★★★★★ "Great cause, app could be better. Limiting the number of push ups that can be recorded per day doesn't make it competitive. It also needs a chat function for banter with your team mates. I think a lot of people will lose interest." - Jordan K.

You can only enter maximum the amount of push ups for the day that they say. you should be able to enter as many as you did that day so people see how many you actually did. keep the goal for people who need guidance but it makes me want to quit having to lie about how many I did each day since I did 120 day one and will continue to break it up different than their plan. The forced programmed reps and the app design will make it so you this challenge will never really catch on.
Banking system terrible. signed up to push ups for mental health in February. doing 100 a day but cant bank that as you can only go up to a certain amount then a couple days you are told to do 140. Should be able to bank as much as you want whilst doing the challenge as everyone is different
I just want to bank my progress. But each time when opening app, it shows random news first. Then sometimes I need to agree with TOS even though I've already agreed to it. Like, just make my first screen the Banking screen. Why does it need to bother with all these extra buttons and redirects? If I'm interested, I will check out the news myself. Stop shoving it to my face as soon as I open the app.
Great cause, app could be better. Limiting the number of push ups that can be recorded per day doesn't make it competitive. It also needs a chat function for banter with your team mates. I think a lot of people will lose interest.
doesn't recorded banked push ups
It's primary use is to track daily usage, and it fails in that. The banking works on percentage of the daily target, not an actual number. And the daily target is what the app sets, not what a person wants to do. So basically it's useless for me. Most of the other stuff in the app is 'interesting' but wasted in an app. Editing the Thanks message for donations is difficult as it deletes the existing text if you try to add more to the end. Needs A LOT of usability work.
I love the challenge and the initiative behind it, but the app is pathetically slow to open..
says it is newly updated today so i hoped it'd be working, but right now it just says how well last year went, nothing about this year.
keeps crashing and can't reset password
when I download it just stays on the loading page with the little tick doing pushups.
doesn't let me sign into my account that I just made
Doesn't work
They need a country to participate on site you only have to option Canada and Australia that aren't not my own country
Push up bank daily limit is unnecessarily restrictive
can't bank more than daily limit. Uninatalled, let me know when you get that fixed.
The circular interface is truly awful. I hate using the app.
Forces you to stick to their pushup plan regardless of your fitness level or availability each day. What's the point of having an app if you have to keep track of stuff on paper.
Was a Great app Would be better if we could use it All year round... Not just during the challenge Now can't see team and daily chat doesn't match the pushups Please fix it
Cool App, however it wouldn't let me do more than the daily limit. I told everyone I'd do 3000, but the App has me severely limited as to my daily total.
The app forces you to follow their plan. You can't just do push ups at your own pace/fitness level. It will only allow you to track the number of pushups they decide for each given day. Some days force over 150 pushups. My plan was to evenly distribute the pushups to an average of 80 per day. This app doesn't allow that. You'd need a 2nd app or a piece of paper to keep track of your own progress. Very cumbersome and short sighted. Poor design.
The worst app. Considering this is for mental health awareness, you're doing a diservice to the support community. May is mental health month in Canada, I can't even sign up at this point as the app is unclear. Unfortunately, I'm out.
Can't do anything on app :/
What even is this, in the first screen it's telling to register for some campaign or something taking to the website Not good
overall okay but would be better to add more no limits
Didn't realize there were preset daily goals. Exceeded the goals on the first few days and the app won't let me log my actual count, at least that I could easily find.
Why can't you bank more than the daily target?! once you've hit the daily target you can't bank more than that if you're feeling energized and want to build up a buffer for off days... this seems like a really easy obvious feature.
Hello, so far it has been a mission for me to understand where to go after signing up and thats not all of my problems it said start the donate process of with you do the first donation for you and it will show,will it has not shown up on my profile,Me honestly I should have stayed away because its causing me more stress which I don't need at the moment,but yes I think that its a great app and it is for a good thing,because we all have to look after our mental wellbeing,
What were you thinking with the weird dial to enter numbers? It's awful! Literally the main thing the app should do and it's so bad.
It made me push for gay people
It works well and has great information. However, it has daily goals it won't let me exceed, so I am just going to track elsewhere. It was great to have information, but being limited to 49 on a day is stupid.
It won't let me bank more than 49 push ups but I did more than 49 pushups.
Slow to update details on app.
