### 3/5 — Don’t respond to request for help

*2025-02-04, version 14.1*

I logged in to update my clients workouts but to my surprise all my clients weren’t there. I am still receiving updates from my clients because they still have access to their workouts but I dont have access to them for updates. I have reached out twice in 3 days trying to get help. Unfortunately No luck.  I am hopeful to hear something soon but will be looking for another personal trainer app. I cant have an app that doesn’t allow me to do my job

### 3/5 — 2 year customer

*2024-06-22, version 13.5*

As a CPT I purchased  TFU.  I had it for two years  my clients used it 
It was included w the the fee with me  to unsure I had a way to follow and track.  Love that you can add videos of yourself doing exercises or anyone to the app.  The tracking is good provides graphs or data.  It’s easy to create a plans and update plans.  It’s easy to l arm to use as well and it offered forms for hiring clients free of charge.  You could even edit forms add your own logo etc  Aldo you can avg other trainers and their client's as well and charge a fee.  Yiu will have to pay more fur the app so it’s worth it  
I didn’t like that it didn’t offer meal planning.  I also cancelled my membership because of lack of support.  I had an issue where the all stoped sending my clients an email to accept the app.

When I contact mani, the response was anything but helpful.  So I cancelled my clients didn’t seem to mind either.  I’ll try a new app that offers meal planning next .  

I wound have given 4 stars but the lack of support was very disappointing.

### 3/5 — Improve bugs and glitches please

*2023-04-16, version 12.2*

I like the concept of the app but as i’m trying to create workout plans some descriptions don’t save and it is very time consuming please fix then this app is a 5 star app

### 2/5 — The Email

*2023-02-27, version 12.2*

No matter how many times I sent my clients the email, they never received it. If this problem could be fixed then I would keep the app,but unfortunately I had to let it go.

### 4/5 — Logging

*2023-02-21, version 12.2*

Having difficulty localising my exercise

### 4/5 — Very solid app, minor QOL improvements exist

*2022-10-25, version 11.5*

Love this app!! Works amazing fundamentally. Super glad my trainer uses this app with me. 

My critique: music pauses when using the TrainerFu timer in app on IPhone. Music will not resume unless you open your music app. And click play. Same occurs when watching in-app TrainerFu videos.

### 4/5 — Learning curve on editing & saving workouts

*2021-12-07, version 11.5*

Somewhat confusing to edit whole workouts vs individual exercises, but it seems to be making sense with practice.

Also sometimes I will finish workouts and hit save multiple times, only to find the workout never makes it into my feed or progress. It doesn’t get saved for some reason. :/

### 4/5 — Really great app, however…

*2021-08-01, version 9.9*

I would really love to see an application where you can assign macros and calories to your client in the same way that Trainerize does. Otherwise, great app!

### 3/5 — It’s good but needs added trainer alerts

*2021-01-12, version 9.7*

I’ve Been using this app for a while and it’s pretty good except for the fact that if a client messages me or finishes a workout in the app It doesn’t send me a notification on my phone so I don’t see their question or workout notification unless I open the app. This is a huge issue. Pleeeeease add notifications to the app that will alert me even when the app is closed and my phone screen is locked. Otherwise I sometimes miss a clients message and it looks very unprofessional. Thanks.

### 2/5 — You can’t use your own YouTube videos

*2020-11-16, version 9.7*

It’s okay...  it said you can add your own YouTube videos for exercise demos but they only provide you with very limited results.  I tried to even copy and paste the link to my YouTube video for a client but it wouldn’t even let me do that. My video is even listed as public with tags and everything. I’ve decided to just continue using my website/Facebook messenger for my clients. I’m so glad that I’ve discovered this during the free trial. Otherwise I would have lost money on an app that doesn’t provide what I’m looking for for me and my clients. I was hoping this app would have made things easier for me and my clientele. Turns out what I’ve been doing is a LOT easier than this app.

### 5/5 — Best Client Tracking App

*2020-09-28, version 9.7*

I love the simplistic set up and design of this app. Let’s you do what you want in regards to adding and taking away things for the client and just makes it real simple for the client and the trainer and that’s what’s most important!!! NEW FEATURES ARE ALWAYS WELCOME! BUT LEAVE THIS APP THE WAY IT IS! THE SET UP IS AWESOME! DONT OVER COMPLICATE THINGS! That can scare both client and trainer away from the software! The simplistic design is perfect!!

### 2/5 — Can’t upload my own videos

*2020-07-19, version 9.4*

I don’t see a way to upload videos that I create for my clients. I don’t want to have to pick from YouTube since some of the trainers may not be certified. Please add this feature.

### 5/5 — Great training business app

*2020-06-09, version 9.4*

Great app for trainer and client. You can create your own videos on YouTube or link existing videos to exercises. Very user friendly and value for money. You can also enter assessment data and communicate directly with clients.

### 1/5 — You can’t cancel

*2026-05-18, version 14.6*

Very disappointing experience. I cancelled both through the app and by emailing their support team, yet the subscription kept running. After 5 months of trying to resolve the issue, they claimed they never received my email — even though the email was clearly visible in the same email chain I sent back to them. 

The whole process felt extremely frustrating and unfair, especially when there was clear proof that I had attempted to cancel properly. Customer support was not helpful and the cancellation process seems designed to make it difficult for users to leave. 

Really sad to deal with this kind of service. I would strongly recommend looking for an alternative app with more transparent billing and better customer support.

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2025-11-10, version 14.6*

Every time I open the app, it closes.

### 1/5 — Not working.

*2024-01-07, version 12.9*

Fix this garbage app.

### 1/5 — This app made me lose all my data

*2023-06-08, version 12.6*

Had all my client’s templates on this app and their diary and for it disappear. I need answers, or i will be canceling my subscription to this APP ASAP.

### 1/5 — Cost

*2020-10-18, version 9.7*

The app itself is really well built but they’ve completely priced themselves out of a sale. $40 a month is far too much.

### 1/5 — Client Login assistance

*2019-04-30, version 6.7*

Clients unable to login to app with password provided to create new acct? Help!

### 1/5 — Unable to create an account

*2018-07-27, version 6.7*

No matter what password I create, I keep getting an error message telling me the password has to be six characters or more, when the passwords I attempt to create are more than six characters. Please fix!

### 1/5 — Brilliant app if it wasn't overpriced

*2018-01-08, version 6.1*

They could of given you more clients to put on there for free but after 3 clients you made you have to pay for more which is for 23 pound a month which over a year is like 275 pound. How do you expect anyone to pay that. What a joke I will be deleting the app and finding another one now.

### 2/5 — Loved the app until I tried to get app branded . Developer just stopped communicating.

*2023-11-07, version 12.8*

Loved the app until I tried to get app branded . Developer just stopped communicating.

### 2/5 — Glitchy

*2023-07-06, version 12.6*

When I try to start a new week of workouts programmed for my clients it glitches out and I’m unable to create a new week for my clients. The entire screen goes blank and I can no longer look at each new week without something going wrong. If I try to scroll down to see my Saturday each week it won’t let me scroll down that far either. The app would be great if I was able to scroll down to Saturday or start a new week with my clients without the entire screen going blank during the Plan Template and could actually continue my 16 week programs.

### 5/5 — System upgrade

*2025-12-02, version 14.6*

Wish the system allows keeping a missed workout routine. Right now if I missed a day, the plan from my trainer disappears. And it’s frustrating to repeat them in your own using the own workout.

### 5/5 — THE BEST

*2024-12-18, version 14.1*

I accidentally purchased a year membership with these guys and was absolutely freaking out. however, they have a very convenient 24 seven chat support that took care of this issue literally immediately! THEY REFUNDED ME ALL MY FUNDS BACK IN UNDER 10 MINUTES.

Will be with these for as long as they are under operations🙏🏼💯

nothin but Great things!

### 5/5 — Apple Watch App

Can the developers please build a Apple Watch app for this??

### 5/5 — Just needs a bit of polish

*2021-09-03, version 9.9*

I love the concept. The sense of community. It just needs some UX improvements and this app will become an industry standard. Love it so far!
