Common questions
How does sharing work?
Open an exercise or a session and choose Share. The app builds a link on your phone and opens the share sheet, so you choose how to send it: SMS, e-mail or a messaging app. The link contains the exercise or session you chose, and for a session the name you entered as sender, nothing else. Your friend taps the link, sees the content, and decides whether to save it. Nothing is saved automatically.
My friend does not have the app. Can they open the link?
Not yet. The link opens in the app, so your friend needs BuddyWorkout installed first. Some Android messaging apps do not make the link tappable: use Copy link in the share sheet and paste it into the message.
The link is too long to send by SMS.
Long sessions make long links. The app warns you and trims comments first. If it is still too long, send it by e-mail or copy and paste it into a messaging app.
How do I change the language or the colours?
The app follows your phone: English or Norwegian text, and light or dark mode, depending on your phone's settings. Change them in your phone's system settings.
I deleted an exercise. Can I get it back?
Exercises you make are stored only on your phone, and there is no backup or server copy, so a deleted exercise cannot be restored by us. If you or a friend shared it as a link earlier, open that link again to save it. Reinstalling the app also brings back the sample exercises that come with it.
Do I need to create an account?
No. There are no accounts. Everything is stored on your phone.
How do I delete all my data?
Uninstall the app. Everything it stored goes with it. See the privacy policy for details.
