As soon as you click it it says connection failed and it’s not syncing to Apple health correctly ### 3/5 — Not worth the free version *2026-06-09, version 0.9.71* Everything needs unlocking so you don’t see much information on the tree plan ### 2/5 — Not a fan *2026-05-02, version 0.9.64* The app is not user friendly. It is all over the place and the points make no sense. I had high hopes. ### 3/5 — Needs work *2025-09-28, version 0.9.36* It’s a cute little app and when it works it’s not half bad but it doesn’t often work properly. Often you will log a workout and it will tell you your percentage for the week is 92% for example, then a few hours later you open up the app and suddenly it’s dropped to 88% for no reason. Not great for motivation to essentially be told you failed the goal when you know you haven’t ### 2/5 — Fun app…but… *2025-07-21* I enjoy the app a lot, but when there is an update and something new is added or taken away, my app never fails to not work properly. Right now, I can’t get past the last week review and start the week pop up screen. Literally just stuck on that screen and can’t go further. Also, when I hit my 40% before the end of Wednesday night, I’m not getting my points for it any longer. ### 2/5 — Fun while it worked *2025-07-07, version 0.9.24* I downloaded this app over a year ago and it worked for a lot of that time. Then it just stopped recording my activity so when I’d go into it at the start of a week, it wouldn’t have recorded anything and would say that I’d missed my target. I went through all the steps to ensure that it was connected to my Apple health data etc and tried to contact the app developer. This itself is difficult to do when everything is done on Discord and I don’t use it - when I did sign up and post a question about the issue I was facing, no one replied. After yet another week of having gone for four runs and being told that I’d missed my target (and lost challenges against friends), I felt so frustrated that I deleted the app. No point in asking for people to pay extra when they can’t get the basics right. ### 4/5 — Really like it but… *2025-06-19* I wish the option to manually put in your workouts was back. Sometimes I forget to wear my watch or even enter it into my health till later and it doesn’t always pick it up in this application. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate your support and understand your concern about manually inputting workouts, this is a decision made due to a lot of people cheating on the platform, which made it unfair and less fun for the masses. If you reach out on Discord or to george@motion-app.com we can help you find a solution for this. ### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS APP!!! *2025-05-20, version 0.9.13* This app is SO MUCH FUN!!! ### 5/5 — Fun app *2025-05-20, version 0.9.13* Love this app! It is encouraging and funny. Developers are always coming up with fun new things to do. ### 5/5 — Great App *2025-05-20, version 0.9.13* This is a great little motivational app. You can compete with friends, and now with the discord channel there’s lots of events and challenges going on to keep you moving! The new Motmots are a great addition too, they’re so cute! ### 5/5 — Love my motmot! *2025-05-12, version 0.9.12* Im in love with the latest update for this fitness game! I play with my mum and a few friends, and have SO much fun keeps each other motivated to hit our goals each week! The things that’s really great, is the way it create you each a personalised score/goal, so I can « compete » with my mum, even though I’m way more active that her, i guess it’s a bit like a handicap, and sort of levels the playing field. Love love love. ### 2/5 — Black Icon didn’t work *2025-05-10, version 0.9.11* Paid the fake money for the black icon and it didn’t change. Not an huge deal but, why bother with it. ### 5/5 — Five stars for an egg *2025-04-22, version 0.9.4* I’ve had this app since its inception. It’s a great community but u do need to pace yourself. Slowly. Otherwise it becomes a bit tough. I’m currently on an egg hunt and thought I’d check here!! Come on George, see how abstract I am. ### 5/5 — Highly recommend *2025-03-24, version 0.8.50* Gets me be more active . Very good app and fun ### 3/5 — Asks for “biological sex” *2025-02-24, version 0.8.44* I downloaded this app to try because the ad interested me, but I was immediately disappointed when one of the first set up questions I was asked was “biological sex.” That term is outdated and inaccurate, and there's no reason to ask trans people to out themselves for your app especially in the current times. There is also no option other than “male and female.” Even if you are going strictly on sex assigned at birth, that is still not going to be accurate for everyone. Intersex people exist! I know that this app is still in beta, so I hope that the developers will see this and fix this issue. If it is resolved, I would love to give it another go, but as a trans person that one question immediately made me feel uncomfortable using the app or sharing my data with its developers. I gave three stars because it makes me give a star rating, and I didn't feel right giving one star when I haven't even used the app and it's still in beta. If someone reaches out to me and fixes this, I will be very happy to you give the app another go and given an honest review based on my experience with it, or simply delete this one! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No support *2025-12-15, version 0.9.47* Does not sync Fitbit calories so their bingo game is worthless given that. They want you to download Discord and chat with community … a discussion board for an array of stuff. Finally found an email address which is apparently unmonitored since no reply after 3 contacts. I’ll be deleting if issue doesn’t correct itself. Glad that I had not asked others to join. Note 10000+ steps = 132 calories according to them while they claim to be syncing with Fitbit…. Not even close. ### 1/5 — No support *2025-12-11* Does not sync Fitbit calories so their bingo game is worthless given that. They want you to download Discord and chat with community … a discussion board for an array of stuff. Why not allow a question to be posted and answered later? I’ll be deleting if issue doesn’t correct itself. Glad that I had not asked others to join. ### 1/5 — Very unfortunate *2025-11-28, version 0.9.45* I was really enjoying the app and the solo bingos. Now I’m unable to play solo bingos due to needing a guest pass. I’ve deleted the app ### 1/5 — Functionality *2025-10-04, version 0.9.37* The App worked fine between IOS and Android in past. After each update, more problems. App won’t open up on IOS now. The delete and reinstall shouldn’t be the fix all. Really wish when responding to customer support they can determine what the issues are in the app. Nice concept but too many bugs. ### 1/5 — Not a fan of the new update *2025-08-30* I’m not a fan of the update. The app is more complex and no longer motivates me to workout. I enjoyed the original version with the original monster - I never got to see what he would look like fully grown. Sorry to say, I Will be deleting the app ### 1/5 — Demands personal phone number to do anything *2025-02-22, version 0.8.44* If you can’t let a user access this without providing their personal phone number, it’s not going to work well for you. ### 1/5 — Just Quit *2024-11-04* Been using this app for quite some time now. All of a sudden it quit tracking. Wouldn’t sync to other apps. Deleted and reinstalled and can’t get past start page. Website down, support down. No help here whatsoever. Very disappointed as I was really enjoying this app with friends. ### 1/5 — Login Problems *2024-11-03* I've had this app for about a year now and recently tried to upgrade to the new version. 1st it stopped keeping track of my movement and wouldn't update the app and now it won't let me log on. I tried to delete the app and re-download and now it won't even let me put any information in. I really liked the app when it worked and I even competed with friends on the app. I started using the apps before my friends, but because it quit recording my movement I got stuck on level 8 while my friends made it to level 11 and now I can't even log in anymore. I can't figure out how to contact customer service, but hopefully if they see this review they'll contact me, so we can get this fixed. ### 1/5 — Bring back points for likes *2024-06-17, version 0.8.20* Bring back points for likes ### 1/5 — Can’t access it *2024-05-17, version 0.8.18* I have now been able to fill something in to give my email to join a waiting list although i was already a member but as i had to reset my phone - trying for weeks to access again - I have sent emails - been ignored - terrible customer service ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Favorite fitness app *2025-12-12* I’ve been a member for about a year.

At first i just joined with 2 of my friends so we could challenge each other but it really got better once i got involved in the discord channel.
