Deleted data

I had used this app for several years because it’s simple and lightweight. However, it frequently has bugs after updates and recently I permanently lost all of my workout data after a failed update when I had to reinstall the app.

Great app but stop breaking it!!!

I loved the app so much from my initial download years ago that it’s one of the few apps I made a full purchase on. But holy hell man quit updating it with BS and changing the styling.
You took it away from me from being able to just easily record my current workout to then having to go through an options menu for “quick go” and not choosing a premade workout. You keep changing the styling and I have to learn the app again. Then it’s changed and stuff breaks so I have to deal with it til it’s fixed but by then another dumb update comes by.

People like it. They’ve downloaded it. They’ve paid for it. This doesn’t mean keep changing it- they’ve paid for how it was not for you to keep bloating it with bs!!

Response from developer

Hey, Thank you for using FitNotes! Please reach out to us at support@fitnotes.info so that we can restore/fix whatever is broken. The intent was not to remove any existing features. Cheers, FitNotes Team

I usually never rate apps

But this one deserves it, it’s amazing down to the Dev team, a bunch of fitness apps nowadays come with their own workout tracking, but none do it like Fitnotes. I will say when I show someone the app for the first time it’s a little tricky for them to get down all the notches and little things you can do with the app, funny enough it has so many little gadgets there is a learning curve with this app, but once you understand the potential there is no other fitness tracker app. I recommend pairing this one with cronometer for max results in your fitness journey. God Bless.

Simple and easy

Good app

Workout Import?

Hey Devs

Just wondering when we will be able to import workouts using CSV?

Requires subscription

Just warning that it now requires pro subscription to log workouts. It used to be free

The only workout tracker you’ll need

Get this app and purchase the pro version for life. This app is no frills everything you need to track your workouts. Add links from YouTube to exercises, rate your exertion, plan your future workouts, customize workouts while working out, if an exercise is missing, add it. This has replaced years of notebooks and I couldn’t be happier. I used to always forget my notebook, but rarely my phone. Now I always have my workout. I even programmed my physical therapy to keep me on track. I love this app. Plus the customer service is awesome. As I use the app I have made suggestions and they always respond quickly. Often the feature gets added in a few weeks. I couldn’t ask for more.

Best Workout Tracker I Have Ever Used

I have been training since 2018, and I recognized early on the importance of tracking my workouts. I cycled through so many apps and methods for tracking my progress but no approach had all of the features I wanted. FitNotes is the only app I’ve found that has a user interface I like, very customizable, convenient to use, and gives you in-app options to analyze your data in different ways. I have been a pro member for several years now and it was the best purchase I have never made. I highly recommend this app to gym professionals and newbies alike. If you’ve been looking for a highly capable yet simple and straightforward option to track your progress, your search is over.

Thank you for the review! Many more features to come. Cheers, FitNotes Team

Best I’ve ever used

This is the best weight lifting tracking app I’ve ever used. I cannot believe this is a free app. It does exactly what you need and nothing more. A beautiful product. No distractions and it just works.

Not working

Was great and was happy to pay for it. Now it’s not working. When u click complete on a set: it deletes the set. There’s a workaround where u just finish the workout the u can move on but looking forward to an update! Then will change

Calisthenics buddy

Easy and Neat ! As perfect for someone hitting the gym OR Calisthenics. Already having lots of exercices presaved and the possibility to create personalized ones and add them to programs created by yourself !
Go for it !

Hard to use

Sometimes it doesn’t let me delete things and it keeps adding random things without my knowledge or without me doing anything. And then since deleting things are so hard, it doesn’t let me delete what it added even if I don’t need it.

So difficult to use

Downloaded this and just can’t work out how to use it. Faffing around wondering what a template is v the other workout option I now can’t remember the name of. Took forever to figure out how to add an exercise after I had eventually managed to create a workout. Search is useless (type ‘bicep’ into the search bar and apparently there are no exercises! There are, but you have to scroll through everything to find them. Can’t be bothered. Deleting. Please consider adding a quick ‘tour’ and improve the search

Perfect simple exercise log

Simple and no non sense app for logging your workouts

Know the app to use the app

Basically you have to know how the app functions internally to figure out how to use it initially. It doesn’t make sense, not functional for new users, and complicated to understand/figure out.

New interface is terrible

This used to be such a great app. Simple. Straightforward. Easy to navigate, create workouts, and use. This new interface is terrible! Haaaate how the workout pops up so you see the dashboard homepage whatever in the background. The way sets appear now is different too, and not in a good way. Not sure why they had to change something that wasn’t broken. Deleting the app now.

Overcomplicated

Literally just trying to add a work out. Seems impossible. There’s only 2 work outs and can’t seem to just add a work out?? Way too complicated for something so simple.

Straightforward and great

Effective simple and reasonably intuitive, also a $5 once off if you want all the extra features which is very preferable to all the $40 a year subscriptions of the other big workout apps

How an app is supposed to be

Not only the best tracking app I’ve used, but one of the best apps I have. Simple, functional, and great UI. Happy to pay for it.

Free features became paid

Any time an app I have been using changes its policy to render free features paid, it’s game over for me. You can never trust them not to keep that scale sliding. Time to delete. I actually liked it a lot before this.
