### 1/5 — Fail

*2018-07-26, version 8.3.1*

Won’t even let me sign up. Just gives a failure message.

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2016-03-09*

The app presents itself like s simple tool with a few poses to display but after downloading you can't access anything unless you purchase a monthly membership.

### 1/5 — The update that ruined it all.

*2015-11-03, version 8.1.1*

This is a great example of an app regressing rather than progressing. So many awesome perks just disappeared.

### 5/5 — Great workouts!

*2015-10-25, version 8.1.1*

I've been using this app for years and I'm excited for these new updates. Keep it up, Team Gain!

### 1/5 — New version

*2015-10-23, version 8.1*

The new version is horrible , miss the old one , used it everyday . Would pay to have old version back.

### 1/5 — Old version was better.

*2015-10-15, version 8.1*

I'm so frustrated. I've used this app for years and have loved it but not only is the recent update not near as good or easy to use but it has deleted all of the workouts I used to use. I'd even be happy to pay to get my old workouts back.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2015-10-14, version 8.1*

This is an awesome app! I have been doing yoga for a while, and I was nervous that this would be too easy, but I found the workouts challenging and similar to classes that I have taken. Love this app, and would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to save some money and do yoga at home! Add a heater to your room to really break a sweat!

### 5/5 — I adore this app!

*2015-09-26, version 7.4*

After the updates to another beloved GAIN app, I decided to let you guys know how much I love this app. It's intuitive, calming and great for self guided yoga plans. I have all the extension packs and I feel like it's really worth it. The app feels professional and I am happy with all the variations included. This is a superb app with no flaws in my book. Even the loading issue has been resolved.

### 4/5 — I freakin admire this app!

*2015-05-09, version 7.4*

Not kidding this workout made me sweat! Great way to shed a few extra pounds

### 1/5 — Not happy

*2015-02-13, version 7.4*

Crashed after the first three minutes then refuses to work not worth the time

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 8.3.1 — 2016-01-06

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

Bugs be gone!

### 8.1.1 — 2015-10-24

We're listening, and we love you.

We know that the new version of GAIN is missing some of the features you know & love, which is why we are working hard to bring them back, but better than ever.

Protocol Editing - you can now log weights and reps by touching 'Edit' in the top right hand corner. This will adjust the workout playback dynamically!

Favorites -  You can bookmark your favorite workouts for easy access at the top of list!  

Easier Preview -  You can now preview the workouts without downloading them!
We want to make sure we keep things clean and efficient, so stick with us (and keep working out!) while we continue to improve the GAIN app rapidly.

This release also features some design improvements, a few bug fixes, and speeds up workout loading.

As always, please send us your feedback.

Keep on keepin' on,
The GAIN Team

### 8.1 — 2015-10-07

BIG CHANGES IN VERSION 8.1!

We fully upgraded the workout experience, developed from over 2 years of extensive testing and iteration.

These bigger/faster/stronger apps will also include:
- A fresher audio-visual experience
- Major performance improvements (no more “loading” issues)
- Hand-crafted workouts from expert trainers (no more algorithms)
- More exercises for FREE (no more premium “expansion packs”)

These changes mark our renewed focus on the self-guided workout apps—they will benefit from increased attention and continuous improvement going forward.

HOLD THE PLANK, CHARLIE!
 
In order to streamline and simplify our apps, we removed some of the less popular features from our previous app versions. Namely, versions 8.1 will no longer offer:
- Algorithmic workout building
- Workout buddies
- Workout history (initially)
- GAIN Plan (we'll bring this back, but in a different way)

While it’s difficult to cut features, we are confident that this simplification will create a better app experience for GAIN users going forward.

NOTE: You may choose not to upgrade to this version in case you really want to maintain your existing workouts (and not get access to all the amazing, fresh, new workouts and content coming down the pipe). If you go this route, you will no longer be able to generate new workouts or plans, but you WILL be able to access all your existing workouts. It's. Your. Prerogative.

Keep on,

The GAIN Fitness Team
