The Android app, published by Gymble, Inc., is categorised under Health & Fitness, was updated in June 2025 and recorded more than 10 downloads.

The company was launched in 2020 by three athletes connected to Charlotte, North Carolina: Devon Oakley (CEO), Akim Mitchell (chief operating officer) and Trey Phills (chief marketing officer). Mitchell and Oakley played collegiate basketball together at Hampton University; Phills, a Yale graduate, played professionally with the Greensboro Swarm. Gymble's developer address is listed in Charlotte, NC, and the company also opened a location in Newark, New Jersey.

Founding story

The concept originated with Trey Phills, whose professional basketball season with the Greensboro Swarm was cut short by the coronavirus pandemic, giving him time to develop the idea of a sports technology company connecting clients to athletic experiences while giving venues an easy booking platform. He teamed with longtime friend Akim Mitchell and Mitchell's Hampton University basketball teammate Devon Oakley to launch Gymble in 2020, with Oakley as CEO and financial strategist, Phills as chief marketing officer and Mitchell as chief operating officer.
