I won’t be renewing after my year purchase. A change I’d love to see is alternative methods if one is just too hard as a beginner; an example would be a one armed burpee- I was just not ready for that and wish there was a secondary exercise. I’d also love to see more quick workouts if I’m crunched on time. Especially for abs and arms. ### 4/5 — I see it getting better! *2026-02-06, version 4.0.3* There are not a ton of workouts but I think with continued development I’d like to see more of a variety of workouts and modifications for those who cannot do certain workouts. I am using it now so will continue to see how I can use it. ### 3/5 — App needs a lot of work *2026-01-28, version 4.0.3* This app gets constant bugs. It pauses and closes out of my workouts weekly, and if I switch to another app during “rest” it will send me back to the beginning of it. It logged me out for days and I had to create a new account losing all of my previous data (your workouts go up levels). Now I’m being charged for 2 subscriptions to the same email. It’s a shame because the workouts themselves are exactly what I’m looking for. ### 3/5 — Pretty consistent app issues *2026-01-27, version 4.0.3* Great workouts. Love them. But pretty consistently I have app issues. Unable to access my workouts. Unable to access images or displays of the workout. Pretty frustrating. ### 2/5 — Really like app of it would work *2026-01-27, version 4.0.3* I got this app about a couple of weeks ago and it seems to have glitches. I love the workouts but My morning exercise was totally thrown off when my app stopped working mid workout. Followed the recommended steps to try to get my workout to open up and now it’s worse and I can’t get in the app at all to use it. Luckily I had a different workout app I was able to use, but it really wasted my time trying to get this one to work. I’m bummed because I would love to use the Burn app! The workouts are great but there’s no use paying for something that you can’t get to work . ### 5/5 — Burn baby burn! *2026-01-20, version 4.0.3* I’ve been following Cara for years & had to try out her workout app when she came out with it - I am absolutely loving it!! I’ve seen amazing progress in my workouts & my body. I recommend this program to anyone looking for a fun & spicy burn in the gym!! ### 5/5 — Discovering New Muscles *2026-01-06, version 4.0.3* The programs are designed so that you know exactly what you’re doing each day and no two workouts are the same - targeting these different muscles each workout is such a game changer! ### 4/5 — Fitness *2025-11-12, version 4.0.3* Great workouts! I’m feeling excited for my workouts. The only bad thing is you can’t go back to see what you’re going to need for the workout without losing your progress. Other than that it’s great! ### 5/5 — Changed my life *2025-09-16, version 4.0.2* I’ve been using Burn for almost a year now, and it has truly been the best fitness app for me. I’m currently pregnant with my fourth baby, and having Burn has made it so much easier to stay active and consistent through every season of life. The workouts are flexible, motivating, and easy to follow, and I love that I can adapt them to my energy levels. Burn has helped me stay committed to my health while balancing motherhood, and I couldn’t recommend it enough! ### 5/5 — Love *2025-09-16, version 4.0.2* I love this app! It is very easy to use. I love that there are so many different types of workouts depending on what you want to work on. When I do these workouts, I am so sore. I can definitely feel the burn!!! I would highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Best fitness App *2025-09-16, version 4.0.2* Cara Loren is unmatched in fitness! Her app helped me drop 10 lbs! She teaches consistency, loving your body and loving the gym! I’m so glad there’s an app that gives me step by step of what to do everyday so I don’t have to think about it. There’s so many plans to choose from and she makes it fun with seasonal fitness challenges to help with accountability! I recommend this app to everyone!!!! ### 5/5 — All the love for the Burn App! *2025-09-15, version 4.0.2* ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As a mom of 4, I love being able to work out from home with the Burn app. The workouts are challenging, fun, and I’m in the best shape of my life! ### 5/5 — Workouts *2025-09-15, version 4.0.2* I was so skeptical at first but honestly the workouts are short and effective 👏👏as a busy mom that’s what I needed!! I recommended this app to so many people! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I see it getting better! *2026-02-13, version 4.0.3* There are not a ton of workouts but I think with continued development I’d like to see more of a variety of workouts and modifications for those who cannot do certain workouts. I am using it now so will continue to see how I can use it. Never-mind about my higher review after I have been using it for a week. App doesn’t have a lot of workouts. Many other apps that provide alternatives and modifications. 25 dollars a month might as well go to a gym. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2026-01-27, version 4.0.3* I was able to do one workout which was great but the app has been nothing but a problem it won’t allow me to get passed the Home screen or access any other workouts after signing up. Unfortunate because it seems like it’d be a great app ### 1/5 — Horrible customer service *2026-01-21, version 4.0.3* They never responded to my inquiry to refund a subscription I had meant to cancel, due to their website being very difficult to find where to cancel. They said they’d respond and then ended up closing the chat and never did. And the workouts are so hard to use because it doesn’t show you how long the workout is estimated to be. This may be a small thing to some, but as someone who lives a busy schedule, I need to know. ### 1/5 — Freezes *2026-01-21, version 4.0.3* I have deleted and redownloaded this app several times and I can’t get it to log in without freezing. I’ve reached out to customer support without resolution. I paid for the year and haven’t been able to use it once. ### 1/5 — Good except bad execution *2026-01-17, version 4.0.3* Not any modifications, little workouts to choose and it’s starting at 24.99 a month? You stare at someone doing the same exercise with no voicing and guidance. Not worth the money. ### 1/5 — Unfortunately don’t recommend *2026-01-05, version 4.0.3* Unfortunately I don’t recommend. The app glitches constantly. And it is not a service issue. It will go completely white with only an x in the corner in the middle of a work out, so you have to close the app to get back in and loses all your progress. It doesn’t reset the program if you switch to another program. So it excepts you to start mid program. (I switched to pregnancy and then back to heavy hitter.) you can’t record exact weight you use. Overall it’s very frustrating. And it’s a bummer because I love following Cara. They also have refused to refund my account with all the issues. ### 1/5 — Horrible app and customer service. *2025-12-03, version 4.0.3* I bought this because of what looked like a good workout app with a variety of workouts and helpful tips. I emailed also because the day I bought the app, 2 hrs after purchase there was a big 20% sale and I was hoping for a price match. I have emailed 3x and haven’t gotten any help or response. I have tried 2 workouts already and the functionality and structure of the app is so clunky / not intuitive that it makes me not even want to use it. I want a refund and to halt all usage - YouTube workouts or Lia Bartha’s method is way better. ### 1/5 — Sooo many issues!! *2025-06-30, version 4.0.1* I wanted to like this app so much and tried it for several months, however the amount of issues with the app is insane! It doesn’t allow you to pass level 5 so your progress is halted, sometimes workouts will not log so you are forced to repeat the same workout at the same level, they offer different programs but several of them are the exact same, and recently the app will not even open for me. I have reached out to customer service multiple times and have never been given a solution to any of the issues. I have switched to a different workout app and it’s been a night and day difference. This app has potential but need a lot of help. ### 1/5 — Not worth the $ *2025-04-16, version 4.0.1* Been trying it for 6 weeks now. I wish I could get a refund. I actually hate the UX. I have no visibility into how far I am in the workout. If a machine is taken, you can’t skip sections easily and come back later. It has a limit on rep & weight so you’re not actually able to properly track. There should be an assessment that guides where the weights start. I can lift way more than 10 lbs so this isn’t helpful for me. OR it’ll be randomly waaay heavier than makes sense. It forces you to finish the program each week. So if I have to skip a day, and want to keep my day of the week schedule, I can’t. It’s very limiting, & I don’t feel pushed at all. I can’t believe I spent what I did in this app :/ If you’ve NEVER used weights before this may be good for you. And if your gym is often empty so you can jump around to every machine…. But if you’re anything beyond a 1st timer it’s not enough IMO ### 1/5 — Web vs App *2025-03-20, version 4.0.1* I purchased the quarterly subscription during the spring sale via the web. After downloading the app and logging in, the app keeps trying to charge me again. I’ve already paid, and I can’t even use my subscription. I’ve tried emailing the company, but I still haven’t heard back. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Just do it *2026-07-10, version 4.0.8* First time in my life I’ve ever been tone with results in every area. Just get and do it! Consistency with this program equals results and motivation to keep going. ### 5/5 — Best app ever! *2026-04-08, version 4.0.5* Thankful I finally pulled the trigger and joined! Makes it easy to follow and the progress tracker is so motivating. Coming off of two years with a personal trainer, I wish I had joined sooner. ### 5/5 — Found my new App *2026-03-29, version 4.0.5* Needed a new app for my fitness and health life. Busy mom as I am this app is perfect and has so many options to fit my schedule. I only had it for two days but tried 6 different quick workouts and I love it. Only need to buy heavier weights. It is so fun and addictive ❤️💪🏻 ### 5/5 — Review *2026-03-13, version 4.0.5* Perfect length workouts to do at home with kids! My kids even like to join in! ### 5/5 — My Favorite New Fitness App! *2026-03-11, version 4.0.5* This app has been such a refreshing change for me. I love the structure of the workouts, and I love the option to pick a short workout for when I just want to get something in. I feel a little stronger after every workout! ### 5/5 — Just say yes! *2026-03-05, version 4.0.4* These workouts are challenging but you are given ranges of participation. 2lbs of free weights vs. 10 and 2 reps vs. 10. I am a fitness professional and circus acrobat and recommend! ### 5/5 — Burn Love *2026-02-24, version 4.0.4* I’ve just finished my first week! The full body workouts have me crawling on the floor and I love that I’ve actually used my whole body! The only change I’d love to see is alternative methods if one is just too hard as a beginner; an example would be a one handed burpee- I was just not ready for that and wish there was a secondary exercise. I’d also love to see more quick workouts if I’m crunched on time. Especially for abs and arms! Overall- I’m loving! ### 5/5 — Love! *2026-02-16, version 4.0.4* I love this app and programming! As someone who has worked out for 20 years doing strength training, I always love to find things that allow me to challenge myself differently. The programming an app set up is easy to use and understand and has helped me find new places to make my body sore. I am a mom of three toddlers so there are times where I cannot complete the full workouts, but she does offer the quick workouts for the days that things are a little hectic. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Burn *2026-02-14, version 4.0.4* Overall I really like the workouts so far. It definitely challenges me and is making me set goals for myself! I didn’t realize how the program was set up until I started. What I mean by that is you select a program and do the six workouts and then you just continue to repeat the same workouts but the reps change and weight. Really my only complaint so far is the app itself, it is very glitchy at times and gets frozen. Hopefully they will fix this issue soon. ### 5/5 — Best App and Workouts *2026-02-02, version 4.0.3* I am a 40-year-old woman with 2 children. I have always been active and have worked out with weights for many years. I began to feel fluffy and didn’t have the toned look I felt I should have. Since working out using the Burn app, I have never felt more amazing in my life. This has changed everything for me. My mindset is far better than I could’ve ever imagined. I am looking toned and have been complimented more on my muscles than I ever have in years. I have used the toning program and absolutely love the two upper, two lower, two hiit days. This is exactly what I have been looking for and I love that the app levels up for you. Do not look any further. Cara has designed the best workout routine for you. Thank you, Cara and the Burn app. I am forever grateful. ❤️ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
