Only tried it a couple of times so far but I'm liking it. It's got a clean UI and nothing's over complicated. :0) Edit! Recently it has started kicking me out of routines after the second round starts and it's as though I never did them. Hi developers, please take a look at this as i loved this app. (I'm on an LG V30)
easy to use - you can make your own or use the pre-made. I've been using the free version for about a year or two. what I like the most is you can play your music and this will work with it. what I don't like is it can be active confusing at first trying to figure out their format to create or adjust their workouts. haven't bothered looking for any other apps bc this one works just fine. 4 stars just bc it is a pay for premium services (guess I'm just a cheapster).
I used to like this app, but recently it kept asking to sync to my Google account every time I'd open the app or switch to it from another app. For being free, it has some good features but got intolerably annoying. I uninstalled. Other con: there's no way to skip ahead (or go back) to an exercise. Let's say you accidentally close a routine or are tired of a certain segment of it, there's no way to skip ahead to the next moves. You have to start at the beginning every single time.
Repeats the same 4 exercises twice for one tabata, so there is not much of a variety. Paid for the membership to create my own & a few weeks later switched from iPhone to android. No way to transfer my account, so I contacted the developer to see if they would honor my purchase & was told that it was "impossible" even though all other apps transferred. Too many other free options out there to purchase this app and deal with poor customer service and a very limited library of workouts.
This is supposedly a "free" app with in-app purchases and ads, so I expected ads and some sort of optional premium upgrade. Instead, before ever trying a workout, the app asked me to select a "fair activation fee." So I can't comment on the quality of the workouts because I never got past the false advertising.
Good, but needs more audio options. I paid for this app to create my own workouts, and I am happy with the app in general. My major complaint is that there is no way to mute or adjust the volume of the tones between exercises. I can only adjust my phone volume in general, but that means if I want to turn down the tones, then I can't listen to my music. Please fix this and I'll update my review.
generally, this app is worth 5*s. I'm giving it 4*s because I have this downloaded on my phone and tablet. my wife and I use the tablet when we workout together. My only critique is when you created or change one thing on one device, it doesn't get picked up on the other device so you have to go make the same changes there. for instance, I changed the 'Ideal Body' workout and added more to it but then had to go make the same changes on my tablet. if this can be fixed, I'll give it 5*.
exceptional workout timer, exactly what I was looking for update unsubbed to try other things, came back. this is the easiest to get started and had the best interface, being able to listen to music in app is worth the subscription to me.
just be aware, that refunds are not normally given and that the cost will be in your local currency. so this could well be more than advertised
This is a very interesting app and I love it but it sometimes blocks and consequently I miss the right timing for changing between exercise and rest ( I do exercise listening to the sound only ). As soon as I notice a bit too long interval, I have to go to tap the screen, however, it sucks making me lose the whole regular rhythm and exercise effect. It happens every 3 - 4 times. All other Tabata apps I used in the past never showed this phenomenon on the same android smartphone.
Wants a whole heap of personal information I don't believe it needs, and wants to store that information in a cloud or something. The menus don't make sense. It was recommended to me by a friend but it seems you have to know about Tabata before the app makes sense. Oh, and it says timer in the app title. I can't find the timer. Edited to add timer comment, and fix spelling.
I was using the free version and the exercises were not changing. So I thought maybe the paid version might do it. But to my suprise it's the same one single set of exercises that are there. No new ones in the paid version as well. One can build exercise routines but the then nothing comes as part of the app. Overall it's a rip off unless I am missing something. If I am please educate me and I will be happy to give a higher rating.
It's a great app. I like putting custom workouts together for my own skill level and mood. Two request: More custom workout images/covers and more exercises to choose from. I ad a lot of my own but not sure if the calorie burn is accurate for the ones I add. 4 stars because unless you love seeing the workout stats and digital organization tool, you don't need to pay for this app. I enjoy it.
A very fun app. It has quite a variety of ready to go routines that are effective and heart revving. You can also create your own routines. I use this in combination with a weight training app and between using this for warm up, and the other for my main workout, I have most of my bases covered. I just want to find a good meal planning app to complete my ensemble for fitness.
I'm a beginner to exercising, and this app is very helpful for basic strength training in a short time. I feel an epic burn in just 5 minutes. Just hope you could add some pull up type exercises in the upper body segment as it has only pushing exercises, making the workout a bit incomplete.
Great app if you know how to use it! You can make different time and rest intervals depending your level and needs. On top of that you have option to put in many exercises in each training! Good tool to make your exercising brain free, so you can concentrate on the exercises you do
I've tried dozens and dozens of exercise apps. I'm also a qualified personal trainer. This is by far my best fitness app! I regard it as my personal trainer. Easy, no fuss, straightforward. And so convenient. You can basically train in an elevator! The exercises are professional and well planned. Calories of workouts are accurate. You can customise and you can choose the time of your workout by repeating or going straight forward other workouts. Fan-ta-bu-lous! Lol. Love it!
Ive done Tabata at my gym and this is a really good app. 20 seconds reps 10 seconds break with a 2 minute rest. I like the way they are laid out as well. Very easy to follow. The small figure showing you how to do the exercise is good for the newbies. Great stuff. Im training for a season of obstacle racing. Its a handy tool to have and you can do it anywhere.
Overall very good app for my needs and easy to follow, even greater it shows calories burnt. Also great that you can set your own workout and pause times, but it would be even grater to be able to compile your own workouts, but I suppose I shouldn't expect any more features for free.
