   WAY too fast. If you like a fitness video like I do and get up or down when transitioning like your life depends on it, then this is for you. U just finished one of the exercises and everyone on screen is already up and starting the next one. It’s so annoying. And I’m 39 and 150lbs and can’t just jump up to the next thing, and that says something about the pace of these videos. Very disappointed.

   Tuna off. Always pauses work out during your work out for no reason. Big distraction and annoying.

3. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Mediocre at best. Whoop, Garmin, Fitbit, strava, Athlytic do it much better

4. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Money. It cost money!! I was trying to workout and I was going good! After 2 days of using I realized that I have to pay!!!😡 I was using the free ones then I saw that u had to pay so disappointing.

5. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

   Not working. Please fix. Doesn’t track workout

6. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   I love this app!. But… non of the workouts work on mine no matter what I do I can’t do them! If you could please fix it then 5 stars!😉

7. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Please fix. Please fix time and distance in outdoor cycling

8. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Worthless app. There’s no features worth paying for and the free version is what you already have with Health.

9. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Recent upgrade worsened the app. The watch does not detect a change in activity as it previously did. Furthermore, in selecting the exercise activity, you have to tap a second time on the arrow. Please keep it user friendly with less “taps”.

10. ★★★★★a needed feature is missing

    Need the ability to customize activity coupling. Need the ability to customize activity coupling like run/walk

11. ★★★★★apple Watch and Health sync loses or duplicates workouts

    Loved FitBit WAY more. Got Apple Watch as Mother’s Day gift, even though I said I prefer Fitbit. Had one for ten years. I have not learned the Google health app, but I loved the traditional Fitbit app. I use a walking app that gives me points I can redeem for gift card or money transfer. A lot of time I have a mission with the app, where i have to covert a specific number of steps. With Fitbit I was able to change my goal to match it a bit (step goals were in the 500 increments ). Here I can’t adjust the steps, so I miss it a lot. Also, the steps are not a live count, once again causing me to miss some challenges. If I have a workout in progress , I don’t see my steps, I probably won’t track workouts anymore. Although no calories burned counter is 100% accurate it was nice that Fitbit tracks active and none active and gives a better estimate of burned calories. Here it is only active, making me eat less by skipping meals so my eaten calories and burned ones are more even

12. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    ???. Not sure WHAT the issue is with the Workout app but it’s not working. TRIED to engage today to capture my Outdoor Walk & the stupid thing would not turn on, or GO. A few days ago, I could not get the app to END my Outdoor Walk, and had to turn my watch & phone off to get it to stop. Annoying. YES my app is up to date!

13. ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data

    Count. It’s not accurate in counting steps

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Eh….. It’s got issues. I hate the ring. It never works. Wouldn’t recommend this app. 😑😒

15. ★★★★★an update broke a familiar workflow

    Ruined the app, bring back step tracking!. After the newest update they took away step tracking! I do not like the update. Ruined everything. If there’s one thing I would want back is the step tracking. Bring that back!!!!!!!!!

16. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Monthly challenges are dumb. The concept of monthly challenges are great, and they help when you’re first starting. But once you’re doing 16 miles a day walking, they don’t realize you’ve hit your peak, they want more. It’s always more, to the point I’ve given up on them. Worst system ever implemented as there’s no way to change it. Last year I did skimming in the summer, October challenge was to beat my lap record. It’s cold, I’m not going to swim, lost the month challenge. Anyway, flawed system, if they’d fix, 5 of 5.

17. ★★★★★an update broke a familiar workflow

    FIX THIS MESS PLEASE!. This app is the worst!!!!!! Fix this mess! AirPlay is a joke. Every update gets worse!

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    App tính sai tùm lum. Ko tính kcal với số bước chân

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Doesn’t start my workout!. I tell Siri I’m going for a hike. I tell it to use the fitness app. It tells me it’s starting…open up the app later… it hasn’t recorded ANYTHING.

20. ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data

    Consistent, mismatching, data and calculations incorrect. This app is frustrating because I want it to be good. I used to only look at the three rings, but when I started to count my steps, this app was all kinds of messed up. The watch and the app were always off. My app would consistently read lower. And even when you look at the app and are looking for average steps per week, I would have each day including the current day above 10,000 and it would read 9700 steps average for the week and I have no idea why. Not sure if this is a bug that others are seeing. But I uninstalled the watch and synched it again and still the same error

21. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Ok app. Fitness + is worth imo. Honestly as far as tracking goes i prefer the health app. I hate seeing these awards that i havent completed that i definitely have completed. Since they are the same app essentially im not sure why it didnt load in my old walking data to the fitness awards part. I like the concept of having achievements but this system is only going to be motivating for absolute beginners. If you are already someone who is active it might be more annoying than motivating seeing a task thats not actually something you havent done before.

22. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Can’t rewind or turn off music. I couldn’t find any settings to mute the background music or enable ability to rewind. I can’t drag the progress bar backward and there’s no button to skip backwards or forwards. If you miss an instruction you have to restart the whole class from the beginning and wait till you reach the point you missed. Also why does the meditation class pause when the screen is turned off? There’s no need to have it on for these courses.

23. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Stopped Working. My app stopped working I have tried everything to get it to work even unpair Ing my watch which fixes the issue but then goes back to not tracking my steps again or work out 😔

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Are you going to update to one touch start?. It was working great when you could just tap it one time in your ring would start now you have to tap it twice which if you don’t do that, you can think it started and it’s not and realize you’ve wasted 10 1520 or even more minutes because you needed to tap the start button twice. Bring back one tap start

    Virtue Signaling. Trainer Tip Video: They virtue signal by putting “trainer tip” and “see you next time” in sign language. But they don’t put any of the real content in sign language.

26. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Used to be good. App seems to get worse with each update. I did 2 treadmill/indoor walks workouts today over 40 minutes each and total exercise time is only showing 55 minutes, activity movement hasn’t increased but the two indoor walks are showing with the accurate time. The activity movement is also off … I can do 4 sets of 25 dumbbell curls, tricep kickbacks, etc. and it may increase by 2-5. I can be in an outdoor walk or hike where my heart rate is 114+ and it stops and asks if I’m finished with my workout. I then need to pause and then unpause … this happens several times in a 60 minute walk … so annoying!!! I keep both my iPhone and watch current with the updates. Developer needs to fix and actually test.

27. ★★★★★a needed feature is missing

    Tied of apples incomplete apps. I don’t want to pay Strava to keep track of my personal best 👎👎 I’m tired of apples incomplete apps that require me to pay someone else to tell me what my $1200 phone already knows. No records just stupid awards. I want an award for fasted 5k ffs. There’s so much more I want but this simple thing, letting me know my PR for miles and 5k & 10k like come on. The voice coach whatever it’s called is feeding me stats I can never screen shot and share! Hello Apple! If I need other apps to make my $1200 phone complete then why do I need a $1200 iPhone & a $700/ $800 watch if they can’t tell me what my fasted 5k time is? Absolutely pathetic. Once I got into fitness I feel severely handicapped by the Apple fitness way of not doing things others do. You know what kind of dork I look like rot my friends for having an iPhone for fitness? I look real dumb and am having a hard time justifying Apple and defending it to friends. If I need Strava, Strava works for any phone. Get a clue Apple blue bubbles don’t sell phones.

    complete garbage. more Tim Cook junk

29. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Huh?. This is not a good app. Organization of activities is difficult to navigate. Modifying workouts is done by just deleting them and then manually entering them? Like if I accidentally don’t end my workout when I’m done and then drive for a few miles, those miles just get added to my workout…? Finding fitness metrics is also convoluted with circularly referenced menus. This is Apple 2016. At least you covered it with your glass doo doo. Update - granular notification settings please? Like maybe I don’t want to hear about split settings because I don’t care when I’ve run a mile, but I do want other sounds? But the only option I have for sounds is you either enable or disable all.

    Wish I’d kept my Samsung. I have the newest Apple Watch Ultra and it is by far the biggest disappointment of any fitness or smartwatch I’ve owned. I’d take my first Samsung watch which was the gear 3 over this hands down. For fitness tracking especially, these things are terrible! Please take some lessons from Samsung and make this expensive paperweights more useful for people on the go….and bring back the step counter…..nobody cares about your stupid circles.
