I’ve tried over 4 challenges..
I saw a lot of reviews mentioning that you can’t keep the program after the challenge is done.
However, I have not had this experience. I have still been able to use previous challenges. It’s not “active” but you can absolutely start from the beginning and keep track of what day you are on, since it automatically defaults to the first day.
I think the meal plans are soo soo good. I cook everyday and these have been the best healthiest meals ( the smoothies are amazing! ) and yes you can swap out a meal if you don’t like the one listed ( plus there’s so many to choose from). I have tried previous apps and meal plans and they lacked a lot of flavor and variety.
My only suggestion would be that the app should include warm up and cool downs, since these are essential for muscle recovery & performance.

Can’t keep the program
I like the programs I just don’t like you can’t keep them for later use? Like you spend all this money on her program yet you can’t keep it on the app? You have to download each and every one of them in order to use it in the future. Mind you there are probably about 100+ exercises. If I’m going to spend my money on a pricey program then at least let us keep it in the app for whenever and as long as we want. DISAPPOINTED!

Weird app that has potential
I started one day late so I lost that day already. The app started on day 2. There needs to be a better grocery list than listing by ounces how much you need. I need 1/3 cups of raspberries? For the week? For the day? I’m confused or just listing 4oz of chicken? I was unaware I needed to weigh my food. Then you sit there and add it up to see what you actually need to go grocery shopping is extra work. The food photos are deceiving there’s sandwich wrap photos for the meal of turkey breast with lettuce n siracha like cmon just take the extra time to take the proper photos. I bought this thinking I can manage it but the meals and snacks are meant to be made as if I have a full kitchen but I’m at the office so I can’t meal prep the frozen smoothie. It would be helpful to give you a list of items you need for the at HOME workouts because it assumes you own a full gym in there with bands, leg bands, dumbbells when it would be nice to see what you need first before starting the program. I purchased later reading the reviews, should be a section to add substitutes in food but I didn’t find it. Saw the app disappears after the programs over, shame because I would like to keep the workout plans seeing I paid for it.

App is glitchy
How do I get into the app, I have been trying to complete my challenge but I can’t even the workouts because it won’t even load
Great workouts but something is missing
The workouts and the app interface is great but adding a timer will go a LONG way. It’s very inconvenient having to switch back and forth to time yourself.
Great Workouts! Yummy Food!
Loving these workouts so much. The only issue I had with the app is I noticed it is not iPad friendly. Other than that, I would definitely purchase another workout program in the future.
Eh
It’s alright. Not worth the money honestly. I’ve purchased different workout plans & this one so far has been my least favorite. When the challenge ends I guess you can download the pdf??? I’d honestly use tone & sculpt over this one if you’re looking for a good workout app!:) or even daisys own workout program is better & a lot cheaper than this! ^.^ pls pls pls save your money!

Wish I saved my money
Paid $90 for the 8 week challenge & when it was over the app just completely stopped working.. alwayssss glitches & is very frustrating to use. Love her workouts but I can definitely tell it is all about the money.. the workouts are all starting to be the same in every challenge.. ugh so disappointed

I love her plans but it’s glitchy
Can’t open something and go back you gotta close out the whole ap
Great app. Top notch customer service
There are a few minor things I would like to see to get 5 stars. 1. Be able to adjust your start date. I didn’t have the shopping list/workout requirements and it auto starts from the date you buy. 2. A quick find for what’s needed for home workouts/meals, as I didn’t have both size of bands. That’s really it. It’s super easy to navigate. The food is delicious and flavorful. It’s super easy to switch out (i haven’t seen this feature with other apps!) if you don’t want that meal. I requested a new start date and got immediate, quick responses. Very polite and helpful. The workouts are great. Easy to do at home and intense. I am not at all disappointed. I’ll update at the end of the 30 day workout for results but I’m in my first week and feeling great. Thanks, ladies!

Hey! Start dates are adjustable on all of our programs except Challenge which are date specific. Programs start as soon as you create an account in the app, not directly after purchase. We continue to improve the functionality of the app. Thank you for the feedback. We are thrilled to know you have had an amazing experience overall and hope to see you on our future Challenges :) - Team WBK
Out dated app
The app is super inconvenient to use. The videos sometimes don’t load and if you stopped working out for a couple of days it takes forever to find where you left off. Not realistic with real world people.
Great workouts - crappy app
I love the workouts but the app is constantly shutting down on me to the point where I just have to use the PDF :(
Glitch
I love the workouts and the new layout. However, when my screen goes dark the app goes straight to week1 day1 instead of the current workout 🙄 thanks for putting together a great workout app!
Awful!
Purchased a program through her website and can’t access on the app. Such a waste of money.
small bugs in app, things you should know
some buttons in the app are not responsive (ie getting tips from katya will open a page but you have to close out the app to close it) also, the day you purchase is the day you start your progress....not really helpful well trying to have some control of your fitness journey
Can’t keep
It’s dumb that with the price you pay, you can’t keep the workouts and meal plans. Not worth it if you are a gym rat.
App doesn’t work on WiFi!
Please fix this problem. I don’t get good reception in my house and rely on WiFi. Once WiFi is on it can’t find my information.
Satisfied
The workoutsbykatya iPhone app is very convenient when you want a visual on tracking your meals and workouts all in one place. It gives you a very fine outline on the agenda for the WEEK and for the day of. With good description and examples showcasing on what’s ahead. Also the app gives you a direct video of the exercise with the correct form so you don’t feel like your doing the exercise wrong in public. Would recommend to anyone who wants a better lifestyle on trying to get on the right path with fitness and diet. 💜💜

Get thic with me
I choose the advance program and at home work outs but I honestly loved how the app work I did not have any complication and I was surprised that there was no glute activation and all workout were the same sometimes but I still went with it and gave it a try and I definitely saw a big difference in my legs I did spice things up by using heavy weights but it did make it more of a challenge but I can say I love the way my legs look super built.
I would definitely recommend if your look for something different from what ur used to doing.

So happy to hear this, you did amazing by taking the initiative to increase the weights over time which is what we'd hope since the body gets fitter and stronger. The exercises change every other week but the reps & sets change weekly. Thanks for your support, keep up the great work being an inspiration. - Team Katya
:(
I really wanted to love this app but I didn’t :( All the workouts are very similar, don’t buy different challenges. There is no activation or finishers section. They also don’t tell you how much time to rest in between sets/reps or when to increase the weight. You can’t keep the workouts after the challenge is over which is awful. I want to be able to do the challenge again if I want to but I guess they want you to keep buying new ones. The workouts are good but not worth that much money.

So sorry to hear your disappointment. We are always looking to improve the app and take feedback on-board. The workouts have some similarities since but the exercises change biweekly and the variables (reps & sets) change weekly, we follow a traditional progressive overload approach and aim to mostly incorporate exercises that work for more than one muscle group. We would like to clarify and say that all workouts and meal plans are downloadable, we stress to participants throughout challenges to save the plans in order to keep them. Each user has the ability to save them from the app to their email or PDF. All the best. - Team Katya
