First of all, congrats on making the apple watch app. I’ve been a FL user for more than 7 years already and didn’t have an Apple watch when there was a previous version. This new one is very well awaited. I want to provide feedback after one week of using it. I was not able to find where to submit within the app.
- FL app version 24.21.2.24021002
- iPhone 15 plus on iOS 17.5.1
- Apple watch 8 on watch OS 10.5
Overall comments:
- nice look and feel
- good first approach at a watch app
- feels like an overpriced remote control as it does nothing more than to click next.
- always needs to be connected to app running in foreground. Not good.
- sometimes it is buggy and does not sync properly
Suggested improvements
-
allow countdown timers in rest periods to run independently if app is in foreground on the phone or not. Sometimes I pickup the phone in lenghty rests (120sec or more when between weight sets). This will allow the user to know when it’s time to go make the next set.
-
Incorporate heart rate measurements just like Apple fitness does. It is interesting to keep track on one’s hear rate and its zones. I love FL and am a lifetime user, but I find Apple fitness app more useful in my wrist.
Happy to provide additional information and feedback or even becoming a beta tester.
