### 1/5 — Soo bad

*2024-04-06, version 106.33*

I can’t get in my account I get logged out and now it’s such a nightmare

### 1/5 — Website from the dark ages

*2023-11-17, version 106.33*

Shocking website, primary school kids could have designed it much better

### 1/5 — Poor

*2023-10-21, version 106.33*

Not at all user friendly and doesn’t seem to be up to date.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for families.

*2023-10-03, version 106.33*

So difficult to book activities for more than one child. Have to log out and log in with separate details for each person.

### 1/5 — Terrible app!

*2023-04-15, version 106.33*

If you are trying to book for a family forget it. Can only book one space which is useless. And the phone support is non existence and cuts you off after 5 mins if they don’t answer. Worst system ever and actually prevents me using local facilities because it’s so hard to book spaces.

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2023-02-23, version 106.23*

Difficult to navigate and not very accessible information

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2023-01-20, version 5.112*

This app is not use friendly and over complicated. Surely council could have purchased better software.

### 1/5 — Bookings

*2022-07-29, version 5.105.2*

Not an easy way to book things.

### 1/5 — Aberdeenshire

*2022-07-15, version 5.95*

Absolute shambles

### 1/5 — User guide needed to see the free summer booking area

*2022-07-02, version 5.95*

Seems impossible to find out how to book any of the free spots for activities..jb085£&@

### 1/5 — User Accounts

*2022-06-12, version 5.95*

Extremely frustrated trying to add and book a second child into a swimming session as the app will not allow me to add a second account. 

App design takes you straight to membership types and won’t let you progress further, no interest in committing to a membership type, simply want to book kids into a swim session.

Stupid, bloated and over complicated! Well done Aberdeenshire Council

### 2/5 — Opening times \ exercise classes

*2022-06-08, version 5.95*

Surely gym needs to open at 6am rather than the existing times. Also would be worth looking into starting classes from 7am so people can get their classes in before their work starts

### 1/5 — Poor

*2022-05-10, version 5.95*

Can’t believe this digital service is running

### 1/5 — Never works

*2025-07-31, version 108.41*

Always not working - go to book and it never accepts a booking - nightmare of an app

### 1/5 — Shouldn’t be this difficult

*2025-07-11, version 108.41*

Cannot book swim session for other members of the family as bookings can only be made for the individual who is logged in. I thought a workaround would be to login with each account individually (which is ridiculous) but even that didn’t work as the “Continue to Payment” button doesn’t actually do anything and you can’t pay. If you can’t book and can’t pay then the app really is a complete waste of time. General navigation within the app is poor and clunky, it really shouldn’t be this difficult to book sessions for the family and it means you use the services less because of the faff. There’s already a lack of public services available and this app makes it even more difficult to access them. Terrible.

### 1/5 — Wrong times

*2025-06-17, version 108.41*

Today was the third time I had booked a swim session for 1 o clock, only to get to the pool and be told there are no swim sessions at this time and the app had booked me into a swim session for the next day. With this issue it makes it impossible to know what times there are swimming sessions as the dates are all wrong.

### 1/5 — Induction

*2025-04-14, version 108.29.1*

I can’t even book my induction online after getting my membership the app isn’t great their memebership system isn’t that clear either

### 1/5 — Worst App

*2025-04-09, version 108.9*

Worst app to navigate

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2025-02-24, version 108.9*

Initially the app was good (once you got it working after getting given no pin and having issues with that side of things).
After the new login process was released I cannot login, I have followed the simple instructions MULTIPLE TIMES now, even going through the “contact us” element and submitting a “Microsoft form” I’m informed there is nothing wrong with my account!
Speaking to Staff I was informed that the password needed to be SPECIFICALLY 14 characters long and include a Capital letter, number and a special symbol (all rather standard), however some of the special symbols don’t work!
Even if you choose a “special symbol” that doesn’t work the app will still say it accepts your password even though in reality it doesn’t!
Due to this you are required to call to book things but then if you try this your call is either ignored or no one is at the counter to answer!!
Overall not only does the App not work correctly but the service provided by Aberdeenshire council and the company contracted to create the app are also shocking and heavily lacking!!

### 1/5 — Login

*2025-02-01*

Wasn’t given a Pin when I signed and paid as the system wouldn’t allow.
Was informed to try signing in when pin was requested click forgotten, no option for this was available initially after jump g through several hoops finally got to request a new pin which was not sent as page the displayed the service was unavailable.
No accessible timetables for the desired  pool making impossible to check availability or last minute changes!
In summary a way to complicated app that has huge issues!

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2024-10-22, version 107.110*

Hard to navigate & impossible to reset password!

Classes I know are on(as instructor told me so) not showing and no one on the phone can help with booking them.

### 1/5 — Won’t let me book

*2024-07-29, version 106.33*

Very glitchy and despite being and app to book activities I’m unable to book!

### 1/5 — Clunky and not great for family bookings

*2024-04-07, version 106.33*

It is difficult to find what you are looking for and booking is even more of a hassle.

### 5/5 — Swim

*2025-04-04, version 108.9*

Excellent booking system

### 5/5 — Swimming

*2024-08-21, version 106.33*

The site for the swimming pool is so easy to use and so handy

### 5/5 — Love the app

*2022-04-21, version 5.79*

Congrats on this app, really easy to use, book, and pay for sessions…

### 5/5 — Live Life

*2021-08-12, version 5.2*

Bringing together physical (i.e. sport) activities & other leisure activities such as library books & magazines in one app is brilliant!

### 4/5 — Payment process

*2026-02-10, version 109.82*

Great app but payment process a bit archaic

### 3/5 — Banchory Leisure

*2023-12-04, version 106.33*

Online system great idea but often fails to take number of players or allows you to pay when you do
Phoning often results in no one picking up

### 3/5 — J

*2022-11-29, version 5.112*

Love using the facilities but think the 50 mins sessions should end now and return to hour sessions more flexibility needed

### 3/5 — App

*2022-04-19, version 5.79*

I find the app easy to use to book the Aqua fit. Very difficult to pay, and always have to phone for help.

### 2/5 — I expect better

*2025-03-05, version 108.9*

Poor quality app.  Why can’t autofill be used? Why do the entry pages never seem to complete? Why do classes mysteriously disappear after they’ve been booked? Amateurish app.  Very old-fashioned.

### 2/5 — Not fantastic… yet…

*2023-10-08, version 106.33*

I can’t make a full booking on the app yet. Quite frustrating as when I went to make the booking, an error occurred, I went to use the website instead and the space had gone. There are a few things the app could do better on, but I’ll look forward to see when it is fixed. Otherwise it’s well laid out and easy to use.
