Able to see the demo workouts perform them on my own. I only have one feedback, when I timer is running, the screen gets locked. It defeats the purpose of being able to track the time during the workout. The cherry on top would be, if the timer could be adjusted as per the workout, especially for the tabata style workouts where the time can be reset every 4mins etc., that would be AWESOME! ### 5/5 — Love the programming! *2025-05-05, version 2.10.15* Been following for years, best shape of my life because of this program. Highly recommend!! ### 5/5 — Great app & Programing! *2025-05-01, version 2.10.15* I’ve been following CompTrain for years and you can tell that they’re always working on improving both the workouts and the app experience. Never stagnant, always challenging, and that’s exactly what I’m looking for. Keep it coming, CT! ### 5/5 — Incredibly Effective *2025-05-01, version 2.10.15* The programming and training methodology is incredibly intentional. I’m someone who is trying to say fit and not concerned with the “sport” of fitness and this is the perfect fit for me. Love the programming, love the app, can’t say enough nice things about it. ### 5/5 — Commitment to excellence! *2025-05-01, version 2.10.15* I don’t follow Comptrain because they offer the best programming I’ve ever done before (though they are also that) I follow their programming because of the philosophy that Ben, Cole and team bring to fitness. We train to get better at life, to build good habits that can be maintained, so that I can play with my kids at all ages. Even when they get it wrong (this app rollout was painful at times) they stay at it until they get it right, and communicate with us the community every step of the way. That’s why I do comptrain, I trust the process and it has kept me fit and injury free now into my 40’s and hopefully beyond! ### 5/5 — Clean + feels like a coach in your pocket *2025-05-01, version 2.10.15* I’m biased but I love this app. It’s aesthetically pleasing to look at, and it kinda makes it feel like you have a community but get to train on your schedule ### 5/5 — Good programming, the app is improving *2025-04-30, version 2.10.15* I’ve been following Comptrain for years, I really like the programming for general fitness, strength, and conditioning. It is a balanced approach and doesn’t beat you up like some other big name programs. The transition to the new app was rough, but it has steadily been improving and is now a good experience. ### 5/5 — Best CrossFit/ Fitness app *2025-04-29, version 2.10.15* I have used so many different training apps. From Hypertrophy, to CrossFit programmes. This is the best I have come across by far. Having Ben Bergeron and Cole Sager programming and working you through it with videos is brilliant and makes it so easy to follow. I’m totally bought into their methodology of becoming the most optimal version of yourself, strong, fit, flexible and healthy. My Whoop data has increased since joining, which I’m putting down to the general fitness increase and VO2 max work. As well as doing strength work, hypertrophy and Olympic lifts. Overall, and I’ve used a lot, this is the best platform, with the best coaches. Give it a go. ### 5/5 — Novice to Elite Athletes *2025-04-28, version 2.10.15* If you’ve never worked out before, or have no idea where to start your new journey of lifelong fitness, or are an expert/experienced athlete. This programming is absolutely top notch and you’ll be hard to find better. You will see the results you were hoping for and more. You just have to buy in and show up, Everyday! Great community to be apart of with constant updates and feedback! ### 5/5 — Great app! Efficient! *2025-04-28, version 2.10.15* The app stands out with its clean and simple design. Every monday, a short video outlines the macro focus for the week, helping you understand the bigger picture behind the training. Each day, quick videos break down the movements for the WOD, so you can start your workout immediately. For those who want more informations, the app offers detailed explanations of each WOD’s intent, strategies, and scaling options. You can choose also how many time you have to train, so it adapts to you. Simple and complete at the same time. Great app! ### 5/5 — Best online training platform for forever athletes *2025-04-28, version 2.10.15* Provides well rounded training for its own sake; with the goal of providing a fitness that will allow playing with your grandkids to supporting a sporting life. Awesome ### 5/5 — Great App and Excellent Programming *2025-04-28, version 2.10.15* I’ve been using this app and the CompTrain programming for several months now and it has changed my life. The app is very user-friendly and they are constantly making improvements based on user-feedback. They are also very accessible and spend a lot of time reaching out to their users for feedback. ### 5/5 — Fitness Redefined *2025-04-28, version 2.10.15* Incredible app but more improved access to world class training that is unlike no other ### 5/5 — Excellence *2025-04-28, version 2.10.15* I’ve tried many, and CompTrain is excellence in delivering what matters. A first class complete training program from some of the best in the business. This isn’t for someone that wants spaghetti against the wall, CT is a structured, smart program with the perfect amount of challenge and fun to keep each day interesting! ### 5/5 — Great updates! *2025-04-28, version 2.10.15* The new updates to the app make navigating and viewing the workouts super easy! The leaderboard is quick to access and return to training ### 5/5 — Top notch *2025-04-28, version 2.10.15* Long term user of the app and the programming. The program is top notch. Solid and well structured with great suggestions and subs for each workout. There have been hiccups in the app in the past but those have been cleaned up and it works well. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Brutal App / Experience *2026-07-15, version 2.10.43* Subscribed to Pro but nothing was unlocked despite showing an active subscription. Deleted / re-installed the app. Tried restoring purchases. Logged in / out of app and restarted my phone. Nothing has worked and I remain stuck at “Subscribe to Unlock All Features” in the app itself. In app support is broken. It took four separate attempts for a submission to work and am still waiting for any sort of meaningful response. As it stands now, I’m out my subscription fee and have no programming. Terrible experience and a refund would be appropriate. ### 1/5 — Subscribed to Pro, App never unlocked pro *2025-12-20, version 2.10.36* App just remains at the “subscribe page” ### 1/5 — The app doesn’t work ! *2025-09-22, version 2.10.29* The app doesn’t work and when you email for support , nobody replies back . End of CompTrain I guess , I need to find a new CrossFit app! ### 1/5 — Forced to pay *2025-08-17* No free version anymore - without paying money, no access to the app anymore. Deleted ### 1/5 — Horrible App *2025-04-25, version 2.10.15* I agree with the other review entitled “Horrible App”. Too many glitches with no support. I’ve stopped using it. Too frustrating. ### 1/5 — App keeps getting worse and worse *2025-02-21, version 2.10.11* They’ve put content that was and SHOULD BE free behind a pay wall now. Unless you wanna spend a bunch of money the app is basically worthless now. ### 1/5 — Recent Update is Frustrating *2025-01-31, version 2.10.7* The recent update put previously free info behind a subscription tier. I don’t need most of the features in the new Basic tier and it’s certainly not worth buying to see coaches notes on the free WOD. It’s frustrating that I can’t access these anymore. The coaches notes for the free WOD should be available to the free tier while notes for the Basic and Pro tiers can be reserved for the workouts those tiers unlock. ### 1/5 — Can’t sign in or see anything *2024-11-17, version 2.10.4* The app no longer lets me sign in (no issues with password or username or anything something literally just doesn’t compute). Have had this issue for months. Have tried deleting and redownloading etc. and when I go online on my computer it says I need the app to see the workouts so this literally has been useless and I can’t do anything with it which is sad because I like the programming and business ### 1/5 — Glitches everywhere *2024-10-19, version 2.10.3* So sick of this app glitching. Great programming that 1/4 of the time I can’t even use and it takes days to resolve issues. Ridiculous app for daily workouts. But again great programming. Gonna need to move back to the legacy app for the 3rd time now ### 1/5 — Good programming but a bad app *2024-06-12* The app still has too many issues and there has been little improvement since the release. It acts like I have paid, doesn’t save my work out history, doesn’t consistently calculate my percentages. I have really benefited from the programming over the years but the new app has damaged the experience. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — App is down (Sunday Jan 18 26) *2026-01-18, version 2.10.38* Just goes to the splash screen and says something went wrong. ### 5/5 — Best training app ever to get fit *2025-12-03, version 2.10.34* Great app! Love the direction and the training. ### 5/5 — Great Workouts and App! *2025-11-05, version 2.10.33* Convinced I was from 2018 that CompTrain had something special going on. What I continually find is they tailor the workouts to be very effective no matter the amount of time you have (30 minutes - 2 Hours). They provide demonstrations of each movement, coaching tips, warmups, and equally effective substitutions. If you tried CT before and didn’t like the app, check it out again! Cole and Crew do an excellent job of updating and improving based on feedback. I highly recommend their programming. ### 5/5 — Very good App *2025-08-29* Good Trainingsplan and the App it’s very easy to use ### 5/5 — Using this programming for years! *2025-08-20, version 2.10.27* I’ve been using the app for years now and it’s been amazing. As of late the programming has been even better and my strength is going through the roof! You also get to hang out and talk to Cole, a humble amazing dude and the other CompTrain community members! Love my garage gym life with this app!! 💪 ### 5/5 — Excellent training & app *2025-07-30, version 2.10.25* Coming from a CrossFit background, I was looking for balanced training that is not only effective, but is fun, engaging and intended for the long game. Cole and his team have built an excellent and effective program. The app is top notch with video demos, intended stimulus for each piece and precise movement swaps if needed. Athlete for life! ### 5/5 — Comptrain! *2025-06-28, version 2.10.20* Great program and coaches! Very accessible and always improving. Have hit some lifetime strength numbers! Have been doing this 5+ years ### 5/5 — Top Tier *2025-05-23, version 2.10.17* Obviously the highest level of programming and coaching. The app is unique and very user friendly. No one else has anything like it. ### 5/5 — Truely Fitness at your Fingertips *2025-05-09, version 2.10.15* I really appreciate the attention to detail and how thorough the workouts and explanations are for each element. ### 5/5 — Love this Community *2025-05-06, version 2.10.15* App works great! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
