### 2/5 — What Happened

*2026-08-19, version 8.3.1*

It used to be a good app for high-intensity interval training workouts. It seems more yoga-focused now.

### 4/5 — My go to!

*2026-07-13, version 8.2.5*

I love this app. It really helped me get into a workout routine and feel confident. Only think I wish it did was let me select multiple pieces of equipment. There’s no option for machines either.

### 5/5 — Hands down the best workout app

*2026-07-05, version 8.2.5*

I’ve been looking for a good workout app that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg, especially since I had a baby earlier this year. I used Down Dog for a year before I got pregnant, then paused during my third trimester. Since picking back up, I’m stronger and have lost almost 20 pounds in four months. It’s so easy to follow along and customize and I recommend it to everyone trying to get in better shape. Love it!

### 2/5 — Can you please don’t override the background music

*2026-07-05, version 8.2.5*

Can you stop lowering the background app music/sound and allow users to listen to their own stuff? It’s so annoying that i have to max my volume and to hear the podcast or music. And if I exit the app without lowering the volume the actual volume of other apps blow up my ears

### 5/5 — My best coach

*2026-07-05, version 8.2.5*

Your team is my home

### 5/5 — Hit yoga structure

*2026-07-04, version 8.2.5*

Love this mash up btw. Thinking would be good to have option of dynamic yoga warm up then hit then stretch

### 5/5 — Great fast workout!

*2026-06-29, version 8.2.4*

I use this app while charging my vehicle, and get a nice workout in the time that I charge. I love how I can pick the timing and intensity.  Been using the app for years and see myself still doing this when I’m 80 or older.

### 5/5 — Just what I been looking for

*2026-06-28, version 8.2.4*

Been looking for this type of workout program for ages. Put the timer and intervals on and just work out till it’s done. No faffing about with equipment and counting reps.

### 5/5 — Best Workout App

*2026-06-23, version 8.2.1*

Not only are they helping educators with cost to use for our classrooms, sports teams, and clubs, but it’s overall an excellent app for personal and mental health! Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Привет

*2026-06-22*

Супер тренировка и программа 🤌

### 5/5 — Increíble

*2026-06-22, version 8.2.1*

Amo entrenar así como

### 5/5 — Killer to the point but adjustable app

*2026-06-15, version 8.2.1*

I love this and the yoga app. They are excellent in options. I do not have to think about programming. I just focus on movement and intensity.  They had exercises I never did before.

### 5/5 — Life saving

*2026-06-14, version 8.2.1*

I needed something that was flexible and easy to use after my wife and I started having children, and I did not want to neglect the gym. I understood how important it was for my health, being that I am pre-diabetic and I have high cholesterol. This app is very flexible, very easy to use. I can set up the settings as to where my level is. I can also set up the volume and the intensity of the workout. It is very convenient, and even my wife can use it as well. This is one of the best things to happen. Not saying that there are not other apps that do the same service available, I would say that this app specifically is the best quality. The workouts are pristine, the AI coach is very good as well. So I would say that when it comes to quality, this is the best and most tailored app that I see available out there, and it looks like I am going to be a lifer.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-06-13, version 8.2.0*

Nice variety of exercises

### 4/5 — HITT review

*2026-06-12, version 8.2.0*

Not enough time allocated for alternate side

### 4/5 — Great workouts - music meh

*2026-06-11, version 8.2.0*

This is a fantastic tool to do a variety of full body, upper body lower body workouts, especially with a band if you don’t have weights at home. I personally don’t like the music very much so I just turned it off and run my own music with it.

### 5/5 — Супер

*2026-06-06*

Занимаюсь уже несколько лет пилатесом и йогой , удобно , что есть гибкие настройки занятия под себя . Сейчас осваиваю HIIT . Спасибо 🙏

### 5/5 — Loved it but...

*2026-06-05, version 8.2.0*

Latest update makes the app stall out midway through. I trust they'll fix it soon.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-06-04, version 8.2.0*

I’m so impressed by all the down dog apps. They save me so much time from searching for the perfect workout. I know what to expect and yet it’s different each time!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Spamming me with reviewing the app

*2026-06-29, version 8.2.4*

I usually do 10 mins of arms and then 10 mins of glutes and 10 mins of cardio and then 30 mins of yoga after each 10 mins is up I get an ad asking me to review the app. I’m paying a lot of money to use these apps daily I don’t need to be constantly spammed with ads 4 times a day.

### 1/5 — 1st Beginners HIIT

*2026-02-16, version 7.5.2*

Moves way too fast for a complete beginner who doesn’t know them. Demoralising experience and I’m not an unfit person

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2025-08-11, version 7.5.2*

There is a bug preventing you to set the desired duration, changing it to a shorter one

### 1/5 — Too advanced for me

*2025-06-05, version 7.5.2*

I was looking for a simple app to use for daily at home exercise. Tried  this app but didn’t really work for me. Much too difficult even at the easiest setting. Unfortunately I do not qualify for a refund even though I have only used it for 3 days.  Live and learn

### 1/5 — App crashing with latest update

*2024-09-26, version 7.3.18*

Reinstalling not working either and after multiple restarts. Is something broken?

### 1/5 — 환불요청 메일 보냈습니다. 환불해주세요.

*2024-09-02*

환불요청 메일 보냈습니다. 확인 후 처리 부탁드립니다.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2024-07-05, version 7.3.9*

Suddenly can’t use at all without a subscription, no explanation of what feature requires a subscription or any notes in the app update logs explaining it.

### 1/5 — Eliminated options

*2024-07-04, version 7.3.9*

This used to be a great app, but they changed it so workouts are way too easy and no longer involve weights.

### 1/5 — App keeps freezing

*2024-06-28, version 7.3.9*

App freezes and you have to stop and go back to the beginning. Latest version of the app on a new iPhone. And you want me to spend money on this??

### 1/5 — Subscription not working

*2023-11-27*

I have purchased annual subscription but still it’s redirecting me to purchase new subscription. I have tried restore purchase as well but it shows no past purchase message. I have tried customer support as well they are not providing any legit solution. The app is very nice but only thing I can not access it then what’s the use.

### 5/5 — TV Casting is not synced

*2026-08-08, version 8.3.0*

When I sync the TV with the app and reconnects during the session, the app restarts on the phone while the TV continues the streaming. This causes the app to incorrectly track the workout since the TV streaming is done and the app is continuing locally.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-08-07, version 8.3.0*

Now stop asking me to review every time I finish

### 5/5 — Тренировки и йога
