Moov Coach & Guided Workouts Reviews

by Travs2020

Sometimes the Strap Core connects most times it does not, very aggravating when trying to get your cardio going. I have tried multiple times for this to connect to MoovCoachGuidedWorkouts and simply wont, keeps saying strap core is required when I am wearing it. Any help would be nice to the issues I have been occurring. Thanks.

Ok. So I don’t understand why (beyond not moving a lot) it records me ‘asleep’ when I am standing still for 30 min. Also, I understand it is not a ‘pedometer’ app because it does so much more by why isn’t it at least a pedometer. I walk my dog. It doesn’t record it. I mean come on. And if my phone is in my purse or pocket the health app doesn’t always accurately record the steps. The coaching is ok on walking but a little unnecessary. Circuit basic but gets the job done. Haven’t tried swimming yet. Looking forward to trying that.

The option to edit a workout when finished is not available so if you tell it your done it sometimes records your walk back to the car or wherever as part of your workout. Also my bpm heart rate did not hit 176. I think i would know that. Not enough readily available info to explain what stats mean. You have to search the help section to get info that should be part of A pop up in MoovCoachGuidedWorkouts .

The robot voice before the last update wasn't by any means human-like. There were many complaints against it.

But, this update makes the last voice sound like Beyonce in comparison. The new voice breaks up, sounds absolutely terrible, and is overall irritating.

There are more minor flaws, but the voice is honestly the easiest thing to change to make it from a 3 star app to a 5 star app.

I love MoovCoachGuidedWorkouts . I just wish that there was an open boxing session that can track my punches without having to follow their workout

I think the mechanics of MoovCoachGuidedWorkouts and devices are great! However I would like to see integration with the Apple Watch as a possible heart rate monitor as well as having an Apple Watch app so we wouldn’t have to have our phones with us when we workout. Other than that, the interface, the structure, everything else about that app I love. Integration with Apple Watch would make this perfect.

I’ve been using Moov for over 5 years and love it for biking, walking, & swimming but especially sleep tracking. After a recent update, the sleep portion is now gone. This was a major reason I preferred MOOV over any other wearable. I’m hoping it’s an error and comes back. If not, I don’t see any advantages to buy MOOV over any other competitor

When I tried my Moov and it did not track my progress. I don’t know why but it didn’t. I wonder if it was because I was swimming and it got disconnected when I swam farther down the lane. I am still not sure why it did not work but I still think my Moov is ok and still pretty cool.

I use this every time I run. I love the data, real-time feedback, and Strava integration.

I wish I could pause my run from my Apple Watch. I have to cross busy streets often and sometimes end up waiting a bit.

Have used app for a while for both running and road cycling and it tracks the workouts well. I liked the addition of HR monitor tracking that was added after the first Kickstarter release.

The voiceovers on the outdoor cycling though are off especially when it comes to altitude gains - it seems to track gains from sea level and not from any altitude related to my workout location.

Would love the ability to put HR targets in cycling. Under running section, Open run and Open HR run have the start of what I would like. Additional changes should be able to have multiple intervals with different targets which I haven’t seen the ability to do yet.

by Rbsnl

Custom Interval Training Should:

- Allow users to warm up for as long as they want (not max 5 minutes)

- Add a cool down period

- Allow intervals to be as little as possible (3-5seconds) for high intensity sprint training, not a minimum of 1 minute. That would be a HUGE step up for performance athletes and seems very easy for developers at Moov to implement.

Seems like this could easily be accomplished.

The next step up would be to allow a fully customized workout, not just interval training.

I have been tinkering with app functions before I buy the Burn or Sweat, so I can’t speak to data display or connectivity.

I’ve been using this gadget for some weeks. It has some minor problems determining the sleeping and wake up time but in other situations is perfect.

The coached exercises need some developing. There is no warm up or cool down section before each session so u need to take ur phone few times at the gym to start and setup.

Despite the waking/running, in the swimming section there is no online coaching to make u preform better or longer. And I still don’t know if I should take it off in jacuzzi and sauna with higher temperature.

For this price range, I certainly do recommend this stylish waterproof gadget.

I’ve used the Moov Now band and MoovCoachGuidedWorkouts for a long time. I love the 7 minute workout and even now think it’s execution a cut above competing apps. Sometimes it misses a rep or counts one as bad for no discernible reason but it’s generally pretty spot on. One thing I’m surprised they haven’t fixed is that when you take a photo at the end of a workout, it still defaults to the rear camera. For runs, there are the occasional Bluetooth connectivity issues that others have noted but it otherwise works well, the only downside being you need to run with your phone. With the larger models that are popular now, that’s a bit of a hassle and it would be nice to see Apple Watch integration as an alternative. I would also like to see them update the design of the Moov Now, preferably to something that has a rechargeable battery.

Does exactly what it says it does and then you find out about some of its cooler features like the boxing coach and how well you run! Only thing stopping it from 5 stars is i wish it could track my random workout (like playing ball) instead of its standard coaches

by Review Nickname

Does a spectacular job of recording information and giving you great numbers to work with for analysis on your performance over time.

If you’re a swimmer, I don’t know of any app that is better.

I loved my first Moov Now, (and the initial kickstarter model as well). I used it to track swimming, road cycling and help me develop a proper running form. I enjoy looking back on my progress, sleep trends and competing with my teenage daughter for active minutes (she wins). But when my Moov died after developing a crack, the company really showed how they support their users.

I emailed Moov to ask about support, and learned that my device was out of warranty, but they didn’t just leave it there. Patricia, the customer support rep, helped me identify current offers and clarify differences between product lines. When I decided to buy a new, single black Moov Now rather than take advantage of special offers, Patricia went in and comped my shipping. While a small thing (just $3), it demonstrated to me that Moov is much more than a producer of great products at brilliant prices. More than a purveyor of easy-to-wear devices that make it easy to track multi sports with optional human coaching as well. Moov knows how to support their customer. Great device and excellent company.

I have swam 157 km with Moov Now for over a year. It has worked well for the most part (I think only two instances that it failed to sync and lost data). The readout of my swimming laps and styles are very accurate. Am getting the Moov HR soon.

Hi, as a IPhone 8 Plus user running with the phone has become difficult. Hope for a Moov + Applewatch release. Would be great and a push into the game again after it became a bit quiet about Moov.

I can’t stick to without routines that are boring and intimidating. Moov now and HR bundle give me so many fun ways to exercise. I swim with both devices and get beautiful report I share and brag about my swims. I also run and first time doing a half with the help of the Moov coach. She is motivating and accurate. Since I fell in love with my Moov, I did more workouts than before.

Moov Now really stands out from the crowded wearables market by offering something that cares about your form and actual performance. Its prompts really help me to push harder, and not just specific to one sport but various. I hope to see more Moov hardware to come, though I have nothing much to complain about what I have already! Thank you for a brilliant product.
