dotFIT

This app is to communicate with your trainer at Crunch fitness, and it’s proprietary nature is literally the only reason to use it. Every other fitness and/or nutrition app I have used is vastly superior. The interface is awful. Do you log your workouts under workouts or under logs? Neither one works very well. You have to manually type any workouts into the notes, there is no spreadsheet behind the scenes tracking progress. And after spending 15 minutes adding everything to the note and saving it just disappears. Start over please! Logging food seems a little better, but Nooms app is far more robust. Also, every other app I have tried talks to the Health app on Apple. This one does not seem to, though maybe I have figured it out. It only seems to talk to your Fitbit or similar device. This app needs an overhaul. The designers should look at apps by Noom and JEFIT for some ideas about how an app should work.

It would be great if when you put in the weight for each exercise in the log that it would remember it for the next time you do that exercise so that you know what you did last time and know when you want to increase

I was told by my Personal Trainer to start using this app so they can keep track of my progress. Food entry and food database is horrible. It feels like I have to manually enter every single food in unless it’s a generic entry. Apps like MyFitness is miles ahead of this app. Another major issue is the calories goal “cannot be changed” and is stuck at 2,886 for me when my PT has assigned it to be 1,776. Im told to just keep track myself to not go over. Exercise entry’s also a pain especially when you need to track a custom workout that is not laid out in the app. For now, I only use the app to log in my meals and that’s it. It’s inconvenient and painful to do, but it’s the only way my trainer can see my nutrition with the gym. You are better off with MyFitness App for nutrition (free) and something like HEVY for workouts. All with free options that are more than enough with what you need without paying. I don’t recommend this app…more work just to use. I’d rather use a pen and notebook.
