User reviews

Fan for years - no longer

Forcing a paid only model without notice and losing all historic data is really poor. End of the line.

“Lifetime Membership” Apparently not 👎

Much like the other recent 1 star reviews left recently… Paid for a ‘lifetime membership’ back in 2018. Went to the gym today to find I can’t access my workouts and have to ‘upgrade’ to a paid monthly subscription. This came without any warning. What an absolute joke. After reading the reviews to see what happened, I just deleted all my data. Time to vibecode my own version!

Used to be good

This used to be a decent app, tracked things well and you could use it. Then they started asking for money and the subscription isn’t worth it - promise of new things, they don’t come. You have to pay for features you aren’t going to use. On top of that - the amount you need to pay doesn’t come close to having the “value” they think it does. Too bad - I really enjoyed it and used to recommend it to people. Now it’s just a money grab.

Absolutely no free plan anymore

Free to download, never free to use, they used to have a free tier, now it is gone and I’m locked out of my years of data, thanks for nothing. Good thing there are plenty of other free apps out there.

Great but could be better

I’ve been using this app for years and love it. I am not aware of any way to make suggestions to features of the app which I think would be wonderful. For example I would suggest the option to mark multiple workouts as “super sets”. I would also appreciate the ability to mark single leg/arm sets as left and right leg/arm. Other than that I’ve had no issues with the app.
