### 1/5 — Love Melting

*2025-12-02, version 10.1.6*

The app isn’t working so I have to bring up the website which doesn’t allow me to push it up to my tv.

### 1/5 — No trial option?!

*2025-10-21, version 10.1.6*

I’ve been using Melt method for over a decade and was hoping to find an online tool to guide me through targeted sessions. 

I’ve not seen an app that doesn’t give you a week+ trial before charging to use it. After opening the app you HAVE to create an account, then choose whether you want to pay monthly or annually. For what? A crummy app, given recent comments. I’ll never know. 

No thanks. Deleted! Back to the books.

### 1/5 — Disappointment

*2025-10-15, version 10.1.6*

When you are looking for a moment to relax and get centered there is nothing worse than the app failing to do its part. Even more frustrating is the lack of information about outages or issues and when or if they will be fixed. Communication is nonexistent. It appears the app is more focused on sales than Melt.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2025-07-24, version 10.1.5*

App doesn’t even work. Paid for a subscription, the app was “down” for weeks and the support team didn’t reply to my last email enquiring. Such a waste of money

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2025-07-04, version 10.1.5*

What am I paying for?  The program is good but if I can access it through the app what’s the point of subscribing?

### 1/5 — App not functional

*2025-07-03, version 10.1.5*

When I open the app I get a black screen. Restarted device, deleted and reinstalled app. Still black screen. Very frustrating.

### 2/5 — App ruins it

*2025-06-28, version 10.1.5*

As others have said, I love the melt method content, but the app ruins the experience.  It’s glitchy and unreliable.  I just got back from a trip and wanted to use melt to unwind the travel stiffnesses, but all I get is a black screen.  This is ridiculous for an app that is $14/month.  Melt is the most expensive fitness app I subscribe to and the most frustrating to use.

### 1/5 — I just get a black screen

*2025-06-27, version 10.1.5*

I just upgraded the app and now all I  have is  a black screen. I tried removing and redownloading the app w the same result. What’s going on??

### 1/5 — Not ADA compliant/friendly at all.

*2025-05-26, version 10.1.4*

5/2025 : came back to see if there was hope for this app. Sadly, looks like there is not. Melt Method is so important. Wish this app would happen. ** the following was my review from over a year ago. “I can’t remember what the web and app ' standards are called, but I’m pretty sure this app is not compliant. Even if it “technically” is, it’s so disappointing. If you are hearing/sight impaired or have an intellectual disability, you are basically excluded from using this. Pretty awful for something healthcare related. The player needs a 15 second rewind and 30 second forward feature and the player needs to offer the user the ability to speed up or slowdown the video. I had no idea that a player without these features even existed any longer. My podiatrist, physio, and OT all recommended MELT because it is awesome. I’ve been paying for over a year and rarely use it because it’s too frustrating to try and go back and hear what was said. The instructors speak really fast.

### 1/5 — 2nd review

*2024-08-28*

I’ve had this APP for over two years. I love the MELT Method and am a loyal MELTER. I am so disappointed-this APP is almost in usable. I have been contacting Customer Service for 2 years in an attempt to help them make the app better by reporting the issues. I am told that I need to access MELT through my Chrome Browser.  Of course when I do this, the site thinks I am a new customer and 2 ads pop up making it very difficult to actually log in. All around the experience is frustrating and disappointing.

**Developer response:** Please check again as we have made many improvements to our initial launch on the new platform including search! Feel free to contact help@meltmethod.com if you have additional issues.
