### 2/5 — Workouts are good, food logging is really bad

*2026-05-19, version 9.06*

It’s really hard to log food. I’ve paid for the annual, so I’ll give it a try for a bit, but it is significantly harder to accurately log food compared to similar products. Also no way to save favorites, at least not intuitively.

### 4/5 — One missing feature

*2026-03-11, version 9.01*

I really enjoy this app and have for years at this point. But I wish I had a way to tell the app that a particular exercise is out of my ability and it offer alternative options to build the skill necessary to complete the original exercise.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2025-08-17, version 8.88*

The last thing I want to do when I get home from work is plan and track my training session so when BodBot does it for you it's ideal! It's really helped keep me motivated. It allows you to input the equipment you have and what your goals are, how long you want to spend on sessions and also gives you the opportunity to say how hard you found the exercises so it can update for your next set! Great app!

### 5/5 — What you put in, is what you get out!!!

*2025-07-17, version 8.85*

This app is really something! I’ve used it on and off for years and recently really started to press in and customize it as much as possible. If you are serious about your fitness goals or even a beginner this is a great app that is affordable( great limited options and $60 annually for the full package!!!) If you follow the workouts and are completely honest in your responses this app will work out OUT!!

### 2/5 — I can't believe this

*2025-07-07, version 8.85*

After complaining about this problem, five years ago, I went back to the app to give it another try and it still will not schedule cardio on the appropriate days. I instructed it  in tailoring to schedule HIIT for Tuesdays and Thursdays and no matter what I do, it assigns it on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. So this is still not fixed after five years? Unbelievable.

### 4/5 — Need exercise classes added

*2025-06-13, version 8.84*

I love this app and am getting great results. However, can exercise conditioning classes be added?  Like the ones offered at Hotworx?

### 3/5 — Decent but could use some user experience work

*2025-05-23, version 8.82*

The workouts and adaptations are nice. However it would be nice to be able to select the exercises and preview them without “starting” the workout. There should be an explicit option to start or restart the workout so that you don’t miss the option to do the recovery and fitness tests so that your workout adapts to those as well.

### 2/5 — Best free option, but glitchy

*2025-04-28, version 8.79*

Great free option for users that need a fitness app. But it’s super glitchy. Scrolling labs and often have to switch navigation tabs to get the previous page to load. Toggling the @appstorage settings to save scheduling preferences does nothing between planning workouts and wanting to schedule my own. Needs some work and proper testing before updating.

### 5/5 — $1000 value per year

*2025-04-04, version 8.76*

Great app, well built and super useful. Hopefully they keep working on it so I can use it forever. I’m 5 years deep and it’s great. I’m in better shape than most people around me

### 4/5 — Awesome app

*2025-03-04, version 8.72*

I’ve been trying different fitness apps for a long time now. Been using fitbod for a year but this one is  really good for posture and strength issues. Especially if you have injuries.

Wish they had dedicated neck and adductor workouts, more forearm workouts.

There should be an option to choose how many sets I want by default. It tracks sleep wrong sometimes, the other day it said 16 hrs, when all my apps said 5.5 hrs. An option to add custom workouts like fitbod has would be awesome too. 

Also a negative rest timer like alpha progression app. 

But other than that. App is fantastic. Already subbed yearly. I hope they keep improving.

### 5/5 — Exercise when u want to

*2025-01-27, version 8.70*

I can customize it anyway I want 🥰

### 3/5 — Nice app, but a bit clunky

*2025-01-09, version 8.70*

This app has a number of nice features that make it a good choice for someone looking to start their fitness journey. The calorie counting feature is an eye opener when it comes to realizing how easy it is to put on the extra calories. And the ability to dial in your level of exercise to where you aren’t beat up is very nice. 
That said there are some features that I would expect from a $60/year program. 
1. The calorie counting input could really use some ease of use features. 
1a. ml units and grams are nice, but the input data available is not always consistent with what the values that are returned from the barcode scanner. Just include a unit converter.
1b. About 1/3 of the time the bar code scanner returns a “sorry, that isn’t in our database” so I have to enter in all the info myself. Fixing those that would
Fixing those two things would bring my C rating to a B. (4 stars)
2. To get an A (5 stars) I would expect to see:
2a. A camera based AI calorie importer, so you can just take a picture of the food and the AI can just figure out the calorie content from the photo. This would help immensely with home-cooked meals.
2b. 3D animations of all the exercises with visualizations of all the muscle groups that ought to be active in each step of the given exercise. I know you’ve included the image of the muscle groups, but that is a little difficult to translate to when and where those muscles should be active in the exercise set.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Worst application

*2026-05-04*

I took an annual plan of the application, even though money has been deducted from the account, am not able to use to paid features of it, asking me to buy the premium again

### 1/5 — Need training for the app

*2026-01-28, version 9.0*

Do not expect to start using this for the first time in the gym. The app requires a LOT of familiarization and setup before you can use it… i found out too late and wasted my gym time configuring the app. The interface isn’t user friendly. If you log the wrong weight or if you don’t enter a weight, there’s no way to go back and adjust it. There also isn’t a way to sub workouts once you’ve started. Use the free version before spending money on the app.

### 1/5 — AI non-existant, just algorithms. Waste of money!

*2025-11-06, version 8.92*

I tried the premium version and it is waste of money. Thinking that I could get help from AI but there is none. It’s similar to how a basic video game changes input after it’s received input. No smart AI is helping tailor the workout. I setup my training for it to plan my workout but gave it specific time each day to make workouts not go past, which is 45 min. It would always go over when I had warmups, exercises and cooldowns allowed. Even when I took out cooldowns and warmups, would still go well over. There is no AI or it would be smart enough to do such a basic task. Don’t waste your money or health with an app that fakes as a personal trainer competent workout creator.

### 1/5 — Broken AI

*2025-10-21, version 8.91*

The app started out great but the AI has gotten horrible. It set the workout to 45 min of rowing even though I don’t have that equipment listed as a home equipment. Or, it will do another extreme of 1 set of an exercise that has 7 reps then 40 min of stretching. Used to be an amazing app. Not going to renew membership

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2025-07-20, version 8.85*

I’ve been using this for 2 weeks and absolutely hate it and regret spending $60 on it. It doesn’t listen when you tell it what your goals are, what equipment you have, or what muscles you want to work on. If you have an injury, the “alternate exercises” all use the same body area and are just modifications of the same exercise so not helpful at all. If you say an exercise is too easy, it just adds reps not weight. Half of the exercises don’t specify if the reps are total or on each side of the body. I can’t rate this app low enough.

### 1/5 — Nothing works

*2025-05-19*

Worst app ever

### 1/5 — Zero Stars

*2025-05-18, version 8.81*

I knew an hour after I subscribed it was a mistake and now I can’t get anyone to respond to me. So many better and cheaper apps out there.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2025-04-26, version 8.79*

This is a joke of an app. Half of the exercises are not even in the system,some of them are labeled incorrectly,ai workouts were just not good whatsoever. Waste of money!

### 1/5 — Unhappy

*2024-11-22, version 8.64*

I was looking at the app and wanted to try it but before I knew it money was deducted off my account during this so called trail period I knew this was not the app for me. I am conservative, and the models that are used to perform the demo of the exercise are dressed in less than conservative clothing. which makes me feel uncomfortable..  I emailed support straight away with no reply twice. "The so called trail period".

Think now I have paid for it might as well try the workouts, Regarding the work outs, no  matter how I play with the settings it seems very focused on upper body workouts, it appears that you can add workouts to your schedule but I would like this app to include other muscle groups.

### 1/5 — Too hard for beginner

*2024-10-10, version 8.61*

I tried this to support my running. However, even after selecting the beginner level, the exercises were very difficult. My gym doesn’t have a lot of the equipment featured. Tried the home workout section, and the training plan was virtually all press-ups in different variations. Paid for the year upfront-very disappointed.

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-07-01, version 9.07*

Like 👍

### 5/5 — Best Fitness App Ever!!

*2026-05-26, version 9.06*

This app is my fitness lifeline! BodBot has been my key training app for almost a decade and going strong. Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Love AI updates and visuals

*2026-05-04, version 9.05*

Developer is killin it with the updates (in the best possible way).  Customization and insights are top tier. Sometimes the exercises have gotten repetitive but that could be addressed with the many options available.

### 5/5 — Recomendada

*2026-03-09, version 9.01*

Es muy efectiva y segura la aplicación

### 5/5 — BEST APP 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

*2026-02-23, version 9.0*

THE ONLY EXERCISE APP YOU WILL EVER NEED ☮️☮️☮️☮️

### 5/5 — Good training

*2025-12-22*

Good

### 5/5 — Smart training that actually works!

*2025-12-13, version 8.95*

Botbod has been brilliant for my imbalances and tight areas. The adaptive setting really does personalise the exercises based on how you move, not just a generic plan. I’m already noticing better balance and mobility. Easy to use and perfect if you want to train smarter, not harder. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Easy and has great free features

*2025-11-24*

Honestly been using this for a few months now. Really helps they have warm up portion and allows you to cool down after your intense workout. I had bit of hiccup recently with the app and ginger from customer service jumped in right away. Which makes me love the app even more. Great customer service goes a long way. You can add home or gym workouts. Add the equipment you have. You can permanently delete workouts or stretches you don’t like easily. Plus you can connect to your health all in free version not many free apps give you such access to such things. Bod bot is great. Highly recommend.

**Developer response:** Thank you Will_dee88, we appreciate the review! And we're always happy to help, so let us know if you need any further assistance by sending email to feedback@bodbot.com. Thanks again!
