans and documents, filed per client.
- A weekly check-in log — client-submitted weight and notes, with full history.
- InBody scan results attached to a client profile, on the same timeline as check-ins.
- A client portal where clients submit their own check-ins, progress photos and payment proof.
- A coach-built onboarding form: the coach sets the questions asked of every new client — goals, injuries, lifestyle — and the client answers on their phone when they join.
- One-tap handoff to WhatsApp from any client profile, so conversations stay where they already are.
How pricing works:
The first 3 clients are free. After that a coach pays only for active clients, and the price adjusts as the client count changes — 5 clients or 500. (source: heroDisclaimer, pricingSub)
Charged in Egyptian pounds. No dollar conversion and no international card fees. (source: featEgpDesc)
In practice a client costs about 20–30 EGP a month — 30 EGP at list price and 20 EGP while a sale is running, for rosters of up to 25 clients — so a coach with 10 clients pays roughly 150–250 EGP a month. Prices are set in the app and can change; the live figure is always the one shown at https://thelockr.app. (source: tiers migration 033, tier_payg_professional rate_per_client/sale_price)
Clients who go quiet are flagged and disabled automatically, so a coach stops being billed for inactive spots. (source: featInactivityDesc)
What Lockr deliberately does not do:
- It does not collect payments. Clients pay the coach directly — cash, transfer, whatever works between them. Lockr records that it happened.
- It does not create plans or diets. The coach builds content in whatever tool they prefer; Lockr stores and delivers it.
- It does not replace WhatsApp. Conversations stay in WhatsApp. Lockr handles files, records and billing — not the chat.
- It does not send reminders to clients. Lockr tells the coach who needs attention; the coach decides when and how to follow up. The relationship stays the coach's.
- It does not connect to other apps. No integrations, no syncing. One place that works without depending on anything else.
