Great organization. Clear instructions and videos. Program tailors to my feedback. I am looking forward to my rehab days and a return to running. Paul D. **Developer response:** Thank you, Paul. This is amazing for us to read! All the best for your Meniscus rehab and your return to running. – Nina from the Exakt Health team ### 5/5 — Ultra-Convenient rehab that I can stick to! *2022-12-09* The hardest part of rehab is sticking to the plan and making those minor adjustments based on pain. This app makes the process so easy! Thrilled to have used this for 12 days now, getting stronger and on the path to full recovery. **Developer response:** Thank you for this amazing feedback. We are so happy our app is helping you to stick with the rehab exercises. All the best for your recovery! ### 5/5 — Great app easy to use *2022-11-30* The app. has many workout plans to rehab your injury. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was for my knee injury! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback! This sounds amazing! We wish you all the best for your rehab! ### 5/5 — Review *2022-11-19, version 1.9* I love this app! Simple, easy to follow and free :) ! Great job. ### 5/5 — amazing app! *2022-11-10* the physical therapy plans are so comprehensive and easy to follow and the video demonstrations are really helpful. Following along the plan has helped me to heal my Achilles issues. Love Exakt health! **Developer response:** That's amazing feedback for us, Kchanel3. Thank you :-) All the best for your Achilles! ### 5/5 — Knee Rebuild *2022-11-09* I hurt my knee about 2 months ago. My doctor verified it was a meniscus injury. I have been using this app for the last two weeks. I am noticing progress. I am also learning some other ways to work the joint. I will keep using this app because I think it’s helping me. My only critique, is the video for the Russian twist. In the demonstration the model only moves his arm ms and does not rotate his torso at all. The written description is correct. Besides that, this is a great tool to me. Thank you for making it available. **Developer response:** Thank you for this amazing feedback, Bromax. This sounds amazing and we are happy the plan helps you progress with your injury. All the best for your recovery! ### 5/5 — Super intuitive app *2022-11-01* Very intuitive and speedy onboarding experience and plan selection. Everything is well explained and seems thoroughly researched. **Developer response:** Hey Jonny! Thank you so much for your 5-star review and the feedback. We wish you the best for your rehab! ### 5/5 — Effective exercises for my runner’s knee *2022-10-28* I have been searching a lot what to do for getting rid of pain in my knee. After 9 months of frequent pain, it finally started getting better after 1 week of training with this app. **Developer response:** Sounds amazing, Jack! Thank you for this feedback. This is an additional booster for us to continue on our path. All the best with your knee, we hope you will be pain-free soon. - nina ### 5/5 — Well structured series for meniscus injury *2022-10-28* The instructions and visuals for each exercise are well done. It’s a helpful series of levels. Having the daily calendar really is helping me keep track of my progress. I’m still on level one but I feel improvement. I like that you can provide feedback that guides the difficulty of exercises. The app did freeze on me once. I don’t know if it was my phone, user error, or the app itself. I restarted my phone and have had no trouble since. I’m likely to recommend this app to others. My only concern is that I’m an older adult who no longer is as active ( it’s been a long long time since I was running); therefore, there’s a mix of exercises that are easy and a bit harder in each section. I’m sure if I was a more active individual, there might be more consistency for my needs. It’s not a deterrent for me, I will adjust as needed. I have been through 2 series of physical therapy for other injuries so I feel this app is a good addition or alternative as it’s so hard to get timely appointments. Overall, I see this as a very helpful and well structured app that has validity and well researched information. I highly recommend it. **Developer response:** Dear Elle, Thank you for the detailed review and feedback. We will take it into account and make the workouts even more customisable so it can be adjusted exactly to your needs. If you have any problem of freezing in the future, please reach out to us at service@exakthealth.com and we will look into it. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Best, Philip ### 5/5 — Excellent content! *2022-09-30* As a run coach and runner, this is a great tool to have! I use it for myself and my athletes! It’s easy to use, easy to follow along and nothing is overly complicated! **Developer response:** Thank you your feedback. It's great to hear that the App works so well for you. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Would like to cancel *2024-10-19, version 1.24.1* I would like to cancel , the work outs are not working for me. The counting is off in later work outs and it’s annoying. ### 3/5 — Too many issues *2025-08-10* I really wanted to like this app. The programming is excellent but when logging a workout in the app it’s turns my music down without being able to fix so I have yo do the workout and log after. My biggest complaint right now is I paid for the $20 upgrade for the month and have been unable to get into the app the past 3-4 days. As soon as I attempt to open the app it force quits despite attempting various troubleshooting methods. If this happened for just a day or two it would be no big deal but now going on four days is ridiculous! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your detailed feedback and sorry for the delay in replying. 🙏 We’re very sorry about the crash issues you’ve experienced — that should of course not happen. Please reach out via our support form https://www.exakthealth.com/en/contact Regarding the music volume: when you start a workout in the app, the system lowers other audio. You can switch off workout sounds in the workout settings and then adjust your phone volume to enjoy your music at normal level. Just keep in mind to lower the volume again once the workout ends, as it will jump back up. We appreciate your patience and hope you can get back to training with Exakt soon! ### 4/5 — Almost perfect. *2024-11-25, version 2.0.2* This app really is life-changing. It has nearly cured my gluteal tendinopathy in two months, well worth the subscription fee. However, I have a suggestion that would make it better: I am doing the exercises at home, where I don’t have room to store a stability ball, or anywhere to attach a band for the pallof press. It would be nice to be able to swap out an exercise for something I can actually do. I try to adapt but I will have to just do some sort of plank today since I don’t have a ball for ball curls. Frustrating, but at least I’m at a stage where my injury is much better and I feel confident about swapping my exercises if need be. Edited to add: I’m at the return-to-running stage, and there is a warm up exercise section, followed by the walking/running, and then a cool down exercise section, but the workout ends after the walking/running and doesn’t allow me to see the cool down exercises. So that’s a bug. ### 4/5 — Almost perfect. *2024-11-14* This app really is life-changing. It has nearly cured my gluteal tendinopathy in two months, well worth the subscription fee.

We’re thrilled the app has been life-changing and helped improve your Gluteal Tendinopathy. Your suggestion to swap exercises when equipment isn’t available is great, and we’ll share it with our team. Wishing you continued success in your recovery! ### 4/5 — Great App but room for Improvement *2023-11-02* I’m back running and feel great. The only issue I have is that the back-to-running warmup and cooldown is not guided anymore like in the rest of the app. It’s there so why not allow me to use it. **Developer response:** Hi Andy. Thank you for your feedback. We'll forward the feedback to our developers. Happy injury-free running. ### 4/5 — Rehab Medial Meniscus Tear *2023-10-30* This app and lots of patience have me feeling hopeful. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Easy to follow and really a no brainer for me. **Developer response:** We are very happy and grateful to hear this. Thank you for leaving your review and letting us know how you are doing. All the best for the rest of the rehab! ### 5/5 — Back pain *2026-01-03* I’ve always had this old running injury with my left back, and I’m postpartum now. My second pregnancy definitely worsened my back pain towards the third trimester. It was bothering me so much lately. I remembered doing the exakt app prior to pregnancy and it did help my back pain. So today I reopened the app, and tried the back mobility exercises and my back pain seriously improved, almost gone. I’m really impressed! I guess I really have to stretch nowadays in my late 30s. ### 5/5 — Love this App *2025-10-07* This is an excellent app. Very clear instructions. I’ve been on the program for five weeks and what a difference. I’d love for the developers to branch out into other areas of the body - shoulders, elbows etc **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind feedback! 🙏 We’re thrilled to hear the program has made such a difference for you. It’s great to know you’d like to see more areas covered — we really appreciate the suggestion and wish you continued success with your training! ### 5/5 — Hands down the best rehab *2024-05-04, version 1.21.2* I’m not a runner One day I decided to run faster on the treadmill and do plyometrics with lots of jumping. After a week of exercises, i developed right glute pain that prevented me from doing normal activities such as walking or just sitting. The doctors said it’s a radiated pain from the muscle spasms in my back and gave me stretches that just sent me in flames! It was just overwhelming to be in pain and to add to the pain. Until one day i stumbled upon the app from a youtube video. The app explains the root cause of gluteal tendinopathy , the symptoms, what not to do, the first exercises to just settle the pain and so much more that 10 sessions at a normal PT failed to explain or achieve. My body feels stronger, even though i haven’t reached the final stages of rehab. I’m recommending the app to all my friends (even though they are not runners), just to strengthen their bodies and see differences within few weeks. A normal PT session is 190 USD/20 minutes, while i paid 40 USD for 3 months for the app. I’m grateful that i came across the app and wish it has more rehab and prehab exercises for other sports injuries. Keep up the great work 🤍 ### 5/5 — Awesome Results *2023-07-06* Pain is a great motivator. And it was foot pain, like I had never experienced before, that started me on my journey to search for relief and answers. As a result of following the guidance received from this app, I have completely healed from plantar faciatis and Achilles tendinitis! Using the app freed me from having to travel to see a therapist in person. I was also free to do the exercises on my schedule. **Developer response:** Dear Sara. Thank you for this review and for taking the time and giving us feedback. It's so good to hear that you are completely recovered. User reviews like yours are what keeps us going. Wishing you all the best, sabrina from the exakt health team ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best app for runners *2023-05-16* Couldn’t recommend more for runners looking to stay injury free! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review & the 5-star rating! ### 5/5 — Happy rehabbing! *2023-05-04* I am so happy that I found this app. I ran a marathon on a slightly strained calf and ended up with a super strained calf. My progress was slow at first but has steadily improved. I am recommending this app to all of my running friends! A couple of pieces of feedback: 1. I wish that I could rearrange the workouts within a week with a bit more flexibility. For example, if I know I’ll be pressed for time so I want to do a fundamental workout one day early, but skip one of the optional workouts. I cannot access the future workout until that day arrives. 2. I wish that I could go back and edit my response to the question about whether the workout increased my injury symptoms within 24 hours. I usually mark it right after finishing the workout but then the next day if I feel discomfort I wish that was editable. Overall this app has been a true lifesaver during this time as it has provided me with hope that I will get back to running again and a sense of accomplishment in all the baby steps along the way. Super appreciate the detailed written instructions and video for each exercise. Thank you!!!! **Developer response:** Thank your for this wonderful review, and for taking the time and giving us feedback. We are constantly working on improving the app and will definitely take your points into consideration for the upcoming releases. We are happy to hear your calf strain is improving and wish you a fast and good recovery :-) ### 5/5 — Easy *2023-04-06* Enjoying so far **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. We're happy you're enjoying our app. ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2023-03-10* I strained my calf in October and was lost on how to rehab it. I tried on my own for a couple weeks and didn't feel like I made any progress. I found Exakt by searching for rehab solutions. I just finished the calf strain program and I'm now back to running at full strength/speed. I recommend Exakt to anyone that needs guidance for rehabbing injuries. I used it while it was free but it would absolutely be worth the cost! **Developer response:** Thank you for this amazing review! We're so happy to hear you are back to running after finishing the calf strain rehab plan. This is exactly why we started the company and fuels us to keep going. Stay safe and have a wonderful running season this year :-) ### 5/5 — Nice little free app *2023-02-20, version 1.11.4* I think it is tastefully done. So much good for free. ### 5/5 — Patella tendinitis *2023-02-05* I have been doing the physio exercises only 3 days and notice a difference already . I have had sharp shooting tendon pain from my kneecap , occasionally down the front of my shinbone and upper foot , for about 2 months causing weakness in one leg . Caused by a vigorous exercise routine, which I had to completely stop . **Developer response:** Hey! Super happy to read that you can already feel a difference after such a short amount of time. We wish you the best for the rest of your rehab & a safe return to running.
