## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Will not unlock

*2023-06-25*

Waste of time will not unlock the tough exercises, even after paying deleted and ripped off thanks.

### 1/5 — Great app for muscle ups but…

*2022-12-31*

Useful with various ring exercises and fun progressions. Restore purchase does not work. Paid once app got deleted then I was asked to pay again.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy

*2020-05-31, version 1.2*

I paid for all levels but it won’t unlock the levels I have paid for. Can’t find contact to get help either, all pages are down. Scam or obsolete now. Don’t buy

### 1/5 — Great app, can’t update since purchased the full version

*2020-03-03*

I love the simplicity of this, well paced regressions etc. I bought the full version but the restore button isn’t working. Help!

### 1/5 — In app purchase don’t work - yet you are charged for them

*2019-06-20*

Will update to 5 stars once it gets sorted. Payment processed but it won’t unlock. Please fix as soon as possible ! App looks great otherwise. iPhone XS

### 1/5 — Does not unlock after purchase - do not buy !!!!

*2019-03-12*

I purchased this app with the understanding that there would be some locked exercises, after paying it still remains locked.

### 1/5 — Where’s my Access?

*2018-10-14*

Paid for full access....still waiting for it, tried repeatedly to get the tougher workouts, still no go....

### 1/5 — Useless

*2018-04-22*

Taken money hasn’t restored, useless!

### 2/5 — This is a Muscle Up only app

*2018-12-29*

Ok as far as it goes but it’s not an app using a wide range of exercises and general training as it’s App Store title suggests. The app title changes on install to Muscle Up and that’s it’s sole focus. Of the 4 programs designed to get you performing a Muscle Ups only the first 2 are free. And all the programs assume you have rings and don’t provide an alternative. 

There’s also a weird treatment to the video demos where they’re tried to put a glow around the person and it makes the whole image hazy like it’s a dream. Really odd choice because it adds noting to the understanding and just detracts.

### 2/5 — Can’t go to next level?

*2018-12-26*

I did first superset sequence. How many workout sessions under “tough” am I supposed to do before it lets be do “Tougher”? 

  Paid to go to next level- Toughest. It doesn’t let me?

### 5/5 — Nicely does it

*2022-01-02*

First time on it today, wow so much more than I first thought. Great focus on areas and I am now knackered!

### 5/5 — Everything you need to no to learn muscle up

*2020-05-16*

If you really want to learn MuscleUp. After getting started and moving to advance the $5.00 really is a thank you. A Trainer would have gotten 100 of dollars to teach you this. Thank you

### 5/5 — Great work out tool fo 5 bucks

*2020-04-14*

You can always find junk for free.
But inexpensive workout apps are hard to find. 
For the price of coffee, you can have a great app that demonstrates the workout and gives you realistic goals to strive for during your workout.

Don’t just take my word for it, try it out!

### 5/5 — Very intuitive user interface and I can see how the programs can lead me to do a proper muscle up

*2018-10-03, version 1.2*

I just finished the free tough session and wow it’s great. Can’t wait to do it again and unlock a variant of it on the same tough level to prevent boredom

### 5/5 — sick

*2017-07-10*

i have just started using the app, and i haven't got my first muscle up yet, but it's a great app, good workouts, easy to use interface, they have all the different moves/exercises in a handy list that has explanations of them

**Developer response:** How's your muscle up coming along?

### 5/5 — Great app! I can do muscle ups!

*2017-05-02*

Helps me workout in the park with my rings, i can now do a muscle up! Really worth purchasing the extra workouts 💪💪💪

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2017-03-29*

Tried it and liked it. It does what it says in the tin.

### 4/5 — Simple style, very effective

*2020-03-05*

Updated review: I’ve used this app for 7 workouts now. 

I had a problem with the in-app purchase, but got it sorted out. 

The embedded videos make it very clear what each exercise entails. Working through the Tough superset is straightforward. I like the superset format. 

Getting started in the app it took me a minute to figure out how it worked. The problems I encountered were related to the purchase. Now that it’s cleared up, the app is great. 

One small area for improvement: If you listen to music while using the app, every time you click on one of the exercise demonstrations, it pauses your music. You must then reopen the music app and push play unless you have an external play button. If this could be fixed, the app would be perfect.

### 4/5 — Unlock harder levels

*2018-05-17, version 1.2*

Love the app. Have paid for all levels but can’t open anything further than the first level on “tougher”.

### 3/5 — 42 And still going STRONG!

*2018-09-16*

Just started my callisthenics journey. Watch this space... muscle from Brussels!🤗🧔💪🏼
