No good for lefties :(
I was looking forward to using this app with my Pebble watch but it requires you to wear the watch on your left hand. Being left handed I wear my watch on my right hand, so this app's no good for lefties!
Hopefully they'll add support for right hand watch use but until then I can't use this app...

Oh So Close!!!
I agree with a previous review that the app is awesome, but lacks just that last push. When I saw this app had been released and downloaded it, I knew this was the end-all be-all for my workouts. Then I figured out that you are restricted to the 4-5 premade workouts. Most everthing else syncs with your account and I believe if you complete a premade workout, it too syncs. I wear a Pebble as my watch and would LOVE to be able to keep my phone in my pocket and use the Pebble for workout input and timing. Please,if at all possible, integrate the ability for custom workouts. I would even be thrilled to be able to create a workout online and just sync to the app. With that feature, all other workout apps are deleted and it would get a definite 5-star review from me.

Hmm...a few things.
Custom made workout plans do not transfer to the Pebble watch. They also seem to be very buggy on the iPhone. Some exercises show up as blank both on the Pebble watch and the iPhone. Also, when I tap repeat a workout the Fitocracy for Pebble app logs me out every single time. I tried to reset the phone, even to factory defaults. The original Fitocracy app for the iPhone work seamlessly.

Getting there!
The app tracks movements surprisingly well--usually correct but sometimes one or two reps off.
Some points:
1) I may be dense, but I had to keep my phone on while using the app. Not a big deal, but could drain battery.
2) There are only 5 workouts available now. For me to use this long term, there need to be more. I know the algorithm is very hard to develop, so I am hoping there are more coming as time passes.
All in all, a great start!

Good but needs custom workouts
The app does a great job of integrating the Pebble Watch (I used the new Pebble Time). It just needs the a good ability to add custom workouts. It's okay if you only have a limited number of exercises that are compatible with the Pebble but let us mess around with it. Keep up the good work.
