Features Users Want Most in Mma Assistant Apps

"Kayyo was a 4-5 star training app because you were allowed to choose what you'd work on. Back then you were able to choose between a 5 round muay thai workout and a 2 round boxing workout. Now you have no such luck."

"This app was the best to be honest , but they ruined it with the update , the old one was much better you could have selected everything"

"you cant delete your video or make it private for people not to see and plus you can't delete your account s"

"Pretty decent overall, but doesn't let you private account you click it click away go back it's back, you can't delete vids, or even delete your account. I don't like it"

"This app is good but with a problem, it kicks you out sometimes, doesn't save anything, and just is frustrating"

"When I can actually finish something it never gives me the score for it or it just kicks me out before the round ends"

"I did the challenge and it didn't upload my video or score, not sure if it's laggy but the concept is awesome; there should be other challenges instead of speed and stuff"

"Needs rankings for weight classes"

Build a stable, offline-first workout tracker with zero AI dependencies

35% of complaints are crashes and 19% are broken AI tracking. Users just want reliable punch counting and workout logging that works consistently without internet or complex ML models.

Offer full workout customization from day one—no forced tutorials or level gates

14% of complaints specifically mention loss of customization. Users want to select their discipline (boxing/Muay Thai/wrestling), round count, and duration immediately without arbitrary restrictions.

Include comprehensive privacy controls: private profiles, video deletion, account deletion

Multiple users cite inability to delete content or accounts as dealbreakers. GDPR compliance and user data control should be table stakes, not afterthoughts.

Provide free tier with core training features, premium for video analysis

Users resist paywalls blocking basic exploration. A generous free tier (workout tracking, basic drills) with paid AI coaching creates trust and allows users to validate app stability before committing.

Design for iPad/tablet optimization and cross-device consistency

MMA News explicitly broken on iPad. Home workout apps benefit from larger screens for form checking—targeting tablets differentiates from mobile-only competitors.
