### 5/5 — Fantastic Training Tool

*2026-02-25*

Perfect for building that BJJ foundation. Perfect for setting up game plan for comp too. Can’t recommend enough! 👍🏻

**Developer response:** Love to hear that!

### 5/5 — Frank088

*2026-02-17*

By far the best free bjj app on the app store. I use it every day!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback!

### 5/5 — Best app I’ve used

*2026-01-30*

I’ve never written reviews ever since I’ve gotten a phone, but this is the best app I’ve ever used, I can’t imagine how much worse I’d be without it

### 5/5 — Awesome training tool

*2026-01-26*

I had a knee injury recently and I cannot practice Bjj for several months. This app allows me to take notes and work out strategies while I am out, keeping me in the game. Two things I would like to see in the future is a computer port of this app, as there are times where it would be more useful on desktop. The other thing I would like to see is an overhaul of the technique webfeature with directional arrows, custom positions, a larger web and nodes that you can move around. The web gets very crowded at 100 nodes, and I have heard stories of high level practitioners making a flow chart this large for 1 position. 
Great app tho, prolly most eco friendly of these, as the AI use is fully optional

**Developer response:** That's some awesome feedback Andrew. Glad to hear FlowRoll's keeping you busy when injured! 
A desktop version will be developed at some point over the coming months for sure.
The technique web will also get an overhaul. I will be building a flowchart / system creator very soon that I'm sure you will love. Thanks for the support!

### 5/5 — Should Be Able to Add Infinite Moves

*2025-12-19*

When people go to the menu, it has a pro feature you can buy. Although, for free users, you can only add limited moves. I think that people should be able to add unlimited moves, and pro people should be in a group with other pro people and jiu jitsu trainers to help with any questions. I think they should be able to have groups or a online section where you can chat with others or make groups. Maybe a “Locals” section to talk with. They should also add a friends list if they do that. Overall, they should fix things and help the free users, and give a MASSIVE (lowww taper fadeee) update. I rated it 5 stars because this is one of the best apps for bjj in the app store, and I always forget my moves which makes this app so amazing. I know you probably won’t read this whole thing, but it is amazing.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review!

### 5/5 — amazing

*2025-12-16*

cant believe its free super helpful

### 5/5 — Almost perfect, it just needs one tweak

*2025-12-14*

This is definitely a 5 star app… however, I’d love to see one small change. You can adjust the date and duration of your class, but not when it starts. It’d be awesome to set the start time so you can track if you trained in the morning, afternoon, or evening.

Other than that, Flow Roll is an amazing app. Super clean, easy to use, and perfect for keeping track of my training sessions. Just hoping they add that little feature in a future update.

Edit: As of December 14, 2025.
I’m blown away, the update is incredible. 5 STARS.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback Jay! We will be implementing this feature very soon.

### 5/5 — Great app but…

*2025-12-06*

For some reason when I try to subscribe, there is no option on the button. Only can review my subscription (which I don’t have). Would be cool to be able to subscribe and write down more than 25 techniques :). Maybe the app needs a few more tweaks like “modify belt” with the stripes etccc, and  have a “what to improve” tab in session, so then the app gives you personalised tips on where to progress. Could be nice. Anyways, let me pay you guys :)

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review Knox.. could you please reach out to our support email flowroll999@gmail.com and we will resolve this for you asap!

### 5/5 — Grappler788

*2025-12-05*

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback!

### 5/5 — Hs

*2025-12-01*

Evey good

**Developer response:** Great to hear!

### 5/5 — Good app

*2025-11-30*

Really strong app and helpful I am happy I bought a lifetime subscription

**Developer response:** Thanks for the support! Lots more to come for pro users soon🤙

### 5/5 — Incroyable

*2025-11-04*

Il manquerait juste plein de tutos pour mieux savoir utiliser l’appli et ça serai parfait !

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2025-11-01*

This app is all around great, I needed this to remember techniques and it has helped a lot! The customer service is also amazing and I'm so happy I found this app

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback!

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2026-08-11*

It is not free. “Free Trial…”

**Developer response:** It is free!

### 1/5 — Continual freezing

*2026-07-14*

On opening, the app does not respond to any button selection

**Developer response:** Hi, can you please reach out to our support and help us resolve this issue: david@flowrollapp.com  Thanks!

### 1/5 — Lack of content

*2026-01-04*

There is a small library of content.  Several popular guard styles, submissions, and sweeps are not even available.

**Developer response:** We are working on our content library. You can add your own custom techniques when you find that one is missing. Thanks for the feedback!

### 4/5 — Good … but….

*2026-08-13*

I like it other than the fact I just spent money on the pro version and they won’t upgrade me to the pro version , tried deleting and everything

**Developer response:** Can you please reach out to our support we will fix this for you ASAP

### 4/5 — Good app

*2026-01-22*

Good app, only thing not giving it 5 stars is a submission counter on how many times your submitted as well as who you submit

**Developer response:** Great idea I will add this asap. A 'tap' counter. Thanks man glad you're enjoying it.

### 4/5 — Great App

*2025-12-13*

Been doing BJJ for a few months. Struggling to remember what I need to do!!! This app is great for recording sessions and finding teaching modules that you can learn at own pace then try out on the mat

### 4/5 — Add belt and stripe

*2025-11-29*

Very good app but it should allow us the user to input our belt and stripes into it instead of assigning a belt based on app usage.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! If you go to your profile page you should be able to update your belt and stripe if you press edit profile.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect, it just needs one tweak

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-08-20*

Pretty good app to record your rolls. Helps me look back and see what I can improve on.

### 5/5 — Make more apps for different sports!

*2026-08-19*

I love this app a lot, and honestly, I feel I could learn more from this app than from actually going to practice for an hour. Because anything I wanna learn, I just search for it and it pulls up short, easy YouTube tutorials that are super high viewed and top rated. But I wish they had an app like this for other sports because I also do a bit of soccer, and I would like if they had an app like this to teach you how to do skills in soccer, like a finesse shot, a curling shot, a power shot, or just stuff like that.

### 5/5 — Best BJJ Training App

*2026-08-04*

I’ve been using FlowRoll for 8 months now and it is by far my favourite app for tracking and improving my training in BJJ. It’s helped me recognize my strong and weak points which has helped improve my gameplan for competing. 

The free version of the app has many features and is very easy to use. I really enjoy the new update where you can see the members at your gym and share your training with them. 

I had an issue logging into an account and the developer, David, responded very quickly and immediately helped me transfer my data to a new account. Highly recommend for any new or advanced BJJ practitioners!

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2026-07-31*

Getting back into it and this helped get ready

### 5/5 — White Belt

*2026-07-23*

SENERIO: As a newer white belt I train at a Gracie University center within the Gracie Combatives Program. This program consist of 36 techniques, each with 2-4 variations. This is a lot. 
HOW THE FLOWROLL APP IS HELPING:
1: Logging sessions -
This helps to quickly see what you trained on last time so you can review before next class.
2: Listing Techniques - 
You can view all techiques at once. This allows you to quickly choose the technique you want to view. 
3: Notes - 
You can notes and url’s. This allows you to learn and retain the details most efficiently. It also has a link to websites such as specific You Tube channels for specific techniques. For me I enter my Gracie University link and it takes me right to it.
4: Mind Maps
This is such a game changer. I started making mind maps to categorize and link techniques using a mind map app, but now it’s built right into this app. Amazing. 

Look, there is so much more with this app… If you intend to continue training in Jiu-jitsu and want to be more in control of you learning ability, then try this app. 
PS - This is my honest review. I get no monetary gain from this post. 
Blessings

**Developer response:** Thank you this made my week! Really glad you are using the System FlowCharts too. If you have any feature recommendations or ideas, please do reach out to our support and we will look after you!

Thank you

### 5/5 — Genuinely a Great Product

*2026-07-22*

Actually easy to use, intuitive, everything isn’t stuck behind a paywall. 

Even has techniques you should know and a great systems tab. 

Most apps I find are actually gimmicky and not great tools for skill acquisition, this is hands down the best complimentary skill app I’ve used

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the good review mate I'm glad you're enjoying the app. There's plenty more improvements to come!

### 5/5 — This bouta help me learn so well

*2026-07-21*

Learned 1 thing already

**Developer response:** Awesome mate!!

### 5/5 — No YouTube videos?

*2026-06-10*

I’ll still give this a 5 star but I can’t find any videos now on the techniques? There used to be videos on submission, guard pass etc but there is no videos now.

**Developer response:** Hi Obi, Thanks for the review! Could you email us and we will sort this issue out for you asap! 
Cheers

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-06-04*

Helped learn and practice

**Developer response:** Thank you!

### 5/5 — Elite Tool

*2026-03-16*

I catalog right after every training sessions to help me identify strong and weak points in my game. This way I don’t forget what I need to work on an hour after the class. The UI is super useful. I haven’t really used the in app videos a whole lot but just having that resource there is phenomenal. Everyone should be using this app to track their progression and plan future sessions

**Developer response:** Thanks for great review!
