This app is trash.

This app is garbage. Nothing works on it. It’s like the developers threw some things together and said forget it and put it to the side. And they have the nerve to charge for it. Do not waste your money. The concept is good but it just doesn’t work. I can’t update my weight past 200 pounds. And when I try to change some things it says “an error has occurred please try again”. I tried to reach out twice and never heard anything back from the developers. I’m going to find a better app. I don’t mind paying but I need something worth the money this is a joke of an app.

Weight tracker

When you track your weight it only lets you go to 200 pounds. I weigh more than 200 pounds. I emailed them to change it but I never heard anything back.

Good potential

App has good potential but is a bit flaky when it comes to recording sets, often getting stuck in a loop at set 1 & not cycling through to end of set to next exercise. Food look up for macro tracking need to be expanded. Expect more for the price tag considering it’s on an annual subscription basis.

Quick Fix

Very happy to say that the developer was able to fix all of my issues in less than 48 hours. Sets are coming up correctly, and the workouts are great for my goals.

Thanks for updating your updated review! Please contact us if you have any other questions or feedback.

Bugs Make It Useless

The app sounds great on paper, but it seems to have quite a few bugs that make is useless:

1. ⁠Today, it isn’t saving my sets. It just resets to the original weight and keeps it at 6 reps.
2. ⁠I’m not able to update my workout settings. It is set to “low reps” and “home gym”, and any time I update and save it says “internal server error.”
3. ⁠I can’t copy previous day’s nutrition.

I’d love it if the app worked, but this isn’t useable. Will these issues get fixed?

Hi! Thanks for bringing these issues to our attention. We replied to your comment in our subreddit as well and have resolved these issues. Please reach out if you experience any other bugs.

Great App!

I love this app! It helps me stay on top of my workout routine and my eating routine! I am super busy and this app helps me stay on point. Thanks Lift Buddy!

Too many bugs

I’ve had my fill of this app having given it multiple second chances. When it works it’s reasonably good, but the issues with consistency consistently let it down.

Case in point, I can’t even log in today and it wants me to subscribe again despite having paid for the year in full.

Cancelled subscription and then resubscribed but even that wouldn’t grant me access!

Not good enough.

Couldn’t get past paywall

Wanted to give the app a chance but was stuck at the paywall everyone I went to accept the new program.

Awesome

Best gym app I’ve tried so far and I’ve tried a handful of them. Keeps me on track for training and diet. They also update it often. Feel like I’m getting in better shape already

Excellent app

Well thought out app and very well designed. Has really kept me accountable. Well done!

Response from developer

Thanks for your review! Glad you are enjoying the app

Great app for lifting

This app has good programming and I like how they combine the nutrition and training in one.

I wish you had the ability to add a set mid-workout, but I’d still recommend this and I’ve tried a bunch of weight training apps.

Response from developer

Thanks for your review! We are working on adding functionality to add a set mid workout! Stay tuned

Keeping Fit!

I’ve been using this for a several weeks and I really like the programming. They have a lot of good exercises, the programs are well balanced and I like that I can manage my training and diet in one place. It probably works best if you have access to a full gym with consistent routine. For years I’ve wanted to go beyond toning and develop a healthier physique, which can only happen with proper diet combined with weight training.This app helps with that goal.

Very good app for weightlifters

Been going to the gym for a while and this has helped me level up my results. The weight and rep suggestions are awesome and I love the macro coaching and food logging. This is a great app for anyone looking to improve in the gym

Bad App

App not working at all. Tried to sign up, I entered everything twice it charged me and still does not work. Reporting to Apple to get money back. Costumer service not great either.

Save your money. Don’t waste your money like I did on this terrible app.

Response from developer

Paid

These are paid apps no free trail

Won’t open

Only left a 1 star for now as couldn’t find away to message anyone but the app won’t load last generating a plan tried numerous times

Please help

Needs more work

Found that the barcode did not recognise the English barcodes I tried. You had to gauge calorific input from American brands.. workout section needs work.. makes the assumption you can do the workout in order the app tells you which is not intuitive. I can stand waiting around for a machine to come free. Your not able to complete the workout but in a different order according to what machine is free..
