### 4/5 — Good app

*2024-11-05, version 2.1.0*

The app is missing a few work videos

### 3/5 — Good Content, Clunky Implementation

*2022-12-30, version 2.1.0*

Good videos, good sets of exercises, but the way it’s organized feels like it was designed years ago and never updated (which is true). Passwords for specific content feels like not the best way to provide access because there are weird partitions in the content that make no sense if you’ve bought the tools. And my biggest, basic gripe: that you need to turn the silent switch off (ringer on) for the sound to work. And even then, sometimes the sound doesn’t work — on my iPad, if I turn off the silent mode, the video sound works AND the timer clicks and “rest” sounds work, but for some reason on my iPhone if I turn on the ringer switch, the video sound works but I don’t get those same in-workout timer clicks and “rest” sound effects. Just weird bugs associated with sound which kind of feels like the very most basic thing for an iPhone app in 2023. I would delete the app and redownload to see if that fixes it, but I’m worried I’d just lose all my random program passwords I’ve put in, which are not recorded anywhere in one place. iCloud sync between iPhone and iPad would be great too so that completed workouts are consistent across devices.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2022-04-12, version 2.1.0*

This is a good app. Some things I would like to see in the future:
1: Modified exercises for those with injury or slower to progress.
2: Tracking
That’s all. Other than that, the variety is great. I love the challenges as well.

### 3/5 — Sound problems?

*2022-03-03, version 2.1.0*

I am watching stoic videos and not getting any sound from them

### 2/5 — 11 months and no update..

*2021-09-02, version 2.0.1*

This app is getting long in the tooth. I’ve had it since the monkii bars 2, and apart from adding the new devices it hasn’t changed much.

My big gripes are the lack of tracking:

- no way to track progress
- no history
- no calendar to see what workouts have been done or gaps between workouts, etc

Some tracking features are long overdue as well as resolving some of the bugs of videos freezing. This app was probably a 4-star app hen this app came out 4 years ago, even if it was basic. But come on, 11 months now with no update at all and no major update for way longer than that. Monkii is still putting out new products and forgetting about their app, which is (at least for me) a big part of the ecosystem.

Also, the program feature is great but some exercises introduced are WAY too hard for the given level. Currently users have to adapt the program to themselves by just not finishing the workout rather than the workout building them up with reasonable progressions.

2 stars as it’s not useless or buggy, it’s just old and lacking.

### 4/5 — Great but could use more modification tips

*2021-02-10, version 2.0.1*

I really enjoy the Monkii app! The videos are helpful for learning techniques and the workouts definitely get you sweating. I especially liked the 21 Day Monkey Challenge.

What I wish it had though was more suggested modifications if certain exercises are too challenging as a newbie. There is a pretty big jump in reps for exercises from the 21 Day Challenge to the 14 Day commitment, plus an increase in difficulty of certain moves (like plyo-Bulgarian squats after doing 45 jump squats). That’s my only real criticism: having more middle ground after the beginner course.

### 3/5 — Good start, needs work.

*2020-12-22, version 2.0.1*

First, a minor complaint: I need to enter the password for the Isocore content every single time I want to use it. Maybe there’s a trick I haven’t found yet, but if not please make it so the app saves this password, at least for 30 days at a time or so. 

Second, it would be very helpful to have a written explanation & tips with each exercise to help prevent incorrect form. A picture indicating which muscle(s) the exercise is supposed to target would also be super useful, especially for those of us who are new to this kind of training. 

Other than that, the app seems to be stable and work as expected. I look forward to future developments.

### 3/5 — App/Workout Is Great But...

*2020-09-26, version 2.0.1*

It would be great to receive more guidance within the app as to whether you should be facing the door, back to the door, perpendicular, etc. Usually it's obvious but with some exercises it's super hard to tell.

### 4/5 — Good app, but could be better

*2020-08-21, version 2.0.0*

Got this app to use with my monkii 360.  Awesome product and great exercises.  My main complaint comes from needing audio cues when timed exercises or rests are done.  Hard to look at the phone screen all the time.  They say it's coming though.  After that improvement I won't really have any complaints.  Great companion to the monkii 360.

### 3/5 — Quiet

*2020-07-10, version 2.0.0*

There is no sound with the app nothing to tell you audibly to change motions/rest. Bring on the timer sounds!

### 3/5 — Please add sound to workouts

*2020-07-08, version 2.0.0*

Nice app but no countdown audio cues or next exercise cue. Tough to pay attention to a phone screen and focus on effort and form at the same time. If that gets added then 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Suggestions

*2020-06-21, version 2.0.0*

Great app, great workout, but some suggestions for the Monkii 360:
1. Tell us at the beginning where to anchor. Some require top, some bottom, some shoulder-height, and it’s a guessing game. 
2. Tell us a list of what exercises are in store each day, whether you need lateral space or vertical space or whatever. 

Thanks!

### 2/5 — Was working on my iPhone

*2020-06-16, version 2.0.0*

As of today’s workout I have no sound. iPhone 7. I turned off blue tooth and restarted. Uninstalled and reinstalled and nothing. 
Please help.

### 3/5 — Awesome programs, lacking metrics

*2020-06-16, version 2.0.0*

Love the Monkii 360 and the exercise programs included in the app, especially the video sessions! The Monkii 360 itself, 5-star for sure. There are some major things I’d really like to see added to the app that are keeping me from a 5-star review here:

Minus one star for lack of interactivity. I hope to see more video workout sessions in the future and less of me swiping after each exercise, kind of breaking the flow of the workout. 

Minus one more star for lack of being able to start and track workout activities in-app for Apple Watch users, like Strava or FitBod or the watch app Workouts.

### 3/5 — No sound

*2020-06-04, version 2.0.0*

Is there a way to turn on sound in the app? It’s hard to know when to start and stop exercises with the new Monkii 360 that I got.

### 4/5 — Great!  Please optimize for iPad

*2020-05-25, version 2.0.0*

Hello!  I would love for the app to be optimized for iPad so that I can see better on the iPad’s larger screen.  Thanks a ton!

### 3/5 — iPad update

*2020-04-15, version 1.1.1*

Needs an iPad update also still can’t download videos for offline playback.  Other than that it’s a 5 star app.

### 2/5 — Sound does not work! 🙉

*2020-04-02, version 1.1.1*

Very excited about the product and the 21-day challenge, but learning without sound is challenging and annoying. The sound worked one day. I deleted the app and re-installed it but still no sound. My phone or other apps have no sound issues, so it is obviously the Monkii app. Please fix asap! Thanks

### 3/5 — Inconsistent app

*2020-03-26, version 1.1.1*

Really hard to use the app and some of the videos do not have sound nor provide captions. There should be an option to just review workouts specifically. It would be nice to open source the content. Especially if this not going to be updated consistently

### 1/5 — No sound

*2020-06-15, version 2.0.0*

Sooo are you going to fix the sound? Or is that a premium...

### 1/5 — Issues

*2020-04-17, version 1.1.1*

There is no volume with most of my tutorial videos.

### 1/5 — Missing many parts

*2020-04-17, version 1.1.1*

After purchasing the Monkii Bars 2 I saw there were no instructions. Unfortunately the Monkii App only has setup instructions for the pocket monkii and not the monkii bars 2. In addition to this the videos and instruction do not have sound for the setups or the workouts.

### 1/5 — NO SOUND

*2020-04-05, version 1.1.1*

There’s no sound please fix!

### 1/5 — No sound through phone speakers

*2019-11-19, version 1.1.1*

The audio on the video only works with headphones plugged in, or while synced to a Bluetooth speaker. It won’t play at all through the device. I’ve tried reinstalling the app on my phone, and I’ve tried it on the iPad with no luck.

### 1/5 — Fix the sound

*2019-10-30, version 1.1.1*

There is no sound. Several people have mentioned this in their review. Fix it.

### 1/5 — Sound doesn’t work. Would love to try it.

*2019-08-20, version 1.1.1*

Not sure what’s up but there is no sound.

### 1/5 — No Sound

*2019-08-18, version 1.1.1*

Downloaded App. No sound😢

### 1/5 — Sound is not working

*2019-08-12, version 1.1.1*

I was very excited to try it, but sound is not working in all videos

### 1/5 — Sound not working

*2019-04-02, version 1.1.0*

During the Beta trial I reported the sound not working at all on any exercise or video. I'm having the same issue now it's released. Simply no sound at all even after restart or reinstallation. All other apps withing fine with sound.
My bars arrived today and are set up awaiting use.

### 5/5 — The best

*2020-11-30, version 2.0.1*

The most well thought out fitness app I’ve ever seen!!!

### 5/5 — Best workout App + Devices EVER!

*2020-09-01, version 2.0.0*

I‘ve loved the app before the Monkii360 and now I love it even more!

The infite ways of combining the workouts and devices is incredible! Super fast setup anywhere and wildly portable 💪🏾
The introduction videos from the 360 habit (only seen them so far) are great and Dans appearance is just always motivating!! 
Using Monkii devices keeps me from not getting bored and also have no reason to not workout when I‘m travelling or at work.

Since the update for the 360 and Isocore X the App has gotten even better and I‘m looking forward to master the TT workouts someday!

Keep it wild!

### 5/5 — Great app. Can’t wait for audio queues

*2020-08-29, version 2.0.0*

Great app. Super excited that audio queues will soon be added.  

All in all it’s a fantastic app.

### 5/5 — Great app - also, take your phone off Silent

*2020-06-05, version 2.0.0*

I’m new to the Monkii app, having just gotten my Monkii 360 and I think it’s a great balance of not being too overly complicated and fairly simple, making things easy to follow. If I could make an optional suggestion, maybe have a built-in journal where the users can input their own diet and progress as they go through the different programs. However, it’s just a suggestion for personal use and convenience since you can just use another app for that. Having an iPad compatible version would help too, BUT, you can download iPhone apps for iPad from the immediate interface, so that’s more for optimization purposes. Lastly, for those reviews I’ve seen people complaining about some videos having sound and some not....take your phone off of Silent Mode. When you put it on Silent Mode, it mutes the videos.

### 5/5 — Very very good app

*2020-03-25, version 1.1.1*

The is absolutely no better app in this category.  Even in all categories. It’s a really great app. I’m a web developer and I see a bit behind the curtain. Great Wort. Great usability. Great design. Well done

### 5/5 — Incredible app 🔥

*2020-01-26, version 1.1.1*

Possibly the best app on the AppStore with bunch of TRX exercises. Love it so much !! So much workouts for everything you ever need)suits perfectly for those who  don’t have the access to gym.

### 5/5 — Secret sauce to a great Monkii health regimen

*2019-12-31, version 1.1.1*

I bought the Pocket Monkii because I liked its portability and high quality. But I think I like this app even more! The exercises are clearly explained and demonstrated, the progression of the Habit course is keeping me motivated without burning out. But most of all, and it sounds silly to say, but I want to keep doing the workouts because of Monkii Dan’s positive energy. I feel like Monkii Dan has faith in me so I can keep going. Thanks Monkiis!

### 5/5 — Супер

*2019-05-08, version 1.1.1*

Ребята, из бесплатного контента, пожалуй лучшее приложение! Мои мышцы говорят Вам спасибо!

### 5/5 — Fantastic to have MANY quick to watch videos

*2019-03-25, version 1.1.0*

It does everything simple. Perfect. Shows me new ideas and is very fast. Works awesome with monkii bars or TRX or similar. But Monkii is better since the two straps can be attached to separate points unlike TRX. Amazing. Be wild.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-03-20, version 1.0.0*

Excellent app one of the best I seen
