### 3/5 — Terrible App Design

*2026-08-19*

*The app crashes every time we try to create our own exercises. 
*Unable to modify pods how we would prefer them. (Things like changing the name of the pod. )
*Can’t take off a default player. (We use these for multiple patients and if we forget to click the player we don’t get accurate information for that patient. )

Other than the App not being very seamless the product itself is great!

### 2/5 — Pas de traduction fr

*2026-07-15*

Un peu déçu

### 3/5 — Choix de la langues !!

*2026-04-03*

Excellent application en revanche il serai super de pouvoir choisir la langue notamment le français !

### 3/5 — Cool idea if you’re willing to pay

*2026-02-23*

It seems like the functionality drops through the floor if you aren’t willing to pay for pro features. You can’t really customize anything without it. For as much as the pods are originally, it’s disappointing that so little function comes with ownership vs. subscription. Exercises are hard to find from the community library, but if you have a pro account, I’m sure it’s no big deal to get what you need from them.

### 4/5 — Should not need a subscription

*2026-02-10*

I love the product and the app works great but I don’t like the fact you have to pay for a pricey product and then pay for a monthly subscription. For the cost of Blazepods all drills should be included.

### 5/5 — Excelente!

*2026-02-08*

Um dos melhores aparelhos para trabalhar tempo de reação, explosão e velocidade. Comparado aos concorrentes, ele não ganha na questão custo-benefício para os usuários do Brasil. Para importar é caro, só tem um representante que vende e a sua anuidade é um pouco alta. Mas o APP e do HUB dentro dele são os diferenciais!!
Quando vocês vão começar a vender diretamente para o Brasil sem um intermediário?

### 2/5 — Not great

*2026-01-05*

Ok sure, the pods work well and I can maybe see the cost to produce them. However, paying $100 a year subscription just to create my own workouts is a scam. Oh cool, you get “random” for free…. But that’s it. The cost of the actual BlazePods should have been enough to gain access to the app and all of its features. At least offer the ability to create 3 workouts before requesting more money.

### 2/5 — Poor product quality

*2025-12-24*

The concept is interesting. The price was affordable. But the quality of the pods is poor. I lost 3 pods because of the connectors.

### 2/5 — 500 euro abych mohl použít jeden režim?

*2025-12-22, version 4.7.3*

Sorry jako ale za ty peníze bych čekal víc než jeden režim využívání. Bez subscription za skoro 3k je to k ničemu.

### 5/5 — Muy buena aplicación

*2025-12-04, version 4.7.3*

Deberían colocarle más idiomas  como español

### 3/5 — Leider nicht in deutsch

*2025-09-21*

Schade das es die App nicht in deutsch gibt

### 1/5 — Achtung: Einfachste Funktionen hinter €100 Jahresabo gesperrt

*2026-08-20*

Absolutes Unding: Haben die Pods als Geschenk für unsere Tochter gekauft. Funktionieren grundsätzlich gut. App ist aber super unübersichtlich und es dauert anfangs lange die gewünschten Spielmodi zu finden. Das €100 Abo pro Jahr ist eine einzige Frechheit. Super simple Funktionen sind nicht ohne Abo verfügbar. Wir sind kein Bundesliga Club oder professioneller Trainer - möchten die nur als Familie nutzen. Dafür sind €100 pro Jahr ne Frechheit.

### 1/5 — Scammy company without values

*2026-07-01*

No care about value for money but instead money for nothing.

### 1/5 — Had me in the first half- Shark Pricing

*2026-07-01*

If your goal was to charge someone money for not much in return. This product accomplishes that target. Avoid.

### 1/5 — Tyo hey

*2026-03-08, version 5.1.0*

I it is a horrible app

### 1/5 — DONT BUY

*2026-02-12*

The hardware alone is expensive enough. You’d think you will be able to use all pod features but NO. To use all pod features you need to get their subscription. What a scam.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2026-02-03*

The pods are quite expensive, and then they all but force you to buy the membership to keep using them. You cannot save any of your activities, and the options are quite limited if you don't buy the membership. The return window is very short too. Buyer beware.

### 1/5 — Scammed!

*2025-11-17*

Furious. Bought pods. Bought mounts for pods. Expensive. But it’s fine. One of purchase. They’re good pieces of kit. Robust. Will last a long time.

Having bought the hardware and the software being free it seemed worth while… until they decided the software was no longer free and they want £100 a year for a service that was originally included. I can no longer set my £450 pods up to light up and respond to my custom practice. I can only use a bundle of presets that BlazePod graciously enables me to use.

Disgraceful business practice and couldn’t recommend any less. If I could give 0 stars I would. Worst £400 you could spend. Avoid avoid avoid.

### 1/5 — App en inglés

*2025-09-24, version 4.6.9*

Por el precio de los dispositivos deberían tener la opción de cambiar idioma en la App (Castellano, francés…)

### 1/5 — Un business model criminel

*2025-05-25*

C’est une honte absolue. Après avoir dépensé plus de 500€ pour 6 leds et 6 bases, on découvre alors que pour pouvoir avoir accès aux fonctions basiques comme pouvoir créer vos drills ou les sauvegarder il faut payer l’abonnement pro à 99€ par an !! Sans ça vous êtes limités en terme de création à un seul des 5 modes, et votre paramétrage est effacé entre chaque session.
Je ne pensais pas voir un jour un business model aussi honteux, tandis que rien sur leur site ne vous prépare à celà, c’est la douche froide une fois que l’on connecte les pods !!

### 1/5 — Subscription $$$$$

*2025-05-07*

The subscription is too expensive, especially after paying a premium for the hardware

*2026-03-02, version 5.0.0*

Love the blazepods. They can be used for many demographics and abilities.

### 5/5 — Great for working out

*2026-02-28*

Lots of different games, it helps you get better and you can have games with different numbers of pods or players. It tracks your progress which is nice and it is very fun, if you don’t like to work out but you want to get stronger use this.

### 5/5 — Great app great product

*2026-02-27*

My sport is NRA precision shooting, which is one handed pistol firing at articulating targets that are 25 yards away and static shooting at targets 50 yards away… requires tremendous. Eye hand coordination . I use this product daily as a continuous improvement tool to increase my shooting score

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2026-02-24*

We use these at our inpatient rehab unit and the patients (and therapist) love them. It helps with reaction time post op, dynamic balance and cognitive function. Our staff loves them!

### 5/5 — Coach Magz

*2026-02-16, version 5.0.0*

Awesome product

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-02-11, version 5.0.0*

Makes exercise fun again

### 5/5 — Amazing exerscise

*2026-02-11*

I think this really helped me get in shape and it was fun and cool to break a sweat with this. I think everyone should use this

### 5/5 — Blaze pod
