This app will NOT teach you Bikram yoga
This app is made for ppl who already have a Bikram practice and have taken many classes in a studio with a qualified teacher. If you are new to Bikram this app will not teach you. It only gives photos and no language to set up the pose which can and most likely will result in injury. If you want to learn Bikram, go to a studio and learn with a qualified teacher who can help you exactly where you are physically.
This app works well as a timer for the poses. It did feel like some of the timing is a little off.. too long or too short in certain postures. But this IS something that can also vary a bit in live classes too. I’ve always dreaded the one or two teachers who seem to relish the “torture chamber” and hold the challenging poses “forever” 😅.
The photos are beautiful and the app works well for what it is.. a timer. The green line is a nice feature. I like to use this app to take a break from my Bikram audio recording since there are no classes where I now live.

No script - wish I could get a refund
This literally is just a picture of the poses played with a timer so you have to stare at the screen the whole time- Bikram is all about the script! Update- was able to get the sound to work and in theory this would be awesome but it has a few glitches. The 60 min skips sevasvna the whole floor series. A 75 min session would be ideal so they could bring them back. Also, some of the poses don’t move, they are just static so you have to manually override which isn’t helpful. This is almost good. Would love to see the 75 min session introduced and the glitches corrected.

Response from developer
Hello. Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear you're unhappy with the app. This app is developed for simplicity, and each posture is verbally introduced by name and set, in addition to screen text and image. If you are not hearing sound, please check the settings for 'Voice' level. Please do note, as per in the description, this application is geared toward experienced yogis specific to the Bikram sequence.
Exactly what I was looking for
All the yoga studios are closed and I’ve been practicing on my own for a year. I was so tired of hearing the voices of these random teachers giving motivation and other nonsense tips. Now I can do my hot yoga with my own music. I can listen to gongs, mantras, or Tool, and still get all the timing right for the series. Perfect!

Stay Away
This is awful, super basic and useless if your not a pro as there is little to no instructions other than pose name and breathe in/out. Some poses skip shavasa and give you poses back to back while the sitting portion of poses don’t even give you enough shavasa time for a single breath. This is why trial periods are important, I contacted the developer after my first use for a refund and have been ignored for a week now.
They could update this by making a genuine bikram routine and adding helpful advise on posture and motivation throughout the poses that would make the simplicity of the app bearable. But as it stands, I won’t even use this as is.

Perfect for the advanced yogi
No dialogue. Just your own music or silence. If you know the poses and sequence you can’t beat this simple yet elegant app.
