## What is Moova?

Do you find yourself glued to your chair for hours? Feeling stiff, sluggish, or experiencing back pain from too much sitting? It's time to stand up and move with Moova!

### 1/5 — 12 dollars a month for little reminders

*2026-08-04, version 4.18.1*

This could’ve easily been a free app. I was looking for a little more convenience opposed to using my own alarms. Unfortunately there is absolutely no free version and you’re immediately milked into the free trial screen. Onto the next unfortunately

### 4/5 — It’s got me moving!

*2026-08-02, version 4.18.1*

I already knew about the benefits of moving throughout the day but didn’t know what to do exactly. Moova is a great resource for ways to move like stretching and strengthening. I love the reminders!

### 5/5 — ESSENTIAL!!!

*2026-07-30, version 4.18.1*

I don’t usually write reviews but this app is now a necessity during my workdays because I DO NOT get up from my chair otherwise. Very thankful for whoever made this app <3 worth every penny!!

### 1/5 — Not free

*2026-07-23, version 4.18.1*

Not free. Not interested. It’s a reminder app for Gods sake, put a free version and lock your premium features behind the paywall.

### 1/5 — Bad UI; no way to test

*2026-07-15, version 4.18.1*

Tricks you into thinking it’s free without being able to use it after setting it up. Dark evil ui patterns

### 1/5 — No support

*2026-07-14, version 4.18.1*

Problems working. Not what expected, including no notifications. Then, no guide or support to seek
Help from.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-07-03, version 4.18.1*

Worked once and now won’t open.  The support links to X hence this review

### 1/5 — could not use app

*2026-05-20, version 4.16.0*

Tried to use, would not give me the option to use without subscribing to their Plus version for a fee

### 1/5 — Won't allow login

*2026-05-06, version 4.16.0*

I was using the free trial the first time I used it it was excellent it popped up and blocked the screen and that was really good. the next day it just put a notification at the top of the screen. So I went to login using my password app and it wouldn’t recognise my password. I tried to renew the password and it wouldn't recognise my email I attempted to login with Apple and Google in case I had actually logged in with them I knew I hadn’t
Subscriptions clearly said I had three days of trial remaining because I can't login I can't use it

### 5/5 — Bc

*2026-04-04, version 4.16.0*

This is exactly what I needed. I sit at the desk too much and I don’t move enough. This simple app helps remind me to move more so I don’t stay stagnant!! Must try!!
