Wait a bit
Love Lucy and nobs but I’d wait to purchase this until some of the issues are sorted out. For $10+ a month, I’d really want this to run a lot more smoothly. Customer support is quick to respond, but there were just so many bugs.Mar63847&

Thank you for your feedback, since May, we've released a fix that should solve the bugs you mentioned. I hope you'll come back to nobsapp soon, lucy xToo Problematic
There appears to be a lot of bugs within the app. It crashes constantly and does not hold the info. I am also a bigger girl and some of the alternative at home exercises just hurt my back. Things like the chair example where whenever I try because I’m heavier then the chair it moves and makes me bend my back.
For such an wannabe inclusive brand there is also a lack of diversity. I would very much appreciate someone in a bigger body then Lucy do the exercises to allow for reasonable adjustments. The whole preface of nobs is to be inclusive but it doesn’t appear that way at all.
I am also rather annoyed that if you have bought all of Lucy’s previous work out guides you can’t just transfer your purchase. You basically have to buy them again.Show lessScatteroflight2011
Wanted to love it but needs work
Am a big nob and have never used a programme before as I am confident at the gym, but thought if I trust anyone it is Lucy. The actual workouts are amazing and everything in the app is fab.
However, it doesn’t work without WiFi, which my gym is a black hole for, so the app just crashes repeatedly. It also seems like I can’t get past the first main exercise after the warmup exercises in each workout, not sure why that is happening.
If the devs work on downloadable workouts or ability to use offline, I’d subscribe again.Show lessbhayter

Thank you so much for this Bhayer (also love that ur a big nob !!). I love that you loved the workouts but I do always want to hear what is not suiting you so we can make improvements and ensure the app is as best it can be for you. Thank you for sharing this and I'm so sorry you had some issues - offline mode is already on our list of feature improvements so I hope to see you with us again soon. Lucy xGreat idea - execution not so good!
The app is a really great idea, the workouts are easy to follow and fit in and there are some nice touches on the app. The daily pep talks are just an example of how refreshing this app is!
However there are some technical issues. The app often crashes. And when you return to the workout, you have to skip through all what you have done to get to where you were. This is seriously frustrating, although it says how completed it is (65% for example) when looking at the timetable of workouts.
It’s just awkward to navigate how you view workouts also in comparison to another competitive app (athlete). You have to go back pages and sometimes this will also make you loose your place similar to the previous issue.
I’ve had to give up on workouts because it would crash so much. Wish it worked a lot smoother! Because I think Lucy has great ideas, and this app is seriously needed in the fitness market.Show lessElsW96

I love the concept of this and it’s so almost there but there are some persisting bugs that make it very difficult for me to use the app. I’ve tried hard to just ignore them as they don’t massively affect my use of the app but I get frustrated and repeatedly reset and redownload the app to see if they’ll reset. I’ve filed a couple reports and the team have always been responsive but have yet to fix the issues. I use the twice weekly, senior gyms program and the workout on the home page jumps about in numbers. Often shows week 2, workout -4 for example. When I finally decided to ignore it and do the workout form the home screen it was actually a workout from week 4. There was recent update that made the warm up a circuit. But I reset my programme again to see if it’d fix the week bug I described before and the warmups have gone back to one after the other and I can’t seem to make it go back. Lost count of the number of times I’ve deleted the app. I like the workouts and will continue to use as I’ve paid and support Lucy but I essentially can’t use it to track the programme so will jump in and out. Also can only see 7 weeks of workouts? I can’t really comment on the other parts of the app as I don’t use the recipes and only briefly look at the affirmations but from what I have seen they look good and seem to be working.Show lessGracieMaeHay

Hi ibrown296 ! I'm so sorry that you're having trouble signing up for nobsapp! If you drop us a dm on ig @nobsapp, we'll see what we can do to help ! xAbsolutely LOVE
As someone who is plus sized, working out has been very intimidating but this app is amazing and SUPER beginner friendly. For the first time I actually look forward to working out rather than running away.
I love the recipes - so far I’ve tried the avocado pasta and the mushroom risotto and they are to die for!
The daily affirmations are super motivating as well!
The app is a little glitchy at times but I’m hoping it will improve as time goes on! Apart from that it is absolutely wonderful!Show lessNenenenenwnne

!!! Tysm for your incredible review :'-). It's so lovely to hear that you're enjoying working out and that the daily affirmations are motivating ! We agree the avocado pasta does bang pretty hard. Thank you again, love always, lucy xGreat concept, not so great execution
I had high hopes for this app, especially since it’s a costly monthly subscription. It has so many great things! The daily affirmations is a cute feature, the workouts are dynamic, your fitness plan has a fair amount of customizations, the one recipe I tried was pretty good. The content itself is great!
The app itself though, has some issues. As mentioned previously in other reviews it’s hard to move between the different workouts, although I heard this was going to change soon.
It’s not very intuitive, changing between types of workouts isn’t easily accessible. I had a problem where a workout was showing in my plan that was clearly for a different plan, and I couldn’t remove it without having to go through the entire thing and skipping each workout and rest individually. The home display also showed incorrect week and workout number. The customer support team did their best, but could find nothing on their end and suggested it was my phone (which is an XR btw so not super old). I did everything recommended, which was restart and reinstall which didn’t quite fix the problem and my progress was cleared. They said it’s stored on a cloud but I followed the FAQ for the cloud storage and still nothing restored.
I could just have bad luck, or it really is my phone. Either way with the high premium this app requires on a monthly basis, it’s hard for me to justify the cost.Show lessOlivia478997

thank you so much for your review and for your feedback. I'm glad you found the affirmations useful and the workouts dynamic. I'm sorry to hear the trouble you have experienced, since you wrote this review we've released an update which should have fixed these bugs. thank you again for sharing your feedback xBuggy
The interface and usability is awesome. The workouts are good and easy to follow and track. But it’s very buggy. It will crash minimum once during my workout, and will often reset the whole workout once I reopen it. It’s very frustrating. Aside from that aspect, the app is great.an0nym0us-213
