Bad math

It's unable to make 50 out of 35 and 15. The app calculates the only way to go is to drop weight and use a 45. I end up having to double check the math every time and half the time I get a weight closer to what I wanted to use. Glad I paid for premium to use the terrible % calculator.

Excellent!

I love this app. I use it before every CrossFit workout to plan what plates I’m going to need for my lifts. My ability to do simple math goes down the harder the workout. This app takes away that problem - it’s visual, just load the plates it’s showing you. There’s a ton of great features in this app as well. An excellent app, well thought out and easy to use.

Calculates simply

A great free weight calculator. No adds and free. Gets the job done and free. Did I mention free of adds and $$$free$$$.

Great App!

I never write reviews. Ever. I’m not a math wiz....especially after powering through heavy squats. I don’t want to think much and just get my plates right. This app does it all. Pick a weight and it shows the plates you need. Pick your plates and it shows weight your at. Need to figure 91% of your 5 rep training max? It does it. Need to add collars? Yup. Need to convert lbs to kg on the fly? yup yup. I always keep it open when I lift.

Cannot customize bar weight—- app is pointless for women

I paid for the premium version expecting to be able to customize plates AND size of bar— it does not allow customization of bar (premium or not). It would be useful if it allowed you to customize the size of the bar.....technique bars (15#), women’s (35#), and men’s (45#)

Response from developer

Hi, sorry for not seeing your review earlier. Customization of bars is available in the premium version. From the Inventory screen, in the top right is a 'Bars' option that will allow you to edit and create new bars. If you need any help, let us know at info@happyliftingco.com. Thanks!

Does exactly what I need it to and does it well

Calculator with inventory, reverse (“what’s on the bar?”), etc. A future tweak might be if the inventory could apply to the reverse calculator but it’s not super necessary. Thanks y’all!

I followed the instructions of the last post who had the same issue I’m having now and it worked on my iPad being my other iOS device but it my iPhone which I take to the gym with me it will not upgrade or restore purchase even after uninstalling and reinstalling on my phone. Any way to get any assistance so I do have make another purchase on my phone ?

Hi Mr_Legendavey. Can you please send us an email about your issue at info@happyliftingco.com? Thanks.

Zero stars, completely useless

What is the point of having a free version?
It doesn’t do anything. All the features are locked until you buy the premium version. Completely useless!

Hi Mrfader. The core function of the app - to calculate which plates to put on a standard barbell - is free. You can also choose lb/kg, and which plates and quantity you have available in the free version. Adding custom bars, plates and collars as well as additional calculators are available in premium for those users who feel they would be of value to them. If you have any questions about the app, please send us an email at info@happyliftingco.com. Thanks!

OK

At first, I could find no option to switch to kilos. This option should surely be under settings. Most people working in KGs won’t stick around long enough to find it. Once this is fixed, it will be a pretty useful app.

Hi Mark. I know you left your original review quite a while ago (sorry that we missed it!). We'll likely change a couple things about the interface in a future update. Thanks for the feedback.
