Comments on Starting Strength (Legacy) for Android
★★★★☆Jessie Gauntt· Jul 20, 2024
Really good adaptation of the Starting Strength program. Could use more flexibility, especially for female trainees and modifications Iike assisted pull-ups, but overall great.
★★★★☆Kyle Bansberg· Jan 19, 2024
I change the defaults in the settings dor plates, progression weight, and it keeps going back to the app default. Been doing it for almost a month now.
★★☆☆☆Herbert Lusuegro· Feb 9, 2024
Make the app local first, it is too sluggish. I need to quit the app multiple times every time I need to set something in the settings. If the phone is in an area with low internet signal, the settings won't be loaded based on the left saved settings.
★☆☆☆☆Jeff S.· Jul 24, 2025
Enjoy the starting strength program, but this app is barely in life support. I can "log" a workout, but it doesn't save anywhere. I can't see the progress being made. Doesn't swap to the next workout properly. Keep losing settings for units and the plates I have available. $15 lost, time to find a better app.
★☆☆☆☆Brian Robertson· Mar 13, 2024
Incredibly buggy and poorly coded. The functionality seems good but the app constantly hangs up, won't save the workout when I submit, launches into the wrong workout, and a number of other issues. Not worth the hassle. Much better free options out there.
