### 5/5 — البرنامج

*2026-06-27, version 3.1.3*

اروع برنامج

### 5/5 — Gym Rat

*2026-06-07, version 3.1.3*

Amazing app - used it for years to track progress. It’s elite.

### 5/5 — Great job

*2025-10-04, version 3.0.13*

Literally my favorite fitness application thanks Taylor for this app we hope to see widgets being added <3

### 3/5 — Decent

*2024-08-26, version 3.0.4*

Gets the job done but very buggy. Sometimes workouts do not save, the metrics will shift from kg to lb and i will have to manually adjust. Sometimes app randomly closes.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2024-07-05, version 3.0.1*

ive been using this app for years now, and i cant workout without looking at it, it helped a lot with remembering my weights and reach full intensity. Also they have a great responsive support team

### 5/5 — Brilliant App. 5/7 Perfection

*2024-07-05, version 3.0.1*

Read it somewhere a clean, simple and easy to use app was needed for recording lifting heavy things. This legend created and shared it. Been using it for many years. Well worth paying for the premium and supporting this legend.
Thank you!!

### 1/5 — Cool UI update but bugged

*2024-07-02*

I appreciate the UI update. It looks “new” but the positive ends there. The app is completely unusable. It feels like a beta. The app will randomly delete crash/freeze and delete your logged workouts. Buttons are either overlapping or will just disappear. As you’re logging your data, the app will take you to a random date. Again, I appreciate the fresh and new UI but no point if I can’t use the app. I’d prefer to have the old UI until they can work on this app that really feels like a beta.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback and apologies for the issues you have been encountering. These should be resolved in the most recent update (3.0.1). However if you are still having any issues, please reach out to me at support@intensityapp.com and I will get them resolved.

### 4/5 — Good until recent update

*2024-07-02, version 3.0.0*

How am I supposed to see the exercise I’m supposed to do if the annoying red bar is covering it? Uh oh…

### 1/5 — BAD UPDATE!!!

*2024-06-30*

Worst update to an application ever. deleted all my data that ive been putting in for years now!!!!
also the update made the application hard to use and full of bugs

**Developer response:** Firstly, I apologise for the issues. Your data is not lost, you are likely just logged into the wrong account. Please contact me at support@intensityapp.com and I will help you regain access to your account.

### 5/5 — Thumbs up

*2024-06-17, version 2.3.0*

Great app for tracking lifts at the gym. Thanks
