Reviews
Love the idea, if it’d work.

Downloaded this app yesterday and have yet to have it open without then popping up a sync error. Given all of my workout data would come from its Apple Health integration, and not from the built in workouts it offers, that pretty much makes it useless to me. I am holding our hope that an update resolved the issue because it really is a unique idea, not to mention appealing to us folks who grew up with an Atari console in their wood paneled living rooms.
Want this to work

I would gladly pay for this app to have regular updates and sync with my phone. I love Atari games and the idea of earning gaming points for working out. Please update and fix. Charge for it if you want
Just downloaded

Poorly. Smh just downloaded and now it doesn’t want to sync. I should have read the reviews beforehand. Delete
The worst

This is the worst, most useless health app ever. I downloaded it to connect to the Walgreens app but couldn’t get it to work. Kept it for a while, kept trying to connect without success. I tried to use it independently but it NEVER worked, even after multiple reinstalls. Hasn’t been updated in forever. Glad I didn’t pay for anything. Bottom line: don’t waste your time. There are some great apps out there from which to choose. Search “exercise apps“ if that’s what you were looking for.
Login

The only login is through Facebook and walking is not listed as an exercise in cardio. I'll wait for an update before deleting.
Not very usable

Requires login with Facebook as the only option. I don’t use Facebook anymore and this means many of the features are useless to me The workout plans are not very user friendly to setup. I choose the default options and the first workout day does not default to today! I couldn’t even start a workout after getting a workout plan setup. It wanted me to wait two days until Monday. The whole point of this app is to exercise and the app won’t let me do that. The exercises themselves need some help. They only have one picture per exercise and lengthy text which we are expected to memorize with no further demonstration of the steps of the exercise. There should be videos for each exercise or at the minimum pictures of each step. This should carry over into the workout section so I know what to do while attempting to do a workout. Currently I’m only able to check off that I did an exercise and I’m not shown how to do it. Not a very user friendly app. It feels like Atari outsourced the work and the app was developed against a schedule and not against a good user experience. Poor first attempt. I will not be using this as my daily fitness app.
Terrible company

Hey "Atari," why don't you make a game, instead of copying Wii Fit and suing Llamasoft? Shameful.
This app makes no sense
Kvocal
I am not sure what Atari created here but this app is terrible. I'm not even sure how you were supposed to use it and how you're supposed to do your workouts. This is a poor use of the Atari brand and I would recommend that no one, I mean no one buy this app.
Not very accurate
Morpheus360
The one thing I count on the app to do it only does half the time. I use the app to track my step count but at least every other day it fails to track any steps. No reason to use this app if it's not gonna do its main function. I guess I'll go back to the Fit Bit app.
