    Wow, sad to hear this. I really like the recent updates but may have to start looking elsewhere. Seriously, i would pay for elite if you had this service. Your missing a revenue stream. Why i can't imagine.

      Can you re share the jar file?

      Which would allow you to follow this: [url]http://www.jefit.com/forum/showthread.php?33349-How-to-export-data-from-jefit-bak-file-to-excel(-csv)&p=65923&posted=1#post65923[/url]

      Jar file is here: [url]http://www62.zippyshare.com/v/Jte6RPiF/file.html[/url]

      To use it just run "java -jar JefitDecryptor.jar /path/to/jefit.bak"

        Yes, can you re-share that jar file? They have recently started encrypting the BAK files again

          1) Asking that they implement an export feature is totally reasonable and it should be implemented.

          2) It is not unreasonable at all that the export functionality is limited to Elite subscription when implemented

          3) People who have problems with point 2) for some reason feels that it's unreasonable that different steps in functionality would cost less or more, this is how the world works.

          4) People who still have problems with point 3) might argue that they already paid a fair amount for the Pro app. Again, it's about what customers want and are willing to pay. Jefit could reason like they need/want more money than they get from the Pro app and are indeed trying to push more people into Elite. That is their choice. It's not evil, it's economics. Time will tell if it would be a wise strategy to limit more functionality to Elite, or ADD more functionality to Pro. Sometimes it can generate more money to add to the cheaper paying option and get more people willing to pay, than fewer people willing to pay more. It's complex :-). You can be pissed all you want, but it's unfair to judge a company for trying to make money imo.

          5) IF it would be the real case that Jefit chose to encrypt the backup files to prevent the export of data, they should admit this openly. Transparency and honesty builds loyalty, the opposite would make you lose customers.

          Here's my other reply on the subject: [URL="https://www.jefit.com/forum/showthread.php?50777-Access-MY-Workout-Logs&p=79031&viewfull=1#post79031"]https://www.jefit.com/forum/showthread.php?50777-Access-MY-Workout-Logs&p=79031&viewfull=1#post79031[/URL]

            I walked away from using Jefit two years ago because I didn't want to keep putting my data into a locked-up system. Data export and/or integration with other apps has been "promised" for a long time and never materialized. I'd still like to download *my* data that JeFit is holding onto.

            The new European General Data Protection Regulation 2016 gives citizens a right to data portability. If JeFit want to do business in Europe, they Must make this option available. [The law makes it a requirement to provide machine-readable data in a suitable format: you can't just give a binary or text dump, either..]

                Cant believe this is still not a feature. Your app is great which is why its used. But if we cant access our data its not worth the convinience of the app's ability to log workout data....
