You get the picture, plus, always core, with the point being strength and wellness — love all the supplemental education about perimenopause ### 5/5 — Fantastic app for women! *2026-04-07, version 0.0.28* Awesome workouts and SO much more - love the ability to listen to my own playlist while still being able to hear the workout cues, and the growing variety of programs is great. The nutrition info and recipes are awesome, and the health info from a wide variety of professionals is amazing! Well worth subscribing. Thank you Ashely and team!! ### 5/5 — Best workouts! *2026-04-06, version 0.0.28* Love this app and workout program. I love that I can edit my week and plan. That has helped me stay consistent. I also love that it includes challenges and has helped me incorporate stress relief, like yoga. This program is truly life changing! It has helped me get stronger and has relieved my hip and back pain. ### 5/5 — Get it!! 💪 *2026-04-01, version 0.0.28* Amazing workouts, nutrition info and most importantly, tips on getting through this journey they call menopause. ### 5/5 — Welp thought out training *2026-03-29, version 0.0.28* I appreciate Ashley’s program design and teaching. I have been able to strengthen my pelvic floor something i was never taught as a former athlete or after the births of my kids 24 + 26 years ago ### 5/5 — Great app! *2026-03-26, version 0.0.28* I’ve had this app since launch. I have yet to complete a workout that I didn’t like! The yoga can be challenging yet relaxing. The strength training has had me sweating. Doesn’t matter if it’s 20 or 30 minutes I feel like it’s a challenge and that’s exactly what I love! ### 5/5 — Functional strength *2026-03-21, version 0.0.28* I have done Ashley’s slam program for at least three years before I switched to menovation. Menovation feels like it targets everything I need as I’m aging and there are days I cannot walk after a workout. Thanks, Ashley. ### 5/5 — Perfect exercise companion *2026-03-20, version 0.0.28* This app allows me to tailor my workouts for the week. It is a wonderful mix of weights, barre, and Pilates. They also have great nutrition advice. ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-03-20, version 0.0.28* This app has helped me stay on track with exercise. The pace and options add variety to my weekly schedule which really motivates me to stick with it. ### 5/5 — Love Menovation! *2026-03-18, version 0.0.28* I have been a subscriber to Slam for years, now that I’m into 40’s I’m a Menovation subscriber 😆. I love the programs, I feel they are fit for my body but still challenging. The different available trainers and types of workouts are awesome too, lots of choices depending on the mood of the day. Great job on the app, always excited to see new stuff added. ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2026-03-18, version 0.0.28* Ashley is a wealth of knowledge and her new app is what every 40+ year old woman needs! The workout programs are amazing and all the extra education makes it so much more than just a workout app! ### 5/5 — Fantastic - Get Strong the right way! *2026-03-12, version 0.0.25* Ashley has been my go to workout instructor for several years now, starting with her SLAM program. She knows how to work with women’s bodies and this Menovation app is no exception. Her workouts are my favorite but I have enjoyed the other instructors as well and appreciate the variety. Well worth the investment to see your body get progressively healthier and stronger! ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2026-03-03, version 0.0.25* Loved the original SLAM program but Menovation suits my current phase of life better. As expected Ashley and team have put so much thought and research into this app. The programs are easy to follow, the instructors are wonderful and relatable and the best part is, I’m continuing to see results. I feel amazing and this program is worth every penny. ### 5/5 — Yay! *2026-03-02, version 0.0.25* I have been using SLAM for years. I am in that early perimenopause stage, and I’m so grateful for this app. Ashley keeps me going when I want to quit. I love the focus on strength and self-love. This app is fully customizable, and offers encouragement when you need rest days. I can’t wait to keep going through this program! Thank you for this beautiful resource that embraces this next stage of life! We needed this! ### 5/5 — Loving this! *2026-02-26, version 0.0.25* I love this app! It has helped me learn how to breathe properly. I am so grateful for the peri and menopause tips, workouts, and nutrition guides. This has helped me through this journey. Worth every penny! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Functional Strength Training! *2026-02-25, version 0.0.25* Love the different training programs and functional strength exercises! Helpful for anyone but especially those who need to get their core, glutes and hips in check. Totally applicable for every day life. Different challenges and guidance for nutrition, health, and overall wellness. So nice to know that I’m not the only perimenopausal woman going through these changes! Love Ashley and her relatable and funny commentary. I have not tried until this app, but I’m really enjoying the Pilates program by Dee too! Definitely worth the investment for your health! ### 5/5 — Try it! *2026-02-22, version 0.0.25* I joined Menovation the moment it became available and have been using it for many months. I LOVE the Pilates series, and honestly all the programs are just right for me (41, a little out of shape, perimenopause). I’m feeling stronger all the time and my core is tighter too. Worth a try for anyone wanting to build and preserve strength without hitting it too hard. It’s a very sustainable practice and feels so good. The only thing I’m wishing to see from the app is a more advanced yoga series. ### 5/5 — LOVE *2026-02-19, version 0.0.25* You won’t regret this app!!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I wish…. *2026-05-25, version 0.0.34* I’d love to try this app - it looks like there is a lot of good content, the price is way too high! I can’t really dig into anything because I can’t afford it. Should the price come down, I may try. ### 2/5 — Love it. *2026-01-28, version 0.0.25* Loving the app so far! Minor improvements to mirror the functionality of the SLAM app would be great. ### 3/5 — Not my favorite *2026-04-30, version 0.0.28* I wanted to love this as it’s so unique to this stage of life. However, it requires more planning than I’d like to do. Unfortunately, I let the free trial rollover to an annual membership (totally my fault). I won’t renew next year unless I see more updates. Other apps are better at being able to just press start and having a plan in place. I also don’t find the videos to be as phone friendly as some other apps. This app has promise, but it just isn’t for me right now. ### 4/5 — A great way to get strong from whatever starting point you’re at! *2026-02-01, version 0.0.25* I appreciate the upbeat and positive coaches. I am grateful for their attitude of “start where you are, listen to your body, and get stronger”. The only reason where am I four star rating is that I am not good at navigating the app yet. So it’s not super intuitive for me. But that might be a user error issue! ### 4/5 — Exactly What I Was Hoping It Would Be *2025-12-29, version 0.0.22* Absolutely love this app! There is such a nice variety of workouts and fitness experts. Also a huge fan of the recipes, several of which my husband has asked for multiple times. ### 4/5 — Impressed so far! *2025-09-15* I am early on in my journey using this app (since it’s new), having done only a handful of workouts over the past 5-7 days. First impression: this was definitely meant for me! For the first time, in a long time, I got just sweaty enough to feel like I got a “good” workout in without being so totally stiff and sore the next day that I can’t make it out of bed, let alone do another workout for at least 3 days. I was just sore enough, if you know what I mean. The variety of features included within the app, variety of instructors, variety of workout modes/equipment/styles/etc is impressive. The educational areas are incredibly helpful too as I try to navigate all the changes happening to my body. Two drawbacks: 1) I use an iPad (landscape) on a stand while working out, even if rotation mode is on, the video feature doesn’t always rotate for me, especially if I have to pause it, unless I minimize the screen and then expand it. Not a total deal-killer but annoying when you have to back up 10-20 secs of your workout to get back into the spot where you left off. It’s more of an annoyance and ‘workout groove’ killer than anything. 2) I realize this app isn’t marketed towards people that have had children however coming from one of Ashley’s Get Mom Strong, SLAM converts, I wish there was more focus on supporting the pelvic floor during the exercises. Yes I know what to do and how I should support that area, however I’m realizing that I’m not always breathing with exertion in some of these workouts and miss having the reminder not to bear down, or to breath/zip-up correctly by Ashely in the SLAM workouts. I’m sure I’ll adjust, just wish there was ‘Mom-focused’ classes built in as well. Maybe there is and I just haven’t found them yet. Overall, I’m very pleased and excited to actually get back into a consistent routine (that I can stick with!) **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review. We are so happy you are enjoying the app so far! As for the landscape mode concern -- we just launched an updated version and we have added this feature!! So make sure you update your app and enjoy the landscape feature. Thanks again for all your helpful feedback! ### 5/5 — No pressure empowerment *2026-07-14, version 0.0.34* I’ve really enjoyed using this app. From the educational information and especially the workouts which I’ve found to be easy to tailor to my abilities and needs. I appreciate how the app has helped me take all the recommendations for midlife perimenopausal changes and digest it in bite sized doses. ### 5/5 — Perfect app for over 40 women *2026-06-07, version 0.0.34* I love that you can customize the workout to your fitness level. So much great educational info in the app, as well. ### 5/5 — Keep the gains coming! *2026-05-30, version 0.0.34* I’ve been a subscriber to SLAM for 3 years. I’m going to switch because I love the build your own schedule feature and mix of programs. Great work! Can’t wait to see new features and workouts! ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-05-14, version 0.0.34* I love this for how it’s geared for 40 plus women with a focus on lifting (along with Pilates and yoga). Love the variety of lifting workouts. The app is well organized and the workouts are easy to Follow. You nailed it, Ashley!!! ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Rosanna Jackson *2026-05-13, version 0.0.33* Great app for any woman especially 40+. I used to do her other app Strong Like A Mother and loved it as well! ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-05-11, version 0.0.33* So many workout options to choose from. So much information, from recipes to managing menopause tips. ### 5/5 — Perfect for my perimenopausal self *2026-04-29, version 0.0.28* I love everything this app has from workouts to nutrition tips and recipes to the overall health tips. ### 5/5 — Feeling strong *2026-04-25, version 0.0.28* I am also a long time SLAM user (Ashley’s other program) and switched to this program now that I’m a bit older. I am 38 year old for reference, and I think it’s a great program for my changing body! I am loving the new workouts. I feel sweaty and strong and calm all at the same time. I love it! ### 5/5 — Ashley does it again! *2026-04-20, version 0.0.28* I love following her program and not having to plan what I need to do for strength! ### 5/5 — Feeling the Burn! *2026-04-09, version 0.0.28* I’ve done Ashley’s programs in the past and they are all amazing. I’ve been really enjoying an app specifically for those of us in menopause!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
