### 5/5 — Great app from training.

*2026-08-14*

Helps me train more intensely.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-07-13*

Great straightforward app, my only reason for not giving a 5/5 is I can't pay to get rid of ads. Other than that it works perfect in the gym.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. Based on your review, an in-app purchase to remove ads has been added in the new version of the app.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-01-01*

This is 12/10 app love it perfect for lifting !! Thank you for making this!!

**Developer response:** I’m glad you like it and thanks for the review. Please reach out if you have any enhancement ideas or other app ideas and I’ll try to make them happen.

### 5/5 — Perfect and simple

*2023-05-01*

This is exactly what i was looking for with no added fluff. Thank you.

### 4/5 — Use it everyday

*2023-03-07*

Love the app although would love for it to work in the background. That would make it perfect

**Developer response:** Version 3.0 will now run in the background. Enjoy!

### 2/5 — Will great app but needs updating

*2022-06-07*

Why does app support on iOS iphone go to Google sites?  Used to wotk great but now stopping spotify so can’t continue to listen to workout music.  Never ised to do this so perhaps a conflict with new apple update?

**Developer response:** Version 3.0 should once again work with music running. Enjoy!

### 5/5 — Good tempo training app!

*2021-12-16*

Helps beginners with keeping the right speed on workout reps

### 5/5 — Does exactly what it needs to.

*2020-01-27*

This app is great. If I could make one suggestion, it would be great if the entire screen would change color as you’re going down or up. I tend to enjoy listening to music while I lift and it would be great if I could have a better visual representation. Then I would be able to have my phone farther away from me while I lift. 

Other than that, this app does exactly what you’d want it to when trying to track your tempo.

**Developer response:** Version 3.0 has the large pause button change color to indicate the phase in the rep. Enjoy!

### 1/5 — Definitely not what I was expecting.

*2017-06-17*

Tempo is odd and the commands don't make any sense.

**Developer response:** What about the commands of "UP", "DOWN", and "HOLD" don't make sense? What about the tempo is odd? You set the time that you want to take to lower the weight, and the time you want to take to raise the weight, you can also add time between for an isometric hold, then the app counts these out for you.

### 2/5 — Does not alwayz work

*2017-01-18*

How do I get it to say UP on a tempo of 4,0,1,1...it just says the last two as hold if the pause at the bottom
is a 0.

**Developer response:** Please update to the latest version of the app. This issue has been resolved.
