### 3/5 — Add features

*2026-08-13*

App generally works good. Features to add would be to see your place on the waitlist and the ability to change your spot in class to another open station

### 2/5 — App Feels 10 Years Outdated

*2026-07-27*

App needs to add way more functionality. Not that difficult to understand. Long ways from my precious gym app at Equinox. The fact that I cannot change stations after booking a class (like when you want to change seats on the airline app) is mind boggling. The app needs a complete overhaul if CS is going to try to compete with upper tier gyms.

### 2/5 — App Glitches out

*2026-07-14*

The app glitches out. I can’t book classes as all buttons have vanished . Suggested improvements - see what number you are on the waitlist.  Fix bugs.

### 3/5 — Profile editing

*2026-06-24*

I use the app to book classes but it really bugs me that I can’t update my profile photo

### 3/5 — Okay app

*2026-03-04*

This app is okay but it needs work. It should send a reminder for fitness classes 24 hours before. It will also kick me off a waitlist for some reason and I have to add myself back.

### 3/5 — Things to improve

*2026-03-04*

Would be neat to see what muscle groups the classes will be focusing on. Also would be cool to share your schedule with friends in the app. For future classes you wanna book, to set a reminder feature to sign up-an alert.

### 3/5 — Could use some updates

*2026-02-26, version 1.4.6*

I’ll keep the short and sweet:
1. Add a feature to update spot selections instead canceling and rebooking a class.
2. Indicate the general fitness level of the class. Range from Beginner to advance.
3. Include QR code component for “VIP” card holders where discounts are automatically applied when purchasing CS merch/equipment instead of having to speak with an ops manager to take advantage of said discount.

### 2/5 — Lacking features

*2026-02-03*

Very mid app for a “luxury” studio. Can’t see what number you are on a waitlist or how many people are on it so you have no clue if you have a chance of getting in or not.

### 2/5 — Upgrade the App!!

*2026-01-03*

Please update the app with functionality members actually want… 1. Ability to change your class spot. 2. Show where you are on the waitlist 3. Definitions of badges and fix bugs to not show already completed badges. 4. Some type of buddy feature so you can see where your friend is booked in the class.. we don’t care about a fancy banner at the top.

### 3/5 — No search features

*2025-12-09*

The app itself is functional but you have to call or visit gym in-person to place holds on account or to cancel membership. App needs a search feature.

### 2/5 — For a luxury gym, they don’t invest in their technology

*2025-11-29*

User experience for this app is trash. It’s constantly sending me notifications for the same badges I already completed. You should be able to edit what spot you sign up for after youre in the class and be able to see where you’re at in the waitlist. Let us leave reviews or in app feedback for the coaches. There needs to be a friends feature so we can go to the same classes aa our friends. The calendar syncing is faulty and only works 50% of the time. Please take the feedback and fix the app!!

### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2025-10-28*

The app isn’t bad, I’d say it’s sufficient. It really should show you what number you are on the waitlist so you have an idea as to whether you’re going to get into the class. You should also be able to open the spot map for a class after booking and select a new spot if there are others available.

### 3/5 — Love the gym, hate the app.

*2025-10-12*

This app has constant issues both on the mobile app and at the studio. It is not uncommon to have the app freeze up, be unable to book a class, not display history correctly, even this morning it’s offering a complementary health assessment and is frozen on that page unable to book a class.

### 3/5 — Could Be Better

*2025-10-06*

Review is based on the app itself and not an individual studio. Booking a class is pretty straightforward. However, I wish more detail was provided for CS4 prior to booking and the ability to switch spots/bikes in reserved classes after booking. Right now you would need to cancel and rebook. No Apple Wallet integration for the membership card either and forces you to open the app.

### 3/5 — Good enough. Unfortunately

*2025-09-24, version 1.4.2*

Just joined in the last year. I really like it so far. Seems like a more reasonable option from equinox. However, they really need to upgrade and update their class system.

Besides everything else the other reviews mention, there is still no way to get specific details on the muscle focuses each class will do. (If a CS4 class is going to do mainly arms, legs, core). The solid core app has this ability so I’m not sure why this one doesn’t.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible app/terrible gym

*2026-07-29*

I went for a trial class and they would not let me go in without downloading the app. The class was 60 mins on the schedule but ended on 40 mins with the actual workout being around 22 minutes. If you’re going here for the workout classes, don’t waste your time. They’re horrible!!

### 1/5 — Love CS the app is horrendous

*2026-07-29*

Occasions, I’ve tried to book a class right at the week mark, when I book the class is already full and I’m immediately waitlisted split seconds after I’ve booked. Then when I try to cancel a class, it doesn’t go through and then I realize that my class hasn’t been canceled so then I’ll get docked for that.

### 1/5 — App sucks

*2026-07-01, version 1.4.9*

The app is so slow when getting class schedules. Often fails silently and you cannot do anything

### 1/5 — Buggy app

*2026-03-03, version 1.4.6*

Will crash every time you try to book a Pilates class

### 1/5 — Horrible UX

*2026-02-25, version 1.4.6*

This app sucks, you’re not able to filter to choose classes so you have to scroll the whole screen. If you book a class you can’t go back and change your spot without cancelling the class altogether. Y’all need serious UX feedback reach out to me!

### 1/5 — Kill the stupid ads

*2026-02-06*

I like the club.  It costs a lot to be a member.  If they can’t make it work without getting a couple pennies by feeding us stupid ads, then it is probably time to find a less expensive gym.  One that doesn’t force you to look at a stupid ad for a stupid product.

### 1/5 — Slow & Full of Bugs

*2025-10-12*

This app is so slow & for some reason, always has a bug. It’s very inconvenient when trying to book a class and you can’t even click on anything. This app has been like this for the entirety of my membership.

### 1/5 — Desperately needs a facelift

*2025-09-25*

The app works barely… and that’s where the positive stuff ends. I’m surprised the app doesn’t have the black bars. Please just bring the app into 2025, I know y’all have plenty of money.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2025-09-08, version 1.4.2*

Fully glitchy just joined

### 1/5 — Worst App Ever

*2025-09-07, version 1.4.2*

This app is awful.  Calendar suddenly stopped syncing.  Nobody can help.  Support takes you to the club where nobody can help.  Reset the app and lost everything regarding history and membership.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — It works.

*2026-01-29*

• Clearer seat maps that indicate where the front of the room is

• Support for a dark mode theme

• Ability to book med spa services (red light therapy, cryotherapy chamber, etc.) directly through the app

### 5/5 — Very good

*2025-11-02, version 1.4.4*

Amazing

### 5/5 — Great app for my fitness destination

*2025-09-22, version 1.4.2*

The Club Studio app is perfect and gives me everything I need as a member of the club

### 5/5 — Motivational

*2025-09-22*

Incredibly efficient. Incredibly easy to book a class and receiving achievement updates keeps me motivated to keep going.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2023-07-12, version 1.1.8*

Love how you can track achievements and see all that progress!

### 5/5 — Great easy booking system

*2023-07-12, version 1.1.8*

Love this app and love this gym! Can’t get enough.

### 5/5 — Great job! Easy to use!

*2023-06-21*

The club studio app makes it easy to book classes and track my workouts!

### 4/5 — Could be better

*2026-05-15*

App is easy to book classes but frustrating that you can’t see if the class is full or have the ability to switch your spot once you book the class. Also wish you could see your waitlist status

### 4/5 — Sign In records

*2024-12-10, version 1.3.5*

App is fine but needs to show the days you’ve checked in

### 4/5 — I like simplicity but need a few things more

*2023-12-30*

I appreciate the simplicity of the Club Fitness app, and the achievements section adds a nice motivational touch. However, it would be more convenient if there was an option to directly book classes to Google or iCalendar. Additionally, having detailed class descriptions would be helpful. For instance, distinguishing between reformer classes for beginners and advanced practitioners would be beneficial for users to make informed choices. Overall, a great app with room for these improvements!
