Can’t get logged back in. ### 3/5 — Amazing app—when it works *2026-03-25, version 7.8.7* It’s been a loooong time since I’ve been employed by corporate America and I was pleasantly surprised to find that this one tool used to promote health amongst the workforce was actually…cool? (Albeit in a dorky way) Unfortunately it freezes or otherwise acts up on the regular, or rather the irregular, as I there is no rhyme nor reason as to what precipitates the malfunction. But logging back on is cumbersome, often taking several tries, and there is no indication what may not have been recorded pre-crash. So basically a big YES plus a pretty big BUT. Fix the wonky acting up and you’ve got an evangelist. I mean, between this and Oura, my numbers have demonstrably improved, which is the goal! ### 2/5 — Is this really needed? *2024-05-02, version 5.37.12* I have a reliable Apple Watch and IPhone. I wear a Garmin watch when I train. All that is fine and good. For some reason half the time, I can’t bring up my previous day’s stats. (Though it’s obvious in the Apple Watch ap what I do daily.) I don’t see where this app, extra data collection, not always current or quantitative, is needed with the Sonic Boom program. ### 2/5 — SonicCrap *2022-04-24, version 5.31.0* Monthly it seems like it had issues with syncing. And monthly I email them. I remove the app add it back which works but then it works for a few weeks and once again same issue. And I am using a Fitbit. Yesterday I racked up 23k steps, burn guess what . SB gave me credit for 11k. I rebooted still sane mess. Resynced FitBit and still same. I have recommended our company look at other options ### 1/5 — App NEVER syncs with iOS! *2022-03-19, version 5.30.1* I can’t meet any of my Steps or Contest goals because this app doesn’t sync with my Apple Watch 6. It never has and that’s very disappointing. ### 1/5 — Not syncing *2022-03-15, version 5.30.0* Recent update doesn’t let me sync up. Even before the recent update I always had to log out and in again in order for the app update my daily steps. Now it won’t sync at all. I’ve deleting and reinstalling but it doesn’t do anything. Please fix it soon. ### 1/5 — No support for Apple Watch *2022-03-14, version 5.30.0* This won’t sync with my Apple Watch. Says it’s linked but I have zero steps for the last month. I go to work so I at least have to walk to the bathroom so I should have something and it shows nothing. I’ve updated my phone and the app and still nothing. ### 2/5 — Should be Sonic Bust! *2022-01-25, version 5.2.33* Why do i need to use a mobile app to log and PC to set up trackers? Some people might not have a PC to set up such trackers. Just have the mobile platform be able to do all tasks needed to set up and participate. And having to input your employee id for tasks completed through the app seems redundant since we had to use that id to set up the app. The former company tracking software was much easier to use on the mobile platform and no need for a pc. Please make the mobile app as accessable as much as the pc platform. ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2022-01-16, version 5.2.31* Can't log my steps manually since I take it from the treadmill at the gym, it forces me to buy one of the trackers they use which I won't, wish it worked like virgin pulse app which was way more user friendly ### 1/5 — Inconsistent and barely functions *2022-01-05, version 5.2.31* Doesn’t work well. Seems like it needs a lot more work. Desktop and mobile accounts are not syncing. Can’t track things. It lists contests but there’s nothing to click to complete them. When you do complete them, it doesn’t save it. This is tied to my company and saving money on health insurance. Unacceptable. ### 1/5 — Ranks hosed again *2021-12-01, version 5.2.30* Looking at goals and where you rank each day compared to others. It does not rank correctly, even seems random at times. Says I'm ranked 21, but I'm 8th in steps. Been this way all month and figured it would get fixed someday. Contests and such are worthless if the app can't maintain simple order. Also it seems different devices pull different results or people manipulate the data. Some people show few steps or miles yet burn 10,000 calories. Some of this early. Calories burned vs active calories used by iPhone seems way off. Not comparing apples to apples. Needs a lot of work. ### 1/5 — Hasn’t worked for days *2021-04-19, version 5.1.12* Downloaded days ago and it wasn’t working. Submitted a ticket immediately and still can’t even use the app. Maybe they don’t view inability to use the app as a P1 defect ### 1/5 — Apple Watch keeps on unable to update after Update *2021-01-13, version 5.1.2* Ever since the refresh, my Apple Watch hasn’t been able to sync with the app. And when I disconnected and redos load everything, it works for a few days and then stops. There should be a way to manually refresh the sync like previous version of the app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not recommended *2026-01-26, version 7.8.4* I would never use this app if it wasn’t the official fitness app for the company. ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2026-01-15, version 7.8.3* Half the time the academy lessons are not loading.Dont waste your time ### 1/5 — Needs improvement for trackers *2024-08-05, version 5.37.18* I can’t edit/remove my old tracker. Support says click gear associated with tracker, there is no gear icon with tracker. Tried to add my new Oura Ring to override my old Apple Watch, but Oura isn’t supported yet, so that’s a bust too. ### 1/5 — App requires you open to open it daily if you want credit *2024-04-02, version 5.37.10* You have to open the app daily to get your data to show up on the leaderboards. Which is interesting because the app seems to retroactively grab and apply your data to your personal charts, just not the leaderboards. So it seems this is an issue with how this was built or potential a product direction issue. Maybe it’s an intentional decision to drive up DAU’s. At the end of the day is just creates a pretty poor use experience if you don’t build a habit of opening the app everyday. Which I would bet contributes to employee churn which then eventually leads to Organization (client) churn. ### 1/5 — Way too much messing around *2024-01-21, version 5.37.2* My company moved to this from Virgin Pulse and it’s awful. You get way less rewards from having a fitness tracker synced and performing actual exercise than you from checking boxes, putting in dates etc. I’d take Virgin Pulse back in a heartbeat, I can’t even be bothered jumping through the hoops this app requires. ### 1/5 — Poorly Designed and Non-Functional *2023-12-24, version 5.36.9* Apple watch and Fitbit both have built in capabilities better than this app. It’s only purpose is to sync health data back to employers and it can’t even do that right. Junk app that doesn’t belong on the app store. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2023-06-15, version 5.34.2* My Job uses this and it’s absolutely horrible. Doesn’t track or sync like it’s suppose to. We miss contest and other activities. Bring back Virgin ### 1/5 — Doesn’t sync *2022-11-08, version 5.33.0* Had an old Fitbit Versa worked great. Got a new Apple Watch now it doesn’t sync reliably. Has made me not interested in participating in any SB things my company wants to promote. ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2022-11-06, version 5.33.0* The new update does not allow the Sonic boom app to get any data from Apple health. Did you guys stop supporting iOS devices? What was the point of the update? ### 1/5 — What did you do? *2022-04-02, version 5.30.3* I can’t log in. What did you do?? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good Updates *2026-05-08, version 7.9.1* Noticed updates recently and Garmin integration, daily challenges are fun and keep wellness top of mind. ### 5/5 — So fun! *2023-03-13, version 5.33.12* Love this app! Keeps me motivated to hit my steps every day and is a great way to connect with my coworkers. Really enjoy it and how dedicated they are to constant improvements. ### 5/5 — Love the updates! *2022-02-08, version 5.2.35* The team at Sonic Boom seems to be constantly updating the app to make things better. Even when there is a bug, they are super responsive and really listen to the feedback. I think it’s great for my organization and a fun way to connect with colleagues all over the country. ### 5/5 — Loving the updates! *2021-01-14, version 5.1.2* Thanks for the update! Very appreciative of how closely it mimics the desktop site. Fresh and new for the new year. 🤩🤩 ### 5/5 — Huge improvements with the update! *2021-01-12, version 5.1.2* The updated features and functionality are a huge improvement from the previous version. I can now access the features I need from the app instead of having to go to the mobile site which is extremely convenient. Formatting and overall feel is great. Love it! ### 5/5 — Solid updates *2021-01-12, version 5.1.2* I thought I liked the old app, but this new version is so much better. It looks just like the website, so things are easier to find and track on my computer and my phone. Looking back I guess it was a little annoying to have to use the app for some things and the website for others. Now I can do pretty much everything from my phone. Thank you for updating and adding more features! ### 5/5 — Finally, great on my iPad too!!! *2021-01-11, version 5.1* I use the app mostly on my iPad, and where as before it was just the mobile phone version shrunk down in the middle of my iPad, now sonic boom looks like a normal iPad app. Thanks so much for adding this in! ### 5/5 — Love the update! *2021-01-08, version 5.1* Appreciate the recent update! ### 5/5 — New App is Beautiful! *2021-01-08, version 5.1* The recent updates to the app are so clean and modern. The app now mirrors the website so I know how to navigate. At first, I missed the leaderboard but it was replaced with the rewards page which I greatly prefer! It allows me to stay on track with the activities I need to complete to earn rewards. ### 5/5 — New and improved! *2021-01-08, version 5.1* The old version of the app was limited as far as functionality, but this latest iteration is great because I can now do almost everything I currently do on the desktop site. I personally love being able to track my rewards and goals while on the go - super handy! The Caught Ya feature is still in there, and it’s probably my favorite part of the app because I can interact with my colleagues and we keep each other accountable while working from home. I’m impressed! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
