Unfortunately I will have to change my review from 5 to 1 or 0 and uninstall it due to they now enforcing you to pay a monthly subscription. I had been a user since they launched and I was grandfathered after i got the power pack back in the day. I have even emailed for suggestions that have been implemented in the past, but unfortunately, I do not support a subscription-based business that doesn't even let you have access to free version with Ads or something similar.

This USED to be a fantastic app, but as with many things, has moved to a predatory subscription model. What makes this move particularly bad is that they had once offered a lifetime purchase, which I had gladly paid for. Instead of letting me keep the simplified version of the app, they've rendered it unusable without a subscription. Awful.

A once great free app deciding to follow everyone else in tech and create more shareholder value, so now it's a subscription model. There are better, free workout apps out there, don't waste your time with this one. It's personalized programs are most likely fed through AI anyway. Congrats on putting up an unnecessary barrier for people just trying to get in shape!
