Mind Body - Yoga
doubtful ratingAn app with animated figures for home stretching. Beginners like the back-focused poses and feeling more flexible after 30 minutes. But sessions are constantly interrupted by rate-us prompts, there is no voice cue between poses and the timer switches poses silently, so you have to hold the phone the whole time. Some expected live instructors and real chair yoga but got stick-figure avatars instead of what the ad promised.

About the rating
Store average 4.44 against a text average of 3.64 and only 53% five-stars. Many of the high ratings were clearly pushed by the intrusive rate-us box that people say pops up mid-session every 5-10 seconds.
