I was hoping for some more coaching around loosing weight. I set a weight goal when I started the app but every week I do the body scan the AI bot increases my calories and protein. I’ve lost 5 pounds in the first month but haven’t been able to drop weight in the past two months. I wanted to loose 15 to be at a “healthy weight”. When I asked the bot about my weight goal it said it was to make steady sustainable progress. I paid for a year but would not renew. Also the app is very glitchy. I have issues with almost every function and have to close and re open the app all the time to get it to work. ### 2/5 — Results off by 9% *2026-01-07, version 1.11.0* Excellent idea but didn’t work for me. I’ve been running and working out for ~18 years but from an InBody days before using Spren my body fat was 28% (trending downward with lifestyle). Spren gave me 37% and said I did not qualify for athlete mode because athletes have body fat in the teens. I believe healthy body fat for women goes up to 24%. Excellent idea but I’m sticking to the free InBody at my local GNC. Love Elite HRV by the same team though! ### 4/5 — Spren App *2025-12-01, version 1.9.1* Love this app! The body scanner is awesome. My only improvement recommendations are for the nutrition section. It would be helpful if you could get meal summaries as well as the running log of food you eat. Another useful feature would be if you could get daily totals for your micronutrients as well. ### 2/5 — Trying out *2025-08-10, version 1.4.25* 7 day trial and it takes forever to load, meals are not labeled. Evidently I’m missing something. ### 2/5 — It may work great, but too many questions to even just try it. *2025-05-15, version 1.4.17* During the signup process they ask a ton of questions that really turned me off to even trying the app. ### 2/5 — No longer free stuff, dissapointed *2025-05-12, version 1.4.15* This app made me happy at first. Comparable to a dexa scan with less than 3% variability? Wow! I used it a few times but now it wants $200 yearly or $100 quarterly. I never really got to use it properly so its a hard pass. Hopefully the technology improves over time and this is more accessible but as of now I think I will pass up. ### 2/5 — mixed trust *2025-03-01, version 1.4.11* I don’t know if I can trust this app. i have been scanning for 2 months. i dropped 15 lbs and built visual muscle. my pants dropped 5 sizes. and spren still think i’m the exact same BF. i’ve leaned down a bunch and it is stuck on 20%. abs are visible. so my guess is it’s pretty wrong ### 5/5 — Extremely accurate *2024-09-28, version 1.4.3* I used Spren within a week of completing a DEXA scan and found the results were within .5%! I’m incredibly impressed! ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2024-09-15, version 1.4.3* So far so good. Used it three times in three different rooms all with different lighting and the results were all very consistent. ### 1/5 — Body fat is so off *2024-08-29, version 1.4.3* I did my scan and got a result telling me I’m 33% body fat. Very off! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Deceptive *2026-08-20, version 1.13.3* This app uses dark patterns (deceptive designs). It uses the sunk cost fallacy to bait and switch users into hidden costs. It also uses data trapping to generate a report on you that they sell to data brokers. They market this app “free” without mentioning it provides nothing without a subscription. Do not download this app. It should be reported to the FTC as deceptive practice. ### 1/5 — Broken Signup *2026-01-23, version 1.11.0* The sign up process forces you to provide a phone number, which is unreasonable. It sends an OTP to your email as well, but the process just goes in a loop and the code is always rejected. I don’t know how any modern app developer could get a signup journey wrong in 2026. ### 1/5 — Body fat is not accurate *2025-07-28, version 1.4.24* I’m in single digit body fat, because I have visible abs & extreme muscle separation. I’m a fitness coach, and I track everything I eat. The app says I have 17.5% bf, which is about 8% off. Easy uninstall. ### 1/5 — AWFUL *2025-06-30, version 1.4.21* Can’t even open the app. It forces you to sign up with their coaches, you can’t just create an account and use the app ### 1/5 — I can’t sign up lol *2025-06-28, version 1.4.21* So I really wanted to try this… however I've tried numerous times to sign up and it keeps saying “sorry something went wrong” no matter how many times I try. ### 1/5 — AWFUL *2025-06-27, version 1.4.21* CANT EVEN SIGN IN, AWFUL AWFUL APP, DO NOT RECOMMEND ### 1/5 — Body scan doesn’t work *2025-05-03, version 1.4.14* I tried four different rooms in my house and this body scan will not work. Can’t do anything on the app until the body scan is completed ### 1/5 — Problems *2025-05-03, version 1.4.14* I can’t get the app to continue half the time signing up. Can’t get a code sent before time runs out to my number. I use IPhone 15 plus. If you fix I will update review. ### 1/5 — Defectuosa *2025-01-09* No me deja ni iniciar sesión **Developer response:** Please reach out to our team at getsupport@spren.com, thank you ### 1/5 — Bodyscan doesnt work, great job guys… *2024-11-02* Look above **Developer response:** Please reach out to our team at getsupport@spren.com so we can assist you. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Had a proper body scan done *2025-10-01, version 1.5.0* The spren results were Miles away told the Ai and it just said they would expect a small difference it was about 10% in body fat so I just deleted the app ### 5/5 — Love! *2025-08-05, version 1.4.24* I’ve been using this app consistently for about 5 months and love everything about it. What I love the most is their customer support. They’re prompt and thorough. I think it’s definitely worth the price for what you get. Especially considering the cost of a DEXA scan. The AI coach is a great experience too providing custom workouts and answering any questions. Keep up the great work! ### 5/5 — Accuracy *2025-03-07, version 1.4.11* Wow! I’m impressed with the accuracy of the scan! ### 5/5 — Avaliação fisica *2025-02-02* 10 **Developer response:** Thank you for your wonderful five-star review, we appreciate you! ### 5/5 — Tracking my progress *2025-01-14, version 1.4.8* Easy to operate and motivating ### 5/5 — impressed *2024-11-18* incredible app **Developer response:** Thank you for your fantastic 5-star review! We’re thrilled to hear that you find our app impressive and incredible. Your support means a lot to us! ### 5/5 — Seems accurate *2024-11-09, version 1.4.4* Within 2% of my Dexascan results which is quite good. Easy to use and provides good information. ### 5/5 — awesome *2024-11-06, version 1.4.4* was easy to use! It talks you through the scan. ### 5/5 — Body scan *2024-11-01, version 1.4.4* Great, my neighbors daughter came over to help me ### 5/5 — VERY ACCURATE *2024-10-02* I compared the results with Spren and it is within 1% body fat. This app is great, very accurate people need to stop leaving reviews because they are mad at the accuracy of the app trust the results and work on yourselves don’t lie to yourselves with your own delusional body fat estimate of yourself **Developer response:** Thank you for your absolutely fantastic 5-Star app review and being part of the Spren family. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
