Pros and cons of HeavyBag Workout Box 4 Fitness app for iPhone and iPad

HeavyBag Workout Box 4 Fitness app good for

Great for beginners just looking for a good workout. You can use the app over music and still hear the sequence called out. You can make it as easy or as hard as you want depending on the intensity you put into the workout. Wonderful app!
Great app! Closest thing to a personal trainer. Would like to see more routines added

Some bad moments

Better to just download a round timer app and use YouTube to learn fundamentals. Wraps and different punches.
This is a great app for heavy bag workouts. It is very easy to follow and has great tutorials if you need them. Best part is you can use it at home or the gym. I highly recommend this app
Well aside from short videos on hand wrapping and punching technique this app is not worth 2.99...someones boxing coach will teach this as you train The headless hand wrapper is "interesting" . $.99 would be an appropriate price
I really loved this app when I first got it. In fact, I got really excited when I finally completed the novice workout. Now the training levels are gone, and you only get 5 rounds? I realize Im only one person, but Im highly disappointed with the changes. Please go back to how you had it.
The app might have been useful...but the audio made it too horrid to use. The functionality of the app is limited and underwhelming. I would not recommend this purchase...especially for the price.
Advertised for single round workouts and its there. Advertised for 10 round workouts over 4 different levels and that is NOT there. If you choose 5 rounds every round is random after the first one and that just doesnt make sense. Paid for this and I expect it to be as advertised. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I will amend my rating when its fixed.
