Teemo: the fitness adventure game! app good for
But with my new iPhone 5S, I cant use my apps! Please, change the apps..
Its nice workouts app. But I am confused on when I start and stop. How long for a beginner in a day? A check point? I dont no.
Why a cant repeat a program?
Creat a fake Facebook Account-its easy. The idea behind is great and the app Looks great. It is definitley worth a try!
This app has great potential!!
Obviously there are some stability issues (which I havent had a problem with yet) and it looks like the Facebook thing is a problem for many, so if they can fix those two issues, this app should start getting some great reviews.
The exercises are just like what I do in bootcamp (minus the running and the weights) and Ive only done a few in teemo so far, so waiting to see if they include any floor exercises (eg. for abs). Bootcamp costs a lot of money!! If you do Teemo for 45 mins to an hour, you are sure to get in a good, very challenging workout, and how cool is it that you progress like a game!
The videos are great and the timing function clearly lets you know when to start and stop.
Some things Id like to see improved upon (after the major issues):
1. The ability to delete a challenge if you change your mind about which one to do.
2. The ability to change the difficulty level after you have begun a challenge (this one is pretty crucial I think).
Ill add more if I come across anything else, I just want to let people know that they should give it a chance before dismissing it based on the bad initial reviews, these things are fixable!
I read the reviews here and to date i havent experience crashing!
I love the sequence in doing the challenge: you pick a challenge, tells you what exercise to do, shows you the video how to do it, you start and it times you, then have you pause between sets!
I think concept-wise this is way better than Nike training, dont get me wrong i wont abandon my training apps. :)
I do like this. If this, however, has crash issues I wish theyd fix it because Im keeping this app! Good thing i got this when its free!
Teemo is a great way to get basic work-out routines delivered in an idiot proof format for those like me who have little knowledge about creating training routines. When I manage to get motivated, Having to figure out what to do can turn into an excuse not to work out. Teemo tells me exactly what to do and I do it.
Also, the videogame feel that teemo brings to work out also helps out with motivation for an old mouse pusher like myself.
To top it all, the fact that you can cooperate with your friends to achieve a goal is fun and another source of motivation (i.e. Dave has exercised today, I better do something too.) Granted that self motivation is always best, but whatever works, right?
However, I have had some trouble figuring out how the cooperate with friends part. Im still not sure I have it working properly. Something to work on Team Teemo!
Otherwise, this is a great app that I will keep using with my friends.
Some bad moments
One should be able to use Teemo without necessarily registering with Facebook. I dont use Facebook anymore, as in I deleted my account, and wanted to use this app but its impossible... I get that it is for "team" and "sharing" purpose, so why not make it possible with other social networks ? And without any also? Please make a change, the app looked really promising.
Thanks.
Facebook only -2 Stars
No offline usage -1 Star
Two stars left for the idea and design
Cool concept, but its too buggy and is impossible to play it. I can only get to the point where u select the challenge and then it says "saving challenge" and crashes EVERY TIME. Im on iphone4. Tried everything humanly possible to make this app work with no success.
Pretty dumb you have to log in with Facebook, not every aspect of my life needs to cycle through FB...
Only option is to log in using Facebook. Half the world, including myself, do not use it so why not offer a login alternative?
If one does not have or use facebook, how can they take advantage of this application??
