Best App Ever!
03/13/2021

Better together is exactly what the name implies... ever goal is more attainable if working together! My sister and I needed to lose weight. After many dieting attempts and then many failures I decided we needed to make this a competition. I searched for an app to help make this a competition and Better Together was my choice. Wow, I’m so glad I found this because my competitive sister and I are finally on the right track to becoming healthier. You could almost say this app may help save my sister’s life as she has high cholesterol and high blood pressure. I like the goals and how we are held accountable for drinking water, steps we take, and flights climbed. I whole heartedly recommend this app and am so grateful it is available! Thank you!

Pretty cool overall but major flaws that make use annoying

I love the overall concept of the app. It’s working pretty well for my family and me in terms of losing weight together. The biggest and most annoying part of the app is you have to manually make sure your daily goals (steps/stairs/water) are uploaded. I have to go to fitbit and better together at the end of the day to make sure they’re in. We’re 7 weeks in and I’ve gotten in a pretty good habit of doing this but it just seems like a huge flaw that should be fixed. Or, at least you should be able to correct it the next day when you’ve synced your fitness tracker app and opened better together. While those daily goals aren’t the main use of the app for me it seriously makes me so annoyed whenever I check the chat the next day and it says I didn’t get my goals because this seems like such an easy fix. I also think this being fixed supports the overall goal of the app supporting exercise and losing together, why have those functions when members who do get the goals don’t get credit for them in the group?

Good app, quirky but useable interface, great support
09/06/2021

Overall the app works well and certainly encourages regular exercise and a good diet. The interface is ok, sometimes a bit quirky in the way it communicates with the phone or Fitbit and finding things is not always intuitive or easy to find until you learn where they are. Sometimes it has had connectivity problems but it never lasts long and hasn’t happened in several weeks. The developers work hard to keep the app working well and one always appreciates their quick responses to problems. The adds are too intrusive and just beg to be accidentally touched. I don’t mind adds in a free app but these just don’t feel right. I would love an option to pay a few dollars to eliminate them. The app is definitely helping us reach our weight goals so I will definitely gift the developers at some point for their work in providing the app. The simple app has a little learning curve but once that is done it works very well.

I am updating my earlier review below based on my exchange with the solo developer of the app. They responded personally to explain what might have happened and to offer solutions. Apparently I was not supposed to see the ads/product placements with my PRO subscription, and there should have been a trial option for the PRO subscription.I was impressed at the promptness, courtesy, and sincerity in their customer service. Hope this app can do well so if it works for your needs please support smaller developers!********My initial review:I couldn’t use this app without first paying the $40 annual fee, and then all the so called “tips” are just ad after ad for different wellness products and services. I was made to believe I could input and share my food journal with my friends, but all you share is weekly weight (which we were already doing by snapping pics of the scale and sharing in a group thread), steps taken, and water intake. My group tried this for 3 weeks and then decided not to use it because it was no different then our group chat. The interface is very basic for what you pay (eg, the annual fee for MyFitnessPal or the Fitbit app is the same but you can do so much more), PLUS there are free fitness videos. I wish I could get a refund, I truly feel scammed. I don’t understand the good reviews at all. Highly do not recommend.
