Very poor port from iPad app
This is obviously not an app written for the Mac. It is an extremely lazy port from the iPad. It does not take advantage of a desktop computers features and advantages. Here is my take:
Pros:
Main window can be expanded to take partial advantage of screen real estate.
More than one (two) windows.
Cons:
- The layout does not take advantage of the larger screen size. Although there is a second window, it can not be resized - and it is small. During workouts the window is used to show sets and toggle with previous best. But since it cant be expanded, even just four sets requires a scroll bar.
- Drop down menus in the windows are miniscule, showing only three choices at a time. This makes it extremely difficult to choose another option. There is absolutely no reason for this to be this way.There is room, even in this small window, to show over a dozen choices.
- The app doesnt use the normal menus. There are only two options: the "iMuscle" (with the normal hide and quit options) menu and "Window" (which allows you to choose between the two windows.There are no choices to select the different features of the app.
- Importing workouts from the iPad is buggy. It took a couple of attempts to get the correct workout to import. The first time a bizarre combination of exercises was imported.
If you own the iPad version, unless you need a larger main window view, dont bother buying this version.
