Copy issues

I really like this app. It has a great range of features, and I’m impressed by how many products it recognizes when scanning barcodes—the food database is excellent.

The only issue I have is that you can’t copy meals from one day to another. At the moment, you can only duplicate them within the same day, which makes logging repetitive meals more time-consuming. I’ve already requested this feature and hope it gets added in a future update.

Another drawback is the Quick Log feature. If you quick log a meal one day and want to log the exact same thing on a different day, you have to enter everything again from scratch instead of simply reusing the previous entry.

Overall, it’s a great app with an impressive database, but adding cross-day meal copying and reusable Quick Log entries would make it even better.

Stable and varied

Great large selection of exercises, excellent UI/UX with minimal friction to your workout, and super stable app. Been using it for around 11 months now on an older phone and it hasn’t crashed once.
One critique is that sometimes the selected exercises will sometimes target the exact same muscle group in the same orientation direction etc the excellent exercise swapping tool fixes that though.
I was worried about getting an app from an influencer, but just like the videos Jeremy and his team put out, this product has been given a lot of thought and care.

Good but needs some practical adjustments

Like the first workout it programmed for me, good balance between traditional strength training with some stability movements mixed in. However there is no cool down after the workout is over, which is fine I guess because I can do my own thing, but with that missing the workout is not true end to end. The other issue I have is that you cannot listen to
Music at the same time as getting instructions. The log book also needs work because you cannot just copy and paste or doesn’t autofill you next set which is a little annoying because most often we repeat the same weight and same reps. I had the Ladder journal app and it has all those features I found to be missing here plus it has a lot lore options for different coaches and programs. Ie if you want to mix in yoga and or Pilates with strength training. And ladder is actually less expensive. I’ll keep trying it for the next 14 days but it’s not likely that I will subscribe.

Newbie Love

As someone who has spent the whole life trying to get into exercise with zero success, this app takes all the guesswork away. Now I have informative videos to watch to make sure that I’m doing the form correctly, which was a huge problem with me that I had no idea of. To have access to science and help without having to pay for a person trainer is huge. I recommend this to everyone.

Keep charging after cancellation

My partner cancelled his account and then they keep charging for it. We’ve emailed support several times and even though on the website they say they will respond within 24 hours, it’s been one month since the first email. They don’t send a cancellation confirmation or anything. We’ve tried logging into his account but it says there’s no account with his email. But when we try and sign up again it says welcome back, login in with your password.

Marvelous results from Réunion Island

I like this kind of follow up: complete and evolutive. The data base for the nutrition part is insane: you can find all food in it! And at the end of each training, I find funny to know how many moose or gorillas I pulled or pushed up 😁

Response from developer

Hello! Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We're so glad you're enjoying the follow-ups and seeing your progress evolve over time. It's also great to hear that the nutrition database has been so useful. We're happy the fun animal comparisons at the end of your workouts give you a laugh! 😄 We really appreciate your support and hope you continue enjoying the app!

Everything I need

I like that the app has everything I need all in one place. It’s been good to see the app develop as the owners listen to feedback.

No so smart AI

Ai is pretty dumb. If you want some basic information its ok, but overall is pretty useless. It keep swap kg to lbs, even i was always using metrics. Ai food scanner is completely useless, it recognises wrong food, not to mention about weight and ingredients

Forced into subscription in second step.

Tired of apps hiding subscriptions behind sign up steps. I get that you’re trying to skip out on paying Apple/Google their cut, but just be honest that your app will cost hundreds of dollars off the jump.

Response from developer

We aim to be transparent about our subscription options before any purchase is made, and we appreciate your comments.

Effective and efficient!

I am quite impressed with this app and programme. Have been trying to loose fat and gain strength for a while, binged a lot of information. But the app makes it actionable and gives clear data for you to get feedback from, which is so much more effective and efficient. It also takes some social and psychological factors into account, so my ability to enjoy food socially has actually increased!
