Personal Best – Workouts 4+

I love this app. The UI is beautiful and easy to navigate. It has a lot of information and detail.
I just wish we could adjust heart rate zones manually since Max Heart rate is a common way to calculate them, but not the most accurate.

If you could add a lifetime subscription, I’d consider buying it for good.

Hi, thanks for your kind feedback! I do plan to add adjustable heart rate zones at some point, I've just been busy with some more-pressing features. But I promise it'll be there at some point!

There should already be a lifetime unlock option too – if you're unable to find it, feel free to drop me an email via the support links in the app.

this app—and concept—is so neat!

everything about it is just a joy to experience: to the beautifully crafted UI, and the photo integration that syncs with the pictures i took during my walks, to the little informational tidbits that compare your workouts to other life events (“you walked longer than the Golden Gate bridge”).

i noticed this app when it was featured on the App Store a few weeks ago, loved it, and purchased the “lifetime pro” installment. it adds a bit more fun to your workouts/workout data, and i’m all here for!

Thanks so much for your kind feedback!

I got this and bought premium because I really wanted another way to slice and dice my data and keep myself motivated. That it has widgets and could help me create a dashboard of sorts was a great plus.

The problems started almost immediately. When trying to scroll down the screen, things stop, nothing is clickable, the header and text that scrolls up overlaps and jumbles. Only closing the app resolves it, but the problem has continued every time I’ve attempted to check the app. Moreover, I get congratulated for workouts from days ago. I just got about five congratulations notifications for workouts yesterday or days prior. All at once. It’s kind of pointless.

Don’t buy it.

Hi, sorry you’ve not had a great time with Personal Best so far.

I’m working on improvements to the notification system as we speak to prevent these issues happening. It’s labelled as a beta feature for this reason - the vast majority of workouts are working correctly, but the Apple Health app landscape is so diverse that it’s very difficult to account for all situations and apps.

The scrolling behaviour is concerning, I haven’t heard reports of this from anybody and Personal Best is using standard iOS UI elements for everything, so this shouldn’t happen. Regardless, I’ll investigate and see what I can do.

EDIT: I believe these issues are now all fixed. Thanks for reporting them and sorry you had a poor experience.
