A couple suggestions. First of all, it would be so cool if there was an adjacent squat app or a couple other exercise apps or options that follow the exact same app layout. Actually, it would be better if they’re in the same app because then you could do a certain amount of push-ups and then you’d need to complete your squats or situps or something afterwards? Also, I wish there was a feature that would make you have to do sets of push-ups throughout the day. For example, your apps would lock again in the afternoon and you’d have to do another set to unlock them again. Otherwise five stars it’s amazing. I just hope you guys keep developing it at some point thank you for not making us pay and not bugging us to get the premium feature **Developer response:** Thanks for the review. I will be experimenting with additional locking mechanism in the near future. I can add other exercises but I just have to think about the best way to integrate it into the app so it's not cluttered and still simple to use. ### 5/5 — It’s so good *2026-05-05* Happy I don’t have to pay I actually do pushups now I was a bit out of shape then but I’m feeling good now 5 stars ⭐️ ### 5/5 — Try it *2026-04-29, version 1.1.2* This app helps you get big and strong instead of doom scrolling all day ### 5/5 — It’s good *2026-04-20, version 1.1.2* No money needed it’s good ### 5/5 — Good push up app *2026-04-14, version 1.1.2* I like how it blocks my apps ti keep me sustent on my work ### 5/5 — Holy moly *2026-04-05, version 1.1.2* 5 damn stars wth bro I didn’t expect it to be this strict 😭😭 ### 5/5 — You should buy this now *2026-03-27* Literally made me strong ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — ? *2026-06-24, version 1.2* It doesn’t track my pushups which makes the number go behind the actual number of pushups I did. ### 1/5 — Bun *2026-05-10, version 1.1.2* So I this out for free and it was ugly I don’t do the push-up and it counted it I put my head down it counted it Like I’m not even doing it ### 3/5 — Progress deleted *2026-08-03* I had thousands of recorded push ups and the pro yearly subscription. But it hasn’t even been two months and all of my progress was deleted in the most recent update. It is also asking me to pay again for the subscription. Other than that one thing it has been a great app. **Developer response:** Hi, I recently switched services. The progress wasn't deleted and you don't have to pay again. You just have to click restore at the bottom of the paywall or in the subscription settings in the app. Sorry about the inconvenience. Edit: Update 1.3.3 now saves your data automatically to iCloud. ### 3/5 — Honestly 963 *2026-07-29* The push-up detection needs work. In very well lit rooms it still misses a lot of them. I’ve used several of these apps and this one has the worst push-up detection by far. But, I really do like this app because it is the only app that you can set your daily dosage and everything stays locked till ur done. All the other apps there is too much reward animation and your cashing in push-up points for minutes on instagram. This app is well suited for I just want to hit my goal and move on. **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. I will always be working on improving the vision models. If you would like to be a beta tester for the new model coming soon which I think will be the most accurate please send me an email through the app. ### 3/5 — Annoying *2026-05-31* This app is ok. There is definitely bad things about it tho. It doesn’t count the pushups correctly and barely even count them at all **Developer response:** Sorry about that. I'm adding new vision models soon so you will have many options. You can try the floor model as well which is more accurate for some phones. ### 3/5 — Push up tracker *2026-03-29, version 1.1.1* Push up tracker is not working ### 4/5 — H *2026-07-08, version 1.2* Please add a feature where there is only 1 hour a day screen time instead of lock at what ever time ### 4/5 — Hey just wanted to say I had to delete the app but can you bring me back to violet day 11 *2026-06-30, version 1.2* Please ### 4/5 — Question… *2026-04-22, version 1.1.2* I have a question it is great but if I don’t select the app for the whitelist does it not let me in the push up app ### 4/5 — Good idea, bad execution *2026-04-06, version 1.1.2* It’s a very good idea but when I was doing the pushups, it’s was counting pushups is wasn’t doing ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Cool *2026-08-16, version 1.3.3* It’s a simple app that might make you notice a difference in 50-80 days ### 5/5 — Great game and idea. *2026-08-15* Love the concept of the game and how it’s built.
