### 2/5 — Great work outs, disappointing customer service

*2024-11-20, version 3.7.1*

I used this program for three months and had very good results. After three months, I was satisfied with my results and was going to continue exercising on my own using what I had learned to maintain. I canceled my membership within the app, which was allowed with the monthly membership plan I had selected. At the end of that month, my account was put on hold as it should have been and I no longer had access to the content of the program. Almost one year later I realized apple.com was still charging me for my membership even though I had canceled through the app and no longer had access to the Contant or my account. I Contacted customer support at NKED twice and have heard nothing back. I am really disappointed as I feel this was not my error.

### 3/5 — Great but the app needs work

*2019-11-16, version 1.1.7*

The workouts are great! Absolutely love it. I am serially SO SORE after every workout but the app itself glitches so much. PLEASE FIX it drives me insane! I cannot change to workout at home.

### 3/5 — Love the app but always have problems with it

*2019-09-26, version 1.1.6*

Really good set up but the app closes on me when I click on certain things. I have checked that my app is the latest version and it is.

### 2/5 — Love Caleb’s instruction - app is poor though

*2019-09-16, version 1.1.2*

Valen’s workouts fit what I need perfectly, but the app itself has a few frustrating glitches. The timing (of each exercise) always freezes and then counts down to the next exercise for a few seconds but then clock doesn’t actually count down. It seems to be a glitch. Pretty frustrating when you’re just trying to get the workout done. It also sometimes skips and exercise and I’ll have to back track.
I’d also like to be able to circuit through the exercises instead of doing the same exercise 90 times for example.
I have one request! Can we PLEASE have dual access to the gym and home workout sections without wiping our logged history of workouts? I mostly train at home, but occasionally have access to gym equipment that I’d love to work in using the gym schedule on the app without losing al my data!!! Thanks Valen, you’ve done a great job!

### 3/5 — Good for a beginner

*2019-06-10, version 1.1.2*

I have been following Valen on IG forever and I’ve always loved how shes real (not a ton of makeup, fake lashes, and #1 she doesn’t have fake boobs 😋) such an inspiration to a formal collage athlete.

I got the annual membership at the end of last year, used it for about a month.

For what it is, it’s good. Easy follow along workouts.

Some things I dislike though, the app isn’t very user friendly. It’s difficult to choose a workout and there isn’t an option to make a schedule.

The biggest thing, it’s boring... I’m a former pole vaulter/ gymnast and these workouts are very slow, and extremely simple that for someone like me, they are boring.

There are “options” to make it harder but even then it’s not that fun (disappointing because her workout videos on her IG look great, they arnt the same here)

If you are a beginner looking to learn how to workout, this is probably good for you.

### 3/5 — How do I cancel

*2019-05-17, version 1.1.1*

Every time I click on manage my subscription I get sent to another page where it isn’t clear how to cancel

### 2/5 — Developer issue

*2019-04-04, version 1.1.0*

The workouts and the meal plan and everything within the app is great! But the app itself doesn’t work right. I started this program 4 days ago, and the first day it was working perfectly and now the nutrition, and the workout videos aren’t working.

### 3/5 — No exercise variation

*2019-03-18, version 1.1.0*

I’m on week three using this app and the workouts have been the same every week. I’m getting a little bored and can’t find information online if the routines will change. If they don’t I don’t think it’s worth paying 14 usd a month.

### 3/5 — Great exercises. Low quality developers app crashes often

*2019-03-12, version 1.1.0*

The routine exercises are great! Very well planned week by week along with meal plan recommendations. However; there are a lot of issues with the technical part of this app.   The timer it’s not functioning in all the exercises and other times it runs continuously for an hour at each one of the exercise sets. Other times the instructions doesn’t matches with the videos. The worst part is that the application crashes and you have to uninstall and reinstall the application every time. Right now I have done that process countless times and the app still freezes up and shuts down. When you send a message to the technical support you get an automated reply acknowledging your message and two days later a possible solution that works a few days and then it crashes again. I think that it’s an excellent tool to use for first time gym goers and start having flexibility and to awaken your body for those 50 and over or overweight. You will get motivated for sure and once you reach some flexibility, it would be a great idea to sign up for the personalized program tailored especially for you.
For your information When I have  technical issues with the FitbyValen app, I follow the written instructions and set my own timer because the exercises routines are great and you can see results.
“One star” for Plank 
“Five stars” for Valentina Lequeux

### 4/5 — Amazing result; technical issues

*2019-02-16, version 1.0.9*

I’m finally working out in a way that affects me aesthetically the way I would like! Huge shout out to Valentina for that. Couple points and room for improvement:
1. The app is glitchy and crashes quite often
2. The videos don’t work for me
3. I wish the app was easier to navigate 
4. More comments on form would be wonderful as some of the movements are advanced and I find myself looking up YouTube videos to ensure I don’t hurt myself

### 4/5 — Unable to open

*2019-02-15, version 1.0.9*

Hi, I have had difficulty opening the app yesterday and today. It’s frustrating because I am unable to use the app, help! Otherwise I love this app

### 3/5 — Imposible to cancel subscription

*2019-01-24, version 1.0.6*

I tried the app nothing wrong with it, except the fact that I want to cancel and it’s impossible to cancel the subscription, gives me en error about my email not being the same as the one I’m seeing on the top of my log in 😒, and it doesn’t let me cancel, so I had to pause it, sent an email, still waiting for the response

### 3/5 — Workouts good food not showing up

*2019-01-21, version 1.0.6*

Nutrition is showing as the same daily meal for the next 8 weeks. Would like that fixed...

### 3/5 — No está personalizada

*2019-01-09, version 1.0.6*

Pensé que estaría personalizada pero viene todo muy general.

### 3/5 — Love the workouts but having a few issues with the app.

*2019-01-03, version 1.0.6*

I purchased one month and started using the app the next day. I LOVE the workouts! My biggest issue has been with the app. It will not log my completions or actually let me post anything. Certain areas need some work. It would also be nice to be able to switch between home and gym without losing your progress (if it actually recorded my progress). Sometimes I’m traveling and I not near a gym so it would be nice to have the option to switch to home workout. I would totally give it 5 if not for my couple of issues.

### 2/5 — Big need for improvement

*2018-12-21, version 1.0.5*

Workouts are ok but cannot be in any way customized to your needs or goals, you just take what its there. Poor to no explanation on how to correctly perform the exercises, if you have no experience on the gym you could probably injury yourself following the app without external guidance. Besides the content, the app itself has lots of bugs, doesn’t follow the dates in which you perform the workout, some timers don’t work and crashes happen sometimes during workouts. In general it’s a good start but should be improved.

### 4/5 — Falling in love with the gym all over again!

*2018-12-13*

App runs great! No stupid glitches :) and the program is awesome! I’ve completed the first week so far and my muscles are sore and tired everywhere 😁 it feels good to following this program. It is designed and programmed  to train hard and increase intensity of workouts. The community portion of the app is pretty weak. Questions go unanswered when trying to learn from fitness community. Loving this program and looking forward to the progress through my health & fitness journey! Just missing team atmosphere, comments and feedback. It’s also handy to have an overview of the week and months. Something to put on fridge as daily reminder of what’s up next.

**Developer response:** Sore and tired means you're doing it right! 😉Thanks for your review BJRW7.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very dissatisfied

*2022-11-11, version 3.2.12*

The apps functionality is terrible, the instructor is unbearable.

### 1/5 — Miss the old version

*2022-07-20, version 3.1.12*

The old version was so much better! It was an 8 week program that was so easy to follow and I used it two Years ago and lost 30 lbs, I had been Reusing it recently and all of a sudden it changed and I’m so disappointed! I was so excited to get back in the gym especially after gaining weight from Covid. PLEASE ALLOW THE OLD VERSION BACK!!!!

### 1/5 — Recent purchase of the “challenge”

*2022-07-18, version 3.1.12*

Have not received an email that the challenge app is ready. We start the challenge tomorrow… ended up searching for the app. Not very clear or concise; missing parts of what equipment to use and muscles worked. Nutrition portion states ‘error’ ‘can not be found’

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2019-12-11, version 1.1.7*

I recently purchased a 3 month subscription. The app has been working great for the first week but now it crashes every time I try to open it. How can I get this fixed?

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2019-05-13, version 1.1.1*

Exercises are the same and the app is always having technical issues

### 1/5 — Dysfunctional and can’t cancel

*2019-04-20, version 1.1.1*

Do not download this app. The workouts don’t load and they lock you out of your account so you can’t cancel it. Basically they charge you and make it impossible to contact them or access your account. DO NOT use this app or others associate with Plankk

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2019-02-06, version 1.0.9*

Very basic, exercises aren’t great and can’t really tailor the workout to your own goals. Eg. muscle gain/weight loss.
My honest opinion, I wasted my money as I could have gotten better workout ideas for free from her instagram.

### 1/5 — Hidden cost

*2019-01-29, version 1.0.7*

Doesn’t tell you till after you download and sign up it’s $120 a year :(. Ridonk. Just disclose it up  front.

### 1/5 — msanch17

*2018-10-29, version 1.0.2*

Tried to set up an account but it won’t let me past the terms of use.

### 1/5 — App Issues

*2018-07-20, version 1.0*

I used this app for two days and loved it! The workouts are great. I paid for one month and then I bought the meal plan. Now all of a sudden it won’t let me access the app. It says I do not have a valid app subscription, but when I go to my subscriptions in my ITunes settings it says my subscription is valid for the month. Please fix this ASAP so I can access the app. I will change my review to five stars if this problem is fixed.

### 5/5 — Love the workouts

*2025-11-25, version 3.10.0*

I’ve been doing the nutrition program. And I love it… it changed my body, the way I put together a meal, etc! I started studying sports nutrition based on it! I love it! Thank you so much, Val!

### 5/5 — Clean effective workouts!

*2025-09-30, version 3.9.1*

I have been using this app consistently for about three years.  I love it because there is a video showing proper form for each movement, there is a timer for rests that runs between sets, and there are several programs to choose from.  I have enjoyed finishing a shorter 8 week challenge and then shifting into a 12 week build.  I love that she gives you gym and home options as that has changed over the years.  I also love that while where is some
Variety in programming, she sticks with effective basics and you work at the same program for a few weeks… allowing you to progress in weight.  It’s the only weight lifting app I need!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-11-25, version 3.2.12*

I have been going to the gym for a long time and I know exactly what to do. In my case, this app is great for when I just want to go to the gym and have someone else plan my workouts. I used the follow the FitbyValen plans before so I have 100 percent trust that every workout will be a quality one. Can’t recommend it enough

### 5/5 — Flexible, constant support app!

*2022-10-26, version 3.2.9*

This app rocks. I am able to create my own recipes as a vegetarian, and in line with my goals, not usually an option elsewhere. 
I have constant support and home options since I prefer that to a gym. The 12-week options are just the right length not to feel
overcommitted offered on both their 
SHRED & BUILD programs. And it’s adaptive to my level (not a pro!).

### 5/5 — Love the app & the results!

*2019-06-20, version 1.1.2*

Love this app! I’m doing the home based workouts and whilst simplistic, I’m working out my body not my brain!! I hate workout programs where I have 16 different sets to try remember! The holistic program (diet and workout) really work! After plateauing in my old routine I’ve found a new enthusiasm AND no injuries! And if you do have an issue (I had a slight technical glitch), the support team are fantastic and really helpful! #value for money
Thanks Team Valen!

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2018-12-10, version 1.0.2*

This fitness app is incredible. An exercise everyday with a video to show you the correct form. The meal plans are very easy to follow and very organized; the grocery list makes shopping trips easy and quick. I’ve seen results quickly and I feel stronger!! If you’re considering this app, just get it! You’ll thank yourself later!

### 5/5 — GET GREAT RESULTS!!

*2018-12-03, version 1.0.2*

This app is SO easy to use! I love all the exercises and have already seen positive progress in my strength and shape in 1 month. I like the videos and the workout style. Super effective! Thank you for this!

### 5/5 — Recomendada!!!!

*2018-11-29, version 1.0.2*

Esta aplicacion es increible, la empece a usar hace unas semanas, y ya he visto resultados, el plan de alimentacion es super completo y con muchas opciones, mi parte favorita son los ejercicios de casa que son super creativos!! Super recomendada.
 Gracias val!

### 5/5 — Wish I had this sooner in my fitness career

*2018-11-28, version 1.0.2*

App is super easy to use & does exactly what it’s suppose to do! Personally, as a trainer, I don’t like to have another personal trainer with me all the time. So Val’s app gives me just the right amount of push I need and free space that I like at the same time. The videos are extremely clear and super helpful !

### 5/5 — Awesome program!!!

*2018-11-27, version 1.0.2*

I want to say thank you for responding back! Previous to getting your app, I had signed up with another online coach and once I paid for my supposedly “custom plan” I never heard back. I was so disappointed and lost all the money I paid upfront. I was skeptical trying another online coaching, I follow you and love your workouts and when you announced your app from the beginning I jumped on it! I can’t wait to see some results. I definitely feel the workouts when I’m doing them. I really have to say I love it!!! Keep up your great enthusiasm in helping other women like myself on improving in our health. 🙌🏼🙏🏼😄 Though this is a new app and like everything new, I’m sure there’s a bit of tweaking Val has to do. in order for her to do that we, the ones purchasing her app, have to get on here and give her feedback. Let’s stay positive bcus she is helping many of us improve in our lifestyle so in return let’s help her by giving her some positive feedback on what we think can take her app to the next level. Let’s show her some love! Let me tell you something too, I sent her a message and she replied almost immediately!! I was shocked bcus of my past experience were I dished  out all that money and never once did I hear back from that coach. Keep up your hard work Val!!  😘🙌🏼
