I can’t even get through 10 seconds of music without being forced back to an ad. **Developer response:** Hey There! We're sorry this was your experience! This app is designed for OTF studios and trainers. If you would like to check out the same mixes on FITRADIO, we offer a free trial while you decide if the app is a fit for you! If you have any additional questions, please reach out to team@fitradio.com. ### 1/5 — Music Tempo *2023-10-23* Wish there was the option to increase or decrease the tempo of the playlists as the music is playing. This would enhance the experience of making the tempo/energy higher at parts of the workout that need more than what the playlist of offering at the set tempo. **Developer response:** Hey there, thanks for the feedback! Due to agreements with major record labels, we cannot allow the tempo to be adjusted in the app. If you have a mix request, we recommend reaching out to our team at team@fitradio.com! ### 4/5 — Add to favs is slowwww *2026-01-26* New update with personal playlists is great, but would be nice to add to favs without specifically adding to someone’s. it also loads extremely slow to add to personal ones making it all take too long. ### 4/5 — Great overall *2024-10-21* Love the variety and search ability but if you accidentally exit out of the playlist, you can’t find it again without making it a favorite. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear you love the variety and searchability in our app—it’s something we work hard to provide. We understand how frustrating it can be to lose a playlist if you accidentally exit out. Your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we'll share it with our development team to explore ways to improve this experience. In the meantime, favoriting playlists is a great workaround to keep them handy. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts, and we hope to continue making your listening experience even better! ### 5/5 — Exceptional playlists! *2024-10-10* These playlists really get me going!

Happy listening and crushing those goals! 💥 ### 5/5 — I can’t listen to anything else! *2024-10-10* My workouts wouldn’t be the same without these FITRADIO mixes. Trust me, I tried and it just takes too much work to figure out what works, doesn’t result in the same performance level and to top it off trying to duplicate that for the rest of my life (not happening) Glad someone out there gets it and is providing it for me! ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2024-10-10* Couldn’t be happier with the music provided from this app! It makes all the difference when I’m working out and really helps me stay focused and motivated. I wouldn’t be able to get through it without the music! ### 5/5 — So much time saved! *2024-10-10* I love that the mixes are predesigned and ready to go! I don’t have to waste time making fresh playlist. They’re already there and constantly updated! ### 5/5 — The best fitness music app in the game! *2024-10-08* The only gym music that gets me in the Orange! 🧡 ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great high energy music! *2024-09-30* The music is so great in orangetheory classes.

Why would I pay $40 a month for music? I really really like the concept of this but I’m already paying for OTF. There should be a free version for paying members or something. Or at least affordable. **Developer response:** Hi! We appreciate your feedback! While our PRO tier is designed for fitness professionals and studios, we do offer an individual tier for $7.99/month for personal use. You can check it out at www.fitradio.com. We’d love for you to keep enjoying FITRADIO! Let us know if you have any questions. Thank you! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
