### 2/5 — Flex body scale unit

*2026-07-13*

I am trying to use it for the flex body scale unit and uploaded it and can’t be able to finish installing it because it will ask for a code sent to your phone which is not sent and no other way to activate it. Poorly design

### 2/5 — App does work and no support

*2025-03-29*

Paid for subscription however it keeps giving error of authenticate . Last 2 months not able to
Use it despite multiple attempts to reach out to team no response

### 2/5 — Locked out of the app. Disappointed.

*2025-01-03*

I have been using the Flexnest app as a paid user for last one year. I have realised that I have been locked out of the app from last 20 days with a message saying please authenticate.

Reached out to Support on WhatsApp, but no reply. If this does not get solved I will have to cancel my subscription and probably the devices will go to a waste. I have flex bike and a rowing machine.

### 4/5 — Getting error in App , “Attention please authenticate”

*2024-07-15, version 2.0.8*

And when clicking on ok it’s stuck on the screen.

### 1/5 — Buggy app

*2024-05-27, version 2.0.6*

Upon selecting the guest user option, the app crashes while specifying the height. I have tried using both feet as well as centimetre options.

### 2/5 — Can not take my mobile number

*2024-02-15*

I accidentally deleted my account. Now while creating new account with my Apple ID, it is giving error of “ mobile already taken”   

I am not able to access Flexnest application at all. Please help. Already send e mail.

### 1/5 — Hangs after asking to authenticate

*2023-12-21, version 2.0.3*

App shows message to “please authenticate”. I can’t logout or login to my account. No way to authenticate. All older data has disappeared.

### 1/5 — App not working

*2023-09-05, version 2.0.1*

Since new update app is not working. It is not letting me log in or do anything. Please help.

### 1/5 — Want to give minus stars

*2023-08-02, version 2.0.1*

A. The net didn’t provide sufficient details about it.

B. The app is not connecting

I want to return the equipment right away.

### 2/5 — App keeps crashing

*2023-07-19*

Haven’t been able to access my app for a while . Keeps saying “please authenticate” and then fails .  Provides no further information on what is required to be done . 

Please do let me know on how to fix this . Cause I’ve been using my flexiscale as not so smart anymore .

**Developer response:** Hi, you can also write to us at developer@theflexnest.com. We will guide you immediately on how to fix the issue.

### 1/5 — Constantly begs for location permission

*2023-04-01*

Even though I’m only using the scale the app just constantly begs for location permission. Any time you open the app or navigate to any screen at all it asks for location permission. This is a terrible user experience.

### 1/5 — Changing from 4 star to 1 star

*2023-01-23*

What this company has done is just scammy. They have changed their app so that virtually everything is hidden behind a subscription. I understand premium features like exercise classes, virtual rides etc being premium features. I have no use for them and only use quick ride to log a ride. However, what they have done is that once the ride is finished, you cannot access any of the details of the ride unless you get a subscription. This is just ridiculous. You cannot stop me from accessing my own data and I bet it is against Apple’s policies as well. 

I highly recommend people don’t buy this, as the costly equipment is likely to be scrap without you continuously giving them money!

If they change their policies, I will revisit the rating.

### 2/5 — Not working

*2023-01-23, version 1.73*

My Flexnest is not connecting to my iPhone. It worked for 1 month.
What to do?

### 2/5 — Nice concept but too buggy

*2023-01-22*

The concept of getting your instrument stats on the phone or tablet is nice but the app has just too many bugs and most of the features are only available for subscribers. Until the last update the workout history was available for nonsubscribers but now we need a subscription to see our past workouts. Also the graphs are not showing properly and if the workout is even paused for a while, the stats are completely messed up.

**Developer response:** Hi,
Request you to please reach out to developer@theflexnest.com to report your concerns. We hope to resolve them at the earliest. Regards

### 2/5 — Not working correctly

*2022-11-05, version 1.68*

The readings on the app, taken from the weighing scale, is completely wrong.

For instance, it shows my bmi to be more then 22000

### 1/5 — App doesn’t connect with the Flexpad treadmill, support not responding

*2022-09-20, version 1.63*

App is buggy and it doesn’t connect with the treadmill. I have reached the customer support multiple times and they are not responding to my request.

### 2/5 — Can’t login

*2022-07-20, version 1.60*

I am unable to login using the account used on your website. Please sync the app data with website data. It’s really annoying to create another account for app.

### 2/5 — Flexnest app

*2022-06-27*

The app has been malfunctioning, showing wrong data on all parameters except weight, like body fat percentage, body water rate etc. it has never happened before, been happening since today morning only, could you guys fix it please? Thank you

**Developer response:** Hi,
Sorry for the problem you are facing. Can you please write an email to developer@theflexnest.com with screenshots about the issue and your registered mobile number/username details. Will try to get it fixed asap. Regards

### 1/5 — Please Authenticate???

*2026-05-04*

I WILL, but can you let me though? Pathetic. I had recommended this product to my friends in the past, however not anymore. The product might be good but the app is third class. Haven't been able to use this product properly since 1-2 years now as the app won't work. Fix it. Else, people will move on. Like me.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy premium of it not worth it

*2026-03-05*

There is no need to buy premium. I bought it for a year, but haven’t been able to use it. Not even once the apps keep on crashing. The workout is not saved. If I download the exercise off-line, it doesn’t download the app keeps on crashing every time I open my profile in the app. It is totally not worth spending. Not even one rupee on this. I have multiple times send them emails suggestions. They even replied back that try to re-login. New update is coming but nothing works. It is a worst app and even after a long time, it still doesn’t work, and my money of yearly subscription is not Going to come back

### 1/5 — Full of bugs

*2026-03-04*

I am using flex bike and weight scale since long back, from last updates, I’m not able to synchronise my weight scale, I’m getting an error indicates wrong birthday, which is not correct after several attempt of birth. Save still, I’m getting the same issue, then I have deleted my account successfully now. I am not able to create new account, with my email address and mobile number and won’t be able to get email to reset my password

Whilelogin with previous registered email address and password. I won’t be able to login through account getting error. Message details are not valid while signup. I’m getting error message that email address is already registered.

### 1/5 — More like a scam

*2025-08-30, version 2.1.14*

App crashes, you need to buy subscription for everything. The UI is bad, and the customer support is non existent.

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2025-08-13, version 2.1.13*

Waste of sub as app doesn’t work on iPad or iphone.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2025-08-13, version 2.1.13*

The app is extremely buggy. Sometimes it won’t record heart rate. Sometimes it just crashed. I own a Flexnest rower which is great and full credit to the company. But the app needs some serious attention and lots of love to really bring it up to speed and make it work flawlessly.

### 1/5 — Not able to login

*2024-11-11, version 2.1.10*

I deleted the account and I am not able to login with email id it says incorrect email or password after resetting the password multiple time not able to login and I tried to mobile number login with OTP and yet it says invalid OTP 

How to login in again ??

### 1/5 — Privacy issue!

*2024-09-21, version 2.0.9*

Why do I need to provide my phone number to use a device that I have paid for(heftily)? All you need is just an email address to authenticate and authorize users.

### 1/5 — Register Problems

*2024-08-02*

I purchased this today and it wouldn’t let me register. I tried all the way they suggested but nothing worked. I cancelled my subscription. M

### 1/5 — Terrible App! - Might be an understatement

*2024-07-04, version 2.0.8*

Authentication required for what?! Streamline the subscription strategy ASAP. Sort it out or loses customers. Not gonna buy Flexnest after this weighing scale dies.
