Kic: Health, Fitness & Recipes

I SO wanted to love this app. I got a free three month trial with my health insurance and was really excited to try the running program. I love Kic.Pod and the blog but the app is just not great for runners if you don’t have an Apple Watch. I use a Garmin and without Garmin/Strava/other smartwatch connectivity this was just a pain to log workouts, so most of the time I ended up not using it at all. The app ended up just being a recipe app for me, and one I used infrequently at best. Sorry team. 😢

The KIC app is the best fitness and wellness app I have EVER used (and I have tried a few over the years). I have also encouraged multiple friends to download it and they have also never looked back. The workouts are perfect if you like variety, ranging from pilates, to running and strength. The workouts vary in timing from 5min burners to even full marathon programs, all of which can be done individually or you can stack workouts depending on what you have time for that day. Their meditations are motivational, affirming and at times so calming they will put you to sleep in the best way possible! It provides the best recipes and there are always new recipes added for diversity. You do not count your calories or macros, but can feel assured that all meals are approved by professionals so you eat balanced meals that are enjoyable and not restrictive like many other apps out there. The app and the brand of KIC are all about encouraging you to have a positive relationship with yourself, your body and overall health. If you haven’t tried KIC yet, you are really missing out! It will change your life for the absolute better.

Coming from someone who worked for a competitor app who shall remain nameless, I did not hesitate to use Kic and pay for a yearly membership. The beginner programs are truly beginner friendly and you can feel and see the results. I haven’t experienced bugs, and I feel that everything essential is in there. No fuss. Absolutely love this app and program and love to follow the founders’ bubbly and approachable personalities.

A good fitness app, I especially like the planner and the incorporation of recipes. One review said it is a little difficult to navigate and I agree, I don’t know to explain it but it takes a while to find what I want from the Home Screen. Also, tried to use the app on holiday in Fiji where the wifi was patchy and had such a hard time doing workouts, it would be awesome if the workouts could be downloaded and done offline.

I tried so many apps for fitness but this one is the less engaging i found.

Nothing against the app itself, more about apple with regarding a refund if you are unhappy with the product. The app didn’t quite hit my expectations regarding set up and user functions. I felt it was a little hard to navigate (based off other apps I’ve used in the past) and didn’t like how you had to search for a warm up/cool down aspect rather it being built into each exercise session. When submitting a refund through apple, I was denied multiple times. Apparently satisfaction of a product is not part of their policy for a refund. $117 is a lot of money to spend on a product you arn’t happy with. After emails and calls to apple support nothing can be done. And yes there is a “trial” period but 7 days when you work full time/kids and don’t get time every day to trial the app isn’t exactly long enough time. Please be mindful before you buy

Be careful with this app and their debits. Have had a terrible experience

Hey there when i try to tap on the meals its doesn’t let me view the meals.

Everything is great but I would love to be able to separately control the trainers volume as it is often much louder than the music I play from Spotify. If I turn up the volume on my phone it turns up both my music and the trainer’s voice whereas I would like to hear my music more.

Amazing app that I can’t recommend enough. Everything is so easy to use, I can always find what I’m looking for. I especially love that you can favourite workouts and recipes and easily find them. The best bit is that you can listen to your music through other apps while doing a guided workout or run! Highly recommend
