I’ve enjoyed the weight training part of the app but I didn’t use the nutritional part at all as I’m someone who knows what I like to eat intuitively and don’t feel I need that part of the app. I wish that there was a cheaper option for the weight training only as I love the programs. I will be trying other apps before going back to this one. Another issue I had is that the “your plan has expired” message seems to come up every time I open the app, it’s a bit glitchy, even though I am on a paid subscription. Then it takes a long time to load. It just means anytime I look at a different app on my phone and go back to the app it comes up again, it also doesn’t hold my spot when I navigate away from the app even if I keep it open. I haven’t had this issue with other apps, i’m not sure if it can be improved! I wish you could also see the previous weight you used without having to scroll back to a previous day. I am not sure how this could be improved. It’s a shame because I follow Lauren and I love her fitness ethic and have really learned a lot from following her on instagram. ### 4/5 — Great Program - app could use some upgrades *2022-02-01, version 1.0.37* I want to start out that I LOVE these programs and LSF has definitely helped me in losing weight and keep me motivated. But there are a few app fixes that could be made to make the experience better overall: Workouts: Ability to copy exercise over from previous week(s). Currently to change exercises you have to open/close the “Swap Exercise” screen multiple times to try and find the exact exercise you did the week prior. Would be easier if you were shown an entire list to choose from, similar to meal switch. Meals: Not have the total calorie goal for the day change if you change meals! So annoying if I wanted a smaller lunch and bigger snack that my whole count recommendation is off for that day. Lock down the recommended goals. Ability to enter in your own personal meal/calorie count. This app makes if very difficult to use your own snacks and you have to try to just pick something you think might be close. Ability to filter meal or snack options by calorie amount to gain access to all meals. Some days I only need one snack so I’m able to up the calories and need to continuously pick higher calorie snacks over and over to eventually get to the higher options. Example: I see a banana as an option under meals, but it will never show up as an option for snacks. Glitches: Unable to load new photos weekly. Will load my weekly photo update to 29% and crash. If I have the LSF crew reset my app I can lose information I’ve tracked this far (workouts/meals) - not worth it so just annoying. Bonus: Ability to have progress pictures/weight recordings saved on a backend piece of the app to carry over from different challenges. The fact that this needs to be re-entered for each challenge and if you don’t save on your own device it is lost is discouraging and makes the overall app/program less appealing if you want to use long term. Overall this app is great and I love the workouts, but to continue to use long term, updates need to be made to make this a hub for all my tracking. Also the fact that if you purchase the program you need to print it off to use again. I would rather just pay you a monthly fee for workout access and the ability to see historical data rather than sign up for 8 week programs. ### 3/5 — Love the workouts but… *2021-12-26, version 1.0.35* I love the workouts. The app is simple to use, food is good. But now I’m finished the program I need to pay more money to either start again or buy another program. A subscription might be better to enhance customer satisfaction ### 4/5 — Love the workout plans *2021-10-23* I love the workout plans and the ability to swap exercises. I hate the videos. I feel like I lost eye-site. The videos are too dark and too short. They are also filmed at an angle that you can’t see the proper form like feet placement. I love the descriptions so that helped. I also loved how the targeted exercises are listed so I know where I should be feeling it. I wish the app access was longer than just 8 weeks. I prefer videos to pdfs. **Developer response:** Thank you for providing this feedback. We are happy you enjoy the app and your workout program overall and take on board the areas we can improve on. The app is a free download so there is currently a limit to program access which is 8 weeks plus an additional 2 weeks. All the best. Team LSF ### 3/5 — The meal planning is good but *2021-09-20* Frustrating! Someone in customer service reset my start date and it reset my meal plan for the week… after I already shopped and planned 😫 Now I can’t swap the meals I planned. I can’t figure out how to fix it. There’s no number to call. I just wanted the date shifted that was it. Now my meals and workouts are different and I am close to just giving up. **Developer response:** Hi there, resetting a program start date to start over again means that the workouts and meals will reset, however, if you select the same options as last time you should be provided with the same recipes. Please don't give up, we have the support team on hand to help you please email support@laurensimpsonfitness.com for assistance :) Team LSF ### 3/5 — Pretty Good *2021-08-13, version 1.0.33* Pros- exercise videos are easy to follow along to and there is a timer. You can save the workouts as PDFs Meal ideas Cons- Can be glitchy The app expires 2 weeks after the program is over Vegetarian meals are not always vegetarian. When you email them about this they’ll argue with you that fish, gelatin, and collagen is vegetarian lol ### 3/5 — Super easy to follow *2021-08-11, version 1.0.33* You don’t have to figure it out, it’s all there for you. Great results in only 8 weeks. ### 4/5 — The Best Fitness and Nutrition App I’ve Ever Used! *2021-06-17* It’s easy to use, doesn’t crash and the diets actually make sense and has a grocery list!!! My only feedback is make the grocery so that all the items for the week are categorized by type so it’s easier to shop for them instead of trying to scroll through it to find all the dairy and all the produce and all the spices. Make categories like produce, meat, spices, grains, fruit, dairy etc. Other than that, love it Lu thank you! **Developer response:** Your feedback is very useful, thank you, we will take that on board and look to improve the shopping list layout :) Team LSF ### 5/5 — So versatile! *2021-06-06, version 1.0.30* Able to switch between home and gym training daily! A wide variety of easy to prepare delicious meals. Loved the weekly motivational and informative messages from Lauren. World wide support❤️ ### 5/5 — This truly works ! *2021-05-06, version 1.0.30* Having tried so many popular options out there LSF was going to be my last chance . I have been blown away by the amazing simple to use app . Results truly happen . ### 5/5 — Amazing *2021-05-06, version 1.0.30* This app change my habits and lifestyle love you loz and team ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2024-06-06, version 1.0.48* I love the program but the app is useless, I keep getting network error message in any location. Logged out and now can’t get into app but can get into web account. Haven’t been able to use the app all week. I’ve reached out to support and they want my password but I’m not comfortable giving them my password. Hoping I can get a refund. ### 1/5 — This app doesn’t work *2023-08-03, version 1.0.47* I can’t even login after using multiple Gmail accounts ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2022-08-02, version 1.0.40* Probably the worst workout plan I’ve paid money for. Not good if you already have a solid weight training background as you will be back to basics in terrible rep ranges not challenging your strength at all. I chose booty and actually lost shape and volume following this plan ### 1/5 — Worst App *2022-01-15, version 1.0.36* I bought the Shred program and downloaded the app and cannot access it nor will anyone from Lauren’s customer service respond! Gotta love modern day scammers!! ### 1/5 — Sad *2021-11-27, version 1.0.35* Why is there no choice to buy the booty work out plan on the app ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2021-05-08, version 1.0.30* So, you can’t keep the workouts or the meals after you’re done with the program, unless you send them to yourself. The meals seem good, but you can’t access them all to swap out to make or even swap out. I feel like I wasted money on this. ### 1/5 — Only available for the 8 weeks *2021-03-24* The program it’s self is great. But there were a few things I didn’t like. First of all, when you buy the program it automatically throws you into it starting that day as the first day. You can’t choose a start date for when you are ready. Second, you couldn’t view the meal cooking instructions unless they were added to your daily menu and that made it hard to find meals I actually had time for. Third, it EXPIRES!! I paid 80 something dollars for a guide I didn’t even get to keep forever!!! In my opinion this is a complete RIP OFF. Do not buy unless you want to buy for a one time program. I wasted my money on this because I wasn’t able to fully stick to it the first time around and was faithfully following until to my surprise one day it’s gone!! there are better guides out there that don’t expire. DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS IF YOU WANT A LONG TERM GUIDE!!! **Developer response:** Hi Kaitlyn, Sorry to hear this. Programs commence a few hours after you create your account and profile in the app, but the support team are able to change your start date if it doesn't suit you. Every LSF program comes with a disclaimer before purchase stating to download and save the workouts and meal plans which expire 2 weeks after completion due to the app being a free download (not a subscription service). As long as you save the plan you can keep it forever :) Team LSF ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2021-03-02, version 1.0.26* I don’t know if I got the app when they were doing an upgrade but I’m certainly not happy with it. I purchased my plan. (My third plan with LSF) and couldn’t access the plan after waiting 2 days! I contacted LSF via the troubleshooting email only to be told they couldn’t find me. Screen shots of my receipt and acknowledgment of the purchase were sent through. The app was subsequently reset and yet I still Can’t access my program. It’s so frustrating. It’s not user friendly and all I want to do is start my program! I’ve contacted support and still the issue isn’t resolved - it’s disgraceful. ### 2/5 — Not worth it *2022-11-08* I love Lauren but find her app and programs to be frustrating to use: the app is structured to work you out according to the date. If you don’t want to do upper body that day and back track to lower body, it will boot you back to upper body after every exercise. I’m also upset that you lose access immediately after the 8 weeks is up. I have joined other fitness influencers programs and they allow access for 6-12 months. Lauren also charges more then other influencers for a lesser product. Overall disappointed. ### 2/5 — Great Program Terrible App *2022-05-22, version 1.0.38* Absolutely love the fitness and meal elements of this app. Lauren and her team have put together a great program that I’ve really enjoyed using. The app has been a huge barrier however. Photo sizes are too large so I have never been able to record my progress with the app (even using screenshots as suggested by their support team). The meal filters sometimes just don’t work so you have to make up an alternative. I have requested a password reset a few times and the link to reset just never comes. App aside, this is an amazing program. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great program *2022-07-30, version 1.0.40* I love the program ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2022-04-28* Yes, this costs more money to get the benefits. It isn’t free to have what you need. However, it’s completely worth every penny. Macros make zero sense to me and this app works those out for me with meal plans. It’s so easy. Then, it gives you a shopping list. The workouts are really good. They are difficult and that’s exactly what I signed up for. You can also track your measurements and pictures throughout the challenge in the app. The support was great as well when I had a question. I can’t wait to do my next challenge! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review! If you have any suggestions on how we can improve the app and programs please let the support team know. Have a wonderful day! - Team LSF ### 5/5 — Absolutely Amazing Fitness App 11/10 *2021-10-09, version 1.0.34* So easy to use, super helpful app, I have had no issues with it whatsoever. This program has helped me shred fat and build muscle in areas I didn’t know I could 🙏 ### 5/5 — Best program *2021-10-08, version 1.0.34* Я обожаю Лаурен и ее команду. Я не первый год занимаюсь под ее программой. Еда очень вкусная, и не нужно выготавливать постоянно. Моя вся семья кушает по ее рецепту. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2021-10-02, version 1.0.33* This is the first workout plan I’ve properly stuck to because it’s so easy to follow and I feel progress every week. ### 5/5 — PERFECT *2021-09-21* This app is everything I’ve been looking for in a fitness app. I’m so incredibly busy so I’ve been looking for some thing that tells me how to work out and what to eat so that I stay on track but don’t have to put in too much work and this is the perfect app for that. Lauren Simpson has a fantastic team who are super responsive and helpful when you email them and she’s very interactive on the Facebook pages when people ask for help. I will always sign up for a challenge when she puts it! **Developer response:** We are so pleased to hear that you are having an amazing experience with LSF. We look forward to your journey with LSF and for you to be there during our progression! Team LSF ### 5/5 — Lots of Variety and Good Tasting Meals! *2021-08-24, version 1.0.33* The Bikini x Strong program is amazing so far! I have been lifting in the gym for years and I still found this to be a good program to challenge myself. The meals are seriously amazing! I love the ability to swap out options too. The only improvement that I would suggest is organizing the grocery lists into food category because it’s just an unorganized list of things you need. I resorted to writing it down on paper after my first shop where I wandered around aimlessly. Would make the grocery shop a lot more efficient. ### 5/5 — Impressed *2021-08-10, version 1.0.33* Easy to follow plenty of variety with food and exercises keeps me motivated Love it 💝 ### 5/5 — Best shape I’ve been in since I was 16 *2021-06-09, version 1.0.31* Honestly this is so worth the money I have followed the workouts everyday and this is by far the best shape I’ve been in since I was 16 I keep getting so many compliments for how great I look! The app is great and each exercise has an alternative incase you can’t do the suggested one (eg if you don’t have the equipment or can’t do it) also great how can switch between home and gym so if going away for a bit or won’t have access to a gym can still workout! Really structured workouts with video demon for each exercise so really easy to follow and has amazing results! ### 5/5 — 5 Stars! *2021-06-06* The app is very easy to navigate. Even swapping out meals and exercises to accommodate personal needs is easy. All progress photos and measurements are done right in the app so it’s all in one spot. The programming and content is spot on and is exactly as expected. I LOVE the challenges and they have all been unique so far. I also love being able to download the meal plans AND workout programs to have forever. Keep up the great work LSF team 🙂 **Developer response:** Thank you for the continuous support! We will continue to bring the best programs and experience to customers! Team LSF --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
