It’s alright
This app isn’t nearly worth the money she’s asking when every fitness class or recipe you could ever dream of exists online literally for free. The affirmations are not nuanced and fake woke. The whole premise is how do I make quick money while I’m insta famous. Hehe.raemak90

Hey Raemak90, based on your message I agree that it sounds like we are not a good match. Good luck with your fitness journey! LucyLove it
I’ve been on an anti-diet journey for a couple of years now, and was ready to step up my movement practice but was avoiding anything fat-shaming or diet-y. This app is awesome and gives me the direction I need, without putting any focus on my weight or measurements.
My ONE complaint is that the weight tracking for reps always defaults back to kgs so I have to change it to lbs for every single round- it would be awesome to just choose one and stick with it. Otherwise, obsessed! I’ve finished my first week of workouts and I already feel SO MUCH BETTER, stronger, less body pain etc. It’s great!Show lessJanelleZ604

janelleZ604 ! thank you so much ! this is the most incredible review, thank you so much. I've passed your feedback about the weight tracking kgs / lbs issue. thank you again, lucy xMaking me love movement again
Thank you so so much for creating the Nobs app, it’s changed my life ❤️ I’ve struggled with eating disorders forever and then got diagnosed with PCOS after gaining a lot of weight uncontrollably, and so I really struggled with moving my body joyfully and not as a shame or control thing. But Nobs has been so genuinely enjoyable, and taught me how to move again for joy and not at all out of shame. Thank you for creating such an amazing community and app Lucy, you’re changing lives.Show lessElizajbuchanan

thank you so much elizajbuchanan, I'm SO happy that you love the nobs app - this is always our aim. If you ever have feedback on how we can improve please do let us know at @nobsapp :) xApp Doesn’t Work
I was so excited for this app when it came out. I downloaded it the day it launched and immediately fell in love. However, I only got to use it for maybe 2 weeks before it started crashing mid workout. I would restart the app, go back in to where I left off, and it would immediately crash again. This happens every single time I go into the app. I can’t even make it through the warm up at this point. It’s so disappointing. At this point I’m paying for the app to sit on my Home Screen. Tech support has been really responsive and I know they are doing their best. I appreciate what they have done so far. I just wish this could be resolved. Even after the most recent update I am still experiencing these crashes. I would cancel my subscription but I joined when the app launched and was able to get a discount. I wouldn’t be able to afford this app without that discount so I keep the subscription hoping that the issue will be resolved. Lucy, please help :(Show lessImNYCbound

Hey ImNYCbound - could you please dm us at @nobsapp and we'll give you a hand getting this sorted? I'm sorry you've had trouble and we'd love to get you back on the app xI love Lucy but so disappointed in this app
I am so disappointed in this app. I absolutely love Lucy and have been following her and doing her home guides (supported on Aflete) for well over a year. I loved her original home guide and senior home guides so much I did them both through twice. So I was so looking forward to downloading the app and doing even more fantastic workouts, but I’m disappointed. Firstly for the app itself: it’s confusing and unintuitive with several issues and little annoyances (part of the screen cut off during rest periods, having to re-select your number of reps every single time if you choose something other than what’s recommended, etc.). It’s also basically impossible to see what your workout is going to look like before you do it. The exercises themselves are listed, but you can’t see the number of reps, or a video or description until you’re literally about to do the workout, which is a huge pain. You also can’t go back and edit what you’ve done (in case you accidentally tracked kgs instead of lbs, for example (which is also an annoying part of the app, where it’s difficult to tell which is actually selected)). But I’m also so disappointed in the workouts themselves. I’m only three workouts in on the first senior home guide, 4x a week, and the workouts are…..ridiculously easy. Why would I need 90 seconds of rest after doing 5 rows (no matter how high the weight is)? Furthermore, as far as I can tell every workout for this entire guide is full body, which is very different from the targeted workouts (upper/lower body) of the older senior home guide, which I greatly preferred. I hope they get more difficult as I go, but as someone who went from a different senior gym guide to this, the workouts are absurdly easy for a guide labeled for “seniors”, or more experienced gym-goers. I’m going to keep at it, firstly in the hopes that it gets better and secondly because I loved the previous guides so much that I went ahead and bought a yearly subscription right off the bat but…we’ll see.Show lessaks1596

Hello ! Firstly, thank you so much for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with some elements of the app. At the end of august, we released an update that should fix some of these elements for you including visual workout preview and skipping rest breaks. In terms of your workout, feel free to drop us a message on instagram @nobsapp - I'm super happy to break down and explain the logistics of your rest timings and progressive overload in your current plan. Lucy xLove love LOVE this app!
Lucy has built an amazing platform! Workouts are fab, I’ve been going to the gym for years but never dare enter the free weights section. I’m doing the junior gym plan and it’s slowly but surely getting me there, one or two exercises at a time. The video demos and written instructions are spot on! The recipes I’ve tried so far are delicious!! Yes there are a few teething issues but nothing that makes the app less enjoyable to use and all stuff Lucy is happy to take feedback on and improve! I would much rather have the app with teeny bugs and receive updates with fixes than have had to wait longer for it! XxxShow lessSlmansel

Thank you for taking the time to review the nobs app, we really appreciate your feedback. We're SO happy that you love the nobs app - this is always our aim. If you ever have feedback on how we can improve please do let us know at @nobsapp :) xLove the app, wish it would work
I’ve been a fan of Nobs for awhile and have purchased previous workout guides from Bobs before the app launched. I really lived the workout plan for the first 12 weeks, as well as the affirmations and recipes. There were a few kinks during those first 12 weeks that were annoying, but I looked past them because I love the workouts so much. Now, after trying to start a second plan after finishing my first, the app completely crashed and is not functional. Tech support can’t tell me if or when it will be fixed and sent me instructions on how to cancel my subscription. So disappointing!! There’s nothing else like this out there, and I wish I could still be a nob.Show lessMariasilentg

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback of the app ! since you wrote this review, the bug has been fixed so shouldn't be a problem any more. I hope you'll come back and join us soon xReally loved it but
I absolutely love the intention, set up, and motivation behind this app. It got me back into working out! But there are too many issues with the app. It would take 5+ to work through the bugs to get started and sometimes I’d just have to give up. If they fix the bugs, I will definitely sign back up. Lucy, please fix so I can be a NOB again!!Show lessKatlynSwanson

Thank you so much for your feedback ! you can totally come back to nobs app - our most recent update fixed some of the bugs you mentioned. I hope to see you on soon, lucy x p.s. you'll always be a nob regardlessGreat concept, app really needs work
I love following nobs and really enjoy these workouts, however there’s definitely some bugs that need fixing in the app that make it hard to enjoy using it. It can regularly crash during workouts, the display can be glitchy for example the timer will disappear, small things like my end of workout log always asks if I’m feeling “good, sweaty or 15mins” (!?). At it’s core it’s great, but I can’t see me wanting to continue my subscription beyond my first program without resolving the bugsShow lessJesseAnneMichael

Hello hi JesseAnneMichael. Thank you so much for sharing this with me ! I'd love for the team to have a look into these issues, if you haven't contacted them already. I completely understand how frustrating this must be but please do drop us a line to Customer Service via our website and we'll sort you out. Lucy xLove!
It’s only been 3 weeks but I feel like I finally found a way to move my body that I love! There’s so pressure to do anything and the training sessions are so well thought out. I’m still getting over some gyn intimidation, but with this app in my pocket I feel confident and I’m looking forward to increasing my strength!Show lessLbugg09
