Ratings and reviews

This app is pretty basic. The graphics and descriptions are pretty generic. The workout tracker is pretty good - better than a notebook and pen (LOL) but there is no integration with other apps like myfitnesspal etc. Biggest head smack problem is that you must choose your machine model from the menu everytime you open the app. Finally, in this day and age it would be nice if the models were not white. I'm Asian and I'm sure I'm not the only non white person to own this app. But whatever...

I like the app, but not having the ability to have your piece of equipment as default is frustrating, and should be pretty basic. I've saw complaints in past reviews about the same thing so it seems like they either don't care or don't want to fix it.

Happy New Year! The calendar changed and my workout logs were deleted. This is very poor programming. I had plenty of complaints before but this renders this app useless to me.
