Hey! I'm super happy with this app so far. I like the pre-loaded routines like wake-up, full body, posture reset, and sleep and have been using them. I have chronic low back pain and tight hamstrings, and this app has helped with both. I am actually able to touch my toes for the first time in forever. The stats are very useful, and I like being able to set my own reminders. Well done on this one. Flexibility is an extremely important part of overall fitness that I've been ignoring for too long.

Used it for about two weeks, my biggest issue is that it doesn't really adjust itself much for weight. I'm heavier and selected that stretches putting strain on my knees were bad and... it did nothing beyond add a tiny blurb at the bottom of the explanation to remind me I indicated my knees were an area of concern. Thanks, I know, that's why I picked that option, maybe stop recommending poses which put strain on my knees. Also, absolutely spams you with ads for premium.

The app is refreshingly simple, I hope it will stay this way. It allows me to pick an area I want to work with and offers routines with different lengths. A gong sound would be nice at the end of the exercise. Until there is no Google login, or at least form complication does not work (e.g., saving passwords), I'm not willing to register.
