### 4/5 — Very useful app

*2026-06-25*

I have been using this app for over four years to track the heart rate zones when exercising.
The reason the app didn’t get five stars is because it doesn’t sync with some apps that it is supposed to sync with.

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2026-05-27, version 9.0.3*

Good when it works properly but it is buggy. Latest version will not mirror onto iPhone. I have emailed support without success.

### 4/5 — ミラーリング連動しなくなった

*2026-05-23*

以前までは問題なく動作していましたが、ここ数日（最近のアップデート後頃から？）Apple Watch の心拍数が iPhone
側へリアルタイム反映されなくなりました。

Apple Watch 側では心拍は正常に測定されていますが、iPhone のミラー表示では数値が更新されず固定されたままになります。

使用環境：
・Apple Watch → 心拍測定
・iPhone → ミラー表示でウォーキング中にモニタリング
・1週間ほど前までは正常動作

同様の症状が出ている方がいるか確認したいです。改善をご検討いただけると助かります。

### 5/5 — Super App.

*2026-05-09, version 9.0.1*

Works for me perfectly!

### 5/5 — Nice job

*2026-05-03, version 9.0.0*

Honestly this app is perfect for tracking zones. I have used it for years. The best thing is the fact that you can use your Apple fitness and it still tracks everything. 

Love it.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-04-28, version 9.0.0*

Really neat little app that summarizes and visualizes all your workout data.
Note: there is a problem with the restore purchase feature if you have already bought the app, but if you go into settings and buy pro again, it will let you restore without having to make a second purchase.

### 5/5 — Worth purchasing

*2026-04-25, version 9.0.0*

Solid app for tracking heart rate zones and helping me keep pace and see my improvements.  Especially good with Apple Watch

### 5/5 — Great app-never a problem!

*2026-04-17, version 9.0.0*

Use this every week to track my total minutes in each zone.  I use the free version and it always does what I want without a single problem.  Been using for approximately 4-5 years. Seamless-you almost forget it’s there.

### 4/5 — Great app - widget for weekly goals?

*2026-04-16, version 9.0.0*

This app is great. I bought it right away.  Happy to support devs who use one time purchase.

Overall I love how the app can visualize my workout data. It would be great if the app had a widget that shows my progress towards the weekly goals. This could be released as pro plus or something which requires a second one-time purchase.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-04-11, version 9.0.0*

Integrates all my exercises into a single view. Clear and easy to use. Great value.

### 2/5 — Bad subscription

*2026-03-04, version 9.0.0*

On March 4, I deleted my zones app and it charged me $7.99 for a sub subscription instead. I will contact my credit card company.

### 5/5 — The Best Long Term Tracker

*2026-03-01, version 9.0.0*

If you are committed to long term fitness and performance goals, this app gives you the very best snapshots - allowing you to see and compare your month over month and year over year persistence at a glance.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Heart rate display

*2026-06-25, version 9.0.3*

Due to the most recent update, it is no longer possible to show a continuous heart rate display.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste ur money

*2026-06-21, version 9.0.3*

The app doesn’t connect to health app anymore. Cant track my zones. They don’t respond to emails. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — watch mirroring is broken

*2026-05-28, version 9.0.3*

the mirroring feature from watch to iphone no longer works. no response from developer. very disappointed for a paid app.

### 1/5 — Screen Mirroring

*2026-05-24, version 9.0.2*

I’ve been satisfied with Zones for several years.  When rowing I would mirror my watch to my iPhone to watch my metrics without having to continually turn my hand.
Since the 9.0.2 update the mirroring does not work so the app is now useless to me.   And, yes I did report the bug with no response.   Such a shame!

### 1/5 — Delay in updation of purchase of app.

*2026-05-09*

Not a review. Purchased pro subscription. Still showing purchase pro in stats section.

### 1/5 — Unable to restore to pro version.

*2026-04-27, version 9.0.0*

Unable to restore to pro version. Purchased back in 2024. Contacted devs 7 days ago. No response from them. Waste of £8.

### 1/5 — Love the app but it won’t RESTORE

*2026-04-24, version 9.0.0*

App will not allow me to restore purchase click and nothing. Tried all troubleshooting advice they provided. 

No customer service available to help. Don’t want to lose data. So that’s the downside. 

Sent them an email w a screenshot of previous purchase. Ignored. 

It’s not much $ to buy again but it’s the workout history and customer service that’s missing. 

1 star review, for poor customer service and inability to restore purchase. Will revise to 5 stars if this will get your attention to fix my problem. 

Thank you!

### 1/5 — Les zones ne respectent pas les zones d’Apple Watch

*2026-03-24*

Ils ont inventé leur propre numéro de fréquence cardiaque alors ça rend les statistiques complètement nul

### 1/5 — Why??

*2025-11-20, version 8.1.0*

Not what I thought it was- I assumed after upgrading to the pro version that my Apple fitness / workouts would get imported into the zones app but it does not.  A rather useless app without that functionality

### 1/5 — Can’t make interval heart rate zone workout with AirPods Pro 3 and no Apple Watch

*2025-10-02, version 8.1.0*

See title

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Gives all that I need

*2026-08-20, version 9.0.3*

It groups all my workouts from different sources and gives beautiful insights. It is perfect as is.

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2026-07-03, version 9.0.3*

I use it every day

### 5/5 — My favorite

*2026-06-30, version 9.0.3*

Heart rate reading from the AirPods Pro 3 would be the icing on the cake. Sleek, functional, straightforward design. 10/10.

### 5/5 — Simple and best

*2026-06-30*

It is simply good at what it does. Settings allow for customisation of heart rate zones. Please add recovery score and training Readiness score also. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Love the app

*2026-06-30, version 9.0.3*

Love it but right now I can’t contact you (support email function just shows a message- no email). Wanted to ask if you can add a widget for month/year calendar view of workout history. Filterable would be great too.

### 5/5 — Zones for heart rate

*2026-06-28, version 9.0.3*

Great app for keeping track on zone training

### 5/5 — Stay in zone

*2026-06-09, version 9.0.3*

I like the zone app because it gives me a good idea of how hard I am working out or walking or running

### 5/5 — Zones review

*2026-06-06, version 9.0.3*

Excellent for keeping track during squash matches

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-05-28*

The app for zones !!!!

### 5/5 — ありがたい…

*2026-05-20*

今現在、古いWatch（SE3）iOS8.8.2でも動作する素晴らしいアプリです。

登録する運動もカスタマイズしやすく、例えばボクシングをしながらWatchだけで歩数もカウントしてくれます。
iOSのデフォルトのワークアウトではうまく検知と記録できません。

コンプリケーションにも対応していて、watchの文字盤にショートカット追加でき、スッと操作しやすい。

特に素晴らしいのは、ワンボタンで簡単に記録できて、リアルタイムの心拍を参考にして目的にあったペースを調整したりできることです。
運動時のモチベーション維持に役立ちます。

買い切りなのも他にはない◎ポイントです。

ウォーキングやランニング以外の運動もしている方に特におすすめです。
