### 5/5 — Love being a hero!

*2026-07-26*

New site works great. Very easy to find  programs and join in for options. I love Foresters Go!

### 1/5 — Poorly designed and inaccurate app

*2025-06-27, version 4.11*

Terribly designed app/bad reward system. asking for too much access to your data. Wouldn’t trust them. The positive reviews must be their employees

### 4/5 — Diet

*2024-12-18*

On the food part there is no way to enter food allergies

### 5/5 — Foresters Go

*2024-03-25*

Nice exercise practice to keep us fit

### 5/5 — 414-162

*2024-03-03, version 4.8*

Love this app as it gives me the motivation to get moving

### 5/5 — Wished I had explored sooner

*2024-02-07*

So today after a few years I decided to explore a little bit more about this app, to my surprise - I actually like it very much and can see myself using it every day, seems to o have many cool features and you accumulate points…. For doing what you do every day….. very nice app.

### 5/5 — Love Love Love

*2023-05-30*

I love Go Forester!!!!

### 3/5 — Not as useful as you might think

*2023-05-04*

There’s a big push from the AI to set up fitness goals and check in to see your progress, but there is no way to UPDATE those goals in the app. Which means you can’t get the credit for achievement and you have to read messages from the AI about how you should try harder - frustrating.

### 2/5 — Let me try and try again

*2023-04-20, version 4.5*

It would be nice to be able to retry a challenge or goal if I don’t quite make it. If i do better and better each time though not completing it I should be allowed to keep trying until I can move on. I can’t go to intermediate or advanced if I don’t get through beginner. I am proud of what I can do even if its not at the rate of athletic. Remembering there are physical and mental challenged folks in Foresters would be a good thing for the diversity inclusive side of todays lives. 

It would be nice to put a challenge out there that can be authorized so when i ask for a photo in a challenge the participants are able to do so. 

Have you looked at “participation” app?

### 1/5 — Error

*2023-03-08*

I cannot login, each time I try it gives me an ‘error unauthorised’ message. Super frustrating.
