“Recent user voice shows a excited sentiment. Users appreciate simplicity and ease of use and motivational visuals, but report color coding limitations and recurring workout management.”
What Users Love
This app is super straight forward which I love!
Simple, yet effective. Plan and keep track of your workouts.
Something about X’s and checkmarks mentally pushes me to avoid X’s.
Visuals are everything! Thank You.
Pain Points
I wish the finished check marks would be able to display the color I chose with it accordingly.
I do wish the color dots didn’t disappear after you checked it off!
Whenever I try to remove repeating workouts it removes all the workouts that I’ve already done.
You cannot delete a session from a recurrent exercise without it reappearing every time you open the app.
