Sections skipped

The workouts skip sections. Unless you hold your phone during the entire session to monitor the section and hit the back button, you miss that portion of the workout. The “contact us”
Button goes nowhere. I have no way to reach a support person to get the issue resolved or get a refund.

scams

says it’s free but asks you a bunch of questions then asks u to pay girl bye … smh wasting my time!!

Doesnt work

Paid the subscription for this and It tells me to check my progress and i havent ran…
The problem is, i was using It and then i started realizing that on a 14 min run for example, Its timer would only do 6 min or less… so “i completed” a workout that was half done. It would tell me to run then to walk and then walk again and then “congratulations” you completed your workout ….

Definitely a waste of money!!

Un-usable

Can someone please explain to me how I’m supposed to use this app? Every time I try it it either crashes or doesn’t count my workout/run. My Apple Watch is doing a better job of helping me with my runs then this app is, and I paid for this app!! I’d like to get a refund if the app is not going to actually work. I’ve already tried the “contact us” with no luck 🤦🏻‍♀️

App doesn’t work. Can contact anyone

I was able to exercise once with this app and now it won’t work. I’ve update it. I’ve updated my iPhone 12 and I’ve tried select “contact us” on the app but it still won’t show the exercise plan. I paid a year subscription and now I don’t know how to get that back. Very frustrating.

I want to like it….

I want to like this app but there are too many inconvenient features. It doesn’t keep talking when the screen is off, the breathing explanations are too long during the workout and they should only be announced once to minimize distraction, and it doesn’t allow you to log treadmill workouts. Not worth it at all.

Issue with registration

Hi, I did register steps and subscribe for the year but there is nothing happening after this. How to get a plan?

Simple review

Don’t advertise just to end up on a payment screen after download its just a dumb strategy

Response from developer

Hi there! Hmm, we have not had this issue reported to us before, and we'd certainly like to look into it for you. Could you please share the details? Please use our contact details in the app's description, as they are always up-to-date. Thank you!

How am I suppose to cancel it???

This is the worst when there is no indication of the is not free or how much you suppose to pay . This means that you don’t believe in your app either and just want to hoax people into paying for a few months ….. how am I suppose to cancel my subscription or purchase or whatever you called your gimmick ?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing free!

If you are hoping for free help losing weight, don5 waste your time with this app. Once it has collected your information it asks for money. No trial so no idea what, if anything, you are paying for. Stick with the know/successful apps if you really want results, or simply eat less and do more.

Voice out if sync with visual instructions

I was enjoying this as a walking app at the start but after IOS updates the voice is now one step behind visual. It starts after the exercises with moderate walking and voice and visual are in sync. But, when the visual shifts to the next phase, the app repeats moderate while visual as moved to fast walking. This is annoying as I prefer to rely on the voice. Please fix this bug. I thought it might fix after the newest app update and just released IOS 14.6. But the bug is still here.

Save your money

Terrible interface, loud obnoxious voice yelling “good job!” every 10 seconds is forced and insincere. Not a lot of options to change workout, increase or decrease intensity— you just have to do whatever the app tells you. Great idea— a running coach for weight loss— but this isn’t it. Hoping another company hops in on this and makes a better app. I regret spending $30 for 3 months, and I cancelled after one run with it.
Absolute garbage.

Too buggy

I have been using this app for 3 months now. It is not great. So buggy. The clock stopped counting, the exercise portion lost image, and I lost data for about a week’s activities. Most laughable, the voice instruction and word instruction do not sync!

I also wish it had more flexibility and data.

There is no way to tell what are the running days and what resting days.

When you look at your exercise history with the app fir the last 3 months, it does not provide chronologically.

If I had not paid for it, I would not have used it.

Not what I expected

Spent a few minutes filling in the online form and expected some info not a screen requesting immediate payment for an outline of a walking programme without any info re value for money

Great workout to fit in

It’s hard to make an excuse not to do about 30 mins. of exercise a day. The visual and vocal guidance is key for me. However, for the first time today, both visual and audio cut out for me. The timers still worked, but the voice and video were gone. All around though, this is a great app.

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for the kind words! We are super excited to hear that you had such a great experience using our app 🙌

Literally no product

You download a survey and have to pay a minimum of £20 to get any information, let alone a chance to use the product. No free one of workout, no trial period, no idea what you’re actually paying for - nothing. Sorry but if apps like Zombies Run can offer the level of quality they have AND a free trial AND turn a profit AND ask a fraction of what you’re asking here, idk what you think justifies asking £20 for a promise, especially with the crap reviews.

Hi, if you need a bit more information before diving into in-app purchases to enjoy all the advantages of the app, please shoot an email to our support team who will be happy to assist you in making your decision. Please use the contact details in the app description. Thanks!

Do not purchase

I made the error of purchasing a subscription. This app has a crude computer voice telling you to do the steps of the plan Ie) run or walk. There are no incentive graphics or visuals or motivation within the app. Very primitive tool that would not be of help to me at all. I cancelled as soon as I saw what it was but they say they have no power to give refund and I must try to go through apple. This was not an apple application and there was no support to navigate asking for money back. Lesson learned the hard way. Be smarter then me.

Didn’t even work!

I downloaded and paid for 1 month to help me lose weight and get fitter, this app doesn’t even work properly, really strange! Didn’t register my Apple Watch movement so it’s useless, and it’s mot the set up as I am an Apple expert, this app needs lots more work
