Not ready for prime time
Tried Using this to get a good idea of vo2 max as alternative to apple watch vo2. The instructions are lacking. You need a heart strap to do 4x4’s and get vo2 for any exercise other than outdoor run. Apple watch app can not be used indoors; strap is needed. Outdoors, The watch app counts off 4 sessions of 4 minute sprints and rest; you can do this without the app using apple workout custom. Benefit of the app is ability to track vo2 max improvement and projected improvement. Support is excellent and very responsive. Seems to have potential but looks like developers stopped midstream. Hope they will continue to improve it. Expensive.

Tried Using this to get a good idea of vo2 max as alternative to apple watch vo2. The instructions are very poor / almost nonexistent. You need a heart strap to do 4x4’s and get vo2 for any exercise other than outdoor run. Apple watch app can not be used indoors; strap is needed. Outdoors, The watch app simply counts off 4 sessions of 4 minute sprints and rest; you can do this without the app using apple workout custom. Certain functions of the app simply do not work and do not update with info. Seems to have potential but looks like developers stopped midstream. Expensive. Do not recommend.

Using this to get a good idea of vo2 max as alternative to apple watch. The instructions are poor. Requires a heart strap for any indoor workout. You can do 4x4 on your own without this.. there is nothing magic here. Pretty disappointed. $6/month is a lot for what this offers. Suggest using apple watch app custom workouts programming 4x4 intervals that you do 2x/week. That way you can use the watch for all workouts without needing a heart strap and keeping the phone next to you. Wish they would improve this app.

Way too pricey
This app was great at first. However, since 2018 GPS tracking stopped working on multiple iPhone models and this renders the app worthless. Developers have not kept up with iOS updates.
Response from developer
Hi Racer and thanks for the feedback. We have thousands users using the app with GPS tracking each month, and we try to keep a good pace updating the app multiple times each month. If you are having an issue with GPS it might be something specific to your account or device or device settings? If you want help solving your problems you can reach out to support@myworkout.com and we will be able to help and troubleshoot your problem directly.
Free version not very useful
After seeing Jan Hoff’s inspirational Ted Talk I was motivated to try his app. Overall I am disappointed that all the best features are only for the premium subscription.
The pros:
- complete and clear explanation on how to do interval training and the free app facilities it well.
The cons:
- the best features are all paid (VO2 max, stats, bio age, and other feedback)
This is clearly stated on the description, so should not have been a surprise - But can’t help feeling disappointed.
