### 3/5 — Fine but busy

*2026-07-30*

It’s fine, but it’s far, far too busy as an interface, like they’ve tried to cram so much in it all looks a bit messy. 

Basically it’s the app version of puregym; a little too busy and if you’re expecting someone to wipe down the equipment you’ve got another thing coming

### 3/5 — Good workouts bad app interface

*2026-07-21*

The workouts are really good. Enjoying my time training. However the app interface isn’t the best. The phone and how it functions on Apple Watch aren’t synced. If you want a great example of how a fitness app should on the phone and watch you should look at the Ladder app. Best interface I have used.

### 3/5 — Great training

*2026-07-13*

The app is awesome for training but the subscription is EXTREMELY expensive.

### 2/5 — User Friendly App

*2026-07-03*

Its kinda hard to swap through the App to keep up with the workout and to track your workout. Hopefully the more i use the app the more Ill get use to it.

### 5/5 — New Updates

*2025-12-12, version 3.0.9*

Love the new updates, app created, the guys listen, changes are made - chef’s kiss guys

### 5/5 — The best about!

*2025-11-21*

I’ve used this app before the update and it was very good, now it’s just next level! A pocket PT on your phone from a brand that is steeped in fitness and actually knows what it’s doing. Not only will you get fitter and stronger but it will be celebrated with the community along the way. Alls you need is a gym and this app on your phone, Marchon to the moon baby!!!

### 2/5 — For the price there are many better options

*2025-07-22*

The fact there this uses an app and that completely utilizes video but does us that to describe the movements you’re supposed to be focusing while showing the video is huge disadvantage in today’s fitness app market. Also most gyms are packed these days and some of the workouts required that you set up equipment in an awkward way that just wouldn’t be practical in crowded gyms. Also the interface wasn’t that user friendly. A lot of the time the exercise names were abbreviated as though I know what these abbreviations already mean. Not bad, just not great. For that price point, I need you be great. Also cancel membership is weird. Not hard but it’s different from other apps. I’d fix that

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-06-09, version 2.0.58*

Love the app, has really helped me progress my strength training. The only thing I would love is the ability to graph my progress

### 5/5 — Great product

*2025-04-21*

Iv been using this app for the online gain programme for almost a year now and it’s been the best thing I have invested in years! Designed by masters in their profession, the app it’s self I have never had any issues with and has always ran smoothly. Saves all my weights in the programme each week etc. Now the actual programming it’s self is 10 out of 10 👌🏻 paddy and the boys on the gain programme have perfected the training splits etc and I have seen some serious physical gains in strength in the gym. I locked in for 12 months to get a reduced cots of £60 a month, I hope once that comes to an end I get to stick at the price as I have been a loyal user for the time I have been on programme  and will continue to do so. Amazing product, well worth every penny!

### 5/5 — 10/10 App. Thank You God.

*2025-03-10, version 2.0.53*

Change my life.

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2024-12-16, version 2.0.42*

I feel my strength going up so well and fitness feels fun again !

### 5/5 — Great app, very aesthetically pleasing and easy to use

*2024-10-07, version 2.0.32*

Love this app

### 5/5 — The best fitness app

*2024-09-21, version 2.0.30*

Used many apps. Marchon is by far the greatest. Top quality 👍

### 5/5 — Marchon Training is the real deal

*2024-07-12*

Fantastic app, great programming and the coaches are constantly pumping extra value into the app and the programming.  Also coaches have been more than willing to answer any question I’ve had for them.  In a world where everyone and their brother has a fitness app the Marchon team stands head and shoulders above everyone else.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Charged for subscription

*2026-04-08*

Asked twice for a refund (did not use the app at all. Didn’t even know I had a subscription) they blocked my messages after the 2nd request. These guys only car about money.

### 1/5 — Free month ???

*2024-12-25, version 2.0.44*

They give u the first month for free but it’s not a trial. They pretend you to pay for the first three months in any case.🤮

### 1/5 — Poor Customer Service

*2024-10-23, version 2.0.36*

No reply to my emails for a legit question.

### 1/5 — Subscription

*2024-08-27*

Would not let me cancel my subscription and keeps taking my money. On Apple Store and google play does not show up in my subscriptions. When I go to manage subscription-in the app it has me log onto account and than just shows google play or Apple Store selections. Shows subscription is active on app still.

### 1/5 — Do NOT subscribe

*2024-08-07*

I subscribed to the free trial and now I can’t cancel it. I click “manage subscription” and it literally links me to the “download our app” page on my browser. Either this is a scam or your developers made a critical error.

**Developer response:** Hi, I hope you are well. We apologise that you have found your experience not as straight forward as you would have liked. I am pleased however that we managed to get this resolved for you via our support team here at MARCHON. Do always reach out with any issues in the future should you need any immediate assistance and email support@marchon.co.uk. Have a lovely rest of the week. Thanks Customer Support @MARCHON.

### 1/5 — Money Taken Despite Cancelling In Trial Period

*2024-08-02, version 2.0.21*

Cancelled 3 days before trial period ended… money STILL taken. Utter joke. I’d be very careful if thinking about doing the trial period.

### 1/5 — Too expensive

*2024-06-02, version 2.0.18*

There isn’t an app on this planet I’d pay £89 per month for. I did the trail and wouldn’t say it was even worth paying for, still got bugs and only some exercises have demos. There’s stuff in the training plans you don’t know what it is with no explanation

### 1/5 — Be wary

*2023-09-10, version 1.0.17*

1 week free turned into a 3 month contract.  And then the monthly price changed from 39
Pound to 89 pound.  

Be very careful as they just skip over any complaint

### 1/5 — Awful customer service

*2023-07-20, version 1.0.15*

Signed up during an offer period, cancelled my subscription within 7 days but continued to be billed for a subsequent 2 months.

### 1/5 — $100 a month for this?

*2023-06-24*

I signed up for a free month trial and quickly canceled up after realizing how bad and limited the app was. The customer service team is stating that my account is canceled but I’m in a “3 month commitment” and they’ve continued to charge my card. I literally canceled my account the next day so that’s not possible. 

I wouldn’t be this upset but overall, this app is a complete rip off. The workout plans aren’t straight forward and if you want to switch plans, you have to contact customer service for them to change it for you. Why can’t I change these crappy plans on my own?

 For $100 a month, you should have 15 different plans to choose from, nutritional recipes, a better UE, higher quality videos and descriptions, and the trainer’s personal cell phone number (joking but not joking). 

Save your money and pay a personal trainer at your local gym.

### 5/5 — Flexible, bien réfléchie

*2026-07-10*

Très bonne application et programmation faite par MARCHON. Je m’entraîne pour l’hyrox, ATHX et running avec des phases différentes dans l’année, je peux jongler donc avec mes programmes HYBRID, ATHX, HYROX quand je veux super agréable. Bon rapport qualité prix. Et une programmation qui me corresponds en terme de nerveux et volume

### 5/5 — The Best Fitness App Ever

*2026-07-01*

I have been using the Marchon app since 2021, and during this time it has only got better and better. The quality off this app is of the highest standard and the constant reiteration improves it constantly. The programming is also of the highest quality that you will find within the fitness industry

### 5/5 — Amazing app, amazing programming

*2026-06-19, version 3.0.32*

Amazing app, I’ve tried every app going and this is by far the best. My one wish would be more 45 programs. Perform/hyrox 45. Normal program session are great but can be 90-120mins per session in an empty comercial gym.

### 5/5 — AWESOME!!

*2026-05-06, version 3.0.27*

Easily the best training app ive ever used, never mind the range and quality of training plans

### 5/5 — Training app

*2026-04-24, version 3.0.26*

The Marchon training app has taken my training to another level 💪🏻 HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

### 5/5 — Brilliant PT

*2026-04-24, version 3.0.25*

Personally think the best online mass participant app out there!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-04-06*

As a former athlete who’s had a hard time finding a program that hits like it used, thankful for an algorithm and instgram adds!

### 5/5 — Hyrox Pro

*2026-03-31, version 3.0.23*

Great programme - taking my fitness to new levels

### 5/5 — Insanely good programming

*2026-02-22, version 3.0.16*

Great programming and nutrition tracking. Love how you can swap out the exercises depending on available kit and how you feel. I feel ripped

### 5/5 — Exceptional!

*2025-12-21*

Honestly can’t fault this app. The fluidity of the the app along with the variety and quality of the workouts. I’ve been training for 10+ years now and this is the best training app I’ve used by a mile!
