I really enjoy the easily used real time feedback while rowing. It is also great having the wide range of workout metrics that are available. Thank you!
Just started rowing with app, Great workout.
As any serious rower knows, there are hardly any “good” apps that help us track our rowerg sessions, especially when you are bouncing around different machines like Concept2, TechnoGym, etc.
This app is the first I have come across that is filling the gap in a meaningful way. Interface is excellent, and compatibility with Apple Health + Apple Watch is great.
If you’re not on a Concept2, it estimates your distance, but allows you to play with the distance calibration—I have suggested to the team that they allow the user to retroactively input the distance after the workout is complete, so hopefully will see an update soon.
Thanks guys!
This is an awesome app especially if you have an older rower with not much data! Super easy to setup! monthly fee for the pro version is absolutely worth it! Don’t waste your time searching other apps this is the one.
Provides a lot of detail that the native Apple Watch rowing workout omits; makes exercising across different types of rowing machines feel more consistent. Note that Apple’s calorie count logic undercounts calories (by at least 50% in my estimation) and this app cannot fix that, but in all other ways it works very well and has a nice interface.
Is there a fix to this just Auto pausing in the middle of a workout? I just signed up for Pro

Thank you for your review and downloading the app. It seems like the app on your watch (which does the tracking) is not recognizing that you are making a rowing motion. If the watch doesn't detect any rowing movement for 30 seconds, it pauses the workout.
Which wrist do you wear your watch on? Does the crown face towards your hand or up your arm? Please check if this is also set accordingly in the system settings of your watch.
btw. you can change the pause behaviour under settings->other on your Rowing Workouts app on your Apple Watch.
If there are still problems, feel free to get in touch again.
please contact me by mail develop@gogolith.deFound this app through a Reddit thread and gave the free version a try. My rower doesn’t offer much data, so this app is a great addition as I follow along with YouTube workouts. The two things I wish I could change (and may you can, and I just missed it) is having the iPhone app work when the phone is horizontal, and, more importantly, it would be great to see my time spent in heart rate zones. It’s really the only thing I miss about using the Apple Watch to track my workouts, so hopefully the developer will continue adding these features!

Thank you for your review. A landscape mode is already on the feature list for one of the upcoming versions. The time spent in the heart rate zones is currently displayed after each workout. However, a live view during the workout is also planned.
Please feel free to send any further requests and feedback to develop@gogolith.de.This is an awesome app especially if you have an older rower with not much data! Super easy to setup! Only issue I had is it’s not tracking my heart rate or calories but that was quickly solved with a email from developer! (Just a setting issue) monthly fee for the pro version is absolutely worth it! Don’t waste your time searching other apps this is the one.
Thank you to the developer for helping me figure out the problem between my app and the watch. Everything‘s working great now I’m super excited to have this count my workout. My machine does very little to tell me my SPM etc.. thank you for this app!
