### 4/5 — so helpful

*2026-05-07, version 2.1.5*

Love the app and Robin’s style of leading Pilates—her helpful workouts and encouraging tone have helped me stick with it, and I’ve noticed a positive difference in my health!

I do wish the app had a way to leave a personal comment on workouts—the favorites list is so helpful, but it would be nice to be able to add a note/remember what I liked about a particular workout. Otherwise, fantastic wellness tool.

### 5/5 — Pilates

*2026-04-17, version 2.1.4*

Love the variety, and the challenge!

### 5/5 — Consistency!

*2026-04-08, version 2.1.4*

The app is so handy that I can sneak in a workout where and when works best for me!

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-03-26, version 2.1.4*

Lindywell is perfect for a busy mom who wants to move and do great things for her body without increasing her body’s stress. Stress is the enemy. Lindywell is the savior.

### 5/5 — Best ever

*2026-03-24, version 2.1.4*

I have been a member for four plus years and love my daily workouts. Could you include some for strengthening with osteoporosis? Many kudos

### 5/5 — LOVE this program

*2026-03-21, version 2.1.3*

I’ve been a member for several years and Robin and her entire team keep making it better and better.  The app is easy to use, and the beach scenery keeps me motivated during the cold New England winters.  You can stick with the calendar or easily find something to meet what you want to do.  I also LOVE the breath work sessions and all the recipes.  They just added several 10 minute sessions with weights and mobility.  Did several of them and I’m now done for the day.

### 5/5 — Feeling good

*2026-02-19, version 2.1.0*

Since I started my Pilates journey I an honestly say I feel better. I sleep better and just have more energy.

### 5/5 — Finally Found It!

*2026-02-06, version 2.1.0*

I have struggled with being overweight my entire life. As I entered my 50s, I was feeling despondent that I could never stick with exercise. Lindywell showed me that I don’t need to spend an hour a day sweating and miserable to take care of myself. Now I do about 20 minutes of Pilates about four times a week, as well as about 20 minutes walking. I have been doing this for a couple years now, and I’ve never stuck with anything this long!

### 5/5 — Beautiful. Life Changing.

*2026-02-04, version 2.1.0*

Cannot recommend this resource enough.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-02-02, version 2.0.18*

I love every workout with Robin. Thank you for the motivation. I also love “ Grace over guilt” and working from where you are at physically.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-01-31*

I've been a Lindywell member for about three years. My daughter in law introduced me to it.  I am almost 72 years old. I've had over 20 surgeries in my lifetime, 11 of those surgeries have been my feet. I've had both knees and one hip replaced--So I work constantly on my balance. I am a water aerobics instructor, but Pilates has rounded out my workouts and help my core, and my recovery from all those surgeries. It has helped me so much. I can't even begin to tell you and I love that you can get a hard workout in 15 minutes. Robin is easy to listen to an easy to follow. Keep up the good work. I love it!

### 5/5 — Just what I was looking for

*2026-01-29, version 2.0.18*

I have been struggling for years to get my strength and mobility back and everything was too hard and PT wasn’t helping anymore.  The app is very easy to use and has tons of workouts.

### 5/5 — Lindywell

*2026-01-29, version 2.0.18*

One of the best parts of my day❤️
I rarely miss a day! My weekly plan is to do the Lindywell calendar, and add an extra day on Saturday. I try to walk several days a week too!
I am trying to figure out a bit more cardio… something to work on as I age💖

### 5/5 — Best feeling in the world

*2026-01-25, version 2.0.18*

Nothing like completing a workout and feeling accomplished & strong especially after just having hip replacement 6 weeks ago! Love all the options with Robin and Lindywell!

### 5/5 — energized

*2026-01-22, version 2.0.18*

### 5/5 — First week

*2026-01-20, version 2.0.17*

This program is awesome. The classes are scheduled for you. I look forward to seeing Robin on the mat every morning!🫶

### 5/5 — Nothing but the BEST!

*2026-01-17, version 2.0.17*

Bottom line, you won’t be sorry! Start today and see how holistically this program can support your wellbeing goals!

### 5/5 — Lindywell is GREAT

*2026-01-15, version 2.0.17*

I’ve been a member of Lindywell for 3 years. This program provides flexible workouts for every age and ability.  After 12 years of physical therapy, I started doing regular Lindywell routines.  They are a continuation of what I learned in PT.  the recipes are fun and the facial workouts are outstanding.  SO worth the money,,,

### 5/5 — Absolute MUST Try Program

*2026-01-13, version 2.0.16*

This has been the one exercise program I have used consistently over the past year! Tailored workouts to your needs and they have a vast amount to choose from! No pressure and easy to follow instructions! Instructors are AMAZING! They make you feel strong and confident!

### 5/5 — My daily go to

*2026-01-12, version 2.0.16*

Once I was able to get into the healthy rhythm of opening my app Monday thru Friday.. I did not stop(ok not perfectly!!) BUT always a great idea for my body and mind every day of the week. Thank you Lindywell💕

### 1/5 — Impossible to cancel subscription

*2025-05-07, version 1.9.1*

No notices for renewals at full price. You have to dig to figure out how to cancel. Then, they charged me again!! After chatting with me via the app, they charged me for another month.

### 1/5 — Great program, terrible app

*2024-09-02, version 1.7.1*

I’ve been a member for several years, but the new version of the app is about to make me cancel my membership. The app is very glitchy and slow. Sometimes, I can’t get it to work at all. I’ve deleted and re-downloaded, but nothing has worked.

### 1/5 — Horrible customer service

*2023-12-06*

I used to like Lindywell, but I just rejoined but cancelled again cus how I was treated, I wanted back into the facebook group & they denied it cus of posts I did in the past about my special needs daughter, omg I feel so judged that’s an awful thing to say to someone & I havnt been posting cus how they made me feel , I was afraid to post anything, I wold just read others posted, so this was shocking, do this isn’t a member’s want to be in where im judged cus of my sweet special needs autistic daughter , no way no ones gonna treat her that way, I don’t need this toxic attitude, people are horrible, it’s why a lot of us special needs moms are isolated with the kids to protect them from horrible people like this, I’m so done! I have another awesome workout app where people don’t judge , so good riddance!😡😡😡😡

### 2/5 — Bugs

*2024-03-22, version 1.6.0*

Appreciate the updates but I am experiencing some issues ever since with the videos stopping part way through. The app freezes so I have to close it and restart the app every time. I hope you can fix it soon because otherwise I really love the app.

### 2/5 — Good Pilates weak app

*2022-08-06, version 1.0.6*

The new version of The Balanced Life app. Same exercises, less friendly app. Hopefully they will work on it to bring back some of the functions in the original.

### 2/5 — Does not Cast to TV

*2022-07-27, version 1.0.1*

When trying to cast the app through AirPlay to TV, the app constantly times out, crashes or just does not work through AirPlay. Other apps work just fine and have no issue casting but not this app. The app would definitely by 5 stars if this issue was fixed.

### 3/5 — Great workouts, App needs work

*2025-05-11*

Love the LindyWell team and the workouts. Each day there is a workout of the day waiting for you. However they seem randomly chosen and not following a series which I find frustrating. What I find disappointing is that although they have lots of workout series, there is no way to choose a path to follow. Ex: if you choose the “10 in 10 series”, it doesn’t save and automatically play the next one the next day for you. You have to save it to favorites, open it manually, and keep track of which workout in the series you’re on. I hope they add on some of these features because then it would be a 5/5!!

### 3/5 — Not so great

*2022-12-27, version 1.1.2*

The entire app only works for me half the time. I’ve been a member for 2 or 3 years and believe the older Balanced Life app worked much better.  Actually everything  on it worked. The new app doesn’t store my favorite work outs and the light green tabs on the bottom aren’t readable. They really should have given their color choices some thought before going with lime green on a background of white.

### 3/5 — Love the program but this App is really glitchy!

*2022-11-02, version 1.1.1*

I love the Sisterhood membership and all of the workouts, so many great choices. 

Unfortunately, the app is really glitchy for me and I have trouble accessing the workouts. Hope the bugs get fixed soon!

### 3/5 — Good exercise, app needs improvement

*2022-08-30*

The Pilates are great, Robin and her team are great. These are life changing exercises and if you trust the method you feel results. You get stronger! 
The app has room for improvement. The casting to tv does not work. Spend 5 minutes trying, restarting, loading, waiting and all energy you had to workout is gone. Turn it off, do no workout, and feel worse for having tried.  Sigh. 
I also miss the old calendar and being able to mark off workouts throughout the month. New functionality to track days lost the old functionality to track workouts you’ve done. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I hope the app gets better so I’ll enjoy the amazing Pilates and not be frustrated with the interface.

### 5/5 — Love the workouts!

*2026-07-23, version 2.1.12*

The workouts are fun and challenging. I can always find a workout that meets my needs that day.

### 5/5 — Works for me!

*2026-07-22, version 2.1.12*

Follow the calendar or mix it up using the library. More or less time. It works if you keep showing up.

### 5/5 — Never looked back!

*2026-07-11, version 2.1.12*

I’ve been a member for six years now. It was the best decision I made for my physical and mental health! 
Especially when I consider the cost savings compared to paying for a studio membership. I was fortunate to have had private classes before moving to a small town with no pilates studio at that time. There is one now but I am very happy with this membership with all it has to offer. I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you Lindywell Team!

### 5/5 — Gratitude

*2026-06-19, version 2.1.11*

I simply can't say enough about how grateful I am for Lindywell.  I have been a member for years and have benefited greatly from Robin and her team.  I have researched so many exercise programs, but none come close to the trust I have in Robin.  Not only is she knowledgeable, she cares deeply about her members and works earnestly to meet their goals and objectives for a strong body!  I am a huge fan of all things Lindywell!

### 5/5 — Safe Space

*2026-06-19, version 2.1.11*

There's something about Robin ( and team's) voice and tone... you actually look forward to starting a workout. I am finally focused on building strength and stability for the future rather than being preoccupied with what I look like. It feels good to be in such a healthy headspace, and I have the Lindywell app, videos, workout calendar, and all the things to thank for it.

### 5/5 — The Best

*2026-06-18, version 2.1.11*

Can’t live without my Lindywell. Simply the best for motivation, consistency and results!

### 5/5 — Lindywell

*2026-06-13, version 2.1.11*

I joined in march of 2021 and was not consistent at all and then in October  I thought well you’re paying for this use . Since then I’ve completed just over 2500 routines . My energy is off the charts I feel fantastic and I can keep up with my grandchildren! Bonus I can squat i can run( but I don’t like it ) and I can jump !!! Try it you won’t be disappointed

### 5/5 — Lindywell

*2026-05-30, version 2.1.8*

I joined in march of 2021 and was not consistent at all and then in October something switched and boom I’ve been on my mat and my reformer every day for the last  40 months consistently . I’ll be 61 next month and I feel fantastic but better than that I feel strong and capable . I have energy and motivation all thanks to the robin and her team can’t thank you enough

### 5/5 — Amazing workouts to make you feel good!

*2026-05-26, version 2.1.6*

I have been a paid member for 5 years. The short workouts allow me to be consistent, which is key! 
The app itself keeps getting better. The most recent update I have enjoyed is the addition of a breathwork routine popping up at the end of the workouts. 
I keep hoping there will be a way to write private comments about the workouts so I can track when I last did that particular workout or what was challenging, etc.

### 5/5 — Awesome resource

*2026-04-27, version 2.1.4*

Really can’t say enough about this app. I can select any workout I need any day and do it from the comfort of my home. It is motivating and has enough variety to meet me wherever I am on a particular day. Highly recommend.
