FitStar Personal Trainer is finally available on Android. The very popular video-based fitness app has been a huge hit on iOS where it received the Editors’ Choice Award, App Store Best of 2013, and Best of 2014 product.

This app is perfect for those who need some guidance on the best ways to conduct their workouts. That usually means spending a ton of dough on a personal trainer at the gym, but FitStar Personal Trainer offers something similar for a lot less money.

You can also share your session summaries and earned badges on many social channels directly from the app.

Those of you familiar with Fitbit will appreciate that the FitStar Personal Trainer syncs with your Fitbit account as well. You can also connect with popular devices and weight management apps like MyFitnessPal and Strava.

All of this costs just $8 per month or $40 per year. That’s less than what it would cost for a single personal training session.
