### 4/5 — Select a bike should not be final

*2025-07-11, version 4.89.3*

As a new user of the SoulCycle app, I was surprised by how easy it is to accidentally lock in a bike selection. I tapped a bike thinking I could explore other options, as most fitness and booking apps allow toggling between selections without immediate commitment. However, my girlfriend informed me that the bike was already reserved—and because the class was less than 24 hours away, there would be a fee to change it.

Given how densely packed the bike selection buttons are, it’s far too easy to misclick. I strongly recommend adding a confirmation step before finalizing the reservation. A simple “Confirm Your Bike” prompt would help prevent unintended charges and improve the user experience for both new and returning users. Thanks for considering this suggestion!

### 5/5 — 1st Timer- Not the last!

*2025-04-13, version 4.87.1*

Thank you for making it so easy to get on to and into spin routine !

### 2/5 — App is subpar

*2025-01-16, version 4.80.5*

Often, the app shows that I’m browsing soul early when in fact, it’s not soul early, which means that half the time I need to book classes on my laptop rather than my phone.

### 2/5 — Such a glitchy app

*2025-01-13, version 4.80.3*

Cannot log in, cannot set up a new account. What a terrible app

### 4/5 — Can you allow the use of the older app version for those who do not have IOS 17?

*2025-01-10, version 4.51.0*

The older version worked well.

### 5/5 — Got lost in the music & found my Abs

*2025-01-10, version 4.80.3*

My favorite way to sweat! 💫💫💫

### 5/5 — 10/10 experience

I absolutely loved every class that I’ve went to and I feel amazing afterwards !

### 5/5 — Soulcycle

### 1/5 — What did you change ?!?

*2026-08-10, version 4.98.11*

Doesn’t load Mondays at 12 when booking for bikes open ….

### 1/5 — Wonky

*2026-07-22, version 4.98.7*

The other day I couldn’t check in

### 1/5 — STOP SPAMMING WITH AN AD AS SOON AS I OPEN THE APP

*2026-05-20, version 4.97.1*

There’s always an ad that pops up when I open the app. Every dang time. With a tiny close button that takes multiple taps to close. Why are you spamming your own app?!! All I want is to book classes and check in.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2025-02-15, version 4.82.0*

This is the worst app I’ve ever come across. For such a large brand it’s shocking you don’t have it more figured out. Went elsewhere to avoid the app

### 1/5 — Missing classes

*2025-02-12, version 4.82.0*

I paid for a package of 5. Reserved 2 seats in a class. Hours later the app said I had no classes reserved and that only had 3 classes left

### 1/5 — Review

*2025-01-18, version 4.80.5*

I find the app hard to use and it’s very easy to sign up and accidentally sign up for two bikes and get charged twice

### 1/5 — App is easy to make errors

*2024-12-31, version 4.80.1*

If you accidentally click an extra bike number, there should be time to undo the error without being penalized. At the very least, a 5 minute window.

### 1/5 — Highly misleading

*2024-11-17, version 4.73.4*

Making "membership" the default option highly misleading and tricks people including me to spend far more than they realize.  A class action lawsuit waiting to happen.

### 1/5 — Confusing reservation app

*2024-07-28, version 4.65.0*

The reservation is very confusing. I only want to see the available seats and accidentally hit one seat. The app wont let me change that because it after 5pm. The app require me to pay for a new class.

### 1/5 — Seat Selection.

*2024-07-10, version 4.62.0*

why is that when you pick a seat you are stuck with it!?!!? I paid $60 and was going to reserve a class that was gonna start in 40 mins and I picked my seat but then I accidentally clicked on a second seat and I can’t delete it or else it’ll cancel it and use up both of my passes. Now I’m left with one. I’m so furious right now. As a new rider, why can’t there be a button to confirm your choice after selecting a seat. Money gone now.

This is officially my newest happy place. SoulCycle is its own community. The instructor is top-tier and the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. They don’t make you feel like a bother if you don’t know how to adjust your bike, etc.. I’m extremely grateful to be a part of this.
