No complaints other than very nit-picky stuff but ...
Can/will there please be an iPad or web app later on? Being able to see all of the data on iPhone is awesome but being able to see even more data on a bigger screen like an iPad or computer would be so much more useful and easier to use/navigate.

Was great until the latest iOS update
Since the latest iOS update that crashes on me intermittently. The only way I can get it to work is to wait about an hour or two later and then try to re-launch it. What happens it will suddenly shut down and when I try to re-launch the app it’ll briefly flash an error message -So quickly that I can’t screenshot it or even get to read it. I’ve really enjoyed this app, but for the moment it’s unusable for me. Look forward to when it gets repaired.

Really good, big shortfall
I really enjoy the insights on the free version and paid. Really useful, but I’ve recorded all workouts on the Apple fitness instead and it’s pulled them over. For the first time I recorded it on the app itself for the ability to stay within a training zone… but I’ve not been able to get it to appear over on other apps I have for other purposes.

Really needs to have better health integration

Works Great
App works great. I have not experienced the issues others have mentioned in their reviews. I use it with an Apple Watch 6 for running and outdoor bicycling. I find training with targeted workout zones is far healthier and it eliminates the need to memorize what my heart rate should be at for weight loss or cardio. All the other features are gravy on top of an already excellent app. Well done.

Solid and Effective
I used the free version for 4 months every single day. I was so pleased with how it works and integrates with Apple Watch I just upgraded to the pro version. There is no better recommend than that. 😀

Love it - except for the pause!
Love Zones over the Apple fitness app but there is no way to stop a workout being paused by pressing the side button which is frustrating as Apple app doesn’t have these issues. I tend to not notice until after the workout then while I still get the heart rate data the calorie burn and workout time is incorrect.
Love the vibrating when changing HR zones

LOVE IT but please add a comment section!!
I love this app but wish they had a comment section so you could leave notes on the type of workout / how you were feeling etc. I’ve tried to send feedback but it doesn’t seem like the button works :(

PLEASE PLEASE UPDATE IT WITH A COMMENT SECTION!!!! 😊

Very good, wish it did one more thing...
I’ve tried several of these heart rate zones apps, so far this is my favorite, very clear and uncluttered interface.

My wishlist item is for it to work with Apple Watch and an external heart rate monitor. The workaround is to do your workouts in the Fitness app, then look at the data in Zones once the workout is over. That works, but it would be nice to be able to have Zones running on Apple Watch with an external monitor.

Great addition to AW
I switched from a Garmin 645 to an AW6, which was great except I really missed the post-run analytics side of the Garmin Connect app. Pace, splits, HR Zones and heat maps. This app gives me back 99% of the features I miss, and a load of extra features I didn’t even realise I wanted. I’m always stingy when it comes to apps - £6 sometimes feels like something I may never recover from financially! However this is well worth the price.

Edit: Only flaw I’ve found is the activities that post to Apple Health when using the watch app won’t post to Strava. Makes the watch app useless to me as I’m a Strava addict. Phone app is fantastic though

Great app for training
I have used this app throughout my training and it was great. I did pay for the upgrade but it was well worth it. I have switched to a Garmin instead of an Apple Watch.
My husband recently started using the app and the problem he runs into being colorblind is seeing the differences in color between the zones. He has to slow him self to see what % he’s in because all the colors look the same.
