Good but needs improvements
I like the app but improvements need to be made. In the home workouts in the plan I’m doing each set lasts 30s but there’s no break in between each exercise. So I have to keep pausing and going back each time I need to switch weights or prep to the next exercise. There also needs to be a preview of what the next exercise will be. There’s also nowhere to input what kg weight you’ve used! Needs work and it’ll be great

App needs a lot of work
Workouts are great, but usability needs to be improved significantly. App doesn’t allow you to select the individual workout and this NEEDS to change. For example, select a Leg day and you have to do smith machine squats, then cable donkey kicks, then lunges (just example). Like most gyms, mine is busy and if someone is using the smith machine I cannot jump ahead and do a different workout. At least my app doesn’t allow it.
Also, the recipe instructions needs to be much more clear.
For example, one recipe says to combine flour, protein powder, and yogurt. Next step: caramalize apples with maple syrup and cinnamon. Next step: add flour and almond milk… add it to what? The Apples? Cuz if I’m following the order that’s what I would do, right? When I did that it didn’t come out right.
I had this app 2 years ago and I had to cancel because it just wasn’t functional. I tried it again hoping I’d have a better experience. It seems that they have made improvements as the workouts actually load so yay.

Difficult to cancel
App is lacking and Information on website is misleading when it comes to cancellation, as a result I was charged again even though my subscription had ended. Customer service is poor, although they responded. They failed to address my issue and instead gave me very generic answers. Disappointing
Okay but could be great
The workouts on here are fantastic but there needs to be a way to start the work out and select the individual workouts afterwards. It’s impossible to do these exercises in the exact order they are written at a busy gym when people are using the equipment you need 😅
My suggestion would be to make it so you can:
1. Start the work out (have it timed)
2. Then have a screen where you can select the exercise you are going to be working on and hit start
3. Once you “complete” the exercise Then be prompted to enter the weight and reps
4. Then have an option to go back to a screen listing all the exercises to select your next one.

New year challenge is amazing
I joined for the 8 week new year programme after following Stefanie for years and I absolutely love it! I wish I joined sooner and can’t wait for the Netflix programme! It’s so easy to follow and I know exactly what to do in the gym 🙏🏻
The idea is good but needs so changes
I follow Stef on her social media and the idea behind the app is wonderful. She tried to make it really simple so everyone could follow it however, there are some minor things that should be change so they make your experience better.
The workout programmes:
They are good for beginners and intermediates
There is a part where you can find exercises alternatives but not many, however you can write to her on insta and she will reply, I don’t know how she does it but she is there.
When you click start workout the exercises are in a certain order that you cannot change so if you are using one of the apparatus you will need to leave it and come back to it for the next series, not good when you are in a busy gym. I think she should change this in the app so we can do the exercises as we can. The app does it so you can record the series and the weigh but I have to use my notes app on the phone as the app doesn’t allow me to go back to an exercise…so at the end of the workout I need to play the start workout and record the weight by looking at my notes… not convenient and I really hope they change this.
On this note, the videos of her doing the exercises are amazing, I love to be able to see if I’m doing it right or not.
The meals are good, but there are only 7 days per plan and the recipes repeat themselves from one plan to the other. I know that Stefanie likes to eat the same all the time, and I’m a bit like that, but there might be people who would like a bit of change.
To summarise, I got the app on sales but I don’t think it is worth how expensive it is. I probably won’t buy again, unless it improves a lot.
Pros
A good app for beginners who are a bit lost
Great videos
Really good vegan recipes
Stefanie helps if you need it on insta
Cons
Needs refining, being able to organise your exercise as you please within the app so you don’t need to use notes to record the weigh and reps
More variety of foods
More alternative to exercises

Love the app but…
I love the app and use it all the time but when a new plan comes out you have to update the app and it takes forever to have an update which is really annoying other than that I love the app
No free trial and misleading timing for workouts
Paid £9.99 because there was no free trial which is disappointing. After scanning the workouts they show as 30 mins but looking at the number of exercises and sets there’s absolutely no way these would take 30 mins, more like 1hour 30. Hopefully I can find some shorter workouts as this is too long for me.

Great! Except…
I love Stefanie, I’ve watched her since she first started her YouTube channel, so as soon as I could afford to jump on this app, you know I did. The app is awesome in theory, however, I don’t like that when I track the weight on each exercise, it changes the weight to something completely different to what I actually ended up lifting. It makes it nearly impossible to accurately track my progress.

Really great workouts, needs some more UX testing
Love the workouts and use this app frequently.
The content is brilliant. I have grown so much physically and in my gym confidence using it. I’m giving a good rating for that and hope that feedback on the app tech helps with future iterations.
* When doing a workout sometimes the app refreshes in the background losing where you are. I then have to click through a bunch of exercises to get back to my place. A better design would allow workout to be rejoined at specific exercises or pick up where you left off.
* Similarly you can’t see what is ahead on rests etc.
* When clicking through the exercises the 2 minute rest comes up even if you have already completed it. This feels clunky. A skip rest button could help.
* It’s really glitchy and keeps logging you out when you have poor WiFi connection or signal.
* I would appreciate more info about the exercises, cues, tips on form that could be read and reflected on in the rest periods.
* Cant work out how to view exercise rep and weight history to track progress.
Happy to give more feedback if helpful. Thank you Stefanie.

Gym in your pocket
Love this app, it has everything you need for your goals. A few tweaks needed but nothing major like *a few seconds grace between sets as I find myself rushing
* maybe move the counter so you can see how to do the correct form and maybe an indicator to see what your next move is going to be other than that it’s everything I want.
Well done Steph you have smashed it

Hi there, we are glad to hear that you like the app and we have passed your feedback to our developers!
Had so much hope but overall disappointed
I was so excited to try her workout app, but I’ve got to say I’m pretty disappointed. I’ve been spoiled by other home workout programs for sure such as Fitness Blender, Blogilates and Tone It Up. At least downloading the app inspired me to start working out again!! As long as you push yourself to train to exhaustion, then it is a good workout, and I am sore so I definitely appreciate the workouts and the looping videos of the workouts so you at least have an idea as to what to do. My complaints are that one, there are no warm ups or cool downs. Two, there is no time between excercises to switch out weights for the next exercise, nor is there any indication as to which one is coming up next. Also along the same complaint, the break between the three sets of five or so excercises is two minutes long when it should maybe be twenty seconds long. Third she doesn’t have videos of her completing a full set- just loops of her doing between 3 - 4 reps of each excercise. It also says the workouts are thirty minutes long, but they are not even a full twenty minutes in length. It would just be SO much more inspiring if she completed the workout along side of you, provided adequate time to prep for the next set, and provided an actual 30 minute workout with warm ups and cool downs. I do still adore Stefanie for being relatable, vegan/plant based and inspiring as an individual overall! I do hope she looks at this critique and improves her app, because if she did I’d pay $12 per month as opposed to the $10 per month I’m currently paying or better yet pay for the year in advance. Until that happens though, I’m going to go ahead and cancel and go back to my tried and true Fitness Blender’s FB Plus program. It’s not an app but it is still easily accessed from a phone or computer. Hope this is helpful if you’re looking for a more structured workout plan :)

Never felt better!
In the past, i’ve tried using free workouts on Youtube and i’ve also previously been subscribed to a different workout app, but i’ve never been able to keep exercising consistently until I came across this one. I actually feel like i’ve accomplished something after every workout and can see quick progress. 100% recommend! The only thing I would suggest is adding a 5 second gap, or something, in between exercises so that I can grab my equipment without eating into the 30 second countdown.

Love Love Love
Absolutely love this app! Stefanie has brought it all together, providing a wide selection of programs to follow, vegan meals to try, meal plans paired with programs, or if you’re not one for programs you can just pick a random workout for the day. Well designed, user friendly, overall 10/10
