Unnecessary Updates
I’ve been using the app for years however this new update has made it challenging to want to continue using the app. Some of the daily recipes don’t include all of the ingredients required, the workout programs are a mess to save, and hard to track my daily and weekly progress. It used to be easy to go to the gym and have a workout routine ready for the week (without selecting a program or challenge or the same lower and upper body days) however, now it isn’t as user friendly. The new update took away the simplicity of working out and having a guide to follow. Now it’s difficult to navigate.
The app used to have a simple & user friendly approach, it no longer has that and it has become discouraging to use.
While I recognize that change can be hard, the specific changes in the app have not been beneficial to users. It has eliminated a lot of simple features, doesn’t save your work or progress, and doesn’t allow you to have a choice in what you would like. I used to be able to go through all the meal plans and find whats best for me and now I have to select a plan or program before being able to view the actual weekly recipes and ingredients.
I hope the Sculpt You team takes into account what a lot of long term users have said about the app and make the common and requested changes. Its been unfortunate to read a lot of bad reviews after the app updates and I can relate to several of the issues that users have made.

Longtime user, hate updates
I have used the Sculpt You app for almost 6 years now. It always felt very simple to use. I always felt like I had variety with my workouts because they frequently changed every month and I actually felt challenged in my workouts. Ever since I got the update, I find myself hopping between different programs/workouts trying to create something similar to some of the old ones, and it wastes so much time. All the sections within the app are also very difficult to navigate. You have to click into a bunch of things and then exit out of a bunch in order to even look at the workout sequence.
Also, I do not understand a price increase if I’m given the same programs without any changes. Why would I pay $15 a month when there aren’t any workout changes? I liked that in the old app each month you got a different split/set to work on. Also, in the old app, I felt like the workouts were very straightforward and easy to do .Alot of these new programs need odd equipment, and locations that are not convenient when you’re at the gym or at home. Plus they pretty much eliminated the at home program. I really hope they give old subscribers the option to view the old app. At the very least make updates to make it more user-friendly interface, and bring back workouts that were challenging, and that changed monthly. I might have to cancel my long time subscription as I don’t feel like it’s worth the extra money.

Could be better
The exercises in the programmes are good it’s just that the actual app is difficult to use. It’s too busy, and it takes a while to find what you are actually looking for. I think the app needs to be organised better with clearer sections. Meal plans are ok but are a bit bland and some of the protein options aren’t available in my country

Great workouts app not saving info
I love this creator and their workouts, however I’ve become increasingly frustrated with the app not working as intended. My workouts often don’t save and are not showing up in the completed workout section. The period tracker is having the same problems. I want to love this app and continue to use it but I don’t see that happening if these issues persist. Sadly I bought a lifetime membership.

This update sucks
Please listen to your audience. This update is not it. You should be like outlook that gives you the option for the old version and new as well
Update is extremely disappointing
Extremely frustrated and disappointed with the update. I’ve been a loyal supporter for the last year, shared this app with so many friends and family and promoted its features. First, when the update happened it cleared all my saved data of workouts/weights. The new update is hit or miss whether or not it’ll save my data. Consistently says I haven’t completed a single workout despite having checked off everything in a day/shows completed under the program. At this point better to write everything down in the notes app. Second, the user navigation is horrible. I’ve used the new update for a month to give myself time to learn it and it continues to jump around/glitch and cause frustration. The prior app had its moments but not to this degree and was way more user friendly. Third, the stretches/mobility don’t make any sense. Every upper body day there’s three versions of openers that I’m unsure what purpose each one has verses the other. Seems like a lazy thing to add at the front for “mobility” when in reality there are SO many movements that will open up your upper body that are missing from the rotations. Overall I’m really disappointed and wish that companies would stop trying to reinvent the wheel and make things “better”. Listen to your fan base. Almost all the comments on Instagram talk about how everyone is so disappointed and upset. Do better.

Update ruined it
I was so in love with this app and got the lifetime membership because it was so helpful. Now that the update changed it so much I wish I hadn’t spent the money to be a lifetime member. Money is very tight right now and this updated frustrates me so much that I don’t want to use this app now!! I especially hate that it wont save my workouts or my progress with the weights I have done previously. I also dislike that I cannot replace workouts and that the videos continually play. Please change it back, the community loved it before and now I find myself looking for another app to use.

Don’t like the update
I used to love this app and the layout of it. As someone who needs to be told what to do to workout I found the daily schedule of having an entire workout laid out in front of me and not having to make decisions on what to do that day super helpful. Now I have to choose what to do that day and I do not like how they have changed the overall layout either. Not as user friendly to me. Not happy with the update and will not use unless they add back the daily workout feature:/

App Changes
took a break from the app and came back. The update significantly reduced the usability of the app. Workout variety has decreased, and the new superset structure is not practical for most gym environments.My lower‑body routine required alternating between multiple machines and non‑machine exercises located in completely different areas of the gym. This creates unnecessary disruption, makes it difficult to secure equipment, and isn’t realistic during busy hours.Additionally, the inability to preview upcoming exercises until completing the current one limits planning and reduces workout efficiency. Overall, the update feels like a step backward from the app’s previous functionality. Already looking for an alternate app.

Update sucks
App used to be amazing and now it sucks. Bring back the old format!!
Long time user now disappointed
For starters the app doesn’t save your information. You go through your workouts adding your weights and for what? It doesn’t save. So you have to guess what your weights were week to week. Which is extremely frustrating. As for the workout programs, they went down hill fast. I use to feel challenged and like I got a great workout in. Now, they kinda suck. I feel like they rushed to create them and every program feels like the exact same thing. If I say I’m working out at home or the gym, I get the same workout. If I say I’m a beginner or advanced, shocker, same workout. The equipment it says you’ll need, a lie. Still waiting to use the lat pull down it says you need in the postpartum program. The workouts she posts on her instagram are nothing like the workouts in the app (that you are paying for). If you are a first time gym user, just purchase a month, screenshot the workouts and then cancel. Because there is no benefit of having it longer than that. The workouts don’t change. If you are someone that has experience working out, go somewhere else. I promise you’ll get a better workout in elsewhere.

Updated app isn’t great
I had been using sculpt you since January and I loved it so much but the update sucks. I have been trying to get used to it for a month now and if I didn’t have the lifetime membership I would be canceling and looking for another app. It’s annoying to navigate, it’s more steps to track your workout, it takes away the joy of working out honestly. And it also seems like they prioritize the gym workouts more in the new app than the home workouts AND it’s not as beginner friendly either. It’s just all so very disappointing honestly.

Feedback from a longtime user
I’ve used Sculpt You for several years on both Android and iPhone, and I’ve watched the app grow, add features, and expand its staff. Unfortunately, some of the recent changes feel like a step backward from what originally made Sculpt You stand out.
The app itself feels clunky and less flexible than it used to be. Previously, I could easily switch between home and gym versions of a workout or adjust between beginner and intermediate levels. That flexibility mattered. Some days I’m especially sore, returning after time away, or simply need to modify my workout. Removing those options makes it harder to stay consistent.
The same is true for home and gym workouts. One of the things I valued most about Sculpt You was the encouragement to work out wherever you could. If I made it to the gym, I could use the gym version. If I couldn’t, I could still complete a comparable home workout focused on the same goals. That made the program practical and helped remove the all-or-nothing mindset that can derail consistency.
There are also basic user-interface issues that make completing a workout unnecessarily frustrating. For example, when entering a weight during a set, especially during a superset, the keyboard doesn’t close or move out of the way properly. This can force the user to back out of the superset, enter the weight, and then reopen the superset to continue. Small workflow issues like this interrupt the workout and make the app feel unintuitive rather than seamless.
I recently returned after a couple of years away and paid for a month because I hoped the original flexibility was still part of the experience. I was surprised by how different the app felt and how similar it now seems to many other fitness apps.
The challenges also appear to have changed. They’re available to start at any time and seem more like self-directed programs than true monthly community challenges. The original shared monthly format created accountability and the feeling that everyone was working toward something together. Making them available on demand may be more convenient, but it loses much of that community motivation.
I’m also concerned about how difficult it is to cancel a subscription. After searching throughout the app, I couldn’t find any way to cancel. The only option I could locate was buried in the online web version, which users are being told will soon be discontinued. If there’s another cancellation method, it isn’t clearly communicated or easy to find. Making it easy to subscribe but difficult to locate the cancellation option feels wrong and potentially deceptive to users.
I’ve genuinely loved Sculpt You in the past, so this feedback comes from wanting to see it succeed. At its current price, though, I can’t justify continuing to pay the same amount I would for other fitness apps when the features that originally made Sculpt You valuable to me are no longer available, the basic workout experience isn’t very user-friendly, and managing the subscription isn’t transparent.

The new update ended it for me
I wish there was a way to opt out or reverse this new update. Have been a user for so many years and had to cancel. So sad they had to ruin a great app.
New app
The new update is awful. I ended my subscription I’ve had for almost 4 years.
UI update is not user friendly
The last 2 months have been disappointing at worst. Underwhelming at best. I’m not going to go into specifics on the aesthetic & non functional UI, & the changes in content, but it’s disappointing to see an app pivot so hard from its meat & potatoes that it alienates customers who have supported for years. & then the audacity to not even put out a guide or FAQ after TONS of feedback (positive, negative, or otherwise) & confusion. The most disappointing part is the admins saying “sorry you feel that way”, “change is hard! 💜” & haven’t addressed any concerns en masse in a post or app notifications, they only respond to comments on their social media. & even then I learned more from my peers than the admins as they typically only leave comments in that vein.
Just deleted it, won’t be back.

too many app issues
as a longtime user of the app, pretty disappointed with the updated version. way too many glitches, not saving previously saved information, hard to navigate, and the workouts themselves aren’t nearly as good as previous years. unfortunately will probably be cancelling my subscription
Love the app but…
I love the new app and the workouts. I’ve gained a lot of strength and definitely recommend! My only complaint is that the the app is glitchy and definitely has some kinks that need to be worked out. When I try to change challenges it does not save any history or let me change it long term, it continues to go back to my previous challenge. I have to join the new challenge I want to do every day and remember where I left off the previous day/week. It’s really frustrating because I really want to do a new challenge and focus on it.
Hoping with the next update the bugs are fixed!

👎🏽
I hate the new layout! It was so much more simple before. You pick how many days a week you wanted to lift and that’s it! Especially for us who lift as a lifestyle. Now you have to pick a challenge? Doesn’t count our rest periods anymore and it doesn’t tell us how many reps? Ugh no ty
New update
Been a member for years… this new update in theory is nice but it doesn’t work. Trying to use the pregnancy program and it’s unusable due to a glitch. Reached out to customer service and was told “keep an eye out for updates” I did the most recent update and still experiencing major issues. I truly would save your money and head else where.
