Super glitchy, unreliable.

Unfortunately, it’s disappointing to say that this app has not improved over the year at all – if anything, it has gotten worse. It’s incredibly glitchy, especially when trying to use it during a workout at the gym. The app constantly stops, starts, glitches, and then restarts the workout from the beginning, leaving you standing around feeling frustrated and looking like an idiot constantly playing with your phone because the app just won’t work properly.

It frequently freezes and asks you to log in again, only to claim that your membership and email are non-existent. Dealing with these issues mid-workout, while repeatedly trying to restore the app or get back into to finish your workout is beyond frustrating. Leaving the app unreliable.

For an app that’s supposed to enhance your gym experience, it’s doing the exact opposite.

Glitches

App constantly glitches. Have had an issue since August. Doesn’t work properly.Programs good, but can’t even use app since it was revamped and each new update does nothing to fix problems.
It’s a complete waste of my time now since August. Can’t keep track of weights and reps now on each set, doesn’t advance to next exercise or set. Rest time doesn’t work. It’s been extremely frustrating.

Love the app but lately I have been having issues.

Hi!

Just wondering if this is happening to others, I stared a guide last week and ended to start the Strong and SXY for added.
1- I have noticed that is not marking off the workout as completed which is annoying because I like to see which ones I have completed.

2- Quite often when doing a workout halfway it will reset back to the warm up, and I have to click like a lot to get back to where I was.

I have deleted the app, signed out and such and still having the same issue.

Thanks for you help Lisa & Romane’s STRNG Community!

App is freezing

I love this app and have had it for a while now, but the last few times I have tried to enter all my reps and sets, it freezes after the first set. I have taken the app out and redownloaded it, but it still freezes.

Broken App, messes with other apps. Workouts too long

What can I say, the app is riddled with bugs I can’t use any other music apps while using this app.
It constantly crashes and doesn’t save my workouts even when I wait 1 hour after the workout for it to upload.
Workouts are far too long and it doesn’t matter how much feedback you submit the owners / developers literally do not listen unless you’re a fit-fluencer.
I’ve been wanting my money back and they won’t refund me so I can go buy a better workout app.
DO NOT PURCHASE ALL THE 5 STAR REVIEWS ARE PAID AND FAKE!!!!

Hey Ashleigh, thanks for your review. We’re really sorry to hear that you’ve had this experience. We honestly do strive to take your feedback onboard to ensure you’re having the best experience you can. If you don’t have time to finish a workout you are always able to skip through the exercises you don’t have time for within your ‘Personalized Plan’ or guide. We also do have different lengths of workouts on the app, including guides dedicated to if you’re short on time, or shorter video classes of 30 minutes or less. These can be found in our ‘MOVE’ tab. We’re really sorry to hear you were experiencing crashes. If you can provide us with a rough timestamp of the crash, or more information as to when it crashed, that will help us identify why this happened to you. We’d love to discuss things further if you can please email us again at hello@strngofficial.com and we’ll be very happy to troubleshoot to improve your experience. Please note: we can assure you that our reviews are completely authentic to our user’s experiences and we would never influence them. Thank you - Team STRNG

Horrible update

I used to love this app and would purchase for three months at a time. I haven’t done so in a couple of months because my lifestyle changed but when I came to renew a subscription, I was no longer entitled to the free trial which should’ve been available after major updates like this. It’s very hard to plan my workouts based on my schedule and what exercises I want to do, and cannot see my progress from past workouts. Really disappointed that I paid for a whole month, I will NOT be renewing!

Must have app

I absolutely love this app. I rave about it to everyone. It saves me so much time not having to plan my work outs. The options to switch my workouts around depending on how much time I have or to just switch a single exercise out in my routine because I’m not feeling it or if injury occurs. There are so many options, I first started with homework workouts and have now progressed to the gym. Top rated app and very good value. Love love love it

Great start

Love the variety of training styles and how they can cater to a lot of different goals. However, I feel like they need to spend more time on the home workout front.

All of their challenges look really incredible for Jim but their homeworkout is just a medley of all the video workouts and trainers put together I feel like if I don’t go to the gym, I’m only going to get a 50% benefit from this app. Even all of the guides there is only one trainers workout routine built for home workouts.

Even if you guys can just add Home variation to current workout plans that would be amazing.

Hey there - thanks for your kind review and feedback. We'll definitely be looking to add more 'At Home' content to our challenges and app in the future! Home 'Personalized Plan' extensions are actually coming very soon which will be bringing almost 100 new home workouts to the STRNG app. Please keep an eye out for announcements! In the meantime, you can select 'Home' as your 'Personalized Plan' location and that will give you a tailored 'Home' plan. Also look at our follow along Video Classes which be done at home. If you go to the workouts section you can also toggle between 'Gym' and 'At Home' to add more home exercises into your routine. Team STRNG

Not worth it

This app has way too many glitches and isn’t user friendly.

I was on a 4 month subscription which I believed would end and not automatically renew. I checked the settings function close to the end of my 4 months to ensure I was not signed up for auto renewal. It stated that I did not under any subscription plans. Wrong. It did auto renew and when I contacted support to explain this and ask for a refund, they weren’t helpful.

Don’t waste your time or money on this app. They need to spend time fixing the glitches and better functionality.

Hey there - thanks for your review. We're sorry you have experienced this and would like to help troubleshoot for any issues you're having and help you further. Please note - our subscription services are on a renewal basis which is explained upon sign up and in our T&C's - unless you opt out. We would never charge a subscription fee if the subscription was cancelled. If you can get in touch with us again we will be able to look into this further for you. Thanks so much - Team STRNG

App super glitchy

Great concept but app is super glitchy and often results in lost data. Won’t let you skip exercises - will glitch and take you back to it. When swapping exercises you can’t just choose your own, you can only pick from what’s in against that exercise as a swap. Sometimes just closes and loses all data from that session … so good concept but can be frustrating…
