It’s great to use ### 5/5 — Easy to use! *2023-10-23, version 4.0* Love being able to see the variety of classes and options, and easy one click sign up for classes. ### 5/5 — SAY yay 4 Pickleball *2023-03-06, version 1.7* The Y is adding LOTS of pickleball sessions and it’s easy to sign up on the app ### 5/5 — Summit Area YMCA *2023-02-13* Berkeley Heights Y is great ### 5/5 — Get it! *2022-11-01, version 1.7* Very useful for app. Definitely recommend ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Broken for class bookings *2025-02-20, version 4.1* Now it just takes you to the website so there’s no point in the app anymore ### 1/5 — The WORST APP DEVELOPERS EVER! *2025-02-18, version 4.1* This app is terrible! It doesn’t display any of the class schedule at the Summit YMCA facilities. I am unable (if it does) to book any classes on it or to cancel any classes on it. So basically this app is PREVENTING me from taking classes at the YMCA. I am seriously considering canceling my membership because this terrible app has not worked in more than a month. No one seems to be fixing it because it has not changed one bit. There hasn’t been one improvement change nothing and the staff at the YMCA keep telling me “oh we’ve contacted the developer and they’re fixing it”. After more than three weeks, I begin to doubt that’s happening. Now I am slowly losing all the progress I’ve made through attending 2 to 3 classes a day at the Y ! I haven’t been attending any classes in the last week since you can no longer use the class schedule on this app. Printing paper schedules would be an improvement! Then we could use a working piece of technology like the telephone and call the people who are logged into their computers at the Y and they could book the classes for us. (Wow isn’t modern technology so efficient). It’s been several weeks. How about fixing it? ### 1/5 — Thumbs down *2019-12-07, version 1.3* Agree with Jer. Step backwards. I won’t even download it. Why do you need to enter an email and create a user id and password? In this day and age developers just want more data for no reason. Worse part is by starting to download new app it seems like my old app doesn’t work anymore. Back to needing an actual card to get in. Bogus. ### 1/5 — This is what a $120 month membership buys? *2019-01-05, version 1.0* This app just opens the website. If I wanted to visit the YMCA website I’d use Chrome. This is a poor excuse for app that is supposed to replace MindBody. Can you guys ask for your money back? ### 1/5 — Old app was better *2019-01-04, version 1.0* The old app had better functionality to view the class/pool/gym schedule. Additionally, the touted class signup (to replace Mind-Body) is not mobile friendly. Sadly, this is overall a step backwards in user experience for a few bells and whistles of challenges, workout tracking, etc. My assumption is that voice of the customer and user acceptance testing were not done, because the result could not be a degradation in functionality if these were completed. ### 1/5 — Old app had much better schedule functionality *2019-01-02, version 1.0* Disappointed that it is impossible to show the schedule of lap swims for any particular day, without mixing them with all available pool classes. Also, “print schedule” link is broken and returns error message: “dfcrowd Error: [503] Simultaneous API calls from a single IP are not allowed” ### 2/5 — Can’t Reserve a Class? *2022-10-06, version 1.4* The app doesn’t seem to work on iOS. When I drill down to the location class and time, a “reserve now” button does not appear? If I use the Web interface on my laptop, it does appear and I can book the class. ### 2/5 — Clunky *2020-10-17, version 1.4* This app needs a revamp. The visual is outdated, not very user friendly and the system for booking classes and activities is far from ideal. ### 4/5 — Fah chong Thong *2025-07-22, version 4.1* Good ### 4/5 — Great basic app *2025-07-22, version 4.1* Let’s you do the most important things with no friction. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Helpful!! User Friendly *2026-05-16, version 4.4* Great information, easy to understand and to book, good information and very user friendly ### 5/5 — Love the app! *2026-04-12, version 4.4* It is so easy to sign up for a class ### 5/5 — Summit *2026-01-31, version 4.4* Very polite staff ### 5/5 — The Say *2025-12-29, version 4.4* Excellent ### 5/5 — Easy *2025-12-11, version 4.3* It’s great to be able to easily filter and book classes as well as stay up to date of any schedule changes and updates. ### 5/5 — Well done app *2025-09-19, version 4.2* This app is very well done ### 5/5 — Finally! *2025-04-10, version 4.1* It certainly took a while to get this up and running but seems like all is working now. ### 5/5 — Summit Area YMCA *2025-04-04, version 4.1* Berkeley Heights Y is great ### 5/5 — Love the app! *2024-09-10, version 4.1* It is so easy to sign up for a class ### 5/5 — Easy YMCA App *2024-06-12, version 4.1* Very convenient App --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
