Lots of glitches

I am a user of this app who had upgraded to Pro. I do HIIT training about 4-5 times a week, and often have to restart in the middle of the my workout for freezing up and not registering my heart rate correctly. Then recently, it stopped transferring data from my watch to the phone. After restarting both iWatch and iPhone, I tried to delete the app and re-install. It lost all of my data. I contacted customer service and they referred me to an online faqs page of what’s supposed to happen when one tries to delete the app (2 prompts are supposed to show up, the second allowing you to keep your health data). However the second prompt never showed up for me and the app deleted after the first prompt. I tried deleting again as a sanity check since I absolutely do not remember that second prompt, and again it deleted the app after the first prompt. Now my last 6 months of workout data is gone. I guess not the end of the world in the greater scheme of things, but still frustrating that the glitches in the app keeps it from working as it’s supposed to. Will be utilizing a different app, as this one is obviously not trustworthy. 2 stars because it’s great when it actually works.

Insights Data Missing

Knowing for how many minutes I am in each zone during my workouts is why I downloaded the free version of the Zones app, and I love seeing the Zones I’m in while completing my workouts.I purchased Zones Pro for the analytics aspect of being able to see how many minutes per week I’m in each Zone. However, there are no custom reports that allow you to run reports on Zones. The weekly goal chart allows you to see for how many minutes you’re in the moderate/intense zones. However, there’s no way to break out that chart into the desired Zone. For example, I have a goal to burn fat, so I only want to see how often I’m in the fat-burning zone. Someone who’s strengthening their heart may only want to see when they’re in the cardio zone.The app doesn’t have a way to request Support; the Help tab only contains Guides articles and FAQs. Hopefully someone sees and responds to this review!

Great OTF and running companion

I have had this for about 3 months and paid for the pro version about two weeks ago. My main reason for upgrading was that the orangeZones app kept breaking. At least the free one does. And I was not going to pay 70 dollars a month for that. The free one of this one starts automatically when you do any workout so you get the data too, and this is also true for the paid one. So a great way to get extra data in your OTF workouts. I wear an arm band too and it usually matches quite well. Love that it vibrates when switching zones. If anything I do wish one could customize the main screen to show percentage bigger like the orange zones one does. And it would be nice if it counted minutes in the zones if one wanted it. I am also training for a run and love this as it allows me to know my zone and thus pace myself properly, this was the main reason I upgraded and it was worth it.

Dishonest about family sharing

The app is ok. I’d give it 3 stars because it freezes and twice randomly shut down in the middle of a run in the first week I used it. One star because I’m unhappy that it says it’s shareable (through family sharing) on the app page and I paid for the upgraded version. But any app that forces you to pay for the upgraded version through the app is not truly shareable (it will charge each individual in the family share account for the upgraded version through the app). Apple and the developers should be more forthcoming with this feature (ie all upgraded apps should be able to be purchased directly through the App Store and not in app purchases which won’t allow family sharing features). Really dishonest.

Game Changer!

I love this app. It’s like having a personal coach. By using this app, I discover that I was doing a lot of exercises but I wasn’t conscious of making sure I hit Zone 4. By using this app, I can, now, monitor how long my heart rate stays in any particular zone for my my age and goals. I make sure it matches the zones that the Apple Watch uses but this app gives me way more data. I can not longer fool myself into thinking I worked out hard. I let this app help me to be the judge of that. I, now, make sure sure that I get my 75 minutes in the higher zone. I went for a trail run today and I can see the difference. Thank you for creating this app and allowing it to sync with my Apple Watch. The price is great. My only suggestion is to make it voice activate when I go into a different zone. Right now it vibrates but I still have to check to see if it’s a zone higher or lower. Thanks again.

Works well

I mainly use this app while cycling, so my review is based around that. I enjoy hearing the zone sounds while I’m working out, since I’ve had issues with recording workouts with my watch in the past. Recently, I was 55 min deep into my ride, only to notice that even though the HR zones were still sounding, the ride had paused at 4 min. Joy. Next day, it happened again, but a bit further into the ride. Turns out that if you take a screen shot (of a song that’s playing and you want to remember it, easy enough to do without looking at watch) or tell your Apple Watch to remind you to do something later (best thinking comes while I’m on the bike), it pauses the workout, and you have no real way of knowing unless you are able to really look at your watch while moving (hard to do on moving bike and watch is worn on forearm). The app pauses when you are stopped, which I like, but since I would have to stop to see if the app was recording… You might be thinking “why don’t you hit resume or continue or whatever?” Because there is NO WAY to unpause the workout! So, Zones team, please fix the issue of pausing the app when things like a screen shot are taken or Siri is activated, or at least throw in a “resume” workout option.

Very useful breakdown of heart rate zone

I use this on combination with strava and Apple to get a much deeper level of understanding, analysis and detail on my effort and hart rate and aerobic zones. Data is taken in from my device and from strava and then analyzed. I don’t use zones to measure my activity. The analysis is excellent and really useful to monitor my improvement and effort. I can see how much time I spend in each zone and where I put my effort. I have used this to stay in a specific zone to burn fat or improve endurance. I bought the premium which gives even more detail and stats on how I’ve performed. I’m very useful stuff and if you like our data this app is very good. Basically I haven’t seen any other mainstream app go to the lengths this one does. If you’re training for any sort of event or are trying to just get better in performance this gives you a great insight to how you’re doing.

Great cardio and Apple Watch companion

Love this app. Got it when my friend was new to Apple Watch and was looking for a way to monitor her heart rate zones. It wasn’t even for me! And now here I am singing it’s praises. This app helps to give non gym savvy people like me a target for treadmill work so I don’t wind up mindlessly walking at an arbitrary incline and speed for hours hoping I’ll burn enough calories for fat burn. I also appreciate that this app is set and forget! It works in the background and collects useful data without having to be turned on at the start of every workout. My favorite part however has to be that although there is a paid version, all the features I like and downloaded the app to use have been accessible without incessant prods to upgrade to the paid version. In 2022, that’s basically unheard of and it’s exactly why I’m here writing this review. Easy to use, helpful app that does what it advertises without the upgrade guilt trip. Very pleased.

Please add the edit feature for past workouts from other apps!!

I purchased an Apple Watch about two months ago and have been using Zones to help track my fitness progress ever since. I love everything about it so far, especially the graphs and insights available for the upgraded version (definitely better than other apps that charge monthly or yearly subscription fees). The only thing I would really love to see change is the ability to edit past workouts. When I purchased an indoor bike (this was a few months prior to getting my Apple Watch and using zones), I used a different app my phone to log all of my workouts on the bike, but there unfortunately wasn’t a way for me to input the distance at the time—and being that it is an indoor bike, the app’s estimates of miles travelled were very low (0.02, etc.). While I love that Zones allows me to edit the distance on all of the cycling workouts I have recorded through the Zones app on my Apple Watch, I’m disappointed that I can’t edit previously logged entries and have more accurate graphs. I tried using different apps to input distance, but every attempt at this only doubled my workout entries and caused all of my data/graphs to be incorrect in Zones. Please, please, pleeeease add the edit feature or some sort of manual entry for workouts saved from other apps! This would be a lifesaver and help me make so much more sense of my cycling data! It is honestly the only thing keeping me from giving this app 5 stars!

Best fitness zone App

This app has really helped me focus in on that missing element of my training and that is what zone I am in. Before I was constantly guessing or trying the do math in my head while also trying to breathe! This app fixed that. It’s important to note at least for me, this app is an addon app. Meaning I start my appple run and when I am finished this app pulls data from my watch and puts its into readable format. I have not played around with just running the app yet but it says it will show you your zone. I use it to look back and say was I running those mile repeats in zone 3 or 4 or was I dogging it. I paid the 5 bucks for the “pro” version and it’s worth every cent. If you are looking for an app to refine your training. Don’t hesitate get this one now !! Also after about 30 workouts I have zero problems with it missing data
