### 4/5 — Could be free

*2026-07-26, version 6.7.0*

Seems like a great app just instead of there being a fee for pro just put a couple of adds in maybe

I think a lot of people would appreciate that ❤️

### 3/5 — Beginner Friendly

*2026-05-24, version 6.6.1*

Would not recommend for experienced guys. You can find ALL of this stuff on YouTube for free. Overpriced but good for beginners

### 3/5 — Has its good points and bad points

*2026-05-23, version 6.6.1*

I’m not sure how this app is managed or maintained tbh. The pros are the extensive library of exercises, various workout programmes and tutorials for calisthenics and other exercises. And it’s clear that Chris is active with the app by posting regular YouTube tutorials and updates. 
But the biggest issue I have is accessibility and user logistics. I wouldn’t say this app is beginner friendly in the slightest. There’s no option to swap out exercises to adapt and workouts hammer the same range of movement you’d risk repetitive strain injury unless you already have some calisthenics conditioning. It operates on a one size fits all approach. I think the best way to tackle this is to allow users to build their own daily workouts from the exercise library and to allow for exercise swaps because doing 6 variations of pull ups with three grip variations for three rounds during one exercise session is excessive and risky.

### 4/5 — Amazing App

*2026-05-13*

I completely love this app. It was a very humbling app in all the right ways. The exercises really teach you that you don’t need an entire gym for an incredible workout and your body is enough! The only reason I gave it four stars is because I really wished that it connected to Apple health. I love seeing all my data in my apple Fitness app and Apple health app and knowing what exercises came where. The exercises really teach you that you don’t need an entire gym for an incredible workout and your body is enough! If you’re someone who has obstacles getting to the gym every day or stay consistent which is ultimately what’s needed to get that dream body, this app really does solve all those problems! Give it a try! Your body will thank you!

### 5/5 — Please add Russian language

*2026-04-28*

App is wonderful

### 3/5 — Minor fixes needed

*2026-04-22, version 6.5.6*

Great workouts but app kinda sucks. The countdowns for exercises takes 15s to start. Also when searching for push or pull or leg workouts it includes all of the fullbody workouts when there is an option for fullbody filter. Simple fixes would go a long way.

### 5/5 — 没有中文吗

*2026-04-13*

看不懂英文

### 5/5 — A whole year

*2026-04-05, version 6.5.5*

I’ve started using this app since last year so it’s been over a year since I’ve used this app and for beginners and advanced calithetics it’s perfect, there is a subscription but that’s optional everything else is free the app is fun and easy to use and ever since last year I’ve been using this app for my workouts daily and the progress you make is insane especially since I’m a teen who has always been skinny however my main draw back is that the app does crash a lot for me and most workouts I find strange but overall great app!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-04-03, version 6.5.5*

The Thenx app is highly effective for home workouts: it offers clear exercises, visual guidance, and well-structured programs that help build strength and body control. Its clean interface and easy progress tracking make it suitable for both beginners and experienced users.

### 3/5 — I love the workouts but the app is terrible

*2026-03-16, version 6.5.5*

The videos are not loading correctly and it’s not a nice experience overall. Previous workouts should be listed on a list not hidden deep within calendar.
The ability to create your own workout would be dope

### 5/5 — Бомба

*2026-03-12, version 6.5.5*

Для минимальных тренировок и поддержания формы достаточно бесплатной версий, а если охото прогрессировать то можно заплатить не очень большую сумму, все очень хорошо расписано и понятно

### 5/5 — Muitooo bom!

*2026-03-07*

Me ajudou a ficar mais forte aprender técnica e é muito bem feito

### 4/5 — Really well constructed workouts.

*2026-03-02, version 6.5.5*

I don’t see how an average person would need more than what this app offers. Even just the free stuff combined with some personal research will work well.

### 1/5 — Tolle Übungen - App Steuerung ist eine Katastrophe

*2026-07-22, version 6.7.0*

Die Übungen sind toll. Leider ist es nicht möglich die Trainingstage individuell zu wählen. Auch war der Start eines Programms nicht möglich. Es wurde dann nur jeden Tag das Daily workout angezeigt.

### 1/5 — Lame

*2026-05-28, version 6.6.1*

Tried to make an account, every time I had to try a new username it would then alert me that my email was already being used even though that’s BS. Tried three different emails and it didn’t work, had to delete the app before even trying. Zero stars

### 1/5 — Unusable without equipment

*2026-05-27, version 6.6.1*

Almost all of the workouts require equipment so if you don’t have equipment definitely don’t get the app. If you do it’s probably 3 star, still look for something else

### 1/5 — Gute Programme aber

*2026-05-23, version 6.6.1*

In der App gibt es gute Programme aber es steht überall dran das mein kein Equipment braucht man braucht aber super viel Equipment und es wird sehr oft der eigene Shop in erklärvideos erwähnt

### 1/5 — Won’t let me delete my workouts

*2026-04-12, version 6.5.6*

Wont let me delete my workouts, try to delete th acc myself, but it said it doesn’t work. 1 star.

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2026-03-13, version 6.5.5*

The app is confusing. Workouts supposedly have beginner movements but they do not show them in the programs. Contacted technical support twice and no answer. Waste of my money

### 1/5 — Please, Español

*2026-03-01, version 6.5.5*

Excelente app pero me gustaría también disponibilidad in Spanish. 
Soy de México

### 1/5 — Anmeldung scheitert

*2026-02-21, version 6.5.5*

Die App hängt sich leider immer wieder auf, wenn ich mich abschließend registrieren will.. Schade !

### 1/5 — No tiene idioma en español 😡😡😡

*2026-02-11, version 6.5.5*

Tantos años y aún no han sacado el idioma en español, hay mucho público de habla hispana y aún no se han tomado la tarea de traducir su app. 👎👎

### 1/5 — Not needed

*2025-12-06, version 6.5.3*

The app is not needed. It does not allow you to follow anything, just go watch youtube videos and save your money for nutritients

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-08-23, version 6.7.0*

I love this app because it’s like a free personal trainer for calisthenics and its fun to see yours and others transform into calisthenics beasts I’m just one day in and I arleady love it my account is Antonioand alistenocs

### 5/5 — Highly recommend

*2026-08-17, version 6.7.0*

I’m a recovery pot head of 6 years I’m 21 years of age and I stopped working out 7 years ago I found Thenx a year ago and finally started to use it a week ago if your looking to get back in shape and heal your body from all the bad stuff you’ve put in your body and just to get back in shape I HIGHLY RECOMMEND using this app it’s totally free no money needed and no weights or equipment needed all you need is your mind and your drive to push through to get to that finish line your looking for don’t give up stay on schedule with the app it will be the best decision of your life it will suck it will hurt but if your not hurting or in pain then what are you doing to improve yourself get up and get after it yours truly recovery pothead 🤟🏼

### 5/5 — Great Workout App

*2026-08-07, version 6.7.0*

This is very comprehensive full body workout app. Providing you with daily challenging workouts that enjoy it.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-07-29, version 6.7.0*

It’s a really good app for beginners… I will say you can’t do all of the exercises in the workouts if you don’t have equipment so that’s a down side but it’s just a really good app I recommend it

### 5/5 — Absolutely Love It!

*2026-07-23, version 6.7.0*

I absolutely love this app, and I’m so glad I decided to give it a try. The only thing I feel is missing is the music player that used to be built into the app. I really loved that feature. Other than that, it’s an easy 5 stars from me!

### 5/5 — This is the best

*2026-07-02, version 6.7.0*

I starter from doing 1 million to 20 trillion push ups in a row 
 push

### 5/5 — This is nice

*2026-06-28, version 6.7.0*

I’m now jacked

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-06-03, version 6.6.1*

This app has been the best ever. I can dial in all the right muscle groups. I can do an intense workout when I want and a dialed back workout when I want. Thank you Chris and Then-x team. This one rocks.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-05-29, version 6.6.1*

So I use this app a few times a week & just think it’s great. I feel as if I know/ have got to know a handful of people thought just following & commenting/ supporting each other’s progress - at the same time as it not becoming social media. 

Workouts are great & varied with a few different ways to interact with them - follow along Vid style - timed workouts- week by week programs (I think if you have premium). 

Only negative thing I have to say is, occasionally it gets a tiny bit glitchy but I just restart the app & off we go. 
But I stand by the 5 stars

### 5/5 — Actually worked!!!!

*2026-05-24, version 6.6.1*

This actually helps me I got a six pack in about three months. This helped me out so much. It made me feel more comfortable with myself. This helped me so much. You should try it. Great app Thenx is a great app
