Every god damn fitness app for VR... Why the hell do I need to pay a subscription fee just to keep better track of how much I swung my controllers or head around or set higher goals than the built-in system?
I've never thought about VR for fitness. I have a VR that I never use. Any suggestions on an app that isn't expensive? I'm fat and trying to be not fat. Lol
The Quest has its own built in app called "Move" that works okay. It will track how much you've moved in VR and gives you caloric goals; but the highest goal you can set is 120 Calories for 30 minutes 3 days a week. All the other programs I have seen are subscription based and come with live trainers and customer support, which is what they are really trying to sell, over any kind of useful tool which could be done without a subscription but still require the subscription to use.
At least on the actual stores. I am finding more things on GitHub to do what I actually want to do with the headset than on any official channels, but I haven't gone out of my way specifically for fitness stuff.
