30 Day - Plank Challenge Reviews

Thanks team Jozic for 30Day. I am hooked on to it. My kids work out with me too. Can you please also create one for sun salutations? Usually it’s recommended to do 108 repetitions of the sun salutations daily. Stamina for 108 is built over time so it perfectly fits your format. Has a total of 12 poses. You can split it into different level with beginner having to do in increments of 2 rounds. Just a suggestion, I hope you will consider it. Thanks!

The only problem I’ve found so far is that it starts counting down immediately after I click on an exercise. It should give you a few seconds to prepare, get in the starting position and only then start counting down the time I need to work for the day.

I’m doing the intermediate Level 1 and at first I thought it was way too easy, but I decided to stick with it. I’m on day 11 now and it definitely ramps up. It started at 30 seconds and today was almost 3 minutes. I have the free version and the video descriptions are great, and the ads actually aren’t bad at all. I’m looking forward to doing more of their challenges.

But for some reason whenever I go to select a level the screen is super zoomed in and I can’t click on day 1! My friends and I were going to start doing 30Day and I was the only one experiencing this problem! I’m still giving it 3 stars because my friends seem to be enjoying it but I hope this problem can be fixed so I can rate it higher!

I would give this 4 stars because it is really nice and easy to do with the different levels and the check marks make you feel like you accomplished something. The only thing I don’t like is that it doesn’t remind you, otherwise I would say 30Day is great!

Downloaded this because of the decent reviews and plank challenge my family and I are doing. 30Day looked simple, clean, and pretty to ease. Open 30Day ; the first thing it asks is to sync with my iCloud so my information won’t be lost. It proceeds to crash and I have to restart.

Open 30Day again, skip saving to iCloud. Hit the beginner area and it takes me to the 30 day challenge calendar. Where. It. Does. Not. Fit. My. Screen. 30Day is ‘too big’ and extends past the screen. I can’t click day 1. So I figure ok I’ll skip that and pretend day 2 is today. 30Day won’t let you ‘jump ahead’ rendering 30Day useless.

I tried closing and opening it a few more times. Like actually closing the whole app and swiping it off my running apps. Still never adjusted.

What a shame!

I like 30Day. I think it does move up in time rather quickly, but so far I have been pretty successful. My problem is that the volume on my phone turns down automatically. When I start, the volume is up, then by the time it gets to 10 secs. No more volume. Is this 30Day or my phone?? iPhone 8 by the way...

Thought 30Day was great at first, but now I’m finding it to be super discouraging. As a beginner, I felt pretty challenged on day 7 with 35 seconds. Day 8 was a rest day. Day 9 we’re up to 60 seconds?! SIXTY. Already?! An entire minute. How is that even real? When I downloaded, I tried to peek through the program to see what I was in store for... you know, so I wouldn’t waste my time... but it won’t let you view more than a day in advance.

I love it ... It gives you an extra 5 secs on each one each days more than one plank to do it pushes you to the limit and that’s just what I need ... it won’t let you see the next day day challenge unless you complete that day first which is awesome great job you guys

This was a really great app when I purchased it. Now it just needs to be optimized for iPhone 11. It just looks like the screen needs to be adjusted to fit the window. Does the developer want to take a peek?

I used 30Day and previously enjoyed it. However, after upgrading from an iPhone 7 to the XR, the tracking calendar is larger than the screen and I can’t access day one. If I try to start on day two, I get an error. I’ve tried reinstalling two times. Saw a similar complaint about an X a year ago and it’s disappointing it’s issue hasn’t been addressed yet. This is also an issue for 30 day sit up app.

Since getting a new phone, the calendar is bigger than the screen. The first day of the month is off the screen, and when you try to chose a day that is on the screen you get an error message that you have to complete the previous day. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but same issue. Used to love 30Day on my previous phone. Now it’s just useless.

It’s definitely nothing fancy, but it doesn’t need to be. It builds up your tolerance to planks and gets the job done! I’ve used it multiple times.

Thought this would be good fun to add to my daily regimen, but the completion circles are bigger than the numbered day circles and by day 5 I can not select the workout anymore since the day 4 completion circle completely overlaps the day 5 circle. Wouldn’t be bad if there was a “next workout” button or something similar, but completely useless if I can’t select the next day. Is this an X optimization issue??? Fix it please!!!

Thought I found the best app ever until it jumped from 35 seconds to 60.... sorry but a beginner can’t just double their time in one day. I tried getting to 60 seconds three different times and the best I could do was 45 and it was extremely difficult.

Great way to challenge yourself, nothing fancy a daily method to track your planking. Levels range from beginning to advanced. 👍🏾

30Day is easy to use with nice user experience and till day 8 in advanced level 2, it is fine. So until I reach further days I expect it to be harder. I hope.

I wanted to post a picture with this comment but it wouldn’t let me. I have the iPhone XR and it’s almost like the set up for 30Day is to in large for my phone. It’s almost like it’s zoomed in, but I can’t zoom out or move it over. I’m not able to even select day one because it off of the screen.

It'd be nice for a counter between exercises and some indication of which side to use (or when to switch) for some exercises

Ads are hard to close and they make you finish each days workout before you are able to see the next day. Makes no sense that you can’t see what you’re doing tomorrow ahead of time, unless you’re just trying to make me watch 30 ads.

Nothing fancy, but it gets you doing planks. Some of the jumps in time were a little intense, so it took me several days to finish one day on 30Day . Like others have said, it should have a 3 sec countdown once you press the start button to give you time to get into position. Also, I wish there was a way to go back just by single days or look ahead to the final goal (like a preview). It was a bit hard the first time not knowing what I was aiming for. In 30Day you only get to see the very next day and only once you’ve completed the current day. Finally I wish there was a way to record how many times you’ve completed a challenge (like a badge). I’m a beginner with a bad wrist, so I have to do the beginning level challenges more than once before I can work up to the intermediate ones. All in all, though, it does the job. The tutorials are very clear and easy to understand. I like that it has multiple levels (beginning, intermediate, advanced), adds in the dates for your challenge, and that it shows you a daily completion percentage. I did my first ever two minute plank thanks to 30Day, so...thank you!

I like the idea, but there needs to be more info about each level to know where to start. There’s no way to see what exercises are in a level past the first day.

I’d give it 5 stars if I could sync it across my devices. Oh, and there’s no way to contact either support or the developers. Both links give an error. Nice.

I downloaded 30Day but am not able to actually use it. The calendar opens and is completely cut off on the sides so I can’t click “day 1” and it won’t let you start on any other day. I tried using all the different levels to see if one would work but all are cut off.
