Pushup Tracker: Club Pushanova

I’ve used a push-up app, in one form or another for 13 years. Prior to this, I used Runtastic Push-ups Adidas pulled the plug and refused to export my data. I have an iPhone 16 Pro. I like this app because it looks decent and was a one-time purchase, but the improved counting accuracy claim is incorrect. Before the update, the app may have missed a rep or two, and that really wasn’t a problem because I can keep track. Now, it’s counting 2 reps for every push-up and that is way more of a problem. As a sanity check, I tested this 8 times, and 2 reps were counted every time. Considering the fact that my schedule is tight and this was unexpected, it cost me a morning workout. I’m going to have to find a more reliable solution. Pushanova engineers, stop trying so hard; the beauty of the push-up is its simplicity. I couldn’t care less about the number of milliseconds that pass between reps. I hate the fact that you presume to automatically end a set after 8 seconds of no reps. In places where push-ups are still used as a fitness test, there is a rest position that can be held for longer than 8 seconds.

I just did 20 pushups and this app recorded one. Not worth the effort
