Migrating from Old Website

GymNotes has moved from it's old home at https://gymnotes.uk to https://app.gymnotes.co.uk. Because your workout data is stored per website, you need to move this data across from the old website to the new. It is important to do this as soon as possible, because the old websites may become unavailable in the future.

If you have any issues, feel free to email me at [email protected] and I'll do my best to help.

FAQs

Why Have you Moved?

I develop and run GymNotes in my spare time. While I do what I can to keep costs down, the domain itself costs me to renew each year. Because of this, I've made the decision to reduce the number of domains for GymNotes down from 2 to 1.

Didn't I just do this?

You may have been told to migrate from gymnotes.uk to gymnotes.co.uk previously, before it was decided that GymNotes will live on app.gymnotes.co.uk. Apologies for the confusion, but please consider moving to app.gymnotes.co.uk instead, as gymnotes.co.uk will likely become the documentation for the GymNotes app, and so not be used for the app.

Will this be Moved again?

I have zero intentions to move away from the new domain, and so the answer to this is no. If this will ever change, I will be sure to give as much notice as possible, but personally think we've found the permanent home for GymNotes!

This is really inconvenient to me!

That's not a question, but I'll apologise for the inconvenience anyway! Hopefully you understand that this helps GymNotes be set up for the long term. Feel free to get in touch with any suggestions/improvements and I'll take it all on board! The easiest way to to this is probably to fill out the form on GymNotes.
