  1. [R12] ProFit 3/5 · US Not a personal app: I downloaded this and went through the setup. The exercises look descent but the major issue is that they have the one size fits all mentality. During the setup I was hoping it asks me my age, sex, height, current weight and target weight, etc.… so that it can provide me with a “personalized” plan. But it didn’t. I understand all the arguments about the privacy issues and al

  21. [R67] Home Workout 1/5 · US Ad issue: Workouts locked behind an ad that won’t let you close out, even when letting it play all the way through. Ifit ad has close button that won’t work, tried restarting the app and the same ad pops up and prevents the workout from starting.
  22. [R79] Home Workout 1/5 · GB Can’t close ads: The workouts are completely useless as you can’t do them with the app as you can’t close the adverts.

I used this app for workouts on and off for years but won’t anymore because I can’t
