Back pain exercises at home 4+

Amazing!

This app is fantastic. The number of exercises is incredible. The feature that allows you to create your own workout is perfect. I am able to customize it and create workouts for different days. The lady that does the exercises performs each exercise clearly and very well. She is also dressed modestly. I know that won’t be important to some but it’s important to me. You can also customize the amount of time between exercises and the number of repetitions. It has been worth every penny and I use it daily. This is seriously a sleeper app. If more people knew about it, it would have a tremendous amount of five star ratings.

Great content, needs technical enhancement

I love the exercises on this app. Has been and will be very helpful for my back. The one thing I would like to see is better enhancement of the app itself. I have a couple of different exercise apps that I use regularly, and want to make this one of them. But I find it really helpful to have soft, gentle, verbal instructions with the exercises. Not constant chatter, but instructions and reminders of how to do the exercise and what is important to focus on. I spend a lot of time checking my phone and seeing what I’m supposed to be doing, and I’d rather concentrate on the activity. Also, some ambient music behind the voice would be good.
The other thing is that the app won’t make any noise unless you take your phone off silent. I have my phone on silent all the time and would prefer to have the app respond if I open it without having to change my phone settings. Also, could it be tied in to Apple health for the iOS version?
With a few enhancements, it would definitely become one of my favorites!

Developer Response ,

Thank you very much for so detailed feedback!
We keep working on the app. In the last release we added a voice guiding during workout. We are planning to add more features you mentioned in the future (voice instructions, music).
Hope you continue using the app. Thank you again and have a nice day!

Almost perfect

I love the ease of use, the ability to individualize the exercise program, the clear instructions and visuals. I love that it starts on a level that is easy to achieve, and it allows you to skip exercises that your doctor has told you that you should not do (prone head lifts and leg lifts, for example). I did not see a way to add speed or repetitions as you advance with the exercises, and it would be nice if the count-down tone could be modified and individualized. Ideally, the visuals of the person doing the exercise would be in sync with the count. Overall, a great, free app! Highly recommend for those who need to do some basic exercises that you might do in physical therapy. Done daily, these really keep your whole back more flexible with less pain and builds core muscles slowly and pain free.
