Cinch is a new way to meet your weight loss, health and fitness goals. Track your progress, stay motivated, and become a leaner, sexier you! Cinch uses a combination of motivations that keep you on track towards your goals.
Features:
- An innovative weight loss tracker that shows your progress. Instead of just showing you how much further you have to go, Cinch also shows you how far you've come!
- Motivation right when you need it most. Cinch shows you a feed of hand-picked motivators to get you away from temptation and keep you on track.
- An automatic heart rate tracker* that works with Android Wear devices to track your heart rate throughout the day and during workout sessions.
- An integrated step tracker that shows your history, and your progress toward your step goals.
- A unique calorie tracker that shows how many calories you've burned and shows you how your steps and exercise impact your calorie burn. The exercise tracker works with any application that reports your workouts to Google Fit, including RunKeeper and Endomondo.
- A reminder for when you've been sitting too long and need to get up and take some steps.
- A beautiful design that makes sticking to your goals a beautiful experience!
* Heart rate tracking requires an Android Wear device with a heart rate monitor (e.g. Moto 360, LG G Watch R, Asus ZenWatch, Gear Live, Huawei Watch)

Really good... Just what I was looking for Nexus 5 and moto 360. Continuous heart rate monitoring is absolutely brilliant and the app is well designed. I personally don't use that motivation stuff and so wouldn't mind seeing an option to disable it. EDIT: I had some queries about some things and they have been answered very quickly and usefully. Thanks. PS. I also find the step counter on Cinch to be more accurate.

Overall Great App. Heart rate tracking works on Huawei watch. Need to improve (must) - Once heart rate tracking is on we cannot turn it off. Even if I set the tracking to "never" green light will still be ' active ' on the watch. Good to have (optional): - By default app shows average heart rate per hour. It would be great to have 2nd screen like table with last XX heart rates. - Need zones for heart rate, so the watch will vibrate if we have to high heart beat on "workout mode". Once it done, 5 stars app !

Great app I like it, but the step history page has a few issues. The older history chart's window doesn't accurately show what fays you are viewing. It is like half a frame off. Also if I try and swipe fast to go back to a date a while a go it switches pages. It would take way to long to swipe slow and get to that date. Would be nice to click the bottom, older history chart and have the top on automatically go to the date in the top chart.

Love the app! It's the only app that I can find with a dedicated HR workout mode. Question though, how do you stop the workout mode on an Android Wear device? (Huawei watch) That's the only issue I have is the fact that it will keep the HR monitor running long after I'm done with my workout. Tapping on the Android Wear app doesn't stop it, Tapping on the app "check HR" doesn't stop it. Please let me know, other than that great job!

Could Easily Be 5 Stars I downloaded this app for 3 reasons. It's heart rate features which work great. It's calorie conversions which also works, but can lag a bit. And finally I wanted it to count the steps from my LG G watch R, and this is what I'm having issues with this application. It logs the steps from my phone (Note 4) that uses google fit as its step counter, but when I set my phone down any steps that are counted with my watch won't log into this app. Google fit will keep track of my watch, and Cinch won't.

Workout mode is nice. Open the Cinch app on your smartwatch (I have the Huawei watch) and tap to start workout mode, and off it goes. Problem is, how the heck to you get it OUT of workout mode after your workout is done? Because it keeps the heartrate lights on the watch turned on and keeps chewing up the battery.

Thank you for the support! The exercise recorded under calories comes from any other Fit enabled applications (e.g. RunKeeper, Runtastic, or manual entry into the Google Fit app). Step differences between the apps is due to using different streams of data. Cinch seems more accurate to me, but let me know if that's not the case for you. THX!

Three major issues Was hopeful, but ... 1. It's reading my "heart rate" as 120 all night while my watch sits on the charger (Moto 360). 2. It's basically doubling my calorie count data in Google Fit. Adds a full day of calories burned on top of Fit's own calculation. 3. Heart and step history don't show. Sticks at "refreshing", then fails. Worked first two days only.
It's ok, but on how does it actually help you, I thing it should be more in your face. If you don't open the app yourself, nothing happens. I saw no help or documentation about it. The smart watch / smart phone "you are sitting for too long, get moving" sync does not work. I move around with the watch, but I leave the phone laying down, and it still tells me to get moving.
I am liking the app so far and mostly use it for workout mode. Only issue I have is that if I forget to turn off workout mode it kills my battery. Can a notification be added letting me know it is still running.
Prior to the trial expiring everything was great. Paid for premium and app ceased to function. Can no longer open crashes constantly more than 100 bug reports in 7 days. Samsung s7 edge and huawei w1 please fix I was very happy hence committed to paying...... Now I have a pointless waste of storage
I use this app to measure my heart rate throughout the day and it works great. Unfortunately it has started crashing intermittently in the background and every time I open it. I have sent some stack traces and it seems like a pretty simple error. I will increase my rating once it is working again. Wow, this has a clear programmer error since the last update that causes it to crash every time it is started. I can't believe that the developer hadn't fixed the obvious problem by now. At least roll back to the last version that worked flawlessly.
Wasn't worth it I wanted this app mostly for injecting my heart rate history into Google Fit. It did that alright. At the same time it's a poorly laid out app that spams me with messages and only has a two week trial. Definitely not worth paying for.
Wow, this is what I've been looking for! Great app, works great so far. Is beautiful and smart. Only thing it needs is a widget, and maybe some customizability, like changing the background images like you can with S Health. Also the weight loss part with breaking tiles is poorly laid out. Should have a graph for tracking weight loss instead.
The Idea is golden. The execution needs work My main gripe is with the design itself. Its half material, half holo. Consistent design is the key to a good UI. Work on that and you've got a hit.
Needs work In workout mode, the heart rate value could be made more prominent and the extra text like instructions and title could be removed. The workout notification displays the app name PerfectCinch instead of Cinch whereas it should be displaying the last workout HR. Opening the note shows its checking the HR but it should actually just open back to the workout mode. The Hr graph should let you drill down to each min for more details instead just min, max and avg Hr for each hour.
Very Useful This app is what I have been looking for. It actually makes the heart rate sensor on my LG G Watch R useful since it automatically checks my heart rate and logs it. YES! Now...the app itself can be better. It is a very nice start but I would like to be able to hide and/or rearrange the different pages. The app opens to 'Weight' but some of us are only interested in the 'Heart Rate' page. It would be great if I can either hide the 'Weight' page or at least choose which page the app opens to.
Best on Android Wear for continuous HRM Loving Cinch so far. Given the beta state for most Android Wear apps, Cinch is a step ahead of the rest. I've set Cinch to record my pulse every 5 minutes. It gets reported out each hour so I'm guessing Cinch takes an hourly average. This is perfect because I image my Moto 360 only has a 25-50% success rate in terms of measuring my pulse. Thus, the hourly average looks like it smooths that our. I'll probably pay the $1.99 or whatever it costs to keep this permanently. One of my favorite Android Wear apps.
Not functioning!!!!!!!! It's keep saying that it's stop working!! Explain please
USELESS. every time i try to use it, it just closes and sends me back to main menu of my phone
Wont let me in Every time i try to open it all i grt is it has stopped working and i just downloaded it
App instantly crashes. Samsung S7 Edge running Android 6.0 and Huawei Smartwatch.
It's not quite there yet The heart rate monitoring it's good but the pedometer needs work in regards to accuracy. It's nowhere near my phone's internal pedometer nor is it close to my watches pedometer. Off by about 4k steps!
I have down loaded this up, but when I want to go into activate it throws me out immediately...
App crashes 15 - 20 times a day while running in background on my Nexus 6. Uninstalling.
Workout mode rocks! Hi, I'm a fan of your workout mode, can you please give more function to it? Such as target heart rate and maximum heart rate alert. Thankss
I like what the app does, but on my G Watch R, I'd love for the heart rate to be displayed prominently. Also so it can run in ambient "always on" mode.
Still works as intended but the app it self can use an UI upgrade. Has not received an update in almost a year while much has changed to Google Fit.
Still got some bugs but better than any other There is some bugs when you reset the android wear watch. I have to remove the app from the phone and reinstall it. Overall i like it.
Doesn't not run on Google pixel, app would constantly crash, couldn't use at all.
I can't even get it to open keeps crashing :( looks like it would be a great app tho
I can't use it, It crashes after I input my information. :(
Steps count don't match google fit, using LG urbane And Galaxy S4 GPE
Crashes immediately when opened. Using S7 Edge and Android 6.0.1
Great heart rate tracking Would like a feature to export heart rate history to csv file on phone. This would be very useful if your doctor wants a heart rate history.
App keeps closing on Nexus 5x 7.1.2 can't open on phone but on watch is OK. Heart rate doesn't sync o. Google fit
Could do with some help. One Plus 2 with huawei watch, app instantly closes upon opening. Any support available?
Continuous capture for LG G Watch R Perfect for capturing heart rate throughout the day from LG G Watch R and have it sync to Google Fit. Very impressed.
When I open the app, it just shows main screen for a second and closes itself
