Limited information on exercises
Would not recommend since it contains limited information on WHAT to do for pain. It had a lot of sections mostly talking about ( in videos) a specific muscle and where the muscle is located. Limited exercises. Most topics that appear to be exercises when opened are just discussions on what muscle is where! For example- I have hip pain so I clicked on hip pain topic and no information on exercises for hip pain! There is a mobility section that tell you how to check mobility for different muscles but fails to tell you WHAT to do or what exercises are needed correct any limited mobility. App should have been free imo. You can find these few exercises on YouTube.

Best Stretching App
Simple , easy understandable — and it really works.
First time that I really experience relief for back and neck pain .
Do it — I have thrown out the pills and creams to numb the pain. Amazing, thank you .

No Videos
The links to all of the exercises lead to a blank page. There are no videos. This should not be in the app store.
Needs Audio Cues and Stretches for Both Sides in One Clip
Very informative. Many exercises and instructional videos. The physical therapist really knows her stuff. However, audio cues for starting and stopping all stretches needed. Additionally, movies stretch only one side and need to be replayed to stretch the other side. This should be updated to stretch both sides in one sitting.
Finally, for me, doing the leg stretches really hurt the front of my hips. The exercises state, for example, that for bringing both knees to your chest, your knees should be together. This causes my pain in the front of my hips. If my knees are not together, it doesn't hurt as much. I'd like to see exercises account for this too.

Lack of spoken cues
This is one of the stupidest apps I've ever used. I really wish I could get my money back. Each exercise starts out OK, with an explanation (though you really don't need this every single time), and the voice tells you to start, and a little stopwatch appears. And then, no more voice. You do repetitions of different stretches for specific amounts of time, but apparently they imagine you holding your phone in front of your face the whole time because for some reason, they decided it was not necessary to add voice cues to tell you to stop. I have used many fitness apps, and this is the first one I've seen that requires you to be looking at it while you are exercising. Maybe you could dangle your phone on a string from the ceiling. Yes, that's probably what they had in mind.
