Do not use with Anytime Fitness app
Fenway3
I used this app (PT subscription) for 7 years with personal training clients and loved it, especially the tech support which was amazing. Last month I joined Anytime Fitness and downloaded their app. I knew AF had bought out FB but didn't realize that installing their single-person app would take away my access to the one I used for work. And the tech support is slow and useless. I reported the issue 3 weeks ago and they still have not tried to fix it--latest is they will forward support ticket to the appropriate department. So here I am for 3 weeks without access to client records and my $400/year subscription is due to expire next week. What are odds of my renewing? Yup. I would’ve rated the app 5 stars for functionality but am now so frustrated by lack of support that I can’t give it even 1 star.
Very Satisfied with FitnessBuilder

I just want to say that I absolutely love this app, the programs and workouts. I could not be happier with my progress. I love the way my body is looking and how I feel. Their support is outstanding as well. Please keep up the great work - I can see myself being a lifetime user of this app. And the monthly subscription cost is peanuts compared to Personal Trainer time at my gym. Well worth it!
Beautiful, but not intuitive or friendly

Downloaded fitness builder to take the place of jefit - loved the way it looks and the workouts offered but it isn't intuitive at all. When you're working out, you can go in any order but there is no indication from the workout page which exercises have been completed. The thing that caused me to immediately delete this app was when I was standing in the gym on day 2 of my workout plan and couldn't for the life of me figure out how to get to a new day of my workout - the system kept bringing me back to my old workout which appears as if it hadn't been finished but I knew it had. Jefit has features that make it clear that you're ending a workout and you close it out and get a report. Jefit also has a better system of advancing you through your workout - do this exercise then rest, then do it again, until you're done and then it automatically advances you to the next exercise. It also has better notifications that rest is up, etc - the sounds are easier to hear and more predictable. Wish fitness builder spent as much time on functionality as they did the look of it
Worst let down by a developer

I rarely review apps but I'm writing this only out of frustration. The app works great but it's just a blank useless app without the monthly subscription. I'm surprised no one is even talking about this. I've been one of the very early adopters of this app, back when paying 10$ for an app was a big deal. Back then I had access to a big library of workout plans and on top of that I've even paid for the monthly subscription plan a few times just to support the team.Now it all changed. The app is free for everyone with a free access to only barely one workout plan. Everything else you have to pay for through a monthly subscription. Even those paid for the app before. So much for loyalty. All of those early adopters who paid full price for the app, well screw your all. Pay like everyone else... All while so many apps out there are providing similar options if not better for free. I would stick around as I have no problem paying for your subscription if at least you would have treated your early adopters better. Sorry but no thanks.
Great for weight lifting, but yoga a bit tedious

it's the best weight lifting app of the many out there, cardio is great too, but I hope that they can improve the usability of the yoga routines.
Definite downgrade

Just recently upgraded this. I really liked this app and used it for a few years. I think I'm going to be in the market for something different. It seems a lot less user friendly inside the workout. Rest timer is driving me crazy.
Keeps me organized

Over the top on the options. Building workouts is as fast to do as my brain will kick it out. When a client asks how much weight did I use on the last time or what's the heaviest I ever went on this? I am pulling up years worth of easy to read data in less than a minute. That's fast! No guess work, I got the facts, all saved in fitness builder. Clients know exactly what to do and on what day and I know exactly when they compete it, so I can correspond to them immediately. It doesn't get any better. I don't know who loves it more, me or my clients. Fitness builder had Great updates and always unbelievably fast on responses. If you haven't tried it, your missing out. Fast and understanding with a crisp professional style. Works Great!!
