Contact Orange Zone Training Support

by AppRaja

I have Apple Watch series 2. After upgrading app version to 1.3.1, the app doesn’t work well. I noticed that while working out, the HR captured has a delay. I could be running at a really high speed and I can feel my HR going really high, but the app on watch shows I’m in the green zone. After I start walking when my HR goes really low, the app on watch shows that I’m in the red zone. I also noticed that the latest update says I can see workouts in the app on my iPhone under History. When I go to history, it doesn’t show my workout. The other issue is calories burned is not accurate after the update. At the end of a 60 minute workout it showed that I burned 1000+ calories compared to the exact same workout 2 days ago that showed about 550 calories. After the update calories burned seems to have doubled. Before the update the app captured HR and calories burned accurately.

Updated review as it seems the developer did not read my initial comments.

Connected my Apple watch to my OT Beat via bluetooth to see how the app compares to my OTF report. Made sure to put the same maximum heart rate and profile details. Results were similar, but not as exact as I expected. Having my heart rate coming from the same monitor while using the same zones, I expected closer results. This is while using the OT Beat heart sensor as the source for both my Apple Watch and the OT.

Also once Apple allows the "Always on Display" to be used by third parties this app will be even more useful. I may be in the minority who already have an OT Beat, though I wanted to see my stats while in the floor. For those who don't have access to any of the OTF heart rate monitors, this isn't a bad option.

I’ve been using orange zones for two years and the app mostly works well but seems to have a new glitch every update. I’m super disappointed they took away the heart rate graph and your workout history and put them behind a paywall with the latest update. Charging for basic features and calling it a premium plan, instead of actually adding features for the premium is a cheaper money grab that leaves a sour taste. I’ll be looking elsewhere to record my heart rate data now, I can’t recommend paying for what are basic features on an app with constant bugs.
