$90 for a "free" app??
Are you kidding me?? I haven't even fully looked through the app and don't care to. Auto $90 charge on a FREE app is deceiving and sneaky. For that amount of money, I should have received emails listing what the next steps were. I hadn't added my credit card to this app, how was I to know there'd be a charge? ALSO, the options are to sign up for 3 months or a year...you auto renew me for a year??

Great app, app seems to be still starting out
The free version:
This app has great exercises and gauges personal ability well by asking how you feel about the difficulty and enjoyment of each workout. They don’t have a lot of options for workouts yet though as it seems like they’ll be adding new ones as they continue to develop. The workouts are about 10-15 mins each and you can do as many as you’d like and the yoga sessions are mostly 15-30 mins so I like to do the tabata combined with my own cardio and weight routine in the morning and a yoga session in the evening. Routine is the key to success and this app really encourages routine, they even offer reminders (but I keep em off cuz I’m navy and my schedule is inconsistent.)
BEWARE!!
I enjoyed the app enough to try the pro version. The app advertises either $5/month or $10 for 3months. I selected the second option and Apple billed me a recent that says I’m being charged 10/month for three months (so $30 for three months!!) So now I’m paying twice as much for the pro version. Seems like a shady option to begin with but I’ve contacted support and will give them five stars if it’s an honest mistake ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ like I said it’s still a growing app but definitely gife it a shot!

😡
Don’t download!! Charges you even though you didn’t authorize any charges!😡
Really helps!
I just did my first workout today and the variety is so good! Although you have to put payment details in you get a free trial for a little while so once you’ve done lots of different workouts you can get rid of your payment and do it without the app. It really helps me track my food and certain workouts. Absolutely love it!! the videos really help :))

Absolutely love this app
The amount of content that this app has is far beyond any other fitness app I have used! I use this as much as a can and I thoroughly enjoy the programs they provide as well as the nutritional aspect to it. I would highly recommend anyway who is looking to download a fitness app whether beginners or intermediates, this app has you covered on all levels.

This app rocks
Seriously! It’s really hard to be motivated but the fact that these exercises are quick it’s easy to get over! The workouts are great! Gives you simple exercises that you can review before you start. Even if you forget as you go through it shows a video of the move, super helpful!! It has also motivated me to finally start doing yoga! Gives simple tips that are super encouraging! I’ve only been using this app for about two weeks and use all things that are completely free! I would recommend this app to anyone trying to get some healthy habits! I feel better about my body already!

Just what I needed
Great app - workouts are designed for my exact level and ability so I feel I've got a realistic goal to improve everyday
Just what I needed!!!
I love this app, the set up is simple. You can pick pounds or kgs. The workout is easy to follow and set at your own fitness level, but can also be adjusted if too easy or too hard. You can add additional workouts to help problem areas, or you can choose a yoga workout or cool-down. As for the food, there are so many options to choose from, you pick if you have a special dietary requirements , you choose what type of meal you like I.e. quick, budget, family, a la carte, the choices go on; it’s easy to let it know you are eating out or maybe just skipping a meal. You can switch recipes easily too.
I downloaded today, so far I’ve done a workout, a yoga cool down and had the lunch suggested. I’m looking forward to the dinner later. I have signed up for pro, to pay in one payment as it’s so much cheaper. But you also get to do a 7 day free trial, so if you really don’t like it, you can cancel. I’m personally going to stick with it. Oh yeah, you can pick the time and day of your next work out, so if you have to miss a day that’s cool, maybe squeeze 2 workouts in one day to make up for it. I will follow up next month and let you know if I am still loving it.

Great app, great customer service!
This app is mind blowing because of the amount of content it provides even with just a free version. The creative recipes, grocery list and being able to track your progress are what I really love about this app because of the simplicity it provides.
But that’s not the only thing that’s great about this app. I recently came across a problem where I was e-mailed (to my utter shock), that I purchased the year long subscription. This was a major problem for someone who is doing all she can to save money. I immediately contacted the 8fit customer service about it and they gave me a set of instructions to follow and I was able to resolve this problem. Both the app and the people behind them are very helpful!

My most used workout app!
This is a review for the free version of the app.
I love it! I have a few workout apps (Nike training club is another one of my favourites) but I find I use this one the most. I think it's because all the workouts are so short - 9-15 minutes based on what I've done so far. That means they're never intimidating and super easy to fit in on days I otherwise wouldn't work out. It also helps that the app has instructions for each of the moves and workouts for MANY different levels do I'd say this is great for beginners! I also like that you have the option of a warm up and there's a great yoga cool-down vid.
I also find the steps graph with an adjustable steps goal much more motivating than the plain old apple health app.
