### 1/5 — Apparently there’s no support

*2023-11-06, version 1.1.0*

I’ve never been able to log in and use the app. Trying the walking program on my own

### 1/5 — Difficult to use

*2019-10-21*

Difficult to use and kind pointless

### 1/5 — PLEASE allow users to remain logged in

*2019-10-01, version 1.1.0*

It looks like this is the original version of the app created 4 years ago that requires you to log in each time you use it. Most apps provide frequent new releases, and now then virtually all other apps and devices allow you to stay logged in. Repeatedly needing to log in is such a major inconvenience it has prevented me from using the app. PLEASE update this feature ASAP.

Thanks in advance!

### 1/5 — Accessories needed

*2017-09-15, version 1.1.0*

If you don't have the book or the Fitbit, it's useless.

### 1/5 — Limited & Cost

*2017-03-27, version 1.1.0*

I love my Arthritis Today magazine but was so disappointed with this app. First they should explain that the app is free only if you have the "Walking with Ease" book AND a Fitbit!  I have a wonder app MyFitnessPal that I've used for years now & don't intend to give it up. I don't mind paying for the book they're selling but not when it can only be used with one fitness app. So don't download unless you use Fitbit ☹️

### 3/5 — Could be so much more

*2015-01-28, version 1.0.0*

A very basic app without much interaction such as daily reminders, rewards for reaching certain goals, or a pedometer to track walking within the app. It does allow some interface with wearable devices, which is good.  Would be nice if there was more info or tips about arthritis within the app rather than referring you to buy the book.
