### 2/5 — Cannot login

*2026-07-28, version 2026.07.20*

Unable to login to the app keep getting a error that safari cannot open! Useless app!

### 1/5 — Never Works

*2026-05-14, version 2026.04.20*

When requesting support I always get the answer to uninstall and reinstall. Complicated with very little functionality. Hard to use. If I can give it a zero star rating I would.

### 1/5 — App glitches and not syncing

*2026-04-23, version 2026.03.21*

The app is performing poorly. I have to constantly uninstall and reinstall the app just to get it to update and sync my workouts.

I recently lost at least a month’s worth of workout points

Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — Worst App Ever!!

*2026-04-06, version 2026.03.20*

Rewards I earned did not reflect on the app for months. After I called to get it fixed. My previous rewards never reflected. The app only worked a few weeks and then it displayed unable to load rewards again. It just keeps malfunctioning.

### 2/5 — Balance app review

*2026-02-26, version 2026.02.20*

The app is very stressful to use at it’s not always working, it didn’t record and of my December activities and sometimes it will disconnect my Apple health app and not update my workouts

### 1/5 — Poor App

*2026-02-18, version 2026.01.21*

Whoever is in charge of develop of this app must get fired. This app hardly ever works properly. Apple connection disconnect every week. Next thing the option to like is no longer there. You are forced to uninstall and install again. No maintenance whatsoever

### 1/5 — Always issues

*2026-02-05, version 2026.01.21*

Every update brings new issues with the app. Very frustrating!

### 1/5 — App

*2026-01-29, version 2026.01.21*

The app doesn’t not update 

You need to call in uninstall then re-install which is taking to much of my time. I need the app that is working and with all this trouble shoot that needs to happen

### 2/5 — Low budget

*2026-01-16, version 2025.12.12*

Tracking of data from devices almost always fails leading to looooong call centre fixes

### 1/5 — Terrible logo

*2026-01-04, version 2025.12.12*

The new logo on this app is absolutely appalling. I had to delete it off my Home Screen which now makes me use the app less. Functionality around balance is not ideal either sending to the website to then log in again
