Great, but annoying bugs not fixed for years
I reported some bugs to the dev years ago and they acknowledged it. Time goes by, new releases get all the new marketable features, but minor yet super annoying issues are still here. If you travel between the US and the rest of the world, your weights will not get actually converted when you switch the units back and forth: the numbers stay the same, only the units name change. This used to work fine before, but stopped at some point years ago. I am now permanently in Europe and have to calculate all my weighs from kgs each session to input them in lbs the app. There used to be an export function which allowed to download the data, which I could use to recalculate myself and reimport the weighs, but that is gone now with iCloud sync, which is a significant regression on its own. The other bug is with Apple Watch: if you have a Quick Menu configured to show next set and edit previous, it will NOT let you edit previous set if it was the last one in workout. You have to finish the workout and edit that last set by hand. I progress with each workout (Hepburn Method), so I have to do it each time. These aren’t big deals to be fixed, but somehow after 4 years or so they’re still here. I even inquired about them again just a month or two ago and got no response whatsoever.Show lesscromki
Bummed.
I’ve used this app since 2018 and was completely enthralled by how user friendly it was and how easy it was to track your workouts. I absolutely loved the feature where they created a workout for you based off of your regenerated muscles and created an hour long workout session that was unique and different than the last workout. Unfortunately I have stopped using it (still paying for it cause I’m hoping it will magically go back to its former glory) because when I ask the app to generate workouts it always gives one actual workout and then the rest are 15 min stretches or cardio or rope workouts that I don’t want. I wanted it to give the hour workout with actual exercises and it doesn’t do that anymore. I’m not sure if it’s a setting I somehow chose or what but it’s very disappointing not being able to have workouts generated that are more than three 15 min stretches or rope workouts for an intended 45 min lift. Very sad about the change and wish I could have the old version back.Show less0008681
The Best
I very rarely leave feedback, but wanted to thank the developer with a 5-star review. I have downloaded dozens of weight-tracking apps. And I’ve even paid for multiple. None come close to the functionality that is built into this great app. A few of the things I love include Apple Watch integration, live tracking of heart rate, ability to easily customize weight and sets during workouts, the customizable pause settings between sets, the visual interface of the Apple Watch app, the visual interface of the avatars that actually represent your body weight, the tracking of past workouts on the phone, and the ability to copy/paste sets and weight information easily. And on top of all that, all data is synced to the cloud and across multiple devices. There are only a few things I would like to see added. It would be nice to be able to see history on the Apple Watch app. I would like more “recommended” workout routines that are customized to you and progressively change weights over time (like in the Workout App). And it would also be nice to have a “lifetime” subscription option (like in the Workout App). But I won’t take off a star for any of those because this is truly a best-in-class app. Thanks again to the talented developer!Show lessmidwestsierra
