Bolt – Workout & Strength Log Reviews

by Pssdbt

It seems ok, but a little expensive for what it is. I don’t see the one time payment option people seem to like, but at $60/year I’d be afraid to see that price anyways.

Tracking seems good, but that’s about it. You don’t get any graphs/charts/progress metrics that I can see.

When it says up to six exercises free, it means the exercises WITHIN your workout, not the workouts you have throughout week. Not the routine. So your amazing workouts are allowed only SIX. That amazing Back Day of yours? Forget recording it on here unless you want to pay another membership fee on top of the personal trainer and gym youve had. Just another subscription hog. $99 for an app forever? How long do you think workout tracker apps last? How long do you think developers keep up on bugs and updates. Apps are a business and majority fail in 5 years. Math it up like you do the plates and your macros. $100 aint worth it. Stick to your notepad on your phone you paid $1000 for. Do the work yourself. Or buy a journal. The spending has to stop. I wanted a simple tracker. They want my salary.

I’ve tried many other apps. The customization is great. Makes it easy to work out and fits my individual needs. Tried many other apps, others just fall short. Maybe make the payment a little less. But other than that, great app!

I really love Bolt. It’s amazing how easy it is to design workouts and even add custom exercises. However, I do think that there’s something missing: HIIT timers. Don’t get me wrong, I know that this is for weight lifting, but there are some exercises that I want to do for an specific time and not for a number of reps.
Maybe something else, but this is just a personal taste: I would like the timer to be a little bit bigger, or have the option to just focus on the timer.

This is one of the best logging exercise app I’ve tried but not sure about their $90 yearly subscription... they should drop it to a one time 10 dollar purchase to unlock all features.

I’ve been using this for about 3 weeks and I love it. You can make your own custom workout and go back to it every week just by clicking on it again. It’s really easy to track your lifts and they have instructions on how to do almost every exercise.

The only downside is the pro version is too expensive for me

by CubanParade

The upgrades are great, but you’ll add more people without having to subscribe early on

Great clean and fresh that does what you need in the gym, without getting in your way. Highly recommended!

Need I say more
So simple. I don’t want to think or fuss on phone at gym. Done w pen and paper, I’ve given in and well it syncs and works

by PetiteSpider

I could build the custom routines that I want to track and rotate. Also it syncs my workouts to apple health. Was not hard to navigate.

Beautiful UI, easy to use, and a great collection of pre-made workouts. Couldn’t recommend Bolt enough.

This is my #1 new app discovery of 2020.

If you’re looking for an app to track your weightlifting progress, look no further!

Bolt is beautiful, powerful and easy to use.

The developer is super responsive and open to feedback.

This is the kind of app that exemplifies great indy app developement and is a big part of what makes iOS the amazing ecosystem it is.

Unlike the 10 other apps I tried, Bolt let me create as many custom workouts as I wanted, and it lets you check off the exercises as you go and even has a rest timer.

by Qbsoflyyy

Bolt is honestly perfect for proper organization of workouts. I never lose track or miss what I've done. No glitches, no hiccups, no issues. Plenty of workouts already pre-designated & the ability to add is very easy. Bolt should most definitely not be overlooked!

I had a minor issue with the chart function. Shot them an email. That same day they contacted me for clarification and the next day my issue was solved! Simply a great app AND great support.

Love Bolt! It provides many good workouts. I’m always so sore the next couple days! If you don’t have some of the equipment you can swap out exercises. They have both cardio and strength. Some of the workouts can really push you. Overall amazing app and I recommend to anyone who wants to get in shape! Thank You!

I’ve been working out religiously since 2009. I have literally downloaded every single fitness app and almost every single page the fitness app they have in Bolt Store and I can tell you hands-down this one is the best. The developer actually listens to requests try it you won’t be disappointed

by 1lorean

This is the best app for logging in your workout, creating custom exercises, custom routines, and easily changing weights or repetitions as you progress. Always shows your last weight and repetitions. Easily allows addition of cardio exercises with weight exercises.

I upgraded immediately because there was only a 1-time fee. I’m not paying monthly fees for an exercise app.

Super, super app!!!

by Jerryofthedayyy

I’ve tried (and paid) for so many workout apps over the years, but they all have at least one quirk that drives me nuts. Bolt just works, plain and simple. It’s smooth, designed well, and setting up workouts is as easy as it should be. I don’t use the discover tab as I’m already set in my workout ways, but it is an easy 5 stars when it comes to simple logging.

I love Bolt already and I just downloaded it! I really like how simple, clean and easy it is to use. Love Bolt icon as well, very sleek. I am so excited to use this every single day. I’ve been looking for an app, just like this one. Thanks so much team, I love it! Very impressed.

I just happened to catch Bolt around the time of its release a couple of years ago, and still can’t understand why it’s not #1 in the fitness category: the implementation is flawless, the UI is gorgeous, the UX is super intuitive... it’s a no-fuss, simple-to-use app.

There are two things I would love to see added, though: iPad and Watch support. It would be really great to have this content viewable on a larger screen (hey, maybe even tv!). And, with the Watch, have the routines/reps available for easy access on your wrist instead of always having to look at your other device. Also, with those features added, have the sync across devices with iCloud so that the Activity/Fitness and Health apps will update accordingly.

Other than that, I appreciate all the work the developer(s) put into Bolt, and hope to see it featured as ‘App of the Day’ very soon! 😊
