### 5/5 — Such variety

*2025-01-19, version 2.3.15*

Really love this app. Been a member for a few years now. So many classes of varying length and difficulty. Instructors are knowledgeable and engaging.

### 5/5 — Non-negotiable

*2025-01-08, version 2.3.15*

SSOD is my favorite workout platform/format.  I’ve been involved in law enforcement for 20 years & done a lot of training.  I’ve ran 3 half marathons, a number of 5k’s, done “INSANITY,” & group fitness classes (including spinning) at various gyms.  SSOD is awesome.  If you can tell by my log-in’s, I’m on it about every day.  Thank you Cat, Brian, AJ, Mere, Rebecca, Fred & the rest!

### 5/5 — Love it.

*2025-01-03, version 2.3.15*

If you prefer to work out at home, this is a terrific option! I have been using Studio Sweat on demand since the start of the pandemic. It’s very affordable, and since I have owned a my own spin bike for a long time, joining Studio Sweat on demand was a perfect addition for me. I love the variety of classes – and  not just cycling classes – but strength classes, yoga classes, etc. I definitely recommend.

### 5/5 — Excellent workouts

*2024-09-13, version 2.3.14*

Excellent workouts at every level imaginable! Loved the cycling and arm weights workouts.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App and Trainers

*2024-09-09, version 2.3.14*

Love all the trainers on this app and the variation of classes we have access to. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — 7 years with SSOD

*2024-07-17, version 2.3.14*

I’ve been a member with SSOD since 2017 and have seen them grow into the great company they are today! I participate in all their extra programs, it mixes things up so I’m never bored with my workout routine. I just love SSOD and feel like I know all the trainers!

### 5/5 — Incredibly Versatile!

*2024-07-06*

I used multiple different fitness apps before I landed in this one and I’ve been using it the longest and don’t see any reason to switch. The variety is amazing, the teachers make you feel like you’re in the gym with them and you can select any level of workout you want.  Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Motivating and fun

*2024-06-03, version 2.3.14*

My gym has spin bikes but no class so that is where Studio Sweat comes in.  It is a great alternative, in fact, it feels like I am in a class.  Also there is a lot of choice not only for spin classes but also for strength, flexibility and yoga, etc.    The app works pretty well; it has a couple glitches once in awhile but the variety of classes make up for this so I gave it a 5 star review!

### 3/5 — Good spin classes

*2024-04-15*

I like the spin classes they make cardio go quicker. Trainers are kinda triggering and the music is normally really bad. If you make a comment that’s anything other than overwhelming positive support they just won’t post it. The instructors know how to put together a good cardio session but feels like they don’t have a really good understanding of health and fitness and just say things that other people say. Also the slow counting by a few of them really raises my blood pressure we don’t need to be tricked into doing more time I’m doing this workout for a reason.

### 5/5 — Convenient

*2024-03-26, version 2.3.13*

I have been using Studio Sweat for years and love it so much. It has really brought my fitness level up. I mostly do spin, sculpt, yoga and Pilates. There are great workouts for travel also, so I’m on 3-5 days per week and pick a workout based on how much time I have and how hard I feel like working.

### 5/5 — Life changing

*2024-03-24, version 2.3.13*

I’ve been a member since 2016, when I cancelled my in person gym membership to save money and so that I wouldn’t have to leave my newborn in order to exercise. I have never before been so consistent in my workouts. The accessibility and approachability of this gym, not to mention the quality of the trainers, is unbeatable.

### 5/5 — Awesome Trainers

*2024-03-23, version 2.3.13*

Great workouts! Great trainers! Something for everyone

### 5/5 — So glad to have found SSOD!

*2024-03-04, version 2.3.13*

I quit my gym because of the revised schedule no longer fit my schedule. After buying a bike I searched for videos and came across SSOD. It’s one big fitness center online! I sync it to the big screen and go! Everything is here! And it’s reasonably priced!

### 5/5 — Great online subscription

*2024-02-05, version 2.3.12*

I’ve been using Studio Sweat for nearly two years and I love it. It’s amazing value for money and there’s loads of variety of classes not just spinning. Trainers are great and really motivating. Highly highly recommend!

### 5/5 — The BEST

*2024-01-23, version 2.3.12*

I have been a member of Studio Sweat Online for 4+ years and I have loved it! I love all of the instructors and the variety of classes! Great spin classes, great sculpt workouts and great spin & sculpt. Thanks, Cat Kom and Team! Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Best workout app … pedals down!

*2024-01-01, version 2.3.12*

I have been using Studio Sweat on demand for years and I love it as much now as I did when I first started. The instructors are amazing, the workouts are tough, and I honestly don’t know how I would have made it through the pandemic without SSOD!

### 5/5 — Great app giving access to awesome classes!

*2023-12-19, version 2.3.11*

I joined SSoD just over a year ago while my gym was closed owing to Covid. It opened my eyes to just how good an online fitness solution can be! SSoD has a fantastic range of classes, from spin, to weights to yoga, to Pilates - I could go on (and on)... The trainers are top notch - they give great instruction with personality, humour and humanity to boot. And there are classes to suit every level of fitness - from beginner to super fit! Go get it...

### 5/5 — Ssod

*2023-10-25, version 2.3.11*

I love all parts of Studio Sweat on Demand!!! The trainers. The options. The intensity.  The live workouts.  The Facebook group.  Try it. You’ll love it too.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — New ownership has destroyed the vibe

*2025-04-25, version 3.2*

As a loyal longtime member of SSoD, the direction the new owners have taken with my beloved online fitness community has taken a dark turn.  No longer is the platform all about inclusion and health. I loved that the trainers seemed like friends and even from afar, SSoD felt like my local gym that welcomed and encouraged all ages, shapes and sizes.  The new regime has inserted cheesy weight loss ads, expensive add-on programs, and the online community has been reduced to a platform for airing grievances and low class attacks.  Such a disappointment and a true loss to the online fitness community.

### 1/5 — Took my money

*2024-04-30, version 2.3.14*

I bought a download class. I can’t watch is since I did not renew my yearly subscription.

### 1/5 — Terrible customer service

*2023-04-24*

Great app but poor customer service. Due to an injury I need to cancel my subscription. However, the only way to cancel is through email.  But even after I requested a cancellation several times through email I kept getting charged. I finally had to file a claim with my bank. 

It wasn't so much the amount… it was the principle. Why not make it easier to cancel AND honor your word and not keep charging after the request?  

I was Totally frustrated with template responses by a company that seems like they care more about the dollars they get per month from subscriptions than a satisfied customer. Therefore i will never return to this company after my rehab. You’ve been warned… beware. I wish I could give 0 stars.

### 1/5 — Won’t let me create an account

*2021-10-27, version 1.9.5*

Keeps saying error, haven’t been able to make an account to use the app. No customer support. Waste of time

### 1/5 — Akin to a local Rec Centre

*2021-02-11, version 1.7.9*

If you’re missing your regular classes at your local Rec Centre then this app is for you!
My motivation first waned when I found that they only use covered music and not originals plus the instructors calling out encouragement to the class participants who you don’t know or can’t see! 
The final turn off was instructors breaking into song along with the music which is uncomfortably awkward to say the least. 
I was looking for exciting high intensity spin classes but found sub par local rec classes on this app. 
Definitely overpriced - don’t be rushed into committing after the trial period ends

### 1/5 — Free trial???

*2020-08-12, version 1.6.5*

I am perplexed that you offer free trial when there does not seem to be any free trial videos available.  Disappointed

### 1/5 — Very slow

*2019-10-03, version 1.4.3*

I’ve had issues every time I use this app. It’s slow and buffers every few seconds.

### 1/5 — Not Good

*2019-04-27, version 1.0.46*

I was dismayed that when I signed up for the “free trial” one of the downloadable videos had an “error” message and others linked to a one-minute video of the instructors talking about the workout instead of linking to the actual workout. When I chose the “contact us” tab to share my concerns, my email received a “mailer daemon” notice that my email was undeliverable. Quite concerning since I was prepared to pay a monthly fee for the app if I liked it. Unfortunately, I will be uninstalling this app!

### 1/5 — Buyer Beware

*2018-04-25, version 1.0.19*

Really starting to think Studio Sweat is a sham. Was on the free trial, worked fine. Paid for my subscription for a year,and now nothing works. The app doesn’t work on the phone. The roku app doesn’t work. Now not even the webpage is working. Tried to call the company, they haven’t responded yet. Emailed customer support, they responded a day later and  said the problem was on my end, which it isn’t. No one helps, left alone here, paying for a service that isn’t working.

### 1/5 — Only accepts US payment

*2017-01-04, version 1.0.2*

And you can't even download the free trial classes without a payment method yet the app is available on the Canada app store. Tell me how that makes sense. I was really excited to try this app, it was exactly what I was looking for :(

### 5/5 — Love it.

*2026-08-06*

If you prefer to work out at home, this is a terrific option! I have been using Studio Sweat on demand since the start of the pandemic. It’s very affordable, and since I have owned a my own spin bike for a long time, joining Studio Sweat on demand was a perfect addition for me. I love the variety of classes – and  not just cycling classes – but strength classes, yoga classes, etc. Only bummed that the price went up but I definitely still recommend.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your time in writing a review! :)

### 5/5 — The best Exercise app in the world

*2026-04-05*

I have been exercising all of my life. For 40 years, I ran 5 miles a day and went to the gym at least 3 to 4 days a week. During Covid, I joined Studio Sweat on demand so I could continue to do spinning classes. The classes are much better than the classes I was doing at the gym. The trainers are awesome and you feel like you are part of the studio, which is in San Diego. I tell everyone I know to try Studio Sweat on demand and share the wonderful experience that I have had.
Cat Kom, who is the owner of Studio Sweat, is a rock star trainer and a great human being. Visiting Studio Sweat on demand in San Diego in person is now on my bucket list. My membership in Studio Sweat on demand is one of the best investments that I have ever made.

### 5/5 — Spin

*2026-03-28, version 3.4.6*

Great instructors with a variety of classes!  I like that it’s different levels and some shorter classes if you have a busy schedule!

### 5/5 — Money well spent

*2026-02-24, version 3.4.6*

This online membership is a must for anyone looking to support and explore their fitness at home and at the gym. The instructors are inspiring, the options of classes are immense. I’ve had my membership now for about 4 years and it’s worth it through all of life’s happenings

### 5/5 — Great Workout App

*2026-02-04, version 3.4.6*

I have been using Studio Sweat for over a year and absolutely love it. Bought it mostly for spinning but am now doing the combo workouts and love them. What I like most about the approach to the app is it really does feel like you are at a workout class at a gym but in the privacy of your own home and space.

### 5/5 — Great fitness app

*2025-10-10, version 3.4*

I’ve been using studio sweat for 8 years and love it! Great variety of instructors and classes, you can always find something that you need. I mainly use the spinning classes but also like the Pilates and core specific workouts.

### 5/5 — Best virtual Spin classes

*2025-07-06, version 3.2.1*

Best thing I ever did for myself  - the team keep you motivated with their fun and genuine caring  style.  Great for cardio in the home where ……..cheating yourself is not an option with the sweat team!  Thank you Team

### 5/5 — Great app to keep you motivated and fit

*2025-05-30, version 3.2*

I bought this app for the spinning classes which are fantastic classes but found their strengthening and stretching classes are great too.  This app keeps me motivated to exercise.  The instructors are very positive making the workout an extremely enjoyable experience.

### 5/5 — Exceptional gym app

*2025-03-21, version 3.0*

This has everything from beginner classes to old pro classes

### 5/5 — 4-1/2 years later!!!

*2025-03-01, version 3.0*

I found Studio Sweat on demand in the summer of 2020 during Covid when everything was locked down. I had purchased an indoor bike and needed to find great online classes. I found a class with Mimi on YouTube and was hooked immediately. 4 1/2 years later, I have made a great group of friends from all over the world and enjoy Working out in the mornings. The trainers are fabulous and via the private Facebook group, they provide a lot of insight, instruction, and laughs to all the members. On top of all that, the library of workouts is enormous. New classes are added each week. I highly recommend Studio Sweat on demand. 💯💯💯
