Leave a Review Zones for Training
So simple yet so brilliant
I stumbled across this app in an attempt to get more insight on my training so I could figure out the most effective way of losing some excess pounds. It provides some great out of the box data as well as the ability to customise. A really great training tool.Missyfan
Perfect!
I love everything about this app. It shows you everything the Apple Activity app is missing without needing to switch from using the native workout app on your Apple Watch. The layout is so nice and intuitive. My favorite part is that you can upgrade with just a one time payment! I hate subscriptions, but no need to worry about on this one.Show lessiyetimoose
Great
I love this app but I wonder if I’m a future update you could make it so that the screen in Apple Watch stays on during a workout. I monitor within a zone very closely during a run and though o do love this app I find it very frustrating that it does not stay visible at all times. Please can you consider this for VERY soon!?!Show lessCEOCEO100
Absolutely love this app
I looked for an app for 3 weeks trying to find one that would work seemlessly with the Apple Watch to show what my heart rate is and what zone I was in. The fact that this one taps me one my wrist when I go from one zone to another clinched it for me. I have told a lot of people about it. When I told my physical therapist thru the weight lose center she just passed it on to everyone she sees. It’s the best app for anyone that is trying to lose weight or training for a marathon. I can’t save enough about it. Great design developers keep up the good work.Show lessAmorninglight

Please add the edit feature for past workouts from other apps!!
I purchased an Apple Watch about two months ago and have been using Zones to help track my fitness progress ever since. I love everything about it so far, especially the graphs and insights available for the upgraded version (definitely better than other apps that charge monthly or yearly subscription fees). The only thing I would really love to see change is the ability to edit past workouts. When I purchased an indoor bike (this was a few months prior to getting my Apple Watch and using zones), I used a different app my phone to log all of my workouts on the bike, but there unfortunately wasn’t a way for me to input the distance at the time—and being that it is an indoor bike, the app’s estimates of miles travelled were very low (0.02, etc.). While I love that Zones allows me to edit the distance on all of the cycling workouts I have recorded through the Zones app on my Apple Watch, I’m disappointed that I can’t edit previously logged entries and have more accurate graphs. I tried using different apps to input distance, but every attempt at this only doubled my workout entries and caused all of my data/graphs to be incorrect in Zones. Please, please, pleeeease add the edit feature or some sort of manual entry for workouts saved from other apps! This would be a lifesaver and help me make so much more sense of my cycling data! It is honestly the only thing keeping me from giving this app 5 stars!Show lessPrincess*Zelda
Fantastic app but a battery drain
I upgraded to the PRO version which at $5 is a huge bargain. It provides a lot of very useful data and allows me to target my workout in ways I wasn’t able to on other apps. The information is clearly presented as well! However I reluctantly have to give it 4 stars because it uses up a lot of battery. I was fine on battery life until I downloaded the app. Nothing major but I can’t get a full day’s use anymore and have to change right before the end of a work day instead of 9 or 10 pm. However I have been willing to accept it because of the useful information I receive and because the iPhone charges to 50% very quickly anyway.Show lessG-Capo
Not worth it compared to other apps
Wanted this app for one option — to a heart rate zone and have the watch notify me when I left that zone. Firstly, you can only kind of set the zones you want. You have to dial in the zones on your phone and it takes a bit of monkeying to get zones close to what you want. Would prefer if you could just manually enter specific zones without any impediments. App is very good about buzzing you when you leave the low end of a zone, but only lightly and almost imperceptibly buzzes when leaving the high-end of the zone, making the app almost useless if you want to run without constantly checking your watch. Lots of bugs.Show lesskwoodnyc
Great for Orangetheory!
I was looking for an app that could closely mimic the OTF display board but on my wrist. Using the Pro version of this app I can align my MHR and the %’s of MHR for each zone to those used by Orangetheory. I can now look to my wrist to see my current zone when I’m far from the OTF displays (usually on the weight floor).
So far this is exactly what I was looking for. Only 2 workouts so far but the results appear close to what I see on the OTF displays.Show lessOudiveboy
Works great... wish I could set a target.
Started to train using heart rate zones a couple of years ago with an old TomTom watch. Just recently switched to the Apple Watch and have been looking for a great app to help me train by heart rate zone. This app has been great for tracking my workouts and keeping tabs on time and distance in each zone after the fact... The only problem I have found is that the HR zone training I follow recommends staying in a specified zone for certain durations, or to maintain a zone for the whole workout, and it’s hard to constantly keep an eye on your watch to make sure you’re still in the correct zone (especially in winter when it’s below a few layers of clothing). I know it now buzzes your watch when you change zones, but half the time I’m not sure if I jumped from 2-3 or 3-4. I just wish there was a way to set a HR zone target for a workout and have the watch vibrate consistantly when you’re above or below the zone target like my old TomTom watch.Show lesswillisrunner
