This new update removed the ability to drag exercises around to reorder them and instead you have to chose "Move up" or "Move down". I mistakenly thought the author deleted my original 3-star review, and it was Google Play messing up. The app is certainly good (I even paid for the no-ads version), I hate not having that functionality and would like to see it come back and he seems like a nice person over emails. Sorry for the misunderstanding!
Looking for an app that has almost everything? Look no more. I've been using this app for the last five years. Today, for the first time, I had a problem. Zoltan responded immediately and solved the problem in no time. I've also tried much more expensive apps on the market, but none compare to Progression. Some small things are missing, such as calendar view, and a few other little things, but the app is worth the investment.
Great app as a whole. But there are one or two things that bother me. First is the exercise search. If I want to search for incline dumbbell bench press, typing in "dumbell incline" returns no results, but "Incline dumbbell" does. This leads to me thinking the app doesn't have the exercise just because I didn't type it out exactly how the app has it. Secondly is support for warm up sets and RPE and %1RM would be great.
Download this if you would like to lose all your data and workouts. I was a big fan before upgrade, paid for premium, but am unable to resync anything for some reason... It's not worth setting everything up again honestly
Amazing app. Absolutely love it. Already comes with a bunch of pre-loaded exercise and workouts, and has the option to add new exercises and routines that are missing.
Ahhh man they messed it up 😩😩 I used to be a fan of this back in the old interface. Was clear with pictures, straight forward. This new interface is boring, just another app, unengaging... Go back to old school!!
This used to be a great app, right until the major update. Unfortunately, the update really screwed up a lot of things. Here are the things that absolutely need to be added back asap: - full backup and restore (how are we supposed to change phones without losing all data?), - sync with Google Fit, - take weight and repetitions from the corresponding set in the previous session, not just from the previous set in the current session, - showing the rest timer even when it goes below 0:00. Thanks!
I love this app - nothing comes close in my opinion. Just one thing - during a workout I will use the notes or comments feature and refer back to it for my next workout..but how do I view these? If I go to 'history' and then click on the workout I can't see any notes. How can I view these?
Was there a recent update? The font changed and the app has become laggier to input. The plate calculator is incorrect too. I've used this app for years with no complaints. Please let me know what changed. I will revise my app if this is fixed.
I absolutely love this app, and it has been a major reason for me staying with my schedule. However, sometimes after completing a set, the rest timer won't start automatically, and I'll be left wondering when my next set will start, until I look at my phone again. It rarely happens, and with no recognisable pattern, so I guess it's hard to debug, and it's just a minor issue. Also, the exercise images aren't being downloaded, and the privacy policy page is broken. Thank you so much for this app!
This is the most straightforward workout tracker I've used for Android. The only thing I wish it had is the ability to use a desktop program or app to create workouts and sync those with the mobile app. It can be a little tedious adding a long term program that varies from week to week (percentages, variable reps and sets, etc.), but that's the only thing I can think of that would make this thing absolutely perfect for me.
I really liked the app and decided to pay for it a year back, but now I'm fed up with it. It has twice lost my whole history due to some bug, first after 77 workouts, and now after 61 workouts. A small part of the data remains but most is lost. After the first time I decided to simply start my log again from scratch hoping it was some weird fluke. Now that it happened to me again - well, I just need to throw it away. EDIT: The problem is with my Xiaomi phone. Only fair that I change the rating accordingly, because outside of the issues I'm having this is the only workout tracker that I like.
Overall a very good app. It's easy to navigate and use, has a good interface, and supports backups on drive, which is convenient. I haven't encountered any issues/bugs in >1 year of using it. Since you can setup your own workout schedule, it's useable with most programs. One small downside is that there's no support for percentage-based weight progression, so if you're doing 5/3/1 or something similar you'd have to calculate the weights somewhere else.
Really great app. By far the most features and best functionality of anything in its typr, but it does one thing I really hate. The timer automatically opens the app when it's finished, which is functionality I would love to turn off. The timer is useful, but the number of times I've accidentally entered something into the app when I didn't want to because the window popped up without warning while I was typing on messenger or similar is unreal.
Not a big fan of this update as someone who has been using the app for many years. When I imported my information from the previous version, the import didn't exactly translate very well and I had to go back and edit the program to bring it back to it's original state. I found it somewhat tedious to rewrite my program, as the first two exercises of every workout were removed from the superset. I found the process for writing down the supersets to be much less intuitive than the older version.
I've been a fitness buff for decades. Just used this app for the first time. It has room for improvement of course, but it's incredibly amazing in many other way. Needs more bodyweight cardio exercises. Love how it has a shortcut that takes me right to my music player. Immediately syncs to Google Fit after your workout. Totally customizable workouts and fitness schedules. This is definitely a tinkerers delight.
I have been using this app for over 3 years, I love the simplicity but also the amount of information you can feed into it if wanted. it is easy to program workouts and also change them on the fly, also your complete history of an exercise is shown when you are performing an exercise which is invaluable. I can't recommend this app enough, best fitness tracker!!
I've used this app for years and it's done about 90 percent of what I need very well. I guess it's going under a revamp... My workout routines are gone. I have to use my history to pull up a workout. I changed settings to lbs but my past sets are kg so I'm not sure where to start without a calculation. Google fit sync is gone... I'm just a sad panda. This morning's workout is super frustrating. I guess if your a new user, this app is gonna be awesome. It does look slick now.
Used to be my go-to app. Paid for the pro version. Now, it keeps deleting my created workouts on my devices. Nothing will save. I think the most recent update bricked the app. But very frustrating all the same. I was halfway through creating a new workout and before I had time to go back and insert all the reps/sets, it already deleted it. There is a save option but I just didn't think it would self delete so quickly.
Bought the app because I liked the no-fuss approach. Since then, my complete workouts and history have been deleted twice in the last 3 weeks. I was also under the impression that I was syncing to Google Drive, but I can't find anything in my drive that even remotely appears to be Progression data
The app is really good. I like the interface. It feels clean and well organized. I purchased the pro version and the statistics and analysis are really helpful. It only misses a calendar option (you have the workout history, but it is not the same). very good job developer. If it ever gets the calendar, I will update my review to 5 stars.
Used to be a simple if slightly buggy fitness tracker, very feature-scarce but I didn't mind that. I paid a small fee to unlock it and was happy with the barebones experience because it was all I needed. Now, the dev has locked basic features behind a costly subscription, a laughable proposition considering how lackluster the app is and likely will continue to be. Avoid, there are much better options out there. Reddit recommends FitNotes.
