  • Hoping developer sees and answers!

    I really want this app to work. Tried out a class at OTF and loved the concept. However, didn’t love the idea of spending $129 on the heart monitor plus the workouts can easily be done in a home gym on my own... As soon as I left class I sat in my car and found this app. I downloaded onto my phone and went through the steps to download the Apple Watch app but it’s not showing up. After it tries to link, it tells me it can’t find it and to do it manually through the watch app but the app doesn’t show up there either. I am only able to use it on my phone after I’ve finished a workout. How do I fix it? I would like to use it while I’m working out so I can see how I switch between the zones. HELP !

  • Playlist

    Great workout ! Good job corporate. Did not miss hearing the negativity from the usual rap or hip hop that is played . Love a playlist made for a workout . A steady BPM . The negative lyrics cancel any endorphins I get . . Would not bring a friend to workout and listen to hip hop/ rap music . It too suggestive & offensive . Don’t care if it’s the number one genre right now . Im not desensitized to it. It’s not ok with me . The ear plugs I wear don’t always drown it out .

  • Not working on iPhone 13 with the Apple Watch

    I used this app occasionally when I had the iPhone 7 and series 3 Apple Watch and enjoyed it. I was excited to install it on my iPhone 13 and Apple Watch series 7. However, when I go to allow my health data to be shared with Orange zones the screen is blank. There’s nothing for me to click to allow the data to be shared. Since I can’t give this app access to my Apple health app I can’t use it on my iPhone rendering it useless. I was very disappointed.

  • Just like Orangetheory

    App works just like class, without the trainer obviously. You even get an email with the stats after too!
  • Pretty good but took away a bunch of free features

    I use this app as alternative heart rate zone track at orange theory so I don’t have to pay for their $150 HRM. It works pretty well for that but a bunch of features that used to be free they just took away like being able to see your history and seeing your HR over the course of the exercise etc. It’s one thing if you want to do that for new users but doing it for people that have been using the app for over a year is pretty sneaky if you ask me. Going to start looking for alternatives unless this gets turned around.

  • The best for OTF and Apple Watch lovers

    This app has been a game changer because I can use it on my Apple watch when I go to OrangeTheory and quickly see my heart rate zone and get a great summary after. The OTF band is glitchy and often keeps me in the grey zone. I was also having to look up at the screens all the time to see my zone. On this app my effort and zone color always match because I am bypassing the glitchy OTF band and when I change zones the watch vibrates so I don’t have to look at the screen all the time. Love it!!

  • Put features behind paywall

    I’ve been using orange zones for two years and the app mostly works well but seems to have a new glitch every update. I’m super disappointed they took away the heart rate graph and your workout history and put them behind a paywall with the latest update. Charging for basic features and calling it a premium plan, instead of actually adding features for the premium is a cheaper money grab that leaves a sour taste. I’ll be looking elsewhere to record my heart rate data now, I can’t recommend paying for what are basic features on an app with constant bugs.

  • Almost there!

    Nothing compares to this app for utility and outstanding UI… EXCEPT for no tracking of mileage totals. I want to be able to see weekly, monthly and annual mileage totals. A close competitor has the ability to compare past 3 weeks/months/years which is HUGELY helpful. If you add this feature ORANGE ZONE will be unbeatable!!!

  • Stalls Every Time

    Finally got around to writing a review. This app stalls all the time. It takes a good like five minutes to get a change on my watch, so basically my first five minutes don’t count correctly. Depending where I am when the watch finally adjusts I’ll have five minutes in grey or blue or green or orange just all at once.

    I’ve tried starting it before entering class but it still finds a way to stall as soon as I start to jog/warm-up.

  • Works great!

    Awesome way to do OTF even if a heart rate monitor isn’t in the budget yet, or if you don’t want yet another piece of stuff. And support is super responsive. I originally downloaded it to use until I could save up for a HR monitor, but I like this app better so I’ll keep using it!
