I don’t understand why other similar apps do better in top app charts - I guess it’s just marketing. Good exercises, with random variation to keep things interesting. Good videos. It'd be good to have a native iPad version. ### 5/5 — Great workout *2017-09-26, version 2.0.2* Intense day starter Nice variety ### 5/5 — I love it *2017-09-21, version 2.0.2* Amazing app, I feel Good use it. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Can do this *2017-09-02* Greats 7 min workout --- on day 3 and can already feel it. Was having a hard time finding time for a workout. With this workout, I can make 7 minutes. I like how you can customize it to equipment you have on hand. Excited to see the results in 30 days...plan on keeping this as a daily routine. ### 5/5 — Good variety, some annoyances *2017-08-27* I have been using this for three days. After using a more generic 7-minute workout app for awhile, I wanted some variety without having to pay a subscription. This program has lots of variation in the exercises, and three difficulty levels to choose from. Its a keeper for me. However I do have some things I wish were different: - you can sub out exercises you don't like from a list. But the options given seem to be all at the same difficulty level, which is frustrating if the reason you are subbing out is because something is too hard (for example I can't do push-ups but it didn't offer a knee-pushup option unless I had 'beginner' chosen in my settings). -the delay is actually 15 seconds between exercises instead of the prescribed 10, once you add in the voice commentary. If you reduce the time in the settings, to 5, this is solved. -I wish you could see the video of the next exercise DURING the 10-second pause so you could prepare, but instead it only starts on time, which leads to delay if you are unfamiliar with the exercise. (You can however do previews before starting your workout). -I wish the video would repeat more times for those of us that are slow learners! -there are some audio reminders, eg back straight' but only on some exercises--I wish there were alot more. I giving this four stars and will hope that in future some things will improve with a few simple fixes. ### 5/5 — Great app. Love it!!! *2017-08-02* We do this with our whole family. Love it ### 5/5 — Great workout. *2017-07-29* 7 minutes is a good start to build stamina and a routine. Love this app. Step by step instructions with models make it that much easier to understand what each of the exercises are. ### 5/5 — Lolo is the best! *2017-07-18, version 2.0.2* I love all the Lolo apps! They're easily customizable to your fitness level, time you want to spend working out, and available equipment. ### 4/5 — Lovely *2017-07-17, version 2.0.2* Very supportive for a day when I'm not in a mood of challenging workout ### 5/5 — Great effective and fast workouts *2017-07-10* This is an easy thing to squeeze into my day! ### 5/5 — Quick effective workout *2017-06-21* I use this app when I'm short on time but still need a good workout. Gets my heart rate up and works my muscles. Love this app! ### 4/5 — Great addition to running *2017-05-26* Great program to accompany my running. Keeps you moving, and totally adaptable to whatever equipment you have or don't have. Hated the constant reminders to leave a review. Would have been 5 stars if the warning did not pop up after every workout. ### 5/5 — Pina *2017-05-01, version 2.0.2* Awesome ### 5/5 — Fun & useful *2017-04-11, version 2.0.2* Good variety of exercises gives you a wide range of exercise series to do each morning a quick but healthy daily routine. ### 5/5 — Love *2017-04-08, version 2.0.2* Help me a lot thanks ### 3/5 — Good but *2017-03-26* How about Apple Watch functionality ### 5/5 — Super *2017-03-11* Super App mit Videoanleitung ### 5/5 — Really very, very good for basic workout *2017-03-06* I've tried a few other short, intense workout apps, this is by far the best. Once you set your parameters (based on equipment available) it creates routines which vary daily. I especially like the videos which accompany and introduce each exercise to review form, etc. The music is nice although not too important to me. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bought these apps a while ago *2020-11-16, version 2.0.2* I used to use them frequently but now they require me to login and be cloud connected and won’t start until I share my private information. Waste of space now. Go steal private information elsewhere and not from paying customers. ### 1/5 — App requires you to create an account *2016-05-16, version 2.0.1* Used to use this app. But ever since it has required you to create an account it has gone to the dustbin. ### 1/5 — Update is garbage *2015-12-31, version 2.0.1* Update requires signup. I'm not comfortable with that and I don't need yet another account in a random website. Don't bother with this app. It was good for a quick 7 minute workout. Now it wants to monetize and to violate your privacy and to be intrusive. It became garbage. ### 1/5 — ACHTUNG! *2015-11-03* lolo führt mit diesem Update unangekündigt den Registrierzwang ein, ohne ist keine Nutzung mehr möglich! Ob der „jetzt nicht“-Button absichtlich oder versehentlich weggelassen wurde, weiß ich nicht; wer aber keine Registrierung seiner Daten (Account) wünscht, sollte keinesfalls updaten! ### 1/5 — Can't sign up *2015-09-05, version 2.0* Not optimized for iphone 6+ either ### 1/5 — I want to like this but it won't keep me logged in *2015-05-02, version 1.6.1* This ap is great but it won't keep me logged in so I can't track my progress. It's extremely distracting. I want to motivate myself and workout but instead I have to keep logging in and starting from scratch. I would not recommend this app for anyone until they fix this issue. ### 1/5 — Avoid *2015-04-11, version 1.6.1* Loses track of where you are and even some settings (like beginner or intermediate). Tried full reinstall, but now it won't even remember my login and I have to enter all my credentials from scratch. Loved the workouts, but not if it takes me minutes just to set it up each day. ### 1/5 — Siempre se reinicia al día uno *2014-10-13, version 1.6.1* Cuando empiezo cada día la app se reinicia al día uno en el segundo ejercicio por eso pienso desinstalarla recomiendo probar primero una gratis ### 2/5 — Some good, lots infuriating *2016-12-30* The first thing to say, is that when you can get this app to work the way that you want it to, then it's great. But it has so many infuriating features, that most of the time you can't. The most notable of these, is that every single time that you leave the app, even just for a split second as you accidentally tap a notification, the entire app resets. If you've spent time setting up a workout and playlist, watching videos of the exercise, the second that you step away for even a second, everything is gone. Another frustrating feature, is that this app records the active calories of your workout to Apple Heath, but for some reason, they don't count towards your active calories for the day. I did a workout where I burned 91 calories. They were logged in Apple Health, but my total calories for the day still read 27 (it was the morning). For some reason, the calories from this app don't count towards your Apple Health totals. I tried to contact the developer to ask about this, but grew infuriated when trying, because anytime I clicked away from the app to check that the feedback I was giving was accurate, the app reset itself and my email was wiped. So I decided to air my frustrations in a review instead. And it's a shame, because this app has the potential to be really good. Like I said, when you can get it to work the way you want it to, it's great. But good luck getting that to happen. ### 2/5 — Completely loses state whenever it loses focus *2015-05-12, version 1.6.1* If you use multi-task to switch away from this app for even a second it completely loses track of what you were doing and resets back to the beginning as if you were starting fresh again. The startup splash screen/sound shows up again and sometimes you even have to log in again. It's very frustrating when no other app behaves like this. Once you actually get it working the exercises are halfway decent. It allows you to pick the equipment you have on hand and set the intensity level on the fly which are all great but this daily login/data loss have to stop. Uninstalled for now... ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2026-03-28, version 2.0.2* Awesome apps ### 5/5 — Fan *2024-11-16, version 2.0.2* Me encantan las app de lolo, realmente tonifican el cuerpo en un tiempo muy razonable si si eres constante ### 5/5 — Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you *2020-03-31* I don’t know how to thank you for such a useful app. In this situation that all the gyms are close across the country this app is a must have. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 ### 5/5 — Just right *2019-04-20, version 2.0.2* Of all the exercise apps I’ve downloaded (a lot), this is the one I’ve stuck with. Not too difficult and not too easy. Just right enough for me to do regularly and consistently. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Please update it *2018-12-10, version 2.0.2* Hi, Great apps. Unfortunately, not available on Apple TV. Please update the app for iPhone X and apple TV. ### 5/5 — Awesome App! *2018-06-19, version 2.0.2* This app is just great. It's well cued, and changes up the exercises each day to keep the workout fun and interesting. It works even for an out of shape, geriatric aspiring athlete! ### 5/5 — A Quality App *2018-06-09* A surprisingly good workout when time is limited, customized to workout tools on hand. Pleasantly guided by by both audio and video with the ability to listen to your own music library. The variety of workouts is a great feature too. Think of the time and money you'll save by doing this instead of going to the gym! ### 5/5 — Looks great *2018-03-10, version 2.0.2* Thanks. ### 5/5 — No excuses. It's only seven minutes. *2017-12-22* Just turn it on and feel a little bit better about yourself when you're done. ### 5/5 — Top ohne Einwände *2017-11-28* Gute Videos, die die Übungen gut zeigen. Mehr braucht man nicht. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
