Perfect for flexible schedules

I regretfully only used delta trainer for a few weeks but I really loved the concept and service. My trainer was Santana. He was easy to talk to, responsive, knowledgeable, kind and motivating. The app is easy to use after learning the interface. Covid restrictions make it difficult to make time for the gym and my work schedule is inconvenient so I didn’t end up using the app as much as I hoped. I’ll be back to it when there are fewer restrictions.

Changed my view on working out

So I’m someone who really likes the idea of working out and getting healthy, but when it comes to actually doing that, I fail. I would always tell myself that if I could just afford a personal trainer I would be able to get strong, but the prices were absurd and not something I could afford.

But since Delta Trainer I’ve worked out for 3 weeks consistently, my boyfriend and I have already noticed my legs and arms becoming stronger, and I have a ton of energy. Nates been awesome adjusting to what I can, and willing to push me a little harder to really help me burn calories. I say, if you’re hesitant, try the 2 week trial, you’ll love it!

Hands down, the best

I only have a rave review to write. This app is incredible. My personal trainer is active with me, works with my hectic life, and designs workouts for me. Weekly. That’s insane. Online, for the same services, it’s easily $200/mth. DeltaTrainer does all that plus a watch, motion tracking, rep counting, and tutorials.

You can beat this product. Join it.

Great Experience

I’m loving using this app! My trainer is great and the app works well. I think the app has a lot of promising features and can’t wait to see where it goes!

Solid App - There is a waitlist

NOTE: After setting up an account, I was notified there was a waiting list of 1-2 weeks. To get on the waiting list, you have to give a credit card.

Once I downloaded the app, I had issues where the app refused to verify with “Login Failed” or with the app crashing.

Now that I’m off the waitlist, the app works properly.

No in app cancellation

There’s absolutely no way to cancel the membership through the app or website, and because you give them your card details instead of subscribing through Apple (which in hindsight should of been a huge red flag) I’m now panicked how to get out of this thing.

The whole reason I don’t go to a gym is because I find the whole experience intimidating and I’m not interested in sales pitches, so the fact that this app has enforced video calls instead of them being optional and just using the chat function, and now I can’t cancel without reaching out to someone and I assume getting the hard sales routine makes me absolutely hate this app with a passion. I want out, but I can’t!!

Response from developer

Hello! We’re so sorry to hear about your rough experience. Your subscription was cancelled immediately when you emailed us with these concerns. Again, we would like to apologize for the stress which that experience caused!

This is no magic potion

We have to put in real work to get rea results. I am satisfied with Delta Trainer. The app works great, and my trainer is fantastic, friendly and I trust him.
If this were not to work out for me it would be because I didn’t put in the work.
So far I am putting as much work as I am willing ;)
Sometimes I am lazy.

Amazing Fitness Pal

This app has become the route to a turning point in my life that I never saw attainable beforehand; having the access to trainers in a non-gym environment allowed me to stretch my confidence levels that I wouldn’t see at a brick and mortar location. Additionally, the Apple Watch is a fantastic and incentivizing tool that I not only use during my workouts, but also at work; it’s a great way to remember that I’m paying towards health, not just the latest tech! I hope they continue to scale their programs to reach a larger audience, as I think this is truly the new personal trainer, and a comfortable way to either get back in track or keep on the one you may already have.

No metric

I tried to create an account and the app had me put in my measurements (for some reason rather than getting them from the health app) and it was all in feet/inches and pounds. I don’t know those measurements and most of the world doesn’t either. Odd in this day and age when the conversion between them is so easy for a computer to do...

Really like this, apart from a couple of things! (So, some requests, if I may)

This is an excellent app that has good workouts and lets you have control and guidance on the watch, which is so much better than the phone. The videos and guidance are really helpful!

The only issue I have is that everything is in lbs! I am in the UK and we use kg. Would it be at all possible for you to put it on your own roadmap to offer a conversion between lbs and kg, or just include both for the sets?

Also, I’m struggling to find how to amend my initial settings / goals. This might be me, and I’ll take another look, but it would be good to be able to amend an initial goal, as I assume this would change the suggested programme.

But, overall - thank you for a brilliant app!

Update: Thank you for your quick response! It’s exciting that this is all on your roadmap - looking forward to it. Updated from 4* to 5* in anticipation - am very much enjoying the app so far!

Response from developer

Thank you for your kind words! We are glad you’re excited about where the app is heading! Both of your requests are already on the road map - both kilos and a way to edit initial settings / regenerate your workouts will be live by the end of January! Thanks a lot for the suggestions and let us know if you have any other requests!
