### 1/5 — App crashes, no updates in 2 years

*2019-01-07, version 2.61*

App has not been maintained and cannot be opened in iOS 12.

### 1/5 — App Does Not Work Well

*2017-08-18, version 2.61*

Early on, this app worked alright and I could get some readings. I have all of my software and the app both completely updated and the app will not work at all- completely ruins whatever practical applicability the software had in the 1st place. 

Avoid this product and save yourself the time. I will be returning ASAP.

### 1/5 — Very disappointed

*2016-11-20*

It does not work. I have the finger sensor which does not give a reading even with plug or the adaptor. It takes about 2 mins to detect, then gives an error count in less than 30 secs. Took the sensor off and app started detecting my pulse, and then attempting hrv but again gives an error count in under 30 secs. Wonder if I have been duped.

### 1/5 — Not good.

*2016-07-14, version 2.5*

Bought it online for $289.00 (way overpriced) the heartrate strap is cheap, the book is a generic description of periodisation which no insight into hrv, recovery methods etc... There are tons of free apps that do a much better job. As far as reading go, my hrv on bioforce contradicted when tested against 3-4 other hrv apps, this one scores at the lowest. Sorry, but it needs an overhaul.

### 4/5 — Great App for Athletes

*2016-04-24, version 2.5*

HRV training is the real deal. I love this app for monitoring my training!

For those of you giving a bad rating. It does clearly state in the app information that it's not a stand alone app and does require a license. This is why you can't get past the login. There is a book, video, HR monitor, and program you have to purchase prior to use.

### 1/5 — Busted

*2016-04-13, version 2.5*

Can't get past login screen, even without an account. Worthless.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2016-02-28, version 2.5*

No way to get past login screen at start. Totally useless.

### 1/5 — How can it be this bad?

*2016-01-25, version 2.5*

Upon opening the app, you're forced to a login page, which you cannot get past without entering the correct log-in credentials. I haven't yet signed-up. There is no option to sign-up. I'm sure you can see the ridiculous bug that renders this app worthless.

### 1/5 — Won't launch

*2016-01-03, version 2.5*

POS won't launch

### 5/5 — Bad update

*2015-11-03, version 2.5*

This update was supposed to fix ios9 issues, but instead completely broke the app for me.
