J&J Official 7 Minute Workout for Android
Still one of the better workout apps. There's a problem with the "next exercise" announcement. For example, in the 7min workout with warm-up, the next exercise is announced as wall sit, but it's really jumping jacks. The one after is wall sit. This problem doesn't exist if there's no warmup.
App is pretty good but has some frustrating glitches. The "next up" exercise is always incorrect when I start Smart Workout. I accidentally tapped "exhausted" after a workout and I can't change it in My Performance. Randomly glitchy and freezes occasionally.
4.5 stars for the workouts, interface is better after update. Resume from pause does work now. Option to play my own music doesn't work, but I can launch my music app before and it still plays. The smart workouts are good though, and ramp up in time and difficulty at a reasonable pace.
Only thing I would change on this app is that it should do symmetrical workouts. Example it finishes on a side plank, well it should finish on two planks, one for each side... Besides that it's great and fun to do in groups
Needs optimized. I had it call out that it was going to do wall sits and then went into jumping Jack's on my first exercise. Time in between exercises does not give you enough time to prepare for the next one. It would say what the next workout is and when I would go to check the app only shows the countdown timer. You should also be showing what the next workout/exercise is on this count down screen. App needs some work.
The app continues to crash mid workout cycle. I have resorted to using a separate timer and just using the list, but then it doesn't track the workouts. It had been cycling well on an older version.
No issues found since then. For a free app that gives great functionality, i can't ask for more.
Great Workouts best app around , I use this as a bonus workout or if I am short on time there is a big range of workouts Simple but Effective Moves bodyweight only no equipment needed ☺
My height is 5.7" ft and my weight is 54 can you guys tell me if i do the workout exactly like the way the video guides can then i'll have six packs? :D
The app breaks after first round of 21 minute workout. Reinstalling didnt work.
Finally no freezes anymore. Hands down the best free workout app. Still don't really get why the iOS version has a larger catalogue of moves tho.
Good idea, poor usability. I'd suggest to pay a good designer and UX pro, but I understand is a free service.
Best I've found, but don't understand how to do multiple cycles, or what the smart workout is.
Will be given 5 stars if app provided the calories burnt for each drills
Great little app would be perfect if I could edit previous performance, eg difficulty rating
Finally bug fixes came in. Amazing app.
Have totally loved this app for its simplicity and interface design. When will this be available for Samsung gear S3 smartwatch?
App crashed when I pause the workout
Have an alarm to remind you to be fit
Maybe good if it worked, but it didn't
Please keep updating
Once nice, now several bugs on my pixel.
After the last update started work properly. Great app. Thank you.
Great app,
Thanks for the app
Better than fitness trainer
Great
This app provides a great workout! I love the exercises and programs! I love using the Smart Workout feature because it pushes me to grow. I have used this app for about 2 years now. Until the most recent update it worked great. Now, when I try to do a workout with more than one cycle, it crashes after the first cycle. This is a good app. It will be even better once this bug is fixed.
So far, I am very impressed. Free and no ads, for one thing, is something I love. But it def has the feel of a paid app, and on my oneplus one it runs very smooth. Love that it has a number of prebuilt workouts, and the ability to custom craft your own. Well done devs, looking forward to using this in the days to come! Cheers. EDIT while I still love the app, it does always crash when going from the first cycle to the second one, please fix, as I want to use this for longer workouts
Great set of workouts but a pathetic app. Crashes every time when switching from 1st cycle to 2nd. Also, doesn't resume correctly after pausing a workout. Whatever workout was paused goes on in an infinite loop without moving to next workout. There are other 7-min workout app with millions of downloads and still have a higher rating from users than this. I'm going off this crappy excuse for an app
Today is the first time I used it. My session was supposed to be around 15 minutes total with 2 sets of 7 minutes. But the app crashed each time after almost 7 minutes the two times that I used it today. So instead of two rounds of the same exercises, I did two rounds with different exercises each time (the exercises change each time you do your custom session). So, like the title says it'd be fantastic if it worked -- they don't have any permissions when downloading, there aren't any ads.. But, it crashes
The new update is so bad. App crashes after one cycle. I have discovered descripancy between android and iOS like side lunge. iOS notify you to change to the other side while Android not.
Best short work out app because of the smart workout. However it crashes before the second cycle, even with the updated version. Please fix so I can give you a 5!
Application is good for 7 minutes workout only. It crashes every time I do a workout with multiple rounds after the first round. It also never tells me the first exercise correctly. Would be nice to be able to log in and share my progress over multiple devices
However a few things hold it back. I've noticed that the workout reminder doesn't work with my phone. Also, I wish that exercises, like side plank for example, gave you an audible prompt to switch sides halfway through
I really wanted to like it since it has good exercises but every time after I'm doing the first set it crashes and kills my vibe and all the effort that I'm putting into.. it doesn't start back from where you left but from the beginning.! Another thing is since I'm a new user I don't know every single exercise and the app doesn't show you a preview of what you are going to do when you waiting the countdown... Do I have to memorize them?? Really wanted to like it but i think there is better around
The graphical interface and multimedia aspects of this app are very nice, but a number of bugs have continued to plague it since its initial release and have been holding it back from fulfilling its potential, and then when some bugs are addressed, new bugs get introduced. At the time of the writing of this review, a recent release has introduced a bug which prevents the user from doing more than a single set of exercises before it crashes and has to be restarted.
Stops working before the end of the first cycle in a two cycle smart workout. Last worked properly last Thursday. Can't continue the workout or record. One cycle workouts are fine. But two cycle smart workouts no longer work. Liked before this started happening. Will have to find some other work out app.
This app needs some serious effort being put in. Tires out after one cycle and crashes. Talk about lack of stamina! Sort it out and I might improve the rating.

Glitchy as others have mentioned. Had to restart my phone yesterday to get the videos to work. It would be nice to have supportimg documentation for new users. It would be helpful to know if the Smart workout gets harder or adds more cycles as you get stronger. Achievements would ve nice. Importing into the samsung health app would be nice too. The workouts get my heart rate up.
