  • Great OTF and running companion

    I have had this for about 3 months and paid for the pro version about two weeks ago. My main reason for upgrading was that the orangeZones app kept breaking. At least the free one does. And I was not going to pay 70 dollars a month for that. The free one of this one starts automatically when you do any workout so you get the data too, and this is also true for the paid one. So a great way to get extra data in your OTF workouts. I wear an arm band too and it usually matches quite well. Love that it vibrates when switching zones. If anything I do wish one could customize the main screen to show percentage bigger like the orange zones one does. And it would be nice if it counted minutes in the zones if one wanted it. I am also training for a run and love this as it allows me to know my zone and thus pace myself properly, this was the main reason I upgraded and it was worth it.

  • Big HR finally

    Been looking for ages for apple watch app with bigger heart rate display like on my garmins. This app the only one i can find, and is nicely organised all round. Great for trail running where you need quick glances at heart rate only without taking eyes of trails.
  • Very good

    I have used this app for a few years now and for me l find it very useful in providing “additional support information” l like the clear visual graphics and the ability to adjust zone times. Would recommend. Thank you.
  • Great but has its flaws..

    Really love the concept of this app, and when it works it’s a fantastic aid to ensure I remain within certain zones during my training, and making sure I’m getting the Most out of my workouts.
    The problems I experience is normally iWatch related. It seems that it doesn’t recognise heart rate for a long time when opening the app on the watch, causing me to end it, close the app and put my watch on airplane mode to reset it. Or sometimes it freezes half way through workout and I have to pause it for a minute for the heart monitor to recalibrate. This happens more in the cold weather, so perhaps an update needed?

  • Has potential but not for my needs

    I downloaded this app as I was frustrated with the stock Activity app, and liked the more in depth zoning features.

    Before you download, take note that if you don’t currently ‘record’ your workouts, they won’t show in this app.

    I just wanted an app to show me more detail about my daily activity. I don’t use the Fitness tracking and just rely on the activity wheels, but after paying £5 I’ve found out none of the data that I have is actually picked up by the app, unless I have physically recorded it as a ‘workout’.

    My job is physically demanding and I wanted to know how well it meets my fitness goals but I can’t be recording the whole 8 hours as a ‘workout’ as that isn’t what it is.

  • Essential for reviewing my workouts.

    I use this app to monitor and log all the workouts that I do, I primarily use it with Apple Fitness+. I love the pro features with the long term stats, they really motivate me. This app has a great look and packs a lot of info about your workouts in a clean, simple and attractive way.
  • Perfect Companion to Apple Watch

    This is, without a doubt, one of the most-used apps on my phone. I love how easy it is to see what my heart rate was after each workout—just looking at it afterward motivates me for next time. I also like the cumulative data and seeing how many of each type of workout I did over the previous month or year. It syncs flawlessly with my Apple Watch, and I’ve never had an issue in more than a year of being an avid user. Excellent fitness app.

  • Easy app

    Love this app. Easy to use and works well with Apple Watch 6. I mostly use this app on my watch for cycling and find it easy to use, read and understand the data gathered. It’s a must have for cycling and running.
  • Super Useful

    I tried several other apps and this one is the best in my opinion for setting and monitoring zones while exercising, especially if your “max” heart rate is not “normal” for your age. I have a very unusual max heart rate for my age, and this allowed me to customize my max heart rate for accuracy. It also allows you to choose between a 4-zone system vs a 5 zone system. Pay once and use forever (no subscription!). It’s a very simple app. I does one thing, and it does it well.

  • Best fitness zone App

    This app has really helped me focus in on that missing element of my training and that is what zone I am in. Before I was constantly guessing or trying the do math in my head while also trying to breathe! This app fixed that. It’s important to note at least for me, this app is an addon app. Meaning I start my appple run and when I am finished this app pulls data from my watch and puts its into readable format. I have not played around with just running the app yet but it says it will show you your zone. I use it to look back and say was I running those mile repeats in zone 3 or 4 or was I dogging it. I paid the 5 bucks for the “pro” version and it’s worth every cent. If you are looking for an app to refine your training. Don’t hesitate get this one now !! Also after about 30 workouts I have zero problems with it missing data
