## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Great gym, terrible app

*2026-08-26, version 9.12.5*

I’m currently sitting inside a Planet Fitness and the app says it’s almost empty, yet every machine is occupied,  all of the smith machines are occupied, all of the benches by the free weights are occupied, and the break out room for kettle bells/trx/abs are filled. 

How is it empty? The app is great for signing in and absolutely nothing else. I’d rather have a physical card at this point.

### 1/5 — Wait what?

*2026-08-21, version 9.12.5*

Haven’t even been to gym in over 2 months , how does the app tell me I don’t have to pay till September and is now August and I get 2 charges to my bank account? They literally just withdrew 2 and a half payments out of my banking account after the fact the app said I didn’t have to make a payment till September .this is ridiculous when I’m being charged for days that I have not even been going to the gym to workout because of being busy at work. 😡 the. I’m already thinking about cancelling my account and they’res not option on the app to cancel . Yall are so wrong for this .

### 1/5 — Can’t use the app

*2026-08-21, version 9.12.5*

App won’t even go past the loading screen. I just signed up for a membership, paid, and can’t even access the app. 🙄

### 1/5 — bad service

*2026-08-20, version 9.12.5*

I have the Black Card, but I can't use it at all the gym locations—so it's useless for that.

### 1/5 — Booooooooooo

*2026-08-20, version 9.12.5*

Just spins I can’t even get into the app

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-08-19, version 9.12.5*

Has not opened tried for 4 days in a row and app will not load.

### 1/5 — Vending machines rip you off

*2026-08-18, version 9.12.5*

As a black card member, I had tried using the vending machines to buy water at 50 percent off and I have been charged regular price every time. The attendants just keep saying there is nothing they can do about it.  Is very aggregating and annoying because that’s is one of the few perks of being a black card member.   Very disappointed

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-08-16, version 9.12.5*

Pay for black card amenities but services never rendered at multiple locations. Home gym has been under renovations with black card perks closed for months. Next 2 closest locations never have anyone at front desk. Crowd meter is never accurate. Has 1 machine everyone uses and 10 machines no one will ever touch.

### 1/5 — app does not load

Great Gym and nice people

### 5/5 — Apple Watch version of app

*2026-08-26, version 9.12.5*

The app is great. Unfortunately there is no Apple Watch version, which would eliminate the need to carry around your phone.
