I’m so glad my insurance company told me about this to help me. ### 5/5 — Life Changing *2026-07-18, version 1.15.8* The BOLD program has been an incredible, successful experience for my balance, strength, weight and blood pressure. A life changer, for sure! ### 5/5 — Doable and helpful! *2026-07-10, version 1.15.8* I look forward to these bold exercises because they are very doable and very helpful and challenging, and I never know what to expect. Bravo! ### 5/5 — Lots of options *2026-07-07, version 1.15.8* I like the variety of length of class and types of workouts. ### 5/5 — Great Fun! *2026-07-01, version 1.15.7* I’m moving with more confidence already! ### 5/5 — Jack *2026-06-29, version 1.15.7* Excellent ### 5/5 — Grateful *2026-06-19, version 1.15.7* I'm grateful for these workouts they hold me accountable and feel better ### 5/5 — Only four classes *2026-06-12, version 1.15.5* I find all teachers to be very pleasant, exercises very fitting for my age 84 I find tai chai hard to follow ### 5/5 — Be Bold! *2026-06-10, version 1.15.5* Nice challenging workouts. Fell great after. Easy to follow along as well. ### 5/5 — Bold awesome *2026-06-03, version 1.15.4* This is an awesome quick exercise program! ### 5/5 — Classes *2026-06-01, version 1.15.4* Theses classes are great for every level !! Love them all ### 5/5 — Love Bold but app has issues *2026-05-31, version 1.15.4* Update 5/31/26: After a number of emails back and forth with Bold I was excited yesterday to see that the Program section was populating the Today section and showed up as completed. However, today it is back to being glitchy with a class in the Today section that is not in my program. It is a beginner class I took last year! I love Bold and have been using the app since last July, exercising 3-4 days/week. Up until last week the app has been great but recently I've run into several issues. The Program section is not updating and today's exercise and learn classes are ones I just completed. I sent an email a week ago about the Program section issues but got no response. I hope they fix it soon! ### 5/5 — Perfect for me! *2026-05-19* I love the variety of classes offered in Bold! The program recommended for me is helping me gain strength, improve balance and agility. It’s perfect for me and offers lots of classes that I can choose from now with many more I will do as my level of fitness and functioning improve. ### 5/5 — Love Bold but app has issues *2026-05-13, version 1.15.2* I love Bold and have been using the app since last July, exercising 3-4 days/week. Up until last week the app has been great but recently I've run into several issues. The Program section is not updating and today's exercise and learn classes are ones I just completed. I sent an email a week ago about the Program section issues but got no response. I hope they fix it soon! ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-05-12, version 1.15.2* Thrilled Kaiser gives subscription to Bold. Keeps me accountable to working out 3 times a weak. Glad to see there is a forum for all levels including for those of us with disabilities. ### 5/5 — Good class *2026-04-29, version 1.14.5* I give it 5 stars ### 5/5 — First timer *2026-04-25* I just started the Bold classes today. I like that I can mix a match a number of different classes to meet my needs. I also like that I can. I also like that I can see this on my TV. It makes it a lot easier to follow. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — please do not sign up and give them your health data *2025-04-23, version 1.6.12* they are working with unitedhealth and insurance, which is and will be detrimental for senior health care ### 1/5 — App hangs *2025-02-20, version 1.5.0* I can't see whether I like the content of this app, because I can't get past the "you are eligible" page. There is an arrow in the lower right corner of the page, but pressing it does absolutely nothing. I can't move forward and I can't move backward. The page just hangs. I have tried deleting the app and reinstalling it several times. What a waste ### 2/5 — Exercise programs *2026-05-17, version 1.15.2* Several times I have requested longer classes and based on cardio and strength. I am an active 71 year old and all these stretching workouts do no work for me. While I am able to pick and choose classes it would be nice to have bold set up a program for me. Also you cannot log external workouts. ### 2/5 — Bold *2024-08-23, version 1.2.20* I did two classes this morning but the app doesn’t show that I did. Some one please inform me how to use the app. Also has a hard time cast to my TV . ### 2/5 — The classes are pretty good but the app and website are glitchy as all get out. *2024-08-07, version 1.2.14* I used both the website and the app for about 20ish weeks before I had to just quit because I got so tired of all the glitches in the app and website. It would lose my progress, lose my next class in a program and it would take me back to an earlier program. It would lock up if you tried to take an assessment. And it would give me like 20+ badges I hadn’t earned sometimes all in a day, and not give me other badges I did earn. I finally drifted away from it because you just want to get started and go. You don’t want to have to screw around with the app or website all the time. I went to YouTube and found free Silver & Fit videos. No issues. Done. ### 4/5 — Great workout!! *2026-08-02, version 1.15.9* It’s a great combination of exercises to loosen up the whole body ### 4/5 — Close ups *2026-07-16, version 1.15.8* So far so good! It would be helpful to show close op of where hands are, and the movement close first and then roll right into the set. I’m never quite sure if my form is right ### 4/5 — Schedule *2026-04-08, version 1.14.2* It takes time and drive to want to get a better balance anyway practice these exercises and learning them to use when you’re living life traveling one here one there is a good thing ### 4/5 — Boo exercises *2026-03-24, version 1.14.2* Really like this set of exercises. Definitely loosens me up which I find necessary. I use this set in addition to walking biking and weights ### 4/5 — Saved workouts drag *2026-03-05, version 1.13.2* unfortunately, I can’t always join a live class and I look forward to trying the classes I’ve saved. But during the class they thought and lag. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — good start *2026-08-24, version 1.15.13* I really appreciate the quite small movements and the gentle encouragements along the way. ### 5/5 — Reliable *2026-08-23, version 1.15.13* I like all the options of this app and none of the coaches are annoying. The instructions are clear and we moved through the exercise exercises at a good pace. ### 5/5 — Day One *2026-08-09* 19 years ago, I had a heart transplant and I have been looking for an exercise program tailored to my needs and personality. I’ve come a long way and, after many years of trial and error, have found a place that feels like a good fit. ### 5/5 — Getting Started *2026-08-09, version 1.15.10* Did not understand how much I needed these guided classes to get back int moderate exercise. ### 5/5 — Finally. *2026-08-06, version 1.15.9* something that’s doable. ### 5/5 — Moderate *2026-08-04, version 1.15.9* Just what I need and I can rest when needed. Teaches me breathing techniques. ### 5/5 — Bold *2026-07-29, version 1.15.8* I love the bold classes. It really helps. Strengthen my legs in my balance. Thanks so much.GC ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-07-29, version 1.15.8* I’m so much more consistent working out at home at the time it’s convenient for me. I can take it traveling with me! I love the variety of the classes and trainers! I recommend it often to friends! ### 5/5 — Great work outs *2026-07-24, version 1.15.8* Challenging but you can go at your pen pace ### 5/5 — Great Selection of Workouts *2026-07-23* I like that this app has so many types, lengths, and difficulty levels of exercises to choose from. While I like that they will develop a set for you, I often skip some of those and pick my own. The app shows you what ones you did so you can repeat them, and you can save any as favorites. I had issues with the tracking (number of days was wrong, etc) and they fixed it after one email even though it took a while to correct. And they will change your program if you contact them.
