### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2026-07-25, version 109.34*

Horrible to use, very unintuitive. Type in card details every time you need to pay. Just abysmal to be honest.  Almost put me off even bothering to use the gym! 
Needs a lot of work.

### 1/5 — Utter rubbish

*2026-01-28, version 109.34*

This website is utter rubbish . Possibly understandable since it’s been developed and Kirklees council have sanctioned its roll out

### 1/5 — Still no Apple Pay 7years on…

*2025-11-16, version 109.34*

I use this app to make court bookings. 

It never retains payment details which means typing out card details every time... It badly needs Apple Pay or a way to retain details.

Should also be able to store the member card in Wallet so you don’t have to worry if you have forgotten your card.

### 1/5 — Not an app!

*2025-05-27, version 108.29*

This is probably one of the worse apps o have seen. Has a developer tried to use this as a new customer - I gave up!

### 1/5 — Complicated

*2025-05-24, version 108.29*

Not very helpful to navigate

### 1/5 — Retry

*2025-02-04, version 107.92*

I have been a member for over two years, but suddenly I am unable to access the app to book a swim session

### 1/5 — Ryan

*2024-12-14, version 107.92*

No option to create an account so this means I’m unable to make any bookings. Useless

### 1/5 — Poor experience

*2024-10-24, version 107.92*

I can’t log in to my account on the app, it says “service unreachable” so I can’t book classes or use any of the features

### 1/5 — Frequently doesnt work

*2024-10-20, version 107.92*

App often not working to take class
bookings at 9pm when new date released, then miss opportunity for classes as they are full. It is a waste of membership fee

### 1/5 — Worst app in the world

*2024-09-05, version 107.92*

Utter mess of an app. Surprised anyone actually joins the gym. I have been trying for nearly a day to sign up for the gym with this software useless.
