### 4/5 — Great... apart from one thing

*2020-02-06, version 2.1*

It’s brilliant, using the 8 week accelerator really helped me get into shape for my upcoming intake. But it won’t let me play music and have the app beeping sounds at the same time. If that was solved definitely a 5 star

### 4/5 — Loving it

*2019-03-26, version 2.1*

I’m currently training to enrol and this is super easy to keep up with and do..easy simple layout but would like some sort of beep once the timer is up for an activity but besides that very solid

### 4/5 — Awesome app!

*2016-10-15, version 1.1.1*

This app is easy to use and the 6 week training programme is effective and beginner friendly! The use of awards within the app is not only motivating but a great way to track progress! My only issue is when I try to open the "Recruit Tests" section, the app crashes. Please fix this!

### 4/5 — Great app with 1 minor issue

*2016-06-30, version 1.1.1*

I love this app but whenever I go for a run it doesn't track my distance properly and ends up thinking I've run a straight line through the neighbourhood so I'm never sure how far I've actually gone unless I map it out on Google, this app is great everywhere else though and would really appreciate to see this worked on.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2015-12-08, version 1.0.2*

Good app but it crashes whenever I try to enter my height so I can only enter my weight in to the profile

### 4/5 — Great but crashes...

*2015-10-06, version 1.0.2*

The app crashes whenever I try to enter my height... Please fix this! Otherwise it's an amazing app!

### 1/5 — Videos are not playing

*2025-07-30, version 2.1*

I’m using IOS and all of the videos are not working 😅 please fix

### 1/5 — Crashes a lot

*2025-06-29, version 2.1*

It’s good for seeing what exercises you should be doing to train but entirely useless because the videos that show you how you should be doing them, don’t work. The app crashes when trying to play the video every single time on every single video. Unusable.

### 2/5 — Update it

*2025-10-30, version 2.1*

Keeps crashing … not working can this be fixed pleased .. hoha

### 2/5 — App keeps closing

*2025-01-15, version 2.1*

Not that good. Every time I try to watch the video on “How to do..” the app closes itself. I believe the app needs fixing.

### 3/5 — Minor issue

*2025-09-13, version 2.1*

I really enjoy this app and it helps heaps to get fit especially the 8 week accelerator but the video tutorials never play. So if they fixed that issue it would definitely be near 5 stars.

### 3/5 — Mediocre

*2020-12-10, version 2.1*

Good all round app other than my how to demonstrations with the exercises if it can be fixed 5stars

### 3/5 — Great but fix the tracking and recording issues!

*2019-08-06, version 2.1*

Excellent app, it’s getting me fixed. BUT it’s not fully tracking my runs and it’s occasionally not letting me record my runs. Otherwise it’s awesome and I feel stronger after just two weeks, thanks!

### 3/5 — A couple of issues

*2017-07-26, version 2.0*

This app is amazing; I love the design of the general layout and the idea of trophies for motivation.
However, there are a couple of issues. Firstly, when I try to play a video of how to do an exercise, it never plays. I'm not sure if I'm the only one experiencing this. Secondly, it would be appreciated if the app beeped or something once the timers for the exercises were up. Thirdly, when running, the app doesn't track my distance at all. 
If these issues get resolved, this app would definitely have 5/5 stars.

### 3/5 — Good app but it crashes

*2015-12-23, version 1.0.2*

Glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem...

A good app with great potential but it crashes EVERY time I try to enter my height!

Please fix this so I can use the app to its full potential! Very frustrating.

### 4/5 — Only one issue

*2022-01-17, version 2.1*

The only issue for me is after watching half of a video it sorta just kicks me out of the app lmao, I can get back in tho, idk if it happens for anyone else or just me. It’s not much of a problem though, the good out weighs the bad for this app and I’m honestly surprised it isn’t higher up on the charts for health and fitness tbh. You don’t have to pay obviously which is much better than all the other fitness apps.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2017-09-27, version 2.0*

Fantastic app. This really helped me get fit before my intake, I found a huge difference in my level of fitness before and after using the app. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2017-02-10, version 2.0*

Awsome app, it has helped me get fit and hopefully a step closer to joining the army

### 5/5 — Excellent!!!

*2015-03-08, version 1.0.2*

I am currently building up my fitness for the defence force and have never been so motivated to do exercise so consistently in my entire life. Love this app as its so easy to have a planned fitness routine rather than going off the top of my head. Highly recommend for men or women who are planning to join the nz defence force or someone who wants to get fit and strong.

### 5/5 — Beautifully made and really motivating!

*2014-11-16, version 1.0.1*

I really love this app, exceeding all my expectations and I'm already 3 kgs lighter and much fitter! - def recommend

### 5/5 — Breeze to use, brilliant ui

*2014-11-12, version 1.0.1*

Love it it's amazing seriously buy this right now oh wait it's free f**k yeah! Seriously this is a brilliant app and worth the download even if you aren't going for the defense forces.

### 5/5 — Great stuff

*2014-11-06*

Read about it on stuff and thought it’s worth a download. Really slick app and challenging!

### 5/5 — Duke

*2014-11-05, version 1.0.1*

Awesome app very easy to use with intuitive UI, recommended!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2014-11-04, version 1.0.1*

Just finished week 2 and have lost 4kgs already.

### 4/5 — Awesome app!

*2020-05-03, version 2.1*

This app is great! The only thing it needs to improve is when you want to play music from Spotify the app pauses your music. It’s kind of annoying. The app also pauses if you lock your screen. Other than that, it’s a great app.
