### 2/5 — Stopped working

*2025-05-13, version 1.8.9*

App was great! Loved it! It helped me achieve 1000s of pushups. Somewhere along the line it started malfunctioning and now as soon as I try to start a workout the app just closes out & shuts down. Extremely annoying to the point I can’t even use the app anymore. Loved the app but now just disappointed.

### 2/5 — Not a fan of the new art style….

*2024-06-19, version 1.8.9*

What were they thinking!?!?!  I can’t be the only one who thinks this!

### 3/5 — Too bad

*2024-01-11*

This is a simple app representing a good cause. To bad the previous and new update don't seem to be able to count pushups. Sit-ups all good. I have checked settings I've reinstalled power off the phone still no pushup counting. Back in the beginning I used to use it to work fine but that was years ago both my newer iPhone SE and my 15 Pro don't work.

### 1/5 — Camera not counting pushups on new iPhone 15 pro max

*2023-10-19, version 1.8.7*

Love this app
But just upgraded to an iPhone, 15 promax which is awesome. I haven’t been able to get the app to count push-ups this morning. I did manage to succeed if I put the phone face down on the floor so it goes totally dark. I guess on the camera and then pick it up again, and it seems to work but can’t get it to work doing normal push-ups or even putting my hand over the camera doesn’t make it work. Could you fix this A.S.A.P. please thanks so much

### 2/5 — Not working on iPhone 15 pro max with dynamic island

*2023-10-14, version 1.8.7*

Been using the app for 2 years and it works great, switched over to iPhone 15 PM and it no longer works, developer please help

### 1/5 — Crashes when booting

*2023-06-16, version 1.8.6*

Can’t even run

### 4/5 — Issue

*2023-05-17, version 1.8.6*

This app has worked fab for about 2 years. But recently when I press the play button to start it crashes me out of the app. I re-loaded the app. Deleted. Started again but it still does. I can’t report the problem and I can’t get in touch with the owners. Hope it gets fixed as it’s a useful tool to help. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Embarrassing App

*2023-02-07, version 1.8.6*

I can’t believe Apple allows a non-working app that constantly crashes on the App Store.  This app is full of bugs and the developers don’t fix them.  This App should have a negative 5 star rating.

### 1/5 — Great app - crashing all the time

*2023-02-01, version 1.8.6*

Crashing everytime I click on anything

### 1/5 — Broken

*2022-11-29, version 1.8.6*

Got charged the £8.99 to unlock all features but hasn’t applied to the account. App just hangs when you try and restore purchases and no support available - avoid

### 3/5 — Ok App

*2022-11-23, version 1.8.6*

This is a fairly simple app. I do find that it usually misses the first push up or two. But once you get going it seems fine. Also the app stops counting once you have reached the defined limit so and extra effort is not tracked. 

However, whenever I try to change my daily goal from 22 the app crashes. (Trying to do 100 per day in five sets).

### 3/5 — Bug that prevents setting goal

*2022-11-02, version 1.8.6*

It’s been a really great app to motivate and count push-ups. Because of this app, I’ve been able to be consistent for months and I’ve seen significant improvements in my appearance and strength. 

However, recently I’ve been unable to set new goals in the statistics section. The app keeps crashing as soon as I press the setting icon to change the goal. This is extremely frustrating as it is one of the things that motivates me on a daily basis. Please have it fixed. 

Great app overall tho.

### 1/5 — Crashes- Good App until they stopped updating

*2022-11-01, version 1.8.6*

Enjoyed this app until it stopped working! Crashes every time. Needs an update but I’m not optimistic it will get updated. Very sad

### 3/5 — I like the app but it doesn’t work

*2022-09-30, version 1.8.6*

The open only opens every so often!!! Most of the time it just doesn’t open it’s annoying , I’ve deleted redownloaded and it’s still not working properly !! Fix this bug please !!!

### 3/5 — Iphone 14 pro

*2022-09-26, version 1.8.6*

Pushups do not register when using iPhone 14

### 3/5 — Not as good as it could be

*2022-08-13, version 1.8.6*

I was looking for a recommended app to record push-ups while I do them and this seemed to be recommended. The problems are that it seems to rely upon your body or clothing coming close enough to the screen to detect you have completed a push-up and this can take several attempts to get it right all while trying to reach your max goal 😩 I have also attempted to pay the upgrade price but not the app seems to just hang at that screen and get nowhere. I'm disappointed as I was quite enjoying this app and fell off it doesn't improve I'll just have to delete it.

### 2/5 — Worked great at first, now it crashes every time!

*2022-07-03, version 1.8.6*

This app worked great for the first six months but now it crashes every time I try to open it. 

I changed it to two stars because it will function if I use on data instead of wifi. 

But still it will not restore my purchased voice

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2025-05-27, version 1.8.9*

Crashes the moment I hit start.

### 1/5 — Absolutely terrible experience

*2025-02-04, version 1.8.9*

Absolutely terrible experience! I downloaded this app today and purchased a sound for pushups. The payment was deducted from my Apple account, but I still can’t use the sound—it keeps asking me to pay again. On top of that, when I tried to contact the help center, the app just froze. Total scam and a waste of money. Avoid this app at all costs!

### 1/5 — Used to be Awesome

*2025-01-17, version 1.8.9*

Doesn’t register pushups like it used to, rendering it useless.

### 1/5 — It hates my money!!!

*2024-08-13*

So I started using the app in January 2024 and, after achieving a milestone of 10,000 pushups, decided to purchase the app to get rid of the ads and be able to take advantage of the full feature set. Now the app still shows the pay prompt when I open it, still (more frequently it seems) hits me with ads, and neither the “Restore Purchases” nor the Support link work. And if I request refund I may lose access to the app altogether and therefore to months of statistics! What a terrible experience!

### 1/5 — App does not work on iPhone 15

*2024-06-19, version 1.8.9*

I love this app but I now have to find a new push up app. I had the Iphone 12 and the app worked perfectly. When I try to do push ups with the Iphone 15 it does not track each push up.

### 1/5 — Unable to count push ups

*2024-04-10*

Installed the app and did about 5 pushups. It didn’t count any.  Rested a minute and made sure I was going all the way down and the phone is centered on my chest. Still doesn’t count any. Literally, my breasts are touching the phone on every down. I can’t go any further down. Still has not counted one single push up. Good idea, but after doing my 22 pushups and not a single one counting, I’m done.

### 1/5 — Constant crashing on iPhone 13P on iOS 17.2.1

*2024-01-11, version 1.8.9*

Press start, CRASH! Man what a disappointment…

### 1/5 — Degraded detection

*2023-12-15, version 1.8.9*

Since 17.1.2 (iPhone 15), pushups are not being detected as usual. Appears to now require completely covering the front camera for a few seconds, which was not the case before

### 1/5 — Doesn't work on iPhone 15 pro max

*2023-10-23, version 1.8.7*

App no longer registers a push up on the 15 pro max

### 1/5 — Needs an update

*2023-10-22, version 1.8.7*

This app worked great until the iPhone 15 came out. Now, nothing registers. This desperately needs an update.

### 5/5 — Crashes on IOS 18.2

*2024-12-27, version 1.8.9*

Crashes on IOS 18.2

### 5/5 — I don’t want to break my streak !

*2023-11-02, version 1.8.8*

This app is super motivating. 

I’ve never done so many push ups in my life. 

It took me a month before I realised that there is also a separate streak for sit up! 

Please don’t stop developing it. 

It is a great app.

### 5/5 — Great idea

*2023-09-25, version 1.8.7*

I can’t keep count while focusing on breathing

### 5/5 — Newbie oldie

*2022-04-01, version 1.8.6*

I found this app while researching move to earn projects.  I like it so far.  I am interested to see how the exercise translates to DOSE tokens?

### 5/5 — Please fix where you can update goal

*2022-02-10*

Like other reviewer‘s have stated quite a while ago, you cannot update your goal. If you attempt to, the app crashes and you have to force close. Otherwise the app is great and very useful. Thank you.

### 5/5 — It’s doing a better job of counting.

*2021-09-17*

For a long time it was doing a poor job at counting all my push-ups, but in the last several months it’s been doing a very good job. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Piss up

*2021-02-23, version 1.8.5*

GoodGood 😌

### 5/5 — Amazing so far (some suggestions)

*2020-11-29, version 1.8.5*

I love how simple this app is, and how it just does what it does quite well.

Some fun thoughts for the devs if it’s easy to do:
- Add a sound for every rep and/or vibration in order to verify when a rep is counted without needing to hear the voice.
- Add the ability to remove or edit past sessions if possible.
- Add ability for reminders every x number of days, as some people like to do every other day or so.

Regardless this app is pretty amazing!

### 5/5 — Works well

*2020-11-13, version 1.8.5*

Put the phone so the camera is under you (upside down rotation) and it works well. Needs better reporting functionality to be 5 stars (by week/month etc) but I enjoy using it, doing 75 a day at the moment.

### 5/5 — Very nice

*2020-11-10, version 1.7.4*

I love this app it helps you get fit.
