You can pay $6 to unlock it. No monthly fees for trainers that I don’t want or need. A couple shortcomings for -1 star: you can create multiple workouts of different rounds / lengths, but you can’t pick different punches to be called out for each workout. Be nice to have one workout that was all jab / cross, another with jab / cross and hooks for example. Also you pick punch call outs from a list which is tedious. Be much better if you could just add punches and combos by tapping 1,2,3 for jab, cross, left hook for example. But this app is simple, easy to use and effective. ### 3/5 — Gets The Job Done *2025-06-29* Works fine. 2 major issues I experience. If you leave the app the callouts are disabled upon returning (regardless of any background settings selected).The other issue is that the app timer appears to be off by a bit. A workout will say it’s “15 minutes” but be longer. I start the workout on the app and on my Apple Watch and the workout is always longer than the time indicated. It’s not a huge deal but I have to guess how long a workout will be when adjusting the settings. ### 3/5 — Gets The Job Done *2025-01-24* Works fine. 2 major issues I experience.

But some technical issues *2023-07-14* I’ve really enjoyed using this app. It’s has made creating my own personal boxing workout easy. I look forward to using it every morning. Unfortunately, it has a tendency to force quit right in the middle of the first round. If they can fix the glitch, I’d give it 5 stars. ### 4/5 — Good workout *2023-07-06, version 5.00* So far, this is the best I've found. However, it would be ideal if I could customize each workout with a unique mix of combinations. That would truly enhance the personalization aspect and would make the custom workouts more useful. ### 2/5 — Doesn't even work. *2023-06-22, version 4.17* Can't see or hear the combo callouts in the app. Why does it have to be so difficult to access and use what the app Claims it does? Pretty much all these boxing apps are terrible, and very user unfriendly. ### 2/5 — Used to be good *2022-08-22* I’m not happy with this app any longer because they suddenly without warning require a log-in and I have lost my custom workouts. That option now requires you to purchase the app. I used this less than a week ago but now I can’t do anything that I used to be able to do. It’s not the money necessarily but not even getting the option to keep my info or a notice that it was changing was crappy. ### 4/5 — Simple but good *2022-07-17, version 4.16* Would be better with kicks. Works to get some stress relief and wake up first thing. ### 2/5 — No sound *2022-01-29, version 4.15* I used to love this app until I couldn’t hear the combo’s being called out. I’m not sure what happened. The app is vibrating but no sound. Please restore. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2021-07-08, version 4.14* This is easier than some of the other apps to use. The only negotiate is the voice over speaks to fast with the combos. ### 2/5 — Crashes, inconsistent, waste of $ *2021-06-30, version 4.12* I’ve never experienced so many issues with an app outside of this one. It is constantly crashing and often times the audio doesn’t play or is choppy. A waste of time to download this. ### 3/5 — Nice but has bugs *2021-06-17* I use the app all the time, but there are bugs and there’s no way to report them. There’s a “send email” button, presumably to developers, but it does nothing. Pausing when the timer is close to zero crashes the app. When the workout is finished, the button to end it is covered by a tooltip, so there is an annoying delay if you want to restart the workout, which happens often because the screen lingers over from the last time you used the app. None of these are dealbreakers, but it would be nice to see them fixed. ### 5/5 — NO SOUND!!!!! *2021-05-01* I understand people have to make money. I had an awesome boxing Callout app on my Samsung and switched to apple and figured I’d try this one. Looked awesome !!but at least let me hear the HEAR THE CALL OUTS and see if it sounds horrible or just not worth it. I tried another and it was not good at all. It’s a real shame because not many choices on apple for this sort of app. I only needed to hear the call outs for 2 minutes and would have probably purchased lol. Well nice app other wise I guess. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Good app but *2022-04-23, version 4.16* Was using the free version, worked great, some bugs but nothing that bothered me much as I am just a beginner. The app updated and I lost the voice combination. Why they didn’t leave that feature and instead reduce the amount of rounds for the free version. Paying the small fee for more rounds is the better way to go. Poor monetisation decision. Deleting the app now ### 1/5 — Buggy & doesn’t work *2021-10-21, version 4.15* Awful, Siri speed can’t be changed. The workout names disappear instantly. No custom punches/combos. It’s super limited. Also, it adds a workout to your health data anytime it’s opened. Deleted. Getting refund. ### 1/5 — Обман *2021-10-20, version 4.15* Приложение не работает !!!! ### 1/5 — Awesome app but started crashing on me recently *2021-06-30, version 4.12* Can’t use it anymore if it keeps crashing ### 1/5 — keeps crashing? *2021-06-10, version 4.12* latest version crashes upon open ### 1/5 — No call outs *2021-04-03, version 4.00* Please figure out a solution to the recent disappearance of combo call outs. Only round announcements. So it’s on but not calling or displaying. But still counting punches?! ### 1/5 — Limited Functionality *2021-03-08, version 3.80* Limited combinations and defensive callouts. Paid version has less features than the free version of the Precision Striking app. ### 1/5 — new update screams in your ear *2020-09-25, version 3.4* there must be a bug with the new update because I began my workout today (with music playing, thru headphones) and the voice greeted me with an ear-splitting, ground-shaking shriek of a WARMUP with so much feedback and chatter it nearly broke my headphones!!!! Please fix this!!!! ### 1/5 — No features without purchase. No trial of features *2020-08-17, version 3.1* You literally don’t know what you’re buying... ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2020-04-01* The only thing the lite does is makes sounds as a timer........ my regular clock does that. Even if the allowed for calling basic combinations like 4 different sets I might have gone further but this just left me wanting to see more but I’m not paying for something I may not like. Basically not enough evil to bring me into the app to try a minimal workout ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good app *2025-12-19, version 5.41* Good app, small onetime purchase worth it for sure. Would be nice if devs added a way to save different presets for combos. For example, if I wanted to do kickboxing I could curate a combo list with kick boxing combos, aswell as a different list I could easily swap to when I don’t want to kick. I would also like to be able to make my own combos. ### 5/5 — Excellent App! *2025-04-22* I’ve been using this app 4-5 times a week for years, averaging around 40,000 punches a year. I can say the app works well and is reliable, and even gets the occasional update, such as a new “High Volume” setting, a male voice, and the addition of new combos/kicks. My ONLY REQUEST is the option to add in a warning sound to signal a round is ending soon. You’ll often hear the sound of sticks striking together 10 seconds before a round’s end in a real bout, and that would be perfect to allow me to switch to a punch-out flurry without having to look over and see how much time remains. Better yet, the ability to set when the warning sound triggers (such as 20 seconds before the end of a 3:00 round) would make an excellent app perfect. Side note, I like that it shows you how many days punching you’ve accumulated. There may be an upper limit to the counter because in 2023 I lost several days, but I think I’m over a week now in punches thrown. Crazy!! ### 5/5 — U *2024-10-15, version 5.16* Positional strategic warfare vS fifth agencies qualities in Middle East vSfood annihilation maintenance’s.SsS ### 5/5 — Ideal *2024-10-12, version 5.16* I have worked with FightCamp, Punchlab and Corner but always wanted something less boxercise and more a simple bespoke boxing workout. This is a perfect app for this because I get to choose almost all aspects of my workout. Would like to be able to create a workout and chose which combinations for it. Could you also add body shots to combos? My only whinges. ### 5/5 — Top *2024-01-07, version 5.14* Mit dem letzten Update wurden die bemängelten Fehler korrigiert. Klasse! Volle Empfehlung. ### 5/5 — Boxing *2023-06-05* The best boxing app ever it tells you how to box And keeps track what time is it and how many rounds you are you doing ### 5/5 — Favorite Fitness App *2023-05-12* As of this writing, I have logged 374 workouts/3629 rounds/7 days and 14 hrs. I use this app 5 days a week and have a fun, reliable workout that I look forward to every day. Being able to choose the frequency of combinations is great to dial in specific areas I want to focus on improving. Also, at the end of each workout the app displays a punch count. Knowing I threw 1600 punches before most people get out of bed is a real boost at the start of every day. Only request is an option to download workouts/punch counts into a .csv or .xls to be able to more easily analyze workout data, but as is the app is terrific. ### 5/5 — Great boxing workout app *2022-11-30, version 4.16* Great way to track your 12 rounds of heavy bag boxing ### 5/5 — Great *2022-10-07, version 4.16* AweSome App ### 5/5 — Excellent but would like to see a few changes for progression *2022-05-30, version 4.16* I love this app, it is an excellent workout and really helps me with my boxing. However, I would like to be able to access past workouts to check history on things like punch count and calories burn etc. Once the workout is done all it shows is that you did a work out and you can’t access it after that. Please make old workouts accessible and your app will be perfect! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
