Probs seeing pool reservations past Sat

Hey guys! On the app, I found the pool reservation section, but it’s showing only days in this week, ending Sat. It’s Friday so that’s 2 days. Is there a way to see a little further into the future? Otherwise, I vastly prefer the website.

Terrible

I mean really, REALLY bad...

So difficult to find pool reservation area

I don’t know why but at times I can’t find the pool reservation area. I click on every possible menu choice and no luck. Reinstall and login and just maybe I can navigate to it. Using the desktop to get into the YMCA always works if I remember the secret sequence.
The only practical reason to use the app would be to make reservations (pool, spinning, yoga etc). Why not a dedicated button to go directly to that area???

Exhausting ☹️

It’s exhausting to attempt to navigate this site.

The worst app ever!

Login is impossible, the cart doesn’t appear. Lap swim sign-up works maybe 25% of the time if you’re lucky. Unfortunately this app is the only way to sign up for lap swim because the website is worse than the app.

App & Web Interface Need Work

App slow to login and logout which is the same as the website. Also, doesn’t take advantage of iPhone face recognition.

Cannot login into both the App and website simultaneously. Even after logging out of App, website indicates that it seems that I am already logged into YMCA else where. But, I am not.

Finally, select schedules, pool and facilities, the response is always none available.

Very rudimentary development state that appears to be a poor wrapper for the website.

Incomplete information

App does not have the my y dashboard. Classes and registrations are not available as a quick view. I need to log in to my internet browser in order to view this which is annoying.

Schedule Update Please

Schedule related. I like that you can see the full schedule of the whole week of any San Diego Y.
My suggestion, though, would be to make a section “title” for the hour and include the individual classes on a separate line for each class with the exact time shown on the left, instead of having a long list with the hour shown on the left and the exact time in the body of each class.
Or even have the hour as an expandable section with each class listed individually by time below.
Another suggestion would be to automatically jump to the current day/hour.

It gets kind of confusing when you’re in a rush having to scroll through all the other classes, the hour is highlighted not the actual time and sometimes the app opens on the wrong day.

On a different schedule-related note: it would be amazing if you could sign up for the classes through the Y app, similar to MindBody or ClassPass. And then your scheduled classes would show on the home page and you could add to your choice of native calendar apps.

Other than that, it’s great. Love that I can save my member pass to my Apple Wallet. That was a genius idea! Keep up the great work. Thanks!

Aackk- so frustrating!

This used to be my go-to app for group exercise classes at several Y locations, but this latest issue results in zero results. Regardless of the location, day, type - all results get a ‘no classes meet that criteria’ message. Please fix this. (The main SD Y page is even worse for searching program info, leaving members with few search options.) Deep breath.
