Athlete Development-Personal Trainer Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great app but need more updates." May 21, 2025 5.0 My overall experience using the app has been great. I find it user-friendly, efficient, and full of helpful features that support my work with clients. The design is intuitive, which makes navigating through exercises and planning sessions easy and time-saving. I especially appreciate how the app continues to improve with regular updates and new features that reflect user feedback. This shows a strong commitment to quality and growth. While there are a few areas that could be refined—such as reducing time lost to ads when using YouTube videos and adding an assessment section—the app as a whole has been a valuable tool in my daily workflow. Pros I really appreciate the way you continuously work on improving the app by adding new features. It shows that you're listening to user feedback and committed to making the experience better for professionals like me. However, one thing I find frustrating is the time I waste whenever I try to show an exercise video on my tablet, especially if the video is hosted on YouTube. The ads that play before the actual content slow me down and interrupt the flow of my sessions. It would also be very helpful to have a built-in assessment section to streamline evaluations and track client progress more effectively. Cons Every time I demonstrate an exercise using my tablet, I waste a lot of time dealing with ads—especially if the video is from YouTube. This disrupts the flow and wastes valuable session time. I’d also really appreciate having a dedicated assessment section integrated into the system and making it more sports performance.

Very easy to use, very responsive with their live chat team and the way you manage clients on the app is very very smooth. It's great how it gives breakdowns on your earning so it's always clear to see what is coming in and when. Pros I love the customisation of the app and how it really feels like it's your own. It's very easy to use, very professional and makes all my work so streamlines I'm able to take on more clients and still provide and excellent service. It comes across as very professional when signing clients up to my own branded app. Cons I guess I'm not a fan of the way it runs on the schedule Mon-Sun, so if someone signs up and wants to start midweek, their schedule runs from that date, so when writing their plan you have to bare in mind that their 'day 1' may actually be a Wednesday for example.
