Ratings and reviews

Good App, Suggestions for Improvement The app is clear and does tell you length of workouts, at least in the plan I'm using. My rowing machine is one of the simple ones without a fancy monitor. This app helps a lot with consistency and intervals. It works well. One helpful improvement would be to have the stick figure move at the correct SPM speed, like Metrownome (IOS only). Or, have the option to turn on an audible metronome that tells you how long to take from catch to catch.

There are times when this app is glitchy. To the point that I have to shut down the app. It will get stuck on the countdown when the workout is supposed to start. Once I get past that, it's a good app, just getting back into rowing so it is fun at this point and this app helps. Better definitions of light to high intensity would be good.

I love this program so far. It beats the hell out of the LCD display on my rowing machine. You can select the program you want to tackle and the app lets you select the duration, fitness level, number of days, etc. It has a nice visual display as you are rowing and a metronome to get the SPM just right. All in all a nice rowing machine app. It seems a little pricey to move up to premium but I will probably do it.
