User Reviews

Users praise voice-guided, customizable timers and the ability to build and share hangboard routines, with strong value when gyms are closed. However, recurring issues include plan downloads and signup errors, frequent bugs around board selection and timer reliability, and a non-intuitive UI with missing features like rest timers, weights, and workout tracking. Board compatibility also suffers from default sticking and outdated options, and support for refunds or issues is criticized. Overall, the app is powerful when it works, but stability and usability need substantial improvement.
Pros
  • Voice prompts and a highly customizable workout timer.
  • Ability to create your own routines/programs and share them with others.
  • Access to other users' programs and a community-driven library of workouts.
  • Flexible, reliable timer that supports short or long sessions and is useful even when gyms are closed.
  • General usefulness for serious training with easy customization.
Cons
  • Plan download and online account signup failures (verification issues, unknown errors) with poor support.
  • Problems with changing hangboards: boards stick to defaults, loading other boards or plans is broken, and board options feel outdated.
  • Frequent bugs and performance issues: crashes, voice countdown stutters, and timer irregularities.
  • Not user-friendly and lacks essential features: can't program rest times between sets, can't add weights, and limited workout tracking.
  • Requests for features and guidance indicate missing explanations and planning tools.

Well thought out for training, but I wish it had an update, where you could view the full workout during the workout.

This is an absolutely fantastic app for an engaging workout with voice prompts and a time that’s very customizable!

I just downloaded the app and think the custom planning is nice... but playing with the app, it seems I am unable to download any online plans. This was after I had to create a new account with a different email since I could not resend the verification email to the first email address I would have liked to use. My main gripe is that the plan download does not seem to work at all.
