Solid Workout Tracker with Great Interval Features, but Persistent Bugs and Poor Support
I've been using iCardio for years primarily because it focuses on actual workouts rather than heavy social media integration, which I appreciate—though unfortunately, it's starting to add more of those elements over time. It supports a huge variety of activities, from running and cycling to weightlifting and even everyday tasks like yard work. The interval training setup is excellent and easy to use, and the audio cues during workouts are clear, motivating, and very effective for keeping me on track.
The online help resources are quite good for explaining how features work. However, there are some frustrating bugs that have persisted for years despite feedback:
Even with metric units selected, some workouts (especially loaded ones) default to imperial measurements.
Editing a saved session seems to work, but changes don't save—when you reload it, it reverts to the original.
Unfavoriting a session doesn't remove it from the favorites list; no amount of reinstalling fixes this.
Support is a major letdown. It's essentially just the help articles plus an AI bot that redirects you back to them. There's no real troubleshooting for bugs or user-reported issues. I've raised some of these problems multiple times over the years and only get generic advice like "reinstall the app," which doesn't help.
If it weren't for the strong interval tools, effective audio coaching, and less intrusive social features compared to competitors, I'd have switched long ago. It's a capable app held back by unresolved issues and lack of responsive support. Hope the developers address these soon!

Great Workout App!
I have used this product since its inception to track my workouts and have zero complaints. looking back at the saved results, I have logged over 2000 workouts since 2010. It tracks the type of workout from weightlifting to elliptical to open outdoor activities (think yard work) to open indoor activities (think vacuuming or cleaning a bathroom). It tracks the amount of time, calories, and even effort. If you are outside, it will map your route.
The app works with my iPhone and my Apple Watch seamlessly. It also connects to my Polar Heart-rate monitor while it is connected to my elliptical.
Note: I do find the heart rate strap to be more accurate on the calorie burn than the watch, but you can choose whether the app uses the watch or strap for your heart rate tracking.
