WOD Kaartspel

I’ve used this app for like 6 years on and off now. I redownloaded it again recently and there’s a new bug that caused me to write this review: Whenever I exit the app for maybe longer than a minute (whether it’s to run for a little bit, answer a phone call, etc), and then I return to the app, the deck that I was currently halfway through has disappeared and I’m back at the Home Screen of the app. All my progress is lost and it’s really hard to start a new deck because I don’t remember all the cards I had already completed. This is pretty frustrating when it happens twice during a workout. Otherwise, this app has been one of my favorite workouts for a long time, but this one bug might make me delete it for good : /

This workout app is great....if you want to do 100 reps of a workout in a row. This app does not feel randomized at all when working out. This is an example of a typical workout: The two jokers will be drawn very close to each other, usually within the first 10 cards. Then it’s heavy on one suit with one other suit sprinkled in (Spade, Spade, Spade, Diamond, Spade, Spade, Diamond, etc.). This continues until the last twenty cards which will be all of the other two suits (heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, clubs, clubs, clubs, clubs). Rinse and repeat for about 80% of the workouts on this app. Do yourself a favor and just buy an actual deck of cards.

I swear there has to be someone messing with me on the other side of this app because 5 workouts in a row they saved the last 7 cards for diamonds and the first 15 cards were almost all spades.

The updated version crashes, is clunky and a huge step down for the original. It’s garbage but the only garbage available like it

I have used this app on and off for a while. Lately, the app crashes in the middle of workouts for no reason without saving progress!!!! Today, it shut down on the second to last card?!?&&$!!!&@

Please fix it! It crashed after a few cards. (ios 14)

This was a great app until I updated to iOS 14. As I write this the app crashed twice before beginning my workout and once during my workout. Hopefully it’s updated again soon because it’s a 5 Star app when it works. I guess I’m improvising the rest of my workout this morning...

Simple and elegant. Type in the name of each exercise for each card suit, and start your work out. A simple tap deals the next card. You don’t have the option to omit jokers, so I just put “breathe” as the value for both of the jokers. Once I completed my workout, I was pleasantly surprised to find that I get a precise breakdown of the length of time it took me to do each exercise on each card. It also records my total time for the work out, and saves it in my history.

For the most part this app is great. Pros - allows you to save all of your own custom workouts - tells you the exercise at the top of each card - tracks how long each card takes Cons - you can’t pause the workout for a break - if you leave the app for any reason, your workout ends and you have to restart the entire deck - if you end early, you can’t save your results (I have a limited amount of time to workout so I will often just do as many cards as I can) Overall it gets the job done but not being able to pause or leave the app really puts a damper on using it.

Invariably the jokers come up in the first half of the deck
