Why?

What is it for if you have the Peleton app ?
Downloaded the app and it’s nice it’s included in the Peloton subscription but what does it offer that you can’t get with the Peloton app ?
It shows guided classes but you have to remember what you did as there appears to be no history and next class doesn’t come up automatically. The Peloton app allows you to see your history and then manually find the next class in Breathwrk! The goals doesn’t appear to work. Just hangs on continue.

Does not work

This app is a great idea, but it doesn’t work at all.
Try again and try harder.

Peloton acquisition spoils the experience

Too many bugs as a paid subscribing user I can’t seem to finish the breath test and procedure to the next screen to set up my goals et cetera the screens are no longer as fun originally seems to be too corporateised.

I don’t think the engineering team is even actively maintaining the app. There are several screens in the settings or account sections that lead to dead ends and no op buttons.

Crashes mid session and won’t let me log in without paying

I’m a longtime Peloton user with a years-long, active All-Access Membership. I have a Peloton Bike, so Breathwrk is supposed to be included with my membership.

Everything was fine until I finished a session. The app crashed, logged me out, and then apparently decided that my years-long Peloton membership no longer exists. When I tried to log back in, I was told I didn’t have a membership and was prompted to PAY for one.

I do, in fact, have a membership. It is active. It has been active for YEARS. I am not hallucinating my Peloton Bike.

I tried contacting support, but instead of connecting me with a human being, I was trapped in an endless conversation with an AI bot that refused to let me speak to an actual representative. Which is especially ironic for an app whose entire purpose is supposedly helping people manage stress.

10/10 for irony. 0/10 for actually helping me breathe. Please fix the membership issue and let customers talk to a human when your app locks them out of a service they already pay for.

love the app but it stopped working for me

I really love the app and am excited to do some of the guided programs, but the start button is unresponsive. Hoping a fox can happen quickly!

How hard is it to get this app to just open?

I’ve use this app for well over a year all of a sudden it gives you continued to sign in prompts and then when you sign in using your Apple ID, it just closes. I purchased a subscription and it’s not working at all. Developers - do your job.

Pas configurable

L’appli est pas mal mais je veux faire une routine et il m’est impossible de configurer un des écran pour avoir accès à ma routine. Chaque fois, je dois me rappeler du nom de la routine et faire une recherche. Pretty annoying

good but needs more free options/variety

i love doing breathwork, i have chronic anxiety and i always just need more air cause i feel like i never have enough! this app is great but i wish it was a little bit smoother in the aspect of a fair share of variety and options for subscription free.

App stopped working, no support

Initially I really loved this app! Great prompts and high quality content. However after a few weeks I am not able to access videos, and have reached out several times to support for help without any responses. Loved it when it was working but disappointed to spend money on something that stopped working.

C’mon, small changes would make it so much better

So, having an app that offers daily repeatable meditations but does not offer favourites. An app that offer day 1-2-3 courses but does not have history of done meditations.
On the positive, great breath-works, you can adjust on meditations if you want the guide or the music louder.
Please fix favourites and history so the app justifies the subscription…

Bait and switch

It's not a free app, there is no free option.

Where is Sam Yo ?!?

Maybe I’m missing something but I can’t find any of his meditations on the app.

I was really hoping, given his expertise, he would be added to the meditation team.

Otherwise, great platform.

The meditations are the same ones you would find in the meditation app, but it’s nice to separate the tracking and goals.

The breath work feature is nice too. Would he great to connect this to HRV on apple watch and see how metrics improve over time.

Excited to see where this can go.

I started adding in meditation to bring my cortisol back down after hard workouts, as that’s an issue for me and hinders weight loss. I’m so amped up after words 🤣

Would also be nice if instructors reminded us to include this in our routines, much like stretching as well.

Inoperable

The play arrow does not work. None of the exercises play.

App is too glitchy

I used to really enjoy this app. All I want is a few things. 1: keep me logged in, like it used to. 2: let me actually adjust the length of the exercises, like it used to. 3: keep my sound settings the same on my breathing exercises between days. Fix the errors, and I’ll go back and add stars. It was a good app before!

Buggy

I love the app but it’s been so buggy the last few months. Everytime I select the dailies the play button doesn’t work. This is my favorite feature and I can’t even use it. Did not get fixed with the recent update.

It’s not free

You download and then you get through a test and it mandates that you have to sign up for a trial of their Pro package. Don’t bother downloading

Disappointing user interface

The actual classes are great, but you can’t save favourites, it’s impossible to find previous classes you’ve taken. You can’t search by instructor either. Terrible interface, but brilliant classes. Hopefully improvements are imminent.

Used to be a favourite app

Now there’s a paywall and can’t access any of the exercises. Such a shame.

Doesn’t work

Worked fine for about a week, then stopped.

Ok, but missing some key features

It’s ok and right now I prefer to do the meditation classes in the peloton app instead. I would use this more if they added in heart rate monitor so I could see how the sessions influence my heart rate.
