Thank you for the feedback. Will implement a success notification in a bit.

Regarding the programs, there are 3 demo workouts to try out that I linked in the post and all over the landing page. I understand you want to check the exercise lists prior to paying so you can compare, but just reading them wouldn't provide much unless you have context. That's why they are not available. I actually previously implemented a trial period in a prior update but it didn't yield success also became easy to just keep churning so I removed it.

If you have an alternative to this, please let me know your suggestion/s.

I can't say what will convert better, but what I can say is that the value proposition seems to be centered around personalization, but a demo workout list doesn't showcase personalization in any way, so it doesn't show me what the value of the app is. Every workout app obviously has a list of exercises.

My dream would be an app where I can share information about myself and my goals, as well as what equipment I have access to, and then get back a workout plan that I can easily tweak by adding or removing exercises, and the app adjusting the plan so that it remains balanced and in support of my goals. For example, say the app suggests deadlifts as part of a plan in order to strengthen the glutes, but I don't feel comfortable doing deadlifts, I could remove it from the plan and the app would instead suggest hip thrusts or something. That kind of functionality, or something in the same vein of personalization, isn't really demonstrated with a static demo. An alternative could be to only let me add or remove a certain number of exercises before I have to pay, or to only pull exercises from a limited set, or gate the whole personalization behind a paywall but let me see that it exists before I pay. Right now the value proposition is really unspecific.

This is great feedback! You're 100% right that the value proposition is personalization and it's crucial to effectively communicate this to users in a tangible way.

I'm actually now going to implement a $1 1-day trial. Prior to discovering YC I was initially was going to have the webapp free, but as they often preach free products mute signs if you're actually hitting the PMF. The trial will act as a filter between those who are genuinely curious about the product, and those who are just browsing and probably wouldn't have ever paid.

Your dream app literally sounds like PARIAN after the next update. The app currently does most of what you've listed:

- personalized plan based on profile, custom goals and equipment - easily customizable workout plan that you can add/remove exercises from - comparable exercise suggestions (coming soon)

The idea I have for this comparable exercise suggestion is you will be able to do it in just a few seconds with a feature called "Swap" right in the workout page

Say you're in a gym and the bench press is taken, you will be able to tap on the Swap button and see a pop up where you can swap out either the equipment (the bench press) for something comparable like dumbbells + bench, or an entirely different exercise that still targets the chest like cable chest flyes

These exercises will also be ranked from most comparable to least, and you will have all the freedom to swap out to any you like.

Same for if you have sore glutes and don't want to do RDLs, just pull up the swap feature and swap the RDLs out for Hip Thrusts, Hip Extensions, etc.
