Workouts++ for Pc

Downgrade 4 stars to 2. So disappointed. Update seems to have changed algorithm or perhaps how data is written to apple heath. I have several workout routines I've been tracking for years with a couple of different great devices. I prefer devices that simply allow me isolate a period of time and record the activity w/in that period. I don't need the data manipulated to ‘encourage’ me to work harder, which is why I don't use the Apple Workout app and why I nearly returned the Apple Watch for a refund. With this update, my usual 5mile run now reports significantly lower ‘exercise’ minutes and lower ‘move’ calorie burn data. If this app is simply going to mimic the big brother algorithm of the Apple Activity app and Apple Workout app, theres no point to it. Really disappointed, hope it gets fixed soon. Original Review: It’s been surprising to discover how many standard issue Apple made watch apps aren’t home runs. Fortunately there are bright minds hard at work to fill in the gaps, this app is a perfect example! In its current incarnation however, it’s buggy, doesn’t always save this app and reaching out to customer support for guidance/troubleshooting has proven pointless. So, we’ll wait and hope the Developer stays interested in the app and resolving bugs. I hope they do, because its terrific - kept me from returning my Apple watch series3 to go back to my Fitbit.

This was a good bug fix update. My review below stays the same but no more bugs. I'm still really loving this app. It's a great tool for run training. V1 review: Worthy of the ++ designation Forget flashy design and marketing. The developer understands runners and training. This app is a cut above the stock this app app and offers functionality that is missing from the big name running apps. The ability to customize the interface is nice, but haptic feedback and dynamic color changes for run metrics put it over the top! I have wanted an app that allowed for speed zone and heart rate zone training on the watch. I haven't been this excited about an app in quite some time. Now my AppleWatch is a real training tool! There are some minor interface bugs and glitches. You can setup multiple interfaces with the same name. If you do the iPhone app will not maintain a consistent sort order and the watch interface will flicker on launch. I assume these will be fixed in future versions. There are no major bugs. This is a great app I have two hopes for a future release. 1) Allow for more zones on the pace and heart rate sliders. 2) Add a metric for cadence.

This update disappointed me. I use this app to track my swimming this app. Now I have to choose between 2 rotary fields and the app does not remember the last choice . Later edit : after accessing the configure tab on iPhone the workout list on the watch app updated itself to the old list . I also noticed that the app will not record a 2 lap swim , also the lap counter is constantly 2 laps behind ( but it records the distance correctly after finishing the workout ). Also the app does not display the last workout track ( I saw this both for biking and for outdoor swimming ) . The track magically appears after you do another workout . I know the app is free but I hope you get to iron out the bugs because the app is really nice .

I actually find the podcast player on the watch to work rather well and it’s incredibly useful. Navigating the list of podcasts on the phone is super buggy. It seems like a simple list so I’m not sure why it’s so hard to use. Swiping to delete doesn’t work 90% of the time. While scrolling up and down the list jumps back to where you were. I don’t understand how it shipped like this, but the watch app is so good that I am super grateful. I wish the overall design were a little more pleasing to look at, but if it weren’t so buggy to scroll the podcast list I would be happy to pay for this app. (Heck I still would in its current state).
