Unable to use

Downloaded and redownloaded and restarted my phone, when I press ‘see all’ plans nothing works and when I press purchase, nothing happens. I intended to use this service but I assume the app is no longer in use

Thank you

Spotify update works great thank you, it makes rest time a breeze. I had wanted something like this for a few years and was thrilled to see someone take the leap. Hope the app takes off. Thanks for the work you put in

Hi! We just released a version with a new Spotify integration. Hope you get to try it out, and please share with us any feedback you may have. Best!

Great developer and app

I’ve been studying for exams, and I subscribe to a review podcast. I wanted to listen to it during my daily workouts, but there are those times when I need to focus on the workout and can’t pay attention to the podcast. Then I found this app. It’s exactly what I needed. The switching using the pause button on my headphones is great.

I had a question about the app and submitted a feedback request at the beginning of my workout. The developer had replied with the answer, complete with a video tutorial on how to fix my issue by the end of my workout 😎 Major props to the developer. Thanks for the app!

Thank you so much for the review! And good luck with your exams 👊

Wow way to go!

I downloaded it through someone who recommended it on reddit ages ago. Loved the idea but never used it. Just checked back again and wow it’s come really far. Dope app. Love the dedication to the project.

Hey, Michael here, one of the makers. So glad to hear you came back to check it out! We're just a small group of people who loves working out to podcasts, so we'll always be improving the product, for ourselves and you all. Please reach out if you have more feedback or want us to improve in any way. Cheers!

I love this app

Awesome for when you need the motivation music brings but your still interested in learning from podcasts.

Response from developer

Thank you for the review! Glad that Shift helps you stay motivated and learn at the same time.

Yep, this app rules!

Okay so I just used the app, like right now, sweat dripping and all. Let me just say, I can’t believe nobody thought of this amazing app before! I absolutely love it.

Never did I think to podcast while I ran because I’m not really interested in listening to an entire podcast while I’m running, but a podcast while I’m resting ... YES!

Now I may even start to run with a podcast because this app affords me the opportunity to automatically switch between the two!

Break from the music

This app provided great music to work out to and offers a nice break with podcasts to keep it interesting!

Thanks for the review! If you're not a fan of the game-mode feature, you can turn it off from the settings menu. Hope that helps!

How Apps Should Be

This app does what it says: lets you ‘shift’ from music to podcasts with the touch of a button. Straightforward, as it should be.

What stands out is the amazing developer! He not only reached out with a welcome email, but asked for feedback and provided regular, immediate correspondence.

Best of all, the suggestions I made were incorporated into the app within a few weeks!! I can see he really wants the app to be as functional and tailored to user needs as possible.

If you like both music and podcasts during your workout, get this app. If anything feels clumsy, tell the developer and he’ll fix it, just like that. Win-win!

Been using Shift for about 6 months and during that time it's got better and better. Easy to use and a great concept.
