- [R6] ProFit Bru: I literally have to pay $20 just to work out and 50 dollars for 3 months 🤦
- [R7] ProFit No free trial: Atleast give one month free trial so we can check if you plan is working or not so we can pay for next month. Without testing why would we pay for subscription. Also why would be pay you 20$ per month if physical trainer on gym in Pakistan is charging only 5$
- [R9] ProFit Price: Price I’d too high for a basic workout plan, everybody’s in this to get rich
- [R13] ProFit Paid subscription: Everything costs money. · translated
- [R10] ProFit Username Not Found: When I go to sign in, I’m met with “Username Not Found.” The app was able to accept my payment information, yet not load my username. Can’t get in touch with anyone for help.
- [R23] ProFit Estafan: No se contacta con uno
- [R25] ProFit Don’t purchase: Waste of money. Contacted them with no response. App doesn’t work correctly
- [R35] ProFit Issues with signing in and no response from VGFIT: I purchased one year and the app will not allow me to sign in as it is throwing up an email error. I did reach out to VGFIT, but currently waiting on a response from them. Will adjust my review depending on the response from them or no response.
- [R19] ProFit Here is no option for canceling: Here is no option for cancellation
- [R37] ProFit Te cobran y no tienes como quitar la suscripción: Te cobran y no tienes como quitar la suscripción
- [R47] ProFit Good luck canceling this: Signed up for the free trial and ended up getting charged. I tried to cancel the subscription but they go to great lengths to make the cancellation process difficult.
- [R49] ProFit Can not Unsubscribe!!!: It is NOT FAIR that you can subscribe BUT there is no button to unsubscribe. You need to email manually. Now have been 3 days since I send email, they still yet replied it.
- [R3] ProFit Why are they all circuits?: Not possible in most busy gyms. You will lose your machine if you go to another. Not realistic
- [R99] SHRED Equipment order: App has you using 2 different types of equipment in one round not gonna work in a public gym with equipment on different areas of the gym and packed with people
- [R5] ProFit Options: Wouldn’t be nice if you can include options and we’re doing sets of four. I just hit an add which would repeat the set automatically adding the same weight and reps so I do not have to do independently for everyone. It also would be nice if there’s a place where you could keep notes to see if it was a difficult or easy set and if you had a substitute because not all the gyms have the same
- [R33] ProFit Sub-Par: The application layout looks great, but it is missing a lot of equipment that is in the gym, especially machines. I don’t like the fact that you have to pay the 1999 upfront without a trial. Because once you get into the app, you realize that there’s a lot of stuff that it’s missing definitely needs to have a wider range of equipment available.
- [R38] ProFit MikeS: I subscribed for a year and while the exercises are good and well presented, for the price I expected more. It’s a static app that doesn’t allow any deviation from fixed programs, which can be obtained for free on YouTube. A good enhancement would be the ability to pick exercises and create or modify your daily program. Also a nutrition interface would be nice. I am not renewing as the
- [R43] ProFit Custom workouts gone!!!!: After an update for this application all of my custom workouts are gone; Nowhere to be found. I’m finally canceling my subscription.
- [R51] Workout for Women Scam and expensive: Cancelled my subscription and then received not one but two charges in the same day totaling almost $100!!! Don’t do it! Not worth it.
- [R52] Workout for Women Good, but...: I LOVE this app. Great workouts for all ages. But... I am on the free version and there are a lot of things that I can't do without paying. Still has good options for the free version but please allow the free version to make me able to do more things.
- [R53] Workout for Women Subscriptions: The is a good workout app but the only thing that i don’t like is that it said it was giving me a free subscription because it was my first time using this app, i get the subscription and its charged me 30 dollars idk if i did something wrong but warning, just stick to the free version and don’t be scammed like me 😭
- [R54] Workout for Women Subscription: Cancelled subscription and still got charged for it. No spot in app to manage no place on website either. Went to contact support and every time I hit submit it would say the request couldn’t be submitted because it’s spam. Don’t get app it not free it will make you sign up for a subscription and not let you cancel it.
- [R65] Muscle Booster Workout Tracker So close to being a great app: I subscribed for 6 months until I couldn't take it any more. I did get results, but the experience was terrible. The UI is quirky and lacks some features I think it should (most notably credit for a gym day where I do cardio instead of weight train and some sort of notation on a per exercise basis if I need to go up or down a weight.) If you have knee problems, you
- [R66] Muscle Booster Workout Tracker Hoy es el Día de Salvacíon: ¡Muy Excellente! Gracía y Dío te bendiga de totalimente de los personas y amigos de EL familia! Te amo. Bueno y Hasta Luego
- [R67] Muscle Booster Workout Tracker Mr: So far, so good
- [R68] Muscle Booster Workout Tracker Workout: I like some of the workouts but there seems to be a lot of repetition. I don’t like how you can’t go back and see a workout if you missed it. I also don’t want to pay $20 a month.
- [R79] Home Workout Good but unfair: This app is good and I actually enjoy it . The exercises are challenging and they increase the difficulty level or decrease it depending on your preference what I don’t like is how the interface is different on a different type of phone. On my friends android phone, he can watch adds to gain access to other exercises apart from the customized plan Meanwhile, I am limited to the cu
- [R80] Home Workout How it’s helping me: It’s really helpful for me and I can tell it will definitely help me stay in shape.
- [R81] Home Workout 3/5: Why do I HAVE TO pay to be the best I can be
- [R82] Home Workout Too fast, too less: There are no throughout instructions and reminder for each exercise. Honestly I was expecting better performance with paid options, but nah! There better apps in the lower “ranked” list of ios app ranking.
- [R93] SHRED Membership Cancelled - glitchy and useless ai: I’ve been using the app for almost a year now and over the past few months it has become extremely glitchy The ai does not make adjustments to workouts despite that being advertised, i think I’ve told it over 5 times over the past few months to give me more machine oriented workouts (yes the relevant equipment is selected in settings) and it just doe
- [R94] SHRED Motivating but needs customization: I feel Shred is one of the most motivating fitness apps I’ve used and I’ve used them all. It has just enough of the community element without being distracting or influencer driven. The workouts are challenging and you can customize based on frequency and equipment. So why four stars? For anyone who’s mildly experience with training or weight lifting, you’ll fi
- [R95] SHRED Too rigid: Interface once your workout has started is awful. Doesn’t include all equipment or all options for muscle groups.
- [R96] SHRED Crash / Bugs: This app has decent workouts, but I’m constantly emailing support to find out when a bug is going to get fixed. The most recent makes the app unusable. Do a trial before buying
- [R4] ProFit It was free and good: It was free. · translated
- [R12] ProFit Alright: If you do not want to pay money don’t get I think
- [R28] ProFit Good Plans, Easy to Use: This app is a good start for people who are looking to get into working out or back into it. It takes all the hard work of putting together good workout plans and just lets you get straight to business! For the developers, you should make each days workout accessible from the locked screen to update weight and reps and each workout for that day. It would make things easi
