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 Unfortunately, some of the recent changes feel like a step backward from what originally made Sculpt You stand out.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.
