Apps no fluff, straight to the point, which I like. ### 5/5 — Have barely begun *2024-04-24, version 1.0.29* … but! It seems to be exactly what I am looking for. I already have bands yet was looking for an app that used loop bands rather than handles. More reviews coming as I delve more into this app. ### 5/5 — So easy and simple *2024-04-12, version 1.0.29* Nice to have an app that doesn’t get to muddled with “extras” Very easy. I think I might pay for this app. ### 5/5 — Slick and easy to follow *2024-02-27, version 1.0.28* I have 3 resistance band work out apps. They’re all good but this one looks classy. I love attention to detail and this app has it. ### 5/5 — Good app *2024-02-20, version 1.0.28* I can feel the exercises working and can feel the muscles getting put to work. Very good app and recommend for others. Will update for results :) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2024-01-31, version 1.0.25* Why can’t other workout apps be this easy to use… thank you Weller for making this app. I hope someday apple health can be a part of this program but til then you guys rock Well you guys went and done it…yay! You all rock even better with Apple integration and I gotta say your making the “other” resistance band workout apps look bad. keep being the best that you all are already are..thank you Weller ### 5/5 — Great simple app… *2024-01-10, version 1.0.23* I just started using this app, and I like it because it’s very simple… This is simpler (and cheaper) than anything I have used in the past… I am happy with this app… ### 5/5 — It works, very efficient. *2023-12-26, version 1.0.23* I like the workout options. Very concise and measurable work. You set your requirements or follow suggested methods. Great app!!! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2023-09-11, version 1.0.20* If you’re new to resistance band training, this app is ideal. Easy to use and follow. ### 5/5 — Resistance is key to success! *2023-08-27* Yeah to say that I am new to resistance bands and was looking for something informative, So far I am really enjoying using the application. it interprets the breakdown of how many repetitions for muscle growth for specific upper/lower and whole muscle groups. Also the structure of the pictures are very informative and easy viewing. Well lastly even though using it’s not completely free ,$29.99 to upgrade ,but I’ve would like to say I definitely do recommend it to and to try it out yourself. ### 5/5 — Free *2023-08-13, version 1.0.19* Says I’ll get the app free off I leave a five star rating. We’ll see! ### 5/5 — Good exercise range *2023-08-03, version 1.0.19* Having an Apple Watch for fitness & already paying a subscription, I was looking for something free & simple to follow. As per most fitness apps this app has a choice of upgrading to the paid version, which I don’t want to do. The free section is adequate for a beginner-intermediate person. I have used bands for years & I like the portability of them & easy to store. This app has an ok range of exercises, mostly basic in the free section. If you’re looking for more dynamic exercises it may be worth upgrading to the paid subscription. I also like the evidence based research on the use & effectiveness of band practice. Very useful to know. Also the guide on band size was helpful. Though I use a medium flat band, it still is suitable for the workouts. I have a stronger band too, which I’ll progress to using. Only one issue is the counter on the reps, I prefer timed sessions rather than reps- as you can make it more suited to your level of fitness or motion, but again there’s no stopping me from missing or adding a rep asi see fit etc. Free, basic, simple - fits my needs. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Could be good but… *2026-01-17, version 1.0.36* Only gives you limited workouts. Must pay for everything with a yearly subscription. ### 1/5 — Nothing to do without a Subscription *2025-02-10* Yes the app is free with “in app purchases” but every single function needs to be purchased. Terrible **Developer response:** We designed the app with the purpose of making the free version useful, in fact, all workouts for all parts of the body are completely free. The premium features are for those who want guidance, tracking, and customization and we offer them at a competitive price ### 2/5 — Decent app *2025-02-10* I’m giving it 2 stars for now for two reasons. First being in the app it says “want to keep Weller for free? Give us a 5 star review” so you may want to keep that in mind with all these 5 star reviews. Second reason I’m giving it 2 stars is that from what I can see of the free version it does look like a nice app. The free version has just one workout per muscle/group so I am already bored with that but I bet you could just do one every day and then repeat it until you get bored, without paying. I really want to see the programs but it’s pro version only. There is a 6 day free trial, but I’m not doing it. **Developer response:** Hi, the free version was designed with the purpose to be useful, and we decided not to show ads to not disturb users. Most free apps have ads to sustain themselves, however, we decided to keep the free version ad free. We kindly ask for an optional review, which is a standard practice, as a small gesture if you enjoy the always-free version app. We also offer the premium features for those who want guidance, tracking, and customization and we offer them at a competitive price. ### 3/5 — Could be great *2023-02-02, version 1.0.11* I’d really like if you could customize the amount of time between each activity. Overall, a little glitchy, but probably the best resistance band app out there right now. ### 4/5 — Great app *2026-04-28, version 1.0.36* Great exercises. Only complaint is it would be nice to adjust the speed of the reps to match my actual speed. Aside from that, great app ### 4/5 — Recovering from an injury *2026-03-20, version 1.0.36* Well, I hurt my shoulder again. Doing band workouts like Weller provides allows me the controlled motion and resistance I need to rehab the shoulder safely. I am extremely satisfied with my progress so far, and in part, it’s due to Weller. Plenty of sites have you performing overly complex or just awkward movements to seem unique, but there’s no need for that. Weller sticks to the basics, and that will not only give you a great workout but keep you safe as well. ### 4/5 — Good selection *2022-08-05, version 0.3.1* Though i find the exercises way too slow. Would be nicer to be able to adjust tempo ### 4/5 — Excellent Band workout *2022-07-01, version 0.3.1* First time used if this Free App. Even when using the Bands I can get my intensity up into the Green & Yellow range on my Myzone Switch! Awesome. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2026-05-23, version 1.0.37* I love the simplicity of this app. Detailed enough to educate you on all the movements and keep you on track but not so much that you feel overwhelmed. I’ve learned a lot using this app. Highly recommend as an addition to weight training or someone just starting. ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-11-20, version 1.0.35* It’s a great app; has everything all in one place and I can sync with Apple health to pull in my other data as well. ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love the workouts *2025-06-28, version 1.0.34* Great app ### 5/5 — Well Organized *2025-02-22, version 1.0.34* The entire application is well organized and easy to use. It’s your choice on what to exercise or follow a program. ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-01-13, version 1.0.33* I’m new to using resistance bands and these exercises were easy to understand and a good workout. ### 5/5 — Finally free and easy to understand! *2025-01-05, version 1.0.33* I’m a senior and I have been looking for an easy program to follow up from home… this is it, thank you so much! ### 5/5 — Excited to BEGIN *2024-12-02, version 1.0.33* I have had this app downloaded on my phone since the end of October, I am waiting to start because I had a total knee replacement of my right knee on November 15, 2024. I am so excited to start using this app and getting back on track!! Regain the strength in my “new knee” and strengthen my core and balance, did I mention I am a below the knee amputee on my left leg? I plan to be walking and exercising regularly with the help of this. 🫶🏻 Godspeed ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-09-27, version 1.0.30* I love the simplicity. Also very clean. ### 5/5 — Lovely *2024-09-10, version 1.0.30* App is great. Give it a shot ### 5/5 — Excellent little app *2024-08-20, version 1.0.30* I’m having great fun using the app it’s so easy to use and some great little workouts. Well worth a try by anyone with a few bands who wants to do a well thought through program. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
