Plunge - Official App 4+

App is great, useful and nice features. But…. When you’re using the timer ( cold or sauna) and you leave the app - say you want to browse for music while in the sauna or watch a podcast - the timer doesn’t keep going in the background. It freezes! That’s terrible, seems easy to fix, and who just wants to keep it on the timer screen the whole time. Cold plunge I can see, it’s a short time frame, but the sauna 🤔. Get this fixed and it’s an easy 5 stars, but the timer is one of the draws to this app!

Update: timer works flawlessly when you move out of the plunge app into other apps! Thanks for the update team! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hey CrossFit Viera…

We heard you loud and clear! Today we’ve released a completely rebuilt timer to resolve as many issues as possible!

Please keep the feedback coming as this is just the beginning 😊❄️

Update: Thanks a ton for the updated review!! 🙏

Love my plunge all in but the app is just so limited. Very little data and reports; it offers this high level view of the week, month but I can’t even find a list of my plunges with respective detail. It does not sync or export to Apple health and I can’t export a list of plunges either. The reason. I’d like this level of detail is I’m methodical on how much and what temp. I’m setting goals and tracking/correlating to heart rate. Would be really cool if you can set up hours and the temp you want the plunge to be at. For example 50 degrees throughout the night and then 40 degrees at a certain time you plunge at so the system doesn’t have to keep working to keep it at 40. There are just so many features they could have but at least the plunge itself has been amazing. Keep improving the app please!!!

5/8 lost 2 days of plunge entries and no way to manually create them except to run the timer but it won’t be on the same day. 🥲

Hey 1bigwang1…

We just released version 2.2 today in an effort to resolve most of these issues. If you’re still experiencing problems please contact us and we’ll work with you directly to resolve. We don’t want those issues to exist either!

Logging is primary benefit. Needs work: - timers do not remain accurate if app is in background or if device goes into Lock Screen. - iPad needs it’s own version to take advantage of real estate. - should add variety of completion sounds… that persist until Save & Close button selected. When I’m in my sauna, I like to read various things on my iPhone. This completely wrecks the timing feature. Ditto if I turn my screen off. Thus, only using now for logging purposes. iPad’s built-in timers are preferred otherwise.

UPDATE:
Currently just using on iPad. New versions look nice… but I cannot find any Timer Complete Sounds. Am I missing something? Also, I assumed that settings and data would be synched between devices, yet I do not see any way to log in on my iPhone. Thanks!
