  • Good, but has issues!

    The app is excellent when it works 100%. I have a constant issue with it not starting up on my Apple Watch. To get around the issue, I have to uninstall the app from the watch and then re-install (support told me to do this). It will work for a period of time and then fail again, just stating “starting workout” on the watch and hanging at that point. It is so frustrating as the app does everything I need it to do when it works, heart rate zones etc. Please fix the issue and I may well renew my subscription when it expires, if not, I will look for an alternative or invest in a Polar or Garmin device.

  • Awesome auto activity and Strava upload

    I wrote the below... and gave 5 stars now I realise that the app is glitchy... it fails to start activities and stops during start ups saying that you can resume but it never allows you to. Old version “It always annoyed me that Apple activity wouldn’t talk to Strava... now FITIV talks to both so I use fitiv for all my activity and let it do all the syncing! Well worth the annual price!”

  • Awesome app but ...

    Hi developers. Love the concept of the app. In general it’s awesome. My biggest gripe is that it randomly disconnects from my heart rate monitor and loses the info of the work out. I don’t know if these two things are directly related but you would think that if it is recording it saves the information. Even if I check the app after ten minutes of it being down it would be good to have saved the work out. Then I can simply restart and go on. But currently I’m losing half or the whole workout and I don’t want to be constantly checking if it’s working or not. Can you help?

  • Want to like it but cycle miles aren’t showing

    I love the interface, the customizations , the watch display, etc. But the one item I want to see on the dashboard is cycling miles! It’s available in the list but when added, refuses to show any data though! When I look at individual workouts, the data is in the app. Mileage is accurate in the workout view. It’s also the same for cycling pace. Switch to dashboard and its blank - just placeholder dashes. I would like to be able to view cycling data in the dashboard view as the dashboard is extremely useful. All the heart rate and heart range data is absolutely gorgeous. So there’s so much to love here, except for the fact that my most desired metrics refused to display in the main view I hope to see.

    I contacted the developer 3 days ago. I received an email saying that they have a ticket on the item but have had no reply since then. I have reinstalled with no fix. Again, let me say if it would display the specific data I wanted, I would rate this as the absolute best app for cycling I’ve ever used. It beats Strava hands down in my opinion.

  • With series 4 watch this almost replaces Garmin

    I love this program and the new Apple watches and I really want to leave my Garmin and iPhone at home. This app now has the gps accuracy to match all my know routes to within the same approximate standard deviation as my Garmin did. The only thing that still forces me to bring the Garmin is lack of a watch display field choice for split pace. Any serious runner trying to control pace needs this. Instant pace is too under damped and average to overdamped and targeting a certain pace for a given mile / split can’t be done without knowing what the current average value has been up to the current point in the mile. I am a member of 3 running clubs and this is the most common metric all the runners I know use, I’m shocked it’s missing (Strava app does have it but lacks a lot of other things). This has to be so trivial to add ... please consider it.
    Update: Very responsive developer ... changed rating to 5 stars do to visible progress

  • Hey

    It works for me
  • Updated: I just love it

    Update: Monica got back to me right away and all I needed to do was click “restore purchases” a few times to trigger communication with the App Store. BOOM! I’m now a Pro Member like Im supposed to be. Easy peasy. So that said and done if they decide to add nutrition logging to the app, which I hope they eventually do, I’ll change this to a five star rating.

    The app is great. I love it. It has almost all the features I need and want and some I didn’t even know I wanted. It sucked me in with the free trial and I was instantly hooked. Everything was simple to understand. The layout is fresh, easy to maneuver and, my favorite part, editable. So there’s nothing that I see that I don’t want to and there’s nothing that I can’t see that I do want to. However, one day I woke up and my free trail was over. Boom! I was a free member and none of those amazing features were usable. So I gladly paid for the yearly membership. Who wouldn’t? The app is incredible! Well, take my word for it and be cautious. Pay for a month first and see if it works because it didn’t for me. The only feature it gave me was nutrition. Everything else is saying I need to upgrade. So I basically just paid ten dollars for what I already have to input into a free app anyway. Smh. I’m disappointed to say the least and hope that my ticket gets responded to promptly because I don’t like paying full price for a fraction of a product.

  • Good but some probs with Apple Watch

    I really like this app but getting the app to work on Apple Watch can be a pain as when choosing a workout it is really slow to react can take up to 5 minutes for it to start, an automatic start would be better as I presumed that once selecting the workout it started to record however you have to select start but didn’t realise this until 15 minutes into a workout so really quite annoying. My watch and phone are up to date so think it’s just a glitch in the app hope it improves, otherwise it’s really good

  • Almost perfect. Love the focus on heart rate

    This is a great workout/running app. I’ve waited for a little over a month to review to get a good feel for the app.

    I love the user interface and plenty of customizable options within the app. There are also plenty types of workouts to choose from. If you can’t find the workout you’re looking for, you’re able to create one. The graphics are great and easy to read while on the move. I also love that the graphics are heart rate centric with other pertinent info around it.

    The only drawback is I would love if they included a heart rate zone based training program— with LIVE heart rate based coaching. I had the adidas MiCoach system before and loved the way they integrated live coaching based on your heart rate zone. Each day was different, easy days...tough red zone days. The intervals kept it interesting and made me a better runner, while also helped with bursts of speed and becoming more athletic. I sent feedback to the team but unfortunately did not get a response. Ultimately, I signed up for their premium subscription and hope to see that feature added in the future.
