Strengths

- Focus on psychological momentum over complex metrics ("It’s not about reps—it’s about showing up")
- Strong alignment with behavioral science principles around habit formation
Weaknesses

- No video demonstrations or form cues: "I don’t know how to do some of these exercises correctly." (2-star review)
- No integration with Apple Health or third-party wearables: "Can’t sync my heart rate data. That’s a dealbreaker." (4-star review)
- No customization beyond default routines: "Wants to create custom weekly plans but can’t." (3-star review)
- No offline mode: "App crashes when I lose connection during a gym session." (2-star review)
