### 2/5 — Stats not saving

*2026-01-23*

Seems like a decent app but the stats don’t save so no better than just using an audio recording of the test.

### 3/5 — The User Interface is a little clunky

*2024-12-29*

Ok - works, but the UI is a little clunky and not intuitive as dont know where recent scores are saved when completed a test

### 2/5 — Really simple but wrong

*2023-12-22*

I wear reading glasses. 

I don’t want to wear my reading glasses while running.
 
Why are the buttons so small?
Does it cost more for bigger buttons? 

Towards the bottom of the screen during a test there is -> “Record Score” and then “Tap again to to stop” - WHY oh WHY is this in WHITE TEXT on a LIGHT GRAY BACKGROUND!! 
This should be VERY obvious what a sweaty person needs to do to stop and record a test. 
Seriously… fix this.

### 2/5 — Not worth $1.99

*2022-08-11*

I've been using the free version for a while and decided to get the Bleep Test Solo in order to record scores and have access to all the tests. Well, the tests so far do run but there is no way to record scores. I've contacted customer service and they suggested I've downloaded the wrong one, which I haven't (Not much help from someone called Ian). I will be looking for a refund even though it's not a great deal of money, although, much of the world lives on $2 a day, unfortunately.

### 4/5 — Great App

*2021-04-14*

I love the configurable stages - so flexible over and above standard beep tests. It would be great if it worked on Apple Watch though - any plans for this?

### 3/5 — No recording of results

*2020-08-22*

Good but the recording results feature doesn’t work.

### 2/5 — Bleep tear opinions

*2020-07-19*

the beeps for the next lap are sudden and have no warning-unlike other apps. I saw my first score then it disappeared, it says I have recorded no scores,not too happy.

### 4/5 — Button labels please

*2020-04-10*

There is no label or documentation I have found for what each of the four buttons in the top left do. I just ran a set, and it didn’t record my time.

### 3/5 — App is OK

*2017-03-31*

The fact it's customizable is great. 10m modified shuttle walk is easily calculated and applied. However it is not optimized for ios10 and is a battery sucker-drops 15-20% each time I test someone.

### 3/5 — Temperamental

*2016-09-27*

App doesn't always work, only when it wants to. It's let me down too many times. Currently there is a large white square in the top right of the screen and all buttons are inactive...

### 3/5 — Continuously freezes

*2016-08-18*

Good when it works but unfortunately it freezes when you open it up. The only way to get it working is to delete the app and re-install it. Not ideal if you want to keep a record of your progress (and you do don't you) as you lose it all when you delete the app. Sort it out please.

### 2/5 — Keeps freezing

*2016-08-04*

App keeps freezing. Only way to get it working is to remove it and reinstall- which looses all data

### 2/5 — Freezes

*2016-05-12*

Constantly freezes which means you have to delete the app and reinstall it which causes you to lose all your data. Very poor, may as well just have stuck with the free version !

### 2/5 — Freezes a lot

*2016-03-14, version 1.3.1*

For such a simple app you wouldn't expect it to freeze 3 out of 5 times.

The only way to unfreeze the app is uninstalling and then reinstalling.

If this issue alone was sorted then it would have been 5⭐️

### 2/5 — Keeps crashing

*2016-02-04, version 1.3.1*

This app just keeps freezing and has to be deleted, if that wasn't the case the app would be great!

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2021-04-15*

It’s does the beep test but it doesn’t do a custom beep test it’s a fake sorry

### 1/5 — 😡

*2021-02-13*

Haven’t a clue how this works

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-06-13*

The YITR 1 Test is very different. I can even know if my score is any relatable.

### 1/5 — Não consigo utilizar

*2020-02-07*

Após utilizar apenas uma vez o aplicativo não abre mais.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2019-12-24*

App great initially but then continually fails to open - very disappointing

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2017-03-28*

Had the free ap and the team ap and they both don't work. Purchased the solo ap as well and it worked, but didn't put the correct time in the graph. Went back to all again after I used it about 10 days ago and all aps won't work. Quite poor it hasn't been fixed over long period

### 1/5 — Utterly Useless!

*2016-08-30, version 1.3.1*

Doesn't work. I thought it was the free one which would freeze but it's both. Sort it out!!!

### 1/5 — UNRELIABLE AND SHUTS DOWN

*2016-02-12*

terrible, shut down, tried to contact developer for support, not one response. Purchased app again to re-try, shuts down again. Waste of time/money

### 1/5 — App Freezes

*2016-01-03*

Do NOT purchase. The App freezes after two or three uses.
Waste of a dollar.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2015-07-10*

I downloaded this application a month ago. It does not work, it freezes every time. I emailed to let them know and they did not reply. I have subsequently found a much better Bleep test application. If you are looking for a Bleep Test do not download this one. It is a waste of time.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2022-10-11*

Love this app please keep working on it

### 5/5 — Tough

*2020-10-26*

This app makes doing a bleep test so simple! 
Anything that doesn't add difficulty to something already mentally tough is 5 stars in my book! Thanks

### 5/5 — Good little app

*2018-10-30*

Cheap and easy to modify to exactly what you want. All you could ask for

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2018-07-29*

Very helpful and a must have app.. 
cheers

### 5/5 — Bleep test solo

*2016-10-15*

Drives me crazy! EVERY time I've not opened it in a few days it's frozen and the whole app need to be deleted and re-installed! Get it sorted! Useless

### 5/5 — Bleep test solo

*2016-05-12*

This program is free, unbelievable. You can programme any sort of bleep test you can imagine. You can change the distance between the shuttle lines, you can add in a rest between shuttles (good for HITT), you can manipulate the speed for each shuttle to the 4th decimal place (Kph), you can controll how many shuttles per level... The possibilities are endless... The ever so cool coding script (really simple) that gives you cool abilities like adding rests at certain stages and setting the rest time... And more. Plus this app actually works, it does what its says it will do, for free... I bought a few different bleep test apps thinking they might be even better, but the bleeps didn't even chime on time or even bleep at all, and none of them had any where near this level of control, it's unbelievable. 

This app has a bleep speed limit of 200 shuttles per minute for those thinking about using it for setting you running cadence... And at about 170bpm it begins bleeps on every other bleep... Which is absolutely fine because then you can simply focus on counting one leg... instead of two legs at 180 counts per minute... Unless you're a sprinter looking to run as fast as Linford Christi! But at the end of the day nobody is going to be able to run faster than 200 shuttles per minute unless they were shuttling between lines two feet apart haha. 

The app is a diamond... I'll put my money on that this app could even help top level athletes improve.

### 5/5 — Does what it says on the tin!

*2015-06-26*

Works well, a start delay would be ideal though! Could anyone tell me which test is the same as the RAF test??

### 5/5 — Top fitness great app

*2014-07-17*

I use this with every run it tracks progress well keeps you updated with live updates at milestones and always tempts you to work that little bit harder - well done NIKE

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-06-26*

AMAZING APP. LOVE IT!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏

### 5/5 — Great for many reasons.

*2014-04-05*

Not only it is a great app/test but there are so many things you can do with this. 
Exercise your cardiovascular endurance. 
Set a baseline for goal setting. 
Find your VO2 max. 
Pacer and push-up test. 
Record data for students. Pre/Mid/Post
