Fitbod: Gym & Fitness Planner评价分析

Classic free SaS app that makes you make an account and then immediately asks for an auto renewing payment method to do a free trial. Can’t even get to the page to delete your account without putting in payment information.

Once they have your credit card information, they make it impossible for you to cancel. Absolutely a nightmare. The free trial is a bait, they don’t let you see what the app is really about until they get your information and then good luck getting it to cancel.

I’ve been trying for weeks to figure out how to stop this app from taking a payment from my Apple Cash! They are trying to take $69.99 because I did a trial three days through the Planet Fitness app and evidently there was also another three day trial directly through the Fitbod app that’s trying to take out $95.99, but they are trying to charge me both charges and trying to take payment out like six times a day! I have gone through every way possible to get this to stop and I cannot get in touch with Fitbod by email because no one is emailing me back and there is no phone number anywhere. I’ve even talked to Apple and they cannot make the charges stop. Please contact me and make these payments stop!

Has an app purchases can’t have unless monthly purchase

Free trial is great, but I’m not starting something if I have to pay abhorrent amounts to maintain

I’ve been using this app for over five years, and it’s been one of the best fitness apps I’ve found. The flexibility to choose the muscle groups I wanted to train and build my own workouts is exactly why I’ve stayed with it for so long. Unfortunately, the latest update has made that flexibility too difficult. Instead of letting me quickly select the muscles I want to work, the app now pushes me into a guided workout flow that I don’t want to use. It feels like the app is telling me how to work out instead of supporting the way I already train. Please bring back the simple option to pick muscle groups and build a workout. Long-time users don’t all want a prescribed program. Sometimes we just want to train what we want, when we want, without jumping through extra steps.

The videos are helpful, but the app vastly underestimates the number of reps and weight I can lift. For example it suggests 3 pound weight for dumbbell curls. I am doing 12-15 lb for more reps.

im 13. Dont have a credit or debit card. Or any online currency. Just cash and savings i cant use. I give this app all my information thinking ill finally have a nice workout schedule only to be told its 8$ a month.

Would not let me cancel and didn’t help with anything

-Timer can’t be paused -Targeted muscles aren’t shown in workouts—you have to dig to find them -I wanted a full body workout in one workout and it simply would not do all the body in one workout. Kept breaking the workouts into torso, lower, upper or a combo of two but never three. So I had to build it myself. The demonstration videos are helpful. Overall worth more like $25

I went through the trial period for this app and found that I didn’t like for myself. I went ahead and unsubscribed from the trial a bit late and it attempted to charge my apple cash. Over the past two months I’ve contacted support multiple times and even deleted my FITBOD account in attempt to stop unsuccessful the charges with no success. I do not suggest this app simply based on support responsiveness and be careful signing up for the free trial if you’re forgetful like me.

Tried too workout with the free trial and after it keeps charging me 95.99 and its not letting me cancel it

Fitbod gives your data to Strava and they use it to do very weird stuff. Abandon SHIP

This stupid app requires downloading and creating an account before they slap you with the price tag of $100/yr and no free version. Why is this info not front and center before downloading the app?

You guys actually made the app so much worse with this most recent update. Did you even consumer test it with your current consumer base before you launched it? It’s absolute garbage. Change it back. Also, I gave you feedback long ago that you never responded to. I kept it below for your reference. You’re still not providing any ability to adjust equipment limitations in the gym other than disliking whether or not the gym has the equipment or not. And there still no support for injuries. I don’t need something giving me a bunch of exercises. They’re going to stress. Part of my body that are already in pain due to an injury. That said, the app needs improvements. I need to be able to adjust the workout to the limitations of the equipment. It keeps asking for higher weights than the machine machines are capable of. I feel like a penalizes your strength rating when you’re logging sets at lower weight than what it’s recommending. Sometimes it has nothing to do with what I’m capable of and more to do with limitations of the gym. It should be adjusting reps to match the machine capabilities. Also, at 49 old I have some aches and pains that are more chronic than just workout related. It would be great if there is someway for me log injuries such that it could help me either rehab that area or avoid putting an additional strain on that area that’s going to make it worse. It just puts me in a position of having to adjust the workout myself, which I feel defeats the purpose of the app

They make it hard to cancel membership so they can keep on billing you after you are no longer using app.

You used to be able to pick specific muscle groups and have the app generate a workout. Now it just does upper body or lower body. This app sucks now.

Love the app, hate that it constantly nags me to leave it a review. Therefore, I’m leaving a 1 star review in protest for the cramming tactic.

The AI should be more interactive It should be able to link to my gym and also have all of the equipment that my gym has

I downloaded this bc it’s got good reviews and says that there’s no subscription you have to pay but literally the moment I sent up an account it doesn’t allow you to use the app unless you pay $100 a year with your first month free ts is buns

It’s crazy expensive, why can’t they just be up front about it?

I really want to love Fitbod, but I’m now 48 hours into a 7-day trial and still haven’t been able to use the app. I signed up using Apple’s “Hide My Email” and Single Sign-On. When trying to access my account via webpage, there’s no password option because Apple SSO doesn’t provide one. I submitted a support ticket with screenshots and all the information needed for what should be a simple password reset. Two days/ 48+hrs later, I’ve received nothing but an automated response telling me not to submit multiple tickets because it will delay support. There’s no phone number, no live chat, no email address, and no indication of expected response times or service levels. The only option is a web form and waiting. As someone who works in Customer Success leadership, I understand support queues happen, but having customers burn through a 7-day trial while waiting for a response… with no communication, is unacceptable. A basic account access issue shouldn’t require days of silence. I’m not reviewing the workouts, I haven’t been able to use them. I’m reviewing the customer experience, and so it has been disappointing.

I downloaded this app for the pure purpose of tracking and calculating weight increases for hypertrophy and strength. I built my own workout plans in the saved plans option based on my routine. Each week, the same exact weight amounts are calculated for me despite me choosing to calculate new weights. So now I have to roughly guess the incremental weekly increases I want to target and track my history to see if my progress is on track. Hoping they fix this bug as I do like the app otherwise.

The app setup was amazing at first. But the fact that I need to buy a subscription to use it is ridiculous. Money hungry set up.

They charged me a yearly subscription after canceling it I emailed them 3 times for refund and I haven’t gotten a response I had to dispute it with my credit card and still fighting the charge and 99% of their reviews are fake.

It seems the developers hate their users. In this last update they have taken away even more of our agency and trying to force us to go by how they think we should. I think it’s time to say goodbye forever to this terrible application.

Why do you have to pay to exercise

You need a subscription to even have the app. They should care more about people working out than they care about money. Just selfish

You have to pay before you do anything don’t waste your time

The app has a lot of bells and whistles to play with. However, the core of the app is broken. For example, if you have two profiles, one is for working at out the gym and the other is for working exclusively at home. If you mark you do not have certain equipment for one profile, both profiles will remove that equipment. This leads to increasingly bland workouts. The app didn’t recommend squats for legs for over 3 months before I gave up. The algorithm favors a few exercises even if you ask for new exercises every-time. I would recommend a different app

New update has changed the simplicity, I want my $80 back

it collects all your info, makes you sign up and allow access to your health info, then it tells you that you have to pay to even access the app. no free version

Now I can no longer easily edit the muscle groups for my workout — it's now buried 3 clicks deep. Plus "max effort day" being shoved down your throat. After 10 years or so, I think it's time to look for a new workout app.

Not even worth it if it cost money, you’re better off using Notes to track your workouts.

Worked out for five months on this app. Not bad, but occasionally seemed to forget the data and feed me a workout way beyond my progress. Then suddenly I couldn’t log in and I started a free trial just to access the app. Tried to resolve but customer service is all AI and is useless. Total fail

This app is alright if you don’t know a lot or not creative in your gym routine. There is multiple times where I would have to change workouts to make it make sense, because who’s doing Lat pulldown warm up reps of 6 with 130( the machine goes from 110-120, I have to do some weight scavenging) than straight into 4 sets of 8 with 225. The AI algorithm is really bad in this app as it put workouts together that will just burned you out or switching up focusing on different muscle group when you are already targeting a specific one. Great for beginners but don’t bother if you know what you are doing, Ladder is a league better than this.

This app is horrible after I canceled the free trial it kept charging my account for 95$ and it doesn’t stop

Forces me to pay for a subscription

Can’t even try the app have to sign up for trial version to even access the app paid

The app works really well and takes the stress out of planning a workout, but I am embarrassed when I open it up because of the name!

Not paying just to use the app , I’m good

Watch app is very bad , main reasons to have paid app, doesn’t work. Top requested/accepted features stays in requested even after 6 months . As you using app it frustrates and staying with pen and paper would have been same

I didn’t need the ai version of this before you branded it as that and I DEFINITELY don’t need ai “analysis” of my workout.

Really loved this app until now. I found the custom bar option in the plate calculator to be extremely helpful since I use the women’s bar (33lbs) but now it’s gone. Would appreciate having that option again.

This app is a great workout tracker but expect to constantly be adjusting your workout to fit your goals. The app does a poor job with progressive overload recommendations, it has this weird max effort day where you add to junk volume.

I was trying to grow specific muscles like my forearms and abs but it didn’t allow me to do that. The AI workout generator doesn’t work properly. Might as well went to ChatGPT and saved my money but its too late now. Would recommend looking at other apps that isn’t AI slop.

Been using the app for a while now and can’t seem to get a good solid leg workout generated. I’m wanting more focus on legs yet the app keeps pushing upper body workouts which I easily finish. Meanwhile the leg workouts generated are disproportionately difficult or focused on areas I’m not working out. I’ve tweaked and specified as much as the app will allow but it consistently shows minimal effort for legs while upper body gets more attention. The calorie count is as inaccurate as can be at the end of a workout. I’ll spend 1.5/1.6 hours on a leg workout with 13 exercises and it will say I only burned 400ish calories while I do 13 exercises on an upper body day for only an hour and it will say I burned 500-600 calories. Long story short is it disproportionately builds workouts based on your “estimated effort” which prevents getting workouts generated on areas I want to focus on.

I hate it when they collect all your data just to reveal the price later. And if you don’t wish to move forward, there is no clear way to delete your account. You get stuck on the pay page. Off you don’t have. $16 dollar a month don’t even try there is no free version.

I started by canceling my free trail because I didn’t liked how the app worked then it was still giving me $95+ payments so then I went to my settings to cancel it off my subscriptions and it wasn’t there so then I had to redownload the app to delete the whole subscription and my account but it’s still trying to take money from me and payments when I already canceled the subscription

Why pay 15$ it’s cheaper to just go the gym

I would like this app more if it would stop recommending exercises with equipment I have repeatedly said I do not have

Don’t sign up, it’s so hard to cancel and it’s a pain to even figure it out. They don’t make it easy and you have to jump through hoops online to do it through their website! Don’t do it

Workouts no longer make sense. Usually just end up building my own. When I have to do that all the time, it makes me question what I’m paying for here.

Useless app. Gotta pay to use the most basic feature of it.

The algorithm is way off, even after months of using it. It’ll frequently underestimate or overestimate target weight and reps even for focus exercises. There is no workout where I don’t have to manually adjust weights and sets for one or two exercises. It doesn’t understand that if you do 3 tricep exercises on one day that the last one won’t be at the same level as previously when it was first that day. At this point it’s just an exercise suggestion for me but everything else I do manually.

I asked for a free app not free

Why can you drag in an exercise to a superset but not drag it out, it's so obvious. Building custom workouts is like chewing glass.

I just spent 90 minutes excluding exercises one by one because I have trigger finger and can't do anything grip-heavy until it heals. That's roughly 200+ exercises across multiple muscle groups (back, biceps, triceps, chest, forearms, shoulders, plus specific grip-loaded movements within legs and core) that I had to individually tap into and toggle off, one at a time. This should have taken 5 minutes, not 90. There is no bulk select. There is no "exclude entire muscle group" option. There is no filter by equipment requirement or grip requirement. Every single exercise requires you to tap in, toggle, tap back out, find the next one in the alphabetical list, repeat. The UX assumes you only need to exclude a handful of exercises, when the real use case for exclusions is medical limitations or injury, which usually means excluding entire categories. What would fix this: 1. Bulk select with checkboxes in the exercise list view. Let me select 20 exercises and exclude them in one action. 2. "Exclude all exercises in this muscle group" toggle at the muscle group level. If I have a shoulder injury, let me exclude all shoulder exercises in one tap, not 40. 3. Filter by exercise attribute. Let me filter to "all exercises requiring grip" or "all exercises with bodyweight on hands" and bulk-exclude that filtered set. 4. Use-case templates. "I have a wrist injury," "I have a knee injury," "I have trigger finger," auto-applies sensible exclusions that the user can then adjust. Fitbod is otherwise a good app and I want to use it. But the onboarding for anyone with a real physical limitation is brutal, and 90 minutes of tapping is genuinely going to make people quit before their first workout. The people who most need adaptive programming (injured, older, recovering) are the ones being punished by the current UX. Fix the bulk select problem and you'll have a much stickier product.

I’m going to keep rating one star until it stops.

I’m only writing this because the app wouldn’t stop prompting me for a written review no matter how many times I submitted a star rating. Even now, when I’ve submitted a written and star review multiple times, it continues to interrupt me to prompt for a review. I’ve now lowered the number of stars in my rating because I’ve continued to receive prompts to review this product despite having already done so multiple times.

I got this app back in like November of last year, tried it out. Tested out the subscription to see if it was worth it and I’m pretty sure in the same night I cancelled my subscription through Apple and deleted the app, come to find out they have been pulling $16 out of my account every month since then because they copied my card information onto their website and set it up to be difficult to genuinely cancel your subscription. Hopefully they will refund me for these past several months but just be careful when giving them your card information

I won’t let me use the app it just wants me to pay money to use would not recommend

I have had this app for multiple years. I used to love it. The algorithm they used was great and had good suggestions for what I should work. However, within the last few months, they have clearly implemented AI and it is starting to suck. They are suggesting I work out the same muscle the very next day and grouping workouts that don’t make any sense to what it should have learned about me for years. I wish they would just go back to what they were doing before. Might switch to a different app soon.

$8 a month. don’t know if it’s good. free trial too short to be putting down money.

The app is good but I am still finding that it misses the mark on modification of workouts as well as there being no way to make durations and the fact that certain exercises that are common do not show up even when scrolling the multitude of exercises. Still a good app but the last update missed the mark.

Didn’t sign up for this subscription and got charged

I made a account for this assuming it didn’t need a subscription to use because it said “in app purchases.” Unfortunately when I made the account it asked me for an annual or monthly subscription and i was not able to move forward without paying $95 for an annual subscription or $15.99 for a monthly subscription. I do not have that money and I’m living off of social security for disability benefits, And unemployment benefits I only get $180 a month and 90% of the time I barely scrape by. I would never recommend this app unless you want to be deceived. I am very disappointed, After I made the account and deleted the app without paying for a subscription I wasn’t able to get my account deleted regardless.

The week starts on Sunday and there’s no way to change it. It messes up the schedule especially if you take Sunday off. I also think it doesn’t take into consideration your age.

All locked without trial or subscribe

Had me go through everything just to try and force me to sign a subscription 👎

I cancelled during the trial because it doesn’t allow you to segregate body parts.

Did not tell me I had too pay a monthly fee

I download the app and fill out their little survey. Met with an unskippable page for their monthly or yearly subscription for their app. Why? Why would I sign up for your subscription if you haven’t even let me use the app yet. I don’t care that you get a free trial, it’s just a business model to prey on forgetful people. Terrible app design, terrible business model, terrible everything.

Most of my workout routine is “traditional” weight lifting. I like to throw in occasional kettle bell training only days. Fitbod does not have that option. It doesn’t seem like it would be difficult to add in different types of workouts.

Signed up for the “Trial” and just like every “Free Trial” subscription they make you put your credit card on file. So I made sure after I signed up to instantly cancel my subscription and turn off “Auto renewal” to avoid any further charges. Because I just wanted to try it out compare it to others. I used it for maybe 4 days ( The trial was 7 days ) and decided it really wasn’t for me. Fast forward to present day they have been charging me $15.99 since February 1st didn’t really notice until I checked out my subscriptions and seen “.Fitbod”…. Again I instantly cancelled the subscription and turned off auto renewal. The second I signed up for the trial to avoid being charged after the trial expired.. and what do you know they charged me with or without a subscription and with or without auto renewal they will just charge you and scam you anyways

This app has become terrible . For the second week in a row, it has signed me out, and I lost all my saved workouts. I was able to recover some of them from the days I completed them, but ever since the update, my data keeps disappearing. It’s really frustrating, especially since I pay for the service.

Money

The app will no longer allow me to create my own workout plan. Stalls at adding barbell bench press. Do not waste your money on a subscription.

It cost to much

Didn’t subscribe. Charged me anyway
