Fitness App is better for users seeking a comprehensive, customizable workout planner, especially those who appreciate visual guidance and progress tracking, despite recent stability issues and paywall complaints.

Fitness App offers detailed workout plans, video tutorials, and progress tracking, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced users. While it faces recent complaints about stability and a restrictive free tier, its long-term users praise its effectiveness and customization. Home Workout, despite its higher lifetime rating, lacks review data for a direct comparison.

  1. [R5] Fitness App 5/5 · US What you’re looking for!!: Best fitness app I have tried . Step by step workout plan with videos. Easy to use
  2. [R6] Fitness App 3/5 · US Workouts: Some of the workouts are very high sets and reps for the average person, and even tho I said I don’t have a bench it won’t adjust the workouts that require a bench. Overall tho a very good app for someone who needs a free workout plane.
  3. [R9] Fitness App 3/5 · US 3⭐️: The reason why I give this app three stars is because the choices you have to choose from for like your meals. It’s very limited like I can’t put my own personal meal and say this is what I ate today or type the name in and that mail pops up there’s none of that. it’s only specific meals that’s already programmed into the app that you’ll see and you have to choose from and if you’re not havin
  4. [R24] Fitness App 5/5 · US amazing resource: such a great app to use in the gym OR at home. really good for beginners to correct form and inform people to make a solid plan.
  5. [R3] Fitness App 3/5 · US What's up with the update?: Now the exercise GIF doesn't load, fonts are HUGE. Do you check how it looks on different screen sizes? · translated
  6. [R10] Fitness App 1/5 · US Extremely deceptive, lacks basic features: I wanted so so so badly to give this a solid 4 stars. It’s a little difficult to navigate but you can learn. It’s a little confusing to set up but you can learn. I was ready and willing to give it an easy 4-star review and start recommending it. Boy am I glad I **DIDN’T**! For the first week of using it, I could see the calories burned, could set the rest
  7. [R20] Fitness App 5/5 · US Amazing workout plans: I mean this app is great it has a good tutorial good workouts only bad part is everything other then workout plans were premium but what do u expect from a free app
  8. [R2] Fitness App 5/5 · US Mi app favorita para entrenar: Llevo usando la app por casi 4 años y me encanta 🫶🏽 Full recomendada
  9. [R8] Fitness App 5/5 · US Excellent!: I’ve been using this app for years. Effective with lots of options! Bravo!!
  10. [R16] Fitness App 2/5 · US Heart rate disappeared: I didn’t know why the heart rate disappeared when i start the workout out in the app, it was before very useful!!?
  11. [R18] Fitness App 3/5 · US Review: It was great until recently that it keep freezing and I have to delete and install every time now
  12. [R4] Fitness App 1/5 · US Unhappy: I get in a grove with this app and then next thing I have to pay for it. At least wait for a month or so I can see some results!
  13. [R7] Fitness App 1/5 · US Paywall: Used to be able to use basic features free. Now you only get 3 days.
  14. [R12] Fitness App 3/5 · US 7 bucks a month is too much.: For 7 bucks a month, no way. I would buy the app for 20-25 bucks, but like this... I'm deleting it. · translated
  15. [R22] Fitness App 5/5 · US Excellent support: After the update, there was a problem with syncing to my watch. The team responded quickly and helped. · translated
  16. [R48] Fitness App 5/5 · US A Perfect App: First App that let me make my own workout program for free, amazing demonstrations and planning capabilities, and once again it’s free to use the basic tools. Exactly what i was looking for and exceeded my expectations.
  17. [R19] Fitness App 1/5 · US Lousy: I’ve been using it for over two years, but lately it keeps closing on its own. I have to open it every time I exercise, and it’s annoying that it keeps asking for permission to check my heart rate, something I’ve always refused. It’s stressful using it, and I hope they fix it.
