I love this app!
I am a OC and dragon boat paddler and this app has been incredible! First of all most apps don’t even have a paddler option for workouts- mostly running and indoor machines. 1. The graphics and layout are fun and easy to read. Which is nice when you are trying to gather data on your workouts. I hate an ugly app. 2. Easily links to my heart monitor, whether it’s my Apple Watch or the strap. 3. The voice option is perfect when I’m out on the water ... I link to my headphones to my phone and during training, the app will tell me my heart rate, calories burned, distance, etc. which is valuable when you have to know what your body is doing and how to push it or ease up. 4. Completely worth the money. This app has dramatically helped my training and I tell everyone about it.Show lessMoonwafer
Disappointing
I had a paid subscription, without issues, for years, up until recently. I started to get some odd workout readings (eg 24 hour walks) registering in Fitbit. These appear to have originated in FITV and were being synced everywhere else. As a part of troubleshooting I sought assistance from Fitbit, who suggested it was a third party app causing the odd results. I disconnected any third party apps to see what might be the culprit. Connecting FITV back, I got the odd results again. I reached out to FITV tech support, who first ignored my emails but after sending screenshots of the odd results, responded by saying it was a Fitbit issue, not their problem. Disappointing and lacklustre response to say the least. Especially as this is the only query I’ve ever submitted but received no actual support. I’ve now gone elsewhereShow lessMsLeLeezy
Good app
Been using this for about 9 months and been very pleased with it. Functionality is good and provides the level of exercise feedback I want. Had one minor glitch (app reverted to trial version for some unknown reason) but the MotiFIT support was excellent: very quick advice on how to rectify problem which worked immediately. Would recommend this app.Show lessIanM17
Didn’t sync properly
I liked the concept of the app and that other fitness apps synced with it HOWEVER, I wasn’t able to start any workouts with the app on my phone at all without a sensor. I had attached my Apple Watch and did all troubleshooting but it wouldn’t use that as my sensor. Had no problem starting a workout from my Apple Watch but if I created my own workout on my phone, it wouldn’t sync to my watch so I could start it. Tried deleting/redownloading/signing out/in/unpair/pair everything I could think of but nothing had it all working together. I’m not going to pay for an app that doesn’t do what it says it can which is disappointing as I really like the concept. If it worked, I would have stuck with it.Show lessVictoriaJoyce
Good app but some annoying bugs
I’ve been using FITIV for a while now and it’s a great app that covers a lot of workout types.
I’m predominantly CrossFit and kettlebells but I also go running twice a week. The fact it doubles up as gps with km breakdowns like a running app but can then be a heart rate monitor for other workouts is great for me.
However, there are a couple of annoying bugs that almost made me switch or try to find an alternative. I hope the developers read this and fix the bugs so it will then become a perfect exercise companion.
1) pretty much every workout, the music stops playing. I listen to music and podcasts in my AirPods from my phone but every workout, at some point, the music will pause, meaning you have to swipe to another screen and play it again. Sounds small but if you’re in the middle of an Amrap or workout where you’re just trying to grind out the reps as fast as possible or as many reps as you can, it’s annoying to have to stop to do this.
2) a lot of the time, particularly on runs, it can take a while for the heart rate monitor to kick in. On numerous occasions, it says the first km or two of my runs look like I was barely out of a walk, reflected in the gps map when it appears like the first 1/3 of my run was barely even a warm up. In other workouts, you can sometimes swipe and swipe back again to “kick it in” but I’ve found it’s more problematic on runs.
All in all, a good app but the bugs are really annoying.Show lessPistol amore
Buggy
The app has been great until just recently. I utilize my Apple Watch to start tracking runs. Later when I open the app to look at stats, I find that the app is still timing the run/workout that ended hours prior... definite fix needs to be made. Update: the app continues to get worse... thinking of canceling my subscription. The GPS is horribly inaccurate causing the app to randomly track obscure zig zags in my route when running, tracking the starting point anywhere from 200ft-1/4mi away with a sprint at my actual starting point, and recording my end 200ft-1/4mi away. I’ve done hard restarts on my phone and watch, reset my compass/GPS... nothing solves the problem. Major updates needed for this app to be worth paying for.
Update: why does this app keep booting me out and telling me to upgrade to a paid membership?! Get you stuff together FITIV!Show lesshooknlddr27
Great App
Worth the money for premium in comparison to other apps out there. Great integration only a little problem with the streaming to iPhone sync in that I see 2 entries for data when I use both iPhone and watch but maybe just timing - keep up the great work.Brains70
Terrific app
Have been using for several years now. It’s a terrific app. Room for improvement would be making it easier/simpler to create custom workouts with simple features like a 15 sec countdown at the start.J£$!
Love it
I am really good at learning things that are naturally passions for me but fitness is not one of the things that comes easily to me, so I always struggled with getting a workout routine started because there’s so much to learn and I’m just not as naturally inquisitive about this as I am with other things. The Fitbiod app changed all that because it plans out the workouts for me and rotates through the muscle groups. This has allowed me to casually look things up as I choose to learn them (or not) without needing to obsess about all of those details upfront. This has changed everything about what is possible for me in terms of successful fitness, by making it possible at all. It feels like a miracle! What was always impossible before. I am so happy! Thank you for this app.Show lessMikesterAZ
Good but freezes a lot at the moment
I’ve had this app for a few years now but in the last couple of months, when I’ve gone to use it, it freezes when I select a workout half the times. Since I use this to play sport, if it’s not working by the time the game starts then I can’t use it for that workout. If this was fixed it would be a 5/5.Show lessShyte :(
