FitOn Workouts & Fitness Plans

4.9

FitOn Workouts & Fitness Plans is a mobile app making fitness accessible to everyone. The app provides a broad selection of free workouts from celebrities and world-class instructors. It has already inspired over 10 million people to stay active, reduce stress, and improve their sleep with short workouts that users can do from anywhere in the world – no expensive gym equipment is needed.

FitOn Workouts cover cardio, strength-building exercises, high-intensity interval training, yoga, pilates, zero-equipment workouts, as well as toning and stretching classes. The app also offers several handy features, such as joining the leaderboard to compete with others, syncing the app with Apple Health to measure real-time heart rate, tracking progress, and messaging with workout buddies. The PRO version also provides exclusive recipes, live workouts with friends, music suggestions, and unlimited offline downloads.

Our QAwerk team decided to expand our portfolio of the fitness apps we tested for free and check the FitOn app for bugs. Here is what we discovered after a round of manual testing.

FitOn Workouts & Fitness Plans app is a great option for those who mainly workout at home or often travel, as it provides free exercise videos and personalized workout plans that help them lose weight and get fit. I found a few problems with the user profile management and recommended workouts. Also, some visual, however, not critical defects were spotted - like an incorrectly displayed board title. Mentioned bugs can be annoying, so they call for professional intervention. To ensure the app is working correctly, I recommend including exploratory, functional, and regression tests in your test coverage strategy.
