8fit Workouts & Meal Planner 4+

This app is perfect for anybody trying to reach their ideal healthy body goals. It’s completely personalised so that the app knows where you are currently and where you would like to be, how much commitment you’re willing to put towards it, the work out intensity, everything. The recipes have never disappointed anybody I’ve cooked for! Mind you I’m not too good at cooking neither hahahaha so the recipes are pretty easy also. And on top of all the meal and workout plans, there are articles you can read so that you can learn how to do things on your own without the app telling you what to do. For example how to read labels when you’re buying food, how to detox without eating like a rabbit, how to gain weight healthily, etc. This app has everything! And the last thing to top it all off is you can log it all, keep photos of your meals in the app and the app keeps tabs on your progression. This app is so good!! If you lack in motivation, give this app a go. Just add it into your life style and I promise you will not be disappointed!!

So disappointed. I downloaded the 8fit app to trial after a friend recommended it, and assumed that before the end of the trial period, I would be notified and asked whether I wanted to purchase a subscription or at least be informed that the trial was coming to an end and that I would be charged if I didn’t unsubscribe by a certain date (as occurred when I trialed the Sweat app). Yesterday, I checked 14 days after I downloaded 8fit to trial after thinking it was strange that I hadn’t received a notification or email informing me the trial period was ending, and by then it was too late - I’d been automatically subscribed to a yearly subscription for AU $80, despite not having consented to this. Now I’m stuck with an app that I don’t want, am not going to use, and is nowhere near as good as the Sweat app. I’m not going to even bother contacting Apple or the 8fit developers to request a refund, but think others should be aware of the unscrupulous way the 8fit app developers work. Good apps don’t need to deduct yearly membership fees without permission, people will happily sign up if their app is worth the money. Apps such as 8fit clearly lack the confidence that people would want to subscribe after a trial period and take your money without asking. Poor form 8fit.

I decided to ditch my gym membership and try out exercising at home. Working full time and very long hours I would get to the gym on average twice per week, do a long workout, feel exhausted ... and didn’t really see big changes in my physique.
Once I did some research on home workouts I decided to give this app a try. Today I achieved my 100th workout. I am absolutely f..... (pardon me) really in love with this app. I exercised during my two month travel trip in my hotel rooms, I used it to exercise in parks and now during covid 19 lockdown in my living room. This app is just what everyone needs. Short, daily workouts! I don’t feel exhausted after the workout but rather refreshed and ready for my day. I also see the difference on my body. My legs and arms are definitely more firmer. I don’t use the eating plan but have noticed that recipes are not too bad. I highly recommend this app. So much so that I want to work for these guys! Totally worth the money! Try it out!
