### 1/5 — Waste of money and time

*2022-11-23, version 1.0.142*

Put so much time into trying to get it to work. Never records a workout. 

Just use Argdata and connect it to logbook. Logbook will sync with Garmin and Strava. 

Completed so many 10k meter workouts and wanted to use this to track progress. Found it so frustrating. Created a few tickets to try to resolve and they were not helpful.

**Developer response:** Unfortunately I can not find any tickets you are referring to, I'm sorry to hear that KREW did not work out for you. Feel free to reach out to support@krewfit.net with more information regarding your issues and we'll try to take it from there.

### 1/5 — Great app until you try and reset password

*2022-07-08, version 1.0.120*

Did really like the app except needed to reset password and email to do so never arrives (checked spam). Unusable if you can’t login.

**Developer response:** Hi, sorry to reply so late, reach out to support@krewfit.net and we can help you with your password reset.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2024-07-18*

Won’t allow sign up, app just crashes.

### 1/5 — Hangs on Account Creation

*2024-06-23*

Can’t get past the email and username check.

### 1/5 — dead app

*2024-05-27*

login and sign up pages just crash the app. Homepage just has a dead link.

### 1/5 — Unable to create account

*2024-03-21*

Couldn’t get pass create your account page.  Username, email, and password showed okay but kept saying format incorrect.  Tried different information and never could make it work.

### 1/5 — Crashes ALL the time

*2024-03-08*

I REALLY want to live this app. It worked great for a month or two so I subscribed. Now it doesn’t recognize my login and hangs up. None of my workouts have been stored. I have to delete and reinstall the app to make it work. 

Terrible!

Look elsewhere for your rowing app.

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2024-02-26*

App no longer works, cannot log in anymore.  App was great when it worked

### 1/5 — No longer works

*2024-02-25*

App was great when it was working, now no longer lets you log in

### 1/5 — Looks like app is finally dead

*2024-02-19*

Not as much workout depth as live rowing, but was a good app until it wasn’t. Can no longer log in.

### 1/5 — Password reset is broken

*2023-12-22*

As others noted password reset does not work for this app so if you lose your password you are out of luck. 

The account signup screen is also kind of wonky.  It does indeed sign you up but it doesn’t update the form and in particular doesn’t give the queue that iOS needs to prompt you to save the password you’ve entered. Hence my need for a password reset…

It is nonfunctional without logging in.  It does nothing.  And as noted, there is no way to reset your password. (They never send the promised email with instructions. )

### 1/5 — Can access app

*2023-12-06*

Got new iPhone. Forgot password. Have tried to reset many times where the message is to check my email for instructions. But, no instructions have been received for hours.
Buyer beware.

### 5/5 — As described

*2023-04-26*

Easy to use and sync with rower. Good feedback as well

### 5/5 — Krew makes it easy to write workouts and track progress

*2023-02-16, version 1.0.142*

Krew makes it easy to write workouts and track progress

### 5/5 — Great app for Concept 2

*2022-12-08, version 1.0.142*

Seemless to the PM5 great way to customize interval workouts. Developer receptive to suggestions and bug reports.

### 5/5 — Great Free App

*2022-05-13, version 0.9.620*

The app works exactly as described. Pairs easily with a concept2 with a PM5. The free version comes with a huge amount of rowing workouts. So great not having to program your own intervals. Wish I could comment on the audio coaching, but that’s not included in the free version. Enjoy!

### 5/5 — Great app and great support!

*2021-12-08, version 0.9.455*

Developers do a great job working on issues that are reported and support the product with professionalism and dedication. Highly recommend!

### 4/5 — Best concept rowing app!

*2022-01-10*

Great app and best one I have seen. Would have no problem paying for this app. Wish I could feed back my heart rate from my Apple Watch to the concept2 or have the app display while I work out. Great job guys !!

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your review!
With KREW premium the watch app can send the heart rate captured to the phone app, and from there it will also sync over to third party integrations like Concept2 Logbook, Strava and/or Apple Health.

Other than that, KREW premium gives you access to create custom intervals, challenge & compare previous activity and more.

### 3/5 — poor ios functionality

*2022-01-20, version 0.9.471*

i have this app on android and ios. on ios i wasn't able to add friends, but i can on android. also on my 13mini i cannot save any workouts, the app just hangs every time - but this works properly on android. 

kinda sad how much of this app is behind pay wall.. wanted to have some leaderboards against my friends, but i guess i'll just do that in garmin or on strava.

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for reaching out - we're not aware of any issues saving workouts on iOS, can you share some more information directly to support@krewfit.net (username, estimated date/time of save, video?) and we will try to solve it together!

Regarding premium subscription, we do try to keep the main functionality completely free for all users and most users are happy with that, which makes us happy! We do, however, have to pay for our servers and services we use, without our premium subscribers we would not be able to continue running and developing this app. Granted that iOS is still a little behind on features compared to Android, we're working on that as well!

### 3/5 — Undecided

*2021-11-24, version 0.9.405*

This is the same outfit that produced LiveRowing and then ghosted the whole community so I’m leery about paying premium and getting ripped off again. Withholding a full review until more folks are using this.

**Developer response:** Hi Jbrp, LiveRowing is still up and running, even though all development is focused on KREW which have been around on Android for 2+ years and now also available on iOS. Sorry to hear you feel you were 'ripped off' by LR, reach out to support@krewfit.net if you have any further questions or want to continue the conversation.

### 2/5 — Worked and now won’t log in

*2024-02-17*

The app seemed to work just perfectly until a couple days ago, where I keep experiencing unexpected errors at the login window, and now can no longer use the app. I tried deleting the app and creating a new account, and it keeps saying that the information is in the wrong format, but all I am doing is using my email and a password. Would love to write higher, but it currently doesn’t work.

### 2/5 — Worked great until it didn’t

*2024-02-14*

Love the app, the data it provides, the workouts. All worked great until it froze up. Can’t get the main screen to scroll, collection is gone. I have the yearly subscription. It’s no use to me unless this gets fixed. Yes, I did all the uninstall/reinstall latest update, etc stuff.
