I have been using this app fire several months now and love it! I started using it for SS, and then switched over to my own 4 day a week program. It works great for both. Love the plate calculator. I just recently switched from Android to iOS, and exporting my program from the Android app too iOS could not have been easier. Thanks for the excellent work!
