Very well-developed app and easy to use!

Response from developer

Thank you - genuinely glad it stays out of your way. Easy to use took the longest; the early builds had far more switches than they needed. If you ever hit something that isn't obvious, there's a Help & support link in Settings and it comes to me.

Great App

Great way to stay accountable!

Response from developer

Thanks for this. Accountability that doesn't tip into nagging is the part I keep tuning, so if it ever pushes too hard or not hard enough, tell me through Help & support in Settings and I'll look at it.

GETS ME MOVING AND FUN!

push ups and sit ups are fun way to unlock apps! quiz mode is rest too!
