Cinch Weight Loss and Fitness for Android
I use this app to measure my heart rate throughout the day and it works great. Unfortunately it has started crashing intermittently in the background and every time I open it. I have sent some stack traces and it seems like a pretty simple error. I will increase my rating once it is working again. Wow, this has a clear programmer error since the last update that causes it to crash every time it is started. I can't believe that the developer hadn't fixed the obvious problem by now. At least roll back to the last version that worked flawlessly.
It's ok, but on how does it actually help you, I thing it should be more in your face. If you don't open the app yourself, nothing happens. I saw no help or documentation about it. The smart watch / smart phone "you are sitting for too long, get moving" sync does not work. I move around with the watch, but I leave the phone laying down, and it still tells me to get moving.
Workout mode is nice. Open the Cinch app on your smartwatch (I have the Huawei watch) and tap to start workout mode, and off it goes. Problem is, how the heck to you get it OUT of workout mode after your workout is done? Because it keeps the heartrate lights on the watch turned on and keeps chewing up the battery.
Prior to the trial expiring everything was great. Paid for premium and app ceased to function. Can no longer open crashes constantly more than 100 bug reports in 7 days. Samsung s7 edge and huawei w1 please fix I was very happy hence committed to paying...... Now I have a pointless waste of storage
App keeps closing on Nexus 5x 7.1.2 can't open on phone but on watch is OK. Heart rate doesn't sync o. Google fit
USELESS. every time i try to use it, it just closes and sends me back to main menu of my phone
App crashes 15 - 20 times a day while running in background on my Nexus 6. Uninstalling.
Could do with some help. One Plus 2 with huawei watch, app instantly closes upon opening. Any support available?
I can't even get it to open keeps crashing :( looks like it would be a great app tho
App instantly crashes. Samsung S7 Edge running Android 6.0 and Huawei Smartwatch.
To disable the notification, and change the period between them. I had to disable notifications for now.
It crashes after I input my information. :(
I have down loaded this up, but when I want to go into activate it throws me out immediately...
Crashes immediately when opened. Using S7 Edge and Android 6.0.1
Doesn't not run on Google pixel, app would constantly crash, couldn't use at all.
Every time I tried to open the app it crashed.
It crashes after I input my information. :(

Was hopeful, but ... 1. It's reading my "heart rate" as 120 all night while my watch sits on the charger (Moto 360). 2. It's basically doubling my calorie count data in Google Fit. Adds a full day of calories burned on top of Fit's own calculation. 3. Heart and step history don't show. Sticks at "refreshing", then fails. Worked first two days only.
Still works as intended but the app it self can use an UI upgrade. Has not received an update in almost a year while much has changed to Google Fit.
On my huawei watch there's no option to stop workout mode like on the app description.
Would like a feature to export heart rate history to csv file on phone. This would be very useful if your doctor wants a heart rate history.
Love the app! It's the only app that I can find with a dedicated HR workout mode. Question though, how do you stop the workout mode on an Android Wear device? (Huawei watch) That's the only issue I have is the fact that it will keep the HR monitor running long after I'm done with my workout. Tapping on the Android Wear app doesn't stop it, Tapping on the app "check HR" doesn't stop it. Please let me know, other than that great job!
Overall Great App. Heart rate tracking works on Huawei watch. Need to improve (must) - Once heart rate tracking is on we cannot turn it off. Even if I set the tracking to "never" green light will still be ' active ' on the watch. Good to have (optional): - By default app shows average heart rate per hour. It would be great to have 2nd screen like table with last XX heart rates. - Need zones for heart rate, so the watch will vibrate if we have to high heart beat on "workout mode". Once it done, 5 stars app !
I like it, but the step history page has a few issues. The older history chart's window doesn't accurately show what fays you are viewing. It is like half a frame off. Also if I try and swipe fast to go back to a date a while a go it switches pages. It would take way to long to swipe slow and get to that date. Would be nice to click the bottom, older history chart and have the top on automatically go to the date in the top chart.
I downloaded this app for 3 reasons. It's heart rate features which work great. It's calorie conversions which also works, but can lag a bit. And finally I wanted it to count the steps from my LG G watch R, and this is what I'm having issues with this application. It logs the steps from my phone (Note 4) that uses google fit as its step counter, but when I set my phone down any steps that are counted with my watch won't log into this app. Google fit will keep track of my watch, and Cinch won't.
Great app, works great so far. Is beautiful and smart. Only thing it needs is a widget, and maybe some customizability, like changing the background images like you can with S Health. Also the weight loss part with breaking tiles is poorly laid out. Should have a graph for tracking weight loss instead.
This app has all the information I wanted. But there is 2 issues.. 1. I cannot see the graphs for the calories history, it is always grayed out. 2. The steps are always more then what Google fit report. Everything else is working perfectly. Thank you for your work! It's a great app!
Hi, I'm a fan of your workout mode, can you please give more function to it? Such as target heart rate and maximum heart rate alert. Thankss
I like what the app does, but on my G Watch R, I'd love for the heart rate to be displayed prominently. Also so it can run in ambient "always on" mode.
I wanted this app mostly for injecting my heart rate history into Google Fit. It did that alright. At the same time it's a poorly laid out app that spams me with messages and only has a two week trial. Definitely not worth paying for.
This app is what I have been looking for. It actually makes the heart rate sensor on my LG G Watch R useful since it automatically checks my heart rate and logs it. YES! Now...the app itself can be better. It is a very nice start but I would like to be able to hide and/or rearrange the different pages. The app opens to 'Weight' but some of us are only interested in the 'Heart Rate' page. It would be great if I can either hide the 'Weight' page or at least choose which page the app opens to.
Nexus 5 and moto 360. Continuous heart rate monitoring is absolutely brilliant and the app is well designed. I personally don't use that motivation stuff and so wouldn't mind seeing an option to disable it. EDIT: I had some queries about some things and they have been answered very quickly and usefully. Thanks. PS. I also find the step counter on Cinch to be more accurate.
Every time i try to open it all i grt is it has stopped working and i just downloaded it
In workout mode, the heart rate value could be made more prominent and the extra text like instructions and title could be removed. The workout notification displays the app name PerfectCinch instead of Cinch whereas it should be displaying the last workout HR. Opening the note shows its checking the HR but it should actually just open back to the workout mode. The Hr graph should let you drill down to each min for more details instead just min, max and avg Hr for each hour.
The heart rate monitoring it's good but the pedometer needs work in regards to accuracy. It's nowhere near my phone's internal pedometer nor is it close to my watches pedometer. Off by about 4k steps!
My main gripe is with the design itself. Its half material, half holo. Consistent design is the key to a good UI. Work on that and you've got a hit.
No free and premium separation, it is a flat out demo.
I am liking the app so far and mostly use it for workout mode. Only issue I have is that if I forget to turn off workout mode it kills my battery. Can a notification be added letting me know it is still running.
