Some suggestions
Great app. My suggestions:
- don’t show the paywall directly, even with the free trial many will not try
- it didn’t activate water mode in Watch Ultra when I select plunge (for reference, was untimed)
- if can sense water, after 5 seconds out of water suggest pause
- let use chose 3, 5 or 10 seconds countdown
- let use put goal (like 10 min) and mark time counting up and allow passing the allotted time
- when user defines temperature, it is not showing during the plunge
Great app, anyway. Some improvements only.

Thanks for your feedback, we will consider these for future updates.
Works good for a few days
Works good for the first few days - then very inconsistent. I have ultra 3 for reference. It seems like every other day the app believes I’m getting into a 44° sauna and then the other half the time the app just continually loads for a minute at a time. Not auto ending the cold plunge session when you leave the plunge also is very frustrating. It seems like it’s better just to use the free dive app that comes with the watch.

Decent but not Perfect-Updated
What works well: The app loads and connects with Apple Watch fine. It records the session and uploads to Strava. It logs your sessions.
What doesn’t work well or at all:
It doesn’t seem to know my location even though it has location permission. It logs the session at the correct time but uploads it to Strava with a time 10 hours later. There is no online support, just a static website.
Update to my initial review (one month later): the developer has responded to every issue I had and the app is functioning much more consistently now.

Best cold plunge app
After cold plunging for over 5 years and trying every app out there I find this is best. All the information is simple and straightforward while in the water. Also, I found the water temp is very accurate. The AI is very interesting. As someone who started 5 years ago this is a savior. No more having to log in to my calendar app after taking pictures of my info outside. I highly recommend this app. Everyone that I have recommended it to feels the same way.

Great app, great support
When I first started using the app it was ok, it worked and did what I needed. But I had some issues. I reached out to support and to my surprise, all of my issues were already on track to be resolved in the next release and lo and behold they were! The latest release is exactly what I envisioned the Apple Watch app should be like. It works flawlessly and their support was kind enough to not only let me know the release was coming but also to let me know when it was available.

Best cold plunge/sauna app by far!
Since starting my cold plunge journey I’ve been looking for an app that will track water temperature, time, and heart rate on my watch and this app does it all and a lot more. Also works great in my sauna. I have now been using this app for over a year, just renewed my subscription, and it has been excellent. More importantly, the developer is VERY responsive. I get a response same day and many of my suggestions have been added in updates

Great app!!
This app makes tracking my cold plunges effortless. I love seeing the water temperature and guided breathing right on my watch and being notified when my time is up

App crashes
Great app and design , but it crashes often
So-so
Has a lot of potential, but finicky and inconsistent. After using it for over a year, things I’ve observed: Sometimes the timer goes away mid-cold plunge or sauna, sometimes it remains visible. Sometimes the timer continues to run after the allocated time runs out, other times it stops on its own. Sometimes the timer vibrates to notify me, sometimes it doesn’t. There are no settings to fix these issues nor rhyme or reason. Very frustrating.

Contrast therapy tracking
I've been using the Ultraplunge app to track my contrast therapy regimen, and I couldn't be more impressed. The app is intuitive, reliable, and perfectly tailored for managing cold and heat exposure routines. It makes logging sessions effortless and provides helpful insights that keep me consistent and motivated.
What truly sets Ultraplunge apart is their customer service. Any questions I had—whether about features or best practices—were answered in near real-time. The support team was not only responsive but also followed up to ensure everything was working smoothly. That level of care and attention is rare and deeply appreciated.
Highly recommend Ultraplunge to anyone serious about contrast therapy and looking for a seamless digital companion backed by stellar support.

No trial
Can’t even open the app without paying
Response from developer
You do not have to sign up for a paid subscription to try the app, there is a free 7 day trial
Forced subscription
You can’t even see the app without submitting to the subscription. Terrible.
C you have to go via the watch
an update to below I’ve finally found centigrade but it was only available via the watch and now suddenly it’s available in the app as well
so I can’t even use it I’m not converting from Celsius centigrade to Fahrenheit every time I use it so it was useless

Response from developer
Hi, please contact our support so we can understand the issue you are facing and get it working for you. You can change to Celsius in the Watch App, which will also be reflected on the iOS app. If you are having difficulties with this, we are here to help, please reach out.
Will no longer SYNC to Watch
Loved it at first. Now it won’t measure heart rate anymore or sync to watch. My other apps are still synced. Disappointed that it stop working so quickly.
Active responsive developer
The app is great at tracking the cold and hot sessions, the developer is active and in 1day they release the update to better track cryotherapy, im very happy with this app
So close!
Love the basis of the app. However, it is not recording my heart rate while in the sauna or cold plunge. Using the ultra 2 watch. All permissions have been given. But still not working. Would give five stars if I got that going!
Great
The team at Ultra Plunge has been very accessible and enjoyable to work with over the time I’ve had the app.
They have added key features that for me take treatment to next level.
After 2 months of use i now can track where the benefits really are and adjust my training accordingly
This app also motivates me to keep my treatments and tools current in my training!
Good job team!
