### 3/5 — Timer between sets not working

*2026-06-23, version 5.0.5*

Timer between sets not working  -  please fix.

### 3/5 — I like the new version but

*2026-06-21, version 5.0.4*

I like the new version, but the touchscreen is not working perfectly. I often have to tap multiple times before it registers that I want to move to the next workout. Also, when I try to press the small arrow to go to the next workout, the “Enter Reps and Weight” option sometimes appears instead.

### 3/5 — Hopefully it’ll be fixed

*2026-06-17, version 5.0.3*

Love this app I recommend it all the time but the new update is “no bueno.” No matter if I plan something it shows everyday is a rest day. The calendar shows a different workout than I chose. They change the weekly read so you can’t look at the prior days which I used to do all the time if I couldn’t get a workout in or missed a specific workout because I was at home and not the gym. Now I have to go in and Rachelle the entire workout or screenshot it because it disappears.
Assume the scheduled workout issue will be fixed because I don’t look like the only person with the issue.

### 2/5 — Price tripled within a year

*2026-06-08, version 5.0.0*

I used Strng app for a little over two years. The app is okay overall. The workout structure and functions are thoughtfully designed even though it was quite buggy.  

The recipes are very basic and probably only work if flavor balance and texture are not priorities.

I originally paid £59.90. After taking a break (3-4 months) I came back to a redesigned app with not many useful new features and the new price of £179.99. Tripling the price is how you lose your loyal customers.

### 5/5 — Issue with APP Challenge

*2026-04-20, version 4.1.0*

Thank you so much for your prompt response to my issue and quick resolution so helpful.

### 5/5 — Results

*2026-04-09, version 4.1.0*

Great app with excellent customer support. I’ve tried other apps and training programs, but STRNG has delivered the best results.

### 5/5 — The best app & support team

*2026-03-08, version 4.0.8*

Absolutely blown away by the support from the team . From the amazing work outs to the beautiful helpers at the other end of the support line - so fast and efficient with there work . I honestly cannot rate them enough

### 5/5 — No free week

*2026-03-03*

I was under the impression there was a free week to try STRNG if you bought the year long subscription. Well there is no free week and they bill you for the entire year right away… wasn’t super impressed…

**Developer response:** Hi there,wWe are so sorry for the frustration and confusion regarding the free trial! Sometimes trial eligibility can vary depending on previous app downloads or how the plan was selected at checkout, but we definitely want to make this right.

Please email us directly at hello@strngofficial.com so our support team can pull up your account, investigate the billing, and help you get this sorted out right away.

### 5/5 — Приложение

*2026-01-31*

Прекрасное приложение! Использую уже год и по индивидуальному плану, и как отдельные дополнительные тренировки, очень вдохновляют тренеры, молодцы! Но хотелось бы русскоязычной версии, добавьте, чтобы можно было бы использовать приложение на все 100% и без ограничений!

**Developer response:** Hi Serg, thank you so much for the wonderful review and for training with us for a whole year! We are thrilled to hear that you are loving the plans and finding the trainers so inspiring.

We also really appreciate your feedback regarding a Russian-language version. We completely understand how helpful that would be so you can use the app to its absolute fullest, and we have passed your request directly to our development team to consider for future updates!

Keep up the great work! 💪

### 5/5 — Much better now

*2026-01-21, version 3.4.8*

I was having problems with the app not saving my progress, the STRNG app team got on it right away and fixed all of the issues. I can now pause my workout and continue later without losing my progress. Very excited to continue using this app.

### 5/5 — What an amazing App!

*2026-01-15, version 3.4.8*

This app is of great help with my fitness journey. Thank you!

### 2/5 — Do not subscribe!

*2026-01-12, version 3.4.8*

You will be auto-renewed every year without notice and they won’t reimburse you after you’re charged without remembering you subscribed.

### 4/5 — Great App!

*2026-01-09, version 3.4.8*

I love using the STRNG app so far. It’s super helpful that there are videos to follow for each workout and the programs have been straight forward and great for consistency. I don’t get bored with long drawn out sets, each workout program is about 45 min to an hour long which feels perfect to feel progress while not being tedious. I’ll continue using the app as I work towards my fitness goals. The only reason I don’t give it 5 stars is because sometimes it somehow says I skipped a workout segment though I’ve gone through all the routines and I can’t seem to adjust once the workout is marked “finished”

### 5/5 — Amazing customer service

*2026-01-09, version 3.4.8*

Big shout out to Nona who was of great assistance in setting up the discounted annual trial. Speedy responses and incredibly warm. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2026-01-08, version 3.4.8*

I have had this app for over a year now and absolutely love it. They’ve made a lot of updates since I started using it and I do not experience any glitches anymore. I see a lot of reviews complain about that but I have no idea what they are talking about. I use it 5x a week and it never gives me issues. I had always been an at home gym person but decided to join a gym finally. I had a lot of fear about it but this app gave me so much confidence in myself and made it such a smooth transition for me. 
Only addition I’d love to see for this app is stretching and mobility workouts for rest days. I’d also like it if you could swap your workout move even after you started it. And if it would save that choice for the next time you do the workout. 
But otherwise, this app is a game changer for me. 🙌🏼

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Workouts not backed by research

*2026-08-13, version 5.1.4*

All posing and marketing with no science behind workouts

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2026-07-05, version 5.0.5*

I really wanted to like this app, but it's been a frustrating experience. It frequently glitches during workouts, often freezes or lags, and many of my completed workouts aren't recorded properly. Tracking progress is one of the main reasons I use the app, so it's disappointing when my workouts disappear or fail to save. On top of the technical issues, it has been difficult to get timely support. For the price of the subscription, I expected a much more reliable experience. I hope these issues are addressed soon because the app has a lot of potential.

### 1/5 — Stopped working like it used to

*2026-06-15, version 5.0.2*

Dates are all wrong. Completely messed up a 12 eeek program I was in the middle of. Trying to schedule a new 3 days plan and workouts display for 2 days a week. And that’s only if I click on the calendar button.  Every day says it’s a rest day. Completely frustrated.

### 1/5 — Too slow, it crashes and poor costumer service

*2026-02-16, version 4.0.4*

Costumer service is igniting me avoiding to provide my personal data. The app is too slow, it crashes, first not save the reps… disappointing.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-01-01*

I really wish I had read the reviews before paying. Marking a workout complete has far too many steps it’s ridiculous- it times you through each individual set, rest, unilateral movement etc and you have to click next after literally each set and rest of EVERY exercise. I don’t want to be on my phone literally every second of the workout, I just want to be given a plan to follow and mark it complete at the end.
Also for whatever reason it’s set to UK time so for example even though it’s a Thursday where I live it doesn’t show me a Thursday workout… beyond ridiculous. Massive FAIL and I’m so disappointed in Lisa.

**Developer response:** Hi there, we appreciate your feedback and are sincerely sorry for the frustration. We want to let you know that the time zone issue is now completely fixed, so your workout plan will always match your local calendar day.

While we don't have the option to manually mark a whole workout as DONE with one click, you can actually look at the sequence of your workout on your app and log your reps and weights in advance now! Just click on the "i" icon on the workout overview screen to preview the structure and log your sets more quickly.

We are constantly working to streamline the user experience for our training programs, and we have shared your feedback directly with our development team.

### 1/5 — Mega enttäuscht

*2025-12-27*

Habe bezahlt für die App, aber nichts ist freigeschalten.
Trotz E-Mail Kontakt, wo mir versprochen wurde, dass alles freigeschaltet wird, geschah gar nix.
Das Einzige, was man mir mitteilte, dass es im Januar abläuft.
Seitdem wird auf meine Nachricht nicht mehr reagiert.
Schade, aber da gibt's bessere Apps

**Developer response:** Hi Jedde, we are so sorry for the frustration and for the breakdown in communication regarding your account! This is definitely not the experience we want you to have on our fitness app, and we want to resolve this immediately.

Please contact us to help you with your access. Send an email to our team at hello@strngofficial.com and please mention you were from the reviews so we can fast-track your ticket. Our CS team will be happy to look into this, verify your purchase, and ensure your workout plans are completely unlocked right away.

### 1/5 — Update: Change is STILL NOT the answer.

*2025-12-07, version 3.4.6*

I started using Strong and Sexy a couple years ago and was absolutely in love with it. The app worked perfectly, I had zero issues and lost over 60lbs. I was thrilled. I was also thrilled because a “new and improved” app was announced. Well, it’s here and it’s very disappointing. It constantly shuts down, doesn’t save work, won’t save the workout at the end, doesn’t register or save swaps. It’s wildly frustrating. I honestly wish they would go back. I’ve submitted tickets and the only solution offered seems to be “make sure it’s updated” or “reinstall” which I’ve done and nothing changes. Customer service needs to report the issues to Lisa and Romaine so they can actually do something about it. I remember Lisa responding to my insta messages years ago when I had issues and she was all over it. Now I feel like they aren’t told when there are significant issues like these. Sucks because they are great at what they do but don’t have the app to represent it like the old one.

### 1/5 — Well, read on…

*2025-11-13, version 3.4.6*

Subscrption renewed for £90 at anniversary. As soon as I noticed, on same day, I attempted to contact the business to kindly request a cancellation or a deferment, as I had had a ski injury some time earlier, and so I couldn’t work out any more. The email alI attempted to send bounced back and there was absolutely no way of contacting them. How would you feel if that happened to you. I feel ripped off.

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2025-10-06, version 3.4.0*

I have always had minor glitches with the app.  It automatically renewed this September and it worked maybe 2 weeks they updated the app now its not working at all

### 1/5 — Subscription

*2025-09-08, version 3.3.3*

Unless you want to keep getting charged make sure you take a note of renewal date because they do NOT remind its up for renewal making it difficult to make a decision if you want to continue…and a full refund is not an option even though an hour after they took my money with no warning they would not refund me! Im so upset..and will now unfollow! I just don’t understand how this is possible!

### 5/5 — Just joined and I love it!

*2026-08-08*

This is such a great platform! I love that it offers impactful, effective at-home workouts. I genuinely feel the sweat and muscle soreness I expect after a good workout, which tells me I’m getting the most out of every session. I’m so glad I joined! And not to mention, the customer service is friendly, responsive and super helpful (thanks Nona!). Highly recommend 💪🏽✨

### 5/5 — Love love Love

*2026-07-29*

Damals mein Gym-Game mit der App gestartet. Ich war eine absolute Anfängerin und danach ein Pro. Alles super erklärt und veranschaulicht! Die App ist eine 12/10! Absolute Empfehlung!

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihre positive Bewertung der Strong & Sxy Fitness-App, die sehr geschätzt wird. Wir freuen uns sehr, dass es Ihnen gefällt! Arbeite weiter hart. Danke, Lisa & das Team xx

### 5/5 — Excellent app to boost your workouts!

*2026-07-17*

The app is very well designed, offering a variety of training options. The technical support is very responsive and reliable!

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2026-07-15, version 5.1.0*

I have found this app so useful and structured. I really struggled before with trying to work out what I am supposed to do at the gym and how to do exercises . It has boosted my confidence massively, due to the structured plan. It has so much diversity also.

I have had quite a few questions recently and one thing that stands out the most is the customer service! So prompt and helpful , I have never had a question left unanswered.

### 5/5 — Amazing App and Great Customer Service

*2026-07-06, version 5.0.6*

The app has everything you need in one place. Very easy to use, to update personal information or make changes to your goals. 
Moreover I am very impressed with the customer service. Very helpful, quick response to my query and resolved my issue within hours. Thank you for your help Nona!

### 5/5 — Highly recommend

*2026-07-06, version 5.0.6*

Honestly one of the best decisions I have made. From complete beginner to expert. Everything is there for you. I love all the videos and swaps.

### 5/5 — Как оплатить доступ из РФ

*2026-05-11*

Приложение классное, пользуюсь уже года 3, наверно, если не больше только им. Сейчас заканчивается годовая подписка и теперь не знаю, как продлить? Как оплатить? Оплата из РФ не проходит ( 
Неужели придется попрощаться с приложением? 😢

**Developer response:** Hi Aleya, thank you so much for being a loyal user of our fitness app for over 3 years! We are thrilled that you love training with us, and we definitely do not want you to say goodbye.

We completely understand how frustrating the current payment restrictions from the Russian Federation are. Since App Store billing limitations are often outside of our control, please email our customer support team directly at hello@strngofficial.com. They will happily look into your account and see if there are any alternative options or workarounds to keep your workout plans active! 💪

### 5/5 — Great customer service

*2026-05-04, version 4.1.0*

I really like using the app and their customer service is top-notch. I had an issue I messaged them and in less than 24 hours they were able to fix the issue. They are also very kind.

### 5/5 — App/customer service

*2026-04-21, version 4.1.0*

Such a brilliant app, there is so much choice to choose from with the plans/workouts/exercises and meals.
The customer service has been great too. I would definitely recommend this app ti family and friends
