Insulting business model

Offering two subscription plans, one EXTREMELY weekly expensive plan to push the user to buy a (still expensive) annual plan is spitting on the user’s face.

Best App for Norwegian 4x4

This is by far the best app for doing the Norwegian 4x4 training. The alerts help to let you know how much time is left and it works flawlessly.

Best Norwegian 4x4 app with incredible dev support!

I downloaded a half dozen 4x4 apps and this one was definitely the best, but it was missing the ability to start the intervals at less than 1 minute (worried I’d give myself a heart attack lol), and he replied almost immediately and implemented the change the next day! Incredible!

It finally works!

Just redownloaded the app and it now gets heart rate info and the workout automatically began on my watch. Impressive.
