EDITED: gift that keeps on giving needs work!
Within 6-8 months of using the device/app a few times a week on average, it began to have issues connecting to the app. Customer service simply gave me a few tips to get it going, but it remains to be undependable where, one moment it works and the next, it can’t connect at all; or even further, it disconnects mid-session locking up mid-squeeze making it look as if my pelvic floor died mid Kegel. Long story short, extremely glitchy for such an expensive device.
I can only hope i got stuck with a defective one considering how much one has to fork out for this.
I need to recheck the paperwork and cross my fingers it came with a lifetime warrantee because I liked it when it worked and I most-definitely couldn’t afford anything else in that category at the moment.
First review:
I have been using Elvie regularly for about 3 months now and can’t express how happy I am with it! Elvie is great for visual feedback, both during exercise and for progress. It also helps in ensuring you’re doing the exercises correctly (focusing on correct muscles, breathing, etc.). If you're doing it wrong, it's pointless, so I'd say this is definitely worth getting if you're looking to build stronger PC muscles that lead to better orgasms, making him, her and/or yourself feel better during play and plenty other benefits.

Great tool but have had some connection issues.
I’ve had my Elvie for two years and first purchased it to simply see where my strength level was at the time.
As suspected, my strength level was low so I was able to quickly increase it with the tool & the fun interactive games it incorporates with pelvic floor training.
About a year ago, I started having a series of connection issues and stopped using it. I recently charged it, tried again, and the issues seem to have resolved themselves.

Life changing
Less leaks, better sex, best purchase I’ve made.
Awesome Trainer
Elvie is a fun and user friendly trainer. It has helped me strengthen my pelvic floor muscles and also flatten my abs. Love it!
Disconnects like crazy Frustrating
This gadget costs a lot of money to disconnect so often.
I don’t have to cross my legs to sneeze anymore
Only complaint is the reporting function. Should be an online tracker, and the results chart should always be in the same order. Data people are so picky!
Fun, easy and beautifully designed!!
Have used the Elvie app for several weeks and it has been a user-friendly dream! It’s intuitive, beautifully designed and easy to connect to the device. The workout sessions are short, personalized, and fun, and the progress graphics provide great motivation to keep improving. Love it!!!
Cool but gets boring fast
The idea is great but the workout didn’t hold my interest for long. It would be cool to call them games not workouts and have a wider assortment to choose from, arcade style.
Nice tool
Elvie is great, it’s super sensitive and does take some time getting used to. After 4 kids this is a great tool to visually see what I am doing. If I so much as move it will shoot around. After the workout I can actually feel my core strengthening. Only draw back is it’s a bit big to me and for someone who is not sexually active I am a little sore after using it, which is the only draw back. If they could make one that was just a bit smaller it would be great. Overall I think this is a great app and tool especially if you are sexually activate. If not and you may be a little sore after the workouts.

Fun way to strengthen pelvic floor & orgasms
I’ve known for a long time that kegels are important for female health: to keep from leaking (like when you sneeze or jump), strengthen orgasms, increase energy but until I got Elvie I could not commit to kegels. Partly because I know if you do them incorrectly you can actually cause damage to the muscles of the pelvic floor causing weaker PC muscles but also because I could not tell if I was making progress so I would get bored and stop. With Elvie you are literally playing a video game with your vagina. Each time you squeeze or relax in the right way you see a little ball on the screen move accordingly (think old school coin op space ship games but instead of using your fingers on keys or a joy stick you are breathing and squeezing and relaxing your vagina muscles. It’s actually so fun to see your progress and have it tracked with numbers. Elvie even keeps track of your progress so you keep beating your “scores” and improve. Now I can’t wait to do my kegels! I just hope they add more features like squeeze to shoot an alien and little sounds that reward your brain for doing it right!! Love this. Making health and pleasure fun. Thank you!
