Unusable in current state
Without the ability to delete entries this is completely unusable for me as a weightlifter. When I start a session I use an app to log my sets, and start an Apple workout. If I don’t start an Apple workout the heart rate zones are missing a lot of data, and not using my logging app for my workouts is not going to happen. So now I’m getting all of my workouts to give duplicate entries with no way to erase them in the app. If this issue is fixed it would likely get a higher score but as it stands today all of the calculations for me are off.

Large heart rate numbers - see easily while running
Good app, easy to set up and use.
Screen isn’t crowded with data in tiny digits which aging eyes cannot see. A quick glance at my Apple Watch and bingo! I know my heart rate. 😊

Exactly what I’ve been looking for
After many years of using a variety of apps, Zones for Training includes all the data analysis that I’ve been wanting that the other apps have failed to deliver.

I don’t even use Zones for executing workouts, but the data integration and analysis is too notch when reviewing performance over the short or long term.

Perhaps the one feature I like the most is being able to set weekly goals for minutes or work and intensity of work. It even includes different options of how you as the user define your workout parameters, such as only record “work performed” when above a certain threshold or HR zone.

I also really like the trend data on how much time spent in a moderate vs. vigorous state.

I’m trying to train smarter and not just go high intensity each workout and Zones will really aid in being critical of myself.

Love it
I bought this app because the Apple Watch did not have zones which is shocking. I found this app, got the free version which is great but I wanted five zones and not four so I purchased the pro version (very affordable). Now when I am working out I select my activity on my watch and you can see your zones as you are working out. It’s awesome! I’ve shared the app with several people and will continue to give kudos!!

Used to be great but…
Now the app doesn’t measure my heart rate. It used to, and it was great, but now with the latest update works by measuring time and distance but without the heart rate monitoring, how do I know what Zone I’m in?!? Please fix this great app
FYI
Watch 3rd gen on iOS 8.7.1
iPhone 12 Pro Max on iOS 16.0
Heart rate monitor app works

Useful but not always accurate
Taking a measurement at the wrist means that you are less likely to get an accurate picture compared to a heart rate. If you have awkward bloodflow, like myself, you may not get a reading. From time to time this also lags. However, it provides a much better picture than the standard activity and workout apps in the Apple Watch. If you can splash out, get yourself a Bluetooth heart rate monitor. Not too expensive.

Absolutely love this app.
I can’t say it enough about this app. The amount of information you get about how long you stayed in a particular heart rate is so helpful. The feedback allows you to work as easy or as hard you want. I know what I need to do to set my pace the next time I exercise.
I love that it sync with my Apple Watch and phone. I thank the creators for this app.

Weekly goals
No other app gives weekly goals and amazing stats like this app. It makes me meet my weekly goals and not feel guilty if I miss a day. The stats it gives are unlike any other health app I have used. Once you pay the very small fee for full features the insights and stats are so helpful to compare workouts from the past and compare in any matter you like. Keep up the good work, this is the most useful health app I have used so far and I have tried almost of them.

Best one
Been using Zones for 3-4 years. Haven’t found a better app yet, there are a lot out there but Zones just hits the spot nicely
