I love this app. It is so user friendly and the workouts are great. There’s such a huge variety. Also the people behind the app (Mike) are awesome! I emailed him with a problem I was having and he went above and beyond to help me. 10/10 recommend this app & the workouts.

*2020-12-15, version 6.020.1*

Great variety of workouts— many styles, many different degrees of difficulty. Mike Donavanik is very responsive and enthusiastic. Very pleased!

### 5/5 — My absolute favorite way to workout!

*2020-10-21, version 5.902.1*

I discovered Mike Donavanik’s YouTube videos several years ago, and right away I adored his personable demeanor and humor while delivering killer workouts. When I found out that he had created a video workout app I was extremely excited and my expectations were completely blown out of the water. The Swear Factor app works very well on my phone and laptop, with many search parameters to help me find whatever type of workout I’m feeling that day. My favorite part of Sweat Factor is definitely the brilliant roster of coaches (including Mike himself!) and a wide variety of excellent workouts for all levels. If you’re looking for a great workout and a great time, I’d strongly suggest checking out Sweat Factor!

### 5/5 — Obsessed

*2020-10-15, version 5.902.1*

I hate gyms. Been working out at home for years, along with running. DVDs have gone the way of the dinosaur... Workout apps are where it’s at! Sweat Factor is totally worth the money. There are so many awesome trainers and tons of variety of workouts, whether you’re looking for HIIT, weights, cardio, circuit training, Pilates, arms, legs, 30 minutes, 45 minutes etc. If you’re looking for a great way to get in or stay in shape at home, download this app!!! You won’t regret it.

### 5/5 — Great workout app for any fitness level

*2020-09-25, version 5.902.1*

I started Sweat Factory because I am a busy professional and wanted a full body workout within my time constraints of 30-45 minutes.  The trainers are amazing helpful and exciting to workout to.  Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

### 5/5 — Nothing better

*2020-09-07, version 5.902.1*

An amazing app with amazing variety and amazing trainers! You start to feel like you know all the trainers since you work out w them everyday. I’m always excited to see what new content is added every week. And you can’t beat the price!

### 5/5 — Amazing Workout App!!

*2020-09-03, version 5.902.1*

The trainers on this app are amazing.  They are professionals and the workouts are extremely efficient! The library is varied and vast and new workouts are added regularly. There is a schedule to follow each week if you choose to follow it and workouts range from 5 min to 60+ minutes. Give it a try for sure and you won’t regret it.  The monthly fee is minimal and the results are assured if you do the work

### 5/5 — Best workout app

*2020-09-02, version 5.902.1*

Variety of workouts and instructors to keep you motivated and challenged. Mike D.’s classes are worth the app alone!

### 5/5 — I love this app!

*2020-08-27*

It’s what you need when you want to sweat and have fun!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2020-08-09, version 5.801.1*

I joined because of Anja, but I’ve discovered more trainers that I would love to see more workouts from, like Vinnie and Sam. This app offers so much variety that I’m never bored. In the beginning, I followed along with their weekly schedule, but more recently, I’ve begun to plan out my own workouts since there’s so many videos that I’ve come to love and don’t mind repeating. Pricing is reasonable given the quality and quantity it offers.

### 5/5 — Love Sweat Factor

*2020-07-02, version 5.701.1*

I love the energy, variety and challenge of these workouts. I’ve been following the weekly classes for over a year. The instructors are motivating and provide clear instructions.

### 5/5 — The best workout app ever.

*2020-05-12, version 5.610.1*

If you’re self motivated to get a great workout for at least 20 minutes a day or pretty much as long as you want, all you need is this app and some dumbbells and maybe other minor equipment if you’re interested . You don’t to ever go anywhere else again. I’m so happy with the level of quality/quantity and variety of these workouts and number of trainers. Never ever be bored again and believe me, you’ll get the best workouts of your life without having to leave your house or pay expensive gym or studio memberships. Extremely efficient!!! And I’ve done it all so I’m always looking for better. I work out every day because I’m nuts and I like it hard. This gives me every choice imaginable. Love love love. Thank you Mike  D! You rock. Love and really appreciate people like you!!! You inspire me. Thank you

### 5/5 — Best Exercise App

*2020-05-02, version 5.610.1*

Sweat Factor is the best exercise app! It offers variety and it challenges and pushes me in every workout.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Beware

*2020-04-24, version 5.301*

I received an offer to try the app out for a 30 day free trial.  The app was ok, I didn’t feel that there was much variety as far as impact, just different versions of HIT workouts.  The company makes it close to impossible to cancel the subscription online.  I reached out to cancel before the 30 day period yet they still charged me.

### 2/5 — Went from great to horrible

*2025-01-22, version 7.502.1*

This App was so good but it’s become the worst. Barely has any new workouts worth anything. Maybe if you’re 80 years old this might be good for you.

### 2/5 — Used to be great, not so much anymore

*2023-08-22, version 7.502.1*

Ever since the app was sold it’s been pretty awful. There hasn’t been a new thirty minute video in months and months. Most weeks is a ten minute low impact video. The best trainers have all left. Unfortunately, I bought a year subscription, but I will definitely not be renewing. Sad, I’ve used Sweatfactor for years and it used to be so great and challenging.

### 3/5 — Why no more Mike Donavanik workouts?

*2022-10-26, version 7.502.1*

This is a workout app not sleep app. We want great, hard workouts please.  Mike is awesome!  Where has he been?  Will stay with the app a little longer to see if he comes back and if there can be some intense workouts.  I guess Chris Tye Walker is gone too.  He was awesome!cltjjj

### 4/5 — Love the variety!

*2020-04-29, version 5.610.1*

I love the variety of workouts available. I would love to see some new ones from Anja . Love her !!

### 4/5 — Music

*2020-03-03, version 5.301*

Love the trainers and workouts, but can the app be enhanced to use Spotify or Apple Music like other apps such as Daily Burn, Sweat, NTC, etc.?

### 5/5 — Perfect Workout App

*2023-05-08, version 7.502.1*

So many classes to chose from. I love the 30 minute condo format with weights and there are over a 100 workouts to choose from. Great instructors to!

### 5/5 — Great variety

*2022-07-10, version 7.502.1*

Love the range of work outs and the motivational trainers.

### 5/5 — Awesome workouts….  But

*2022-04-16, version 7.303.1*

The purpose of the app is for awesome workouts so that is why I have it 5 stars.  My only wish is that I could somehow leave comments or see which workouts I have done before!

### 5/5 — Great variety of workouts

*2022-04-13*

Have been using this app as my primary workout platform for over 12 months and am yet to get bored. Love the variety of trainers and workouts and the weekly workout schedules. I’m seeing great results!

## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2022-02-25, version 7.204.1*

The content, trainers, and set up of Sweat Factor is amazing. I have tried a lot of other online subscriptions and nothing comes close to this. So much variety and so much new content added all the time. And at such a reasonable monthly price! I truly can’t say enough good things about Mike D’s app!!!!!! Update 2 years later: STILL LOVING IT! STILL SUBSCRIBED! Keeps getting better with more content, more trainers, and so many options of kinds of workouts to choose from. Truly the absolute best out there! 🙌👍🖤

### 5/5 — Awesome Home Workouts!

*2021-12-23, version 7.204.1*

Love the variety and how there are curated daily workouts. Makes choosing a workout easy and fun everyday. These workouts are also challenging and I love the variety - from prenatal to HIIT to strength and everything in between. Definitely recommend.

### 5/5 — Industry leader

*2021-09-02, version 7.001.1*

I’ve been training with Mike D since his you tube days and I am pleased I found him. I have stayed in excellent shape and rarely miss a day. Sweat Factor is everything you need from a fitness platform, from the tough to the sensitive. Every trainer has bags of personality and not one irritates me. They all seem authentic and really help you through the dynamic workouts. My go to trainers are Mike himself and Anya Garcia. It’s a smooth app to use and it’s great to be able to make a favourite list, sort by length and also by type (meaning I can easily find content which requires no equipment when I am traveling) You can also download to you phone which is amazing.

### 5/5 — Best Workout App I’ve Found By a Landslide

*2021-08-03, version 7.001.1*

At the beginning of the pandemic I tried at least 3-5 workout apps. Some were boring, some were ineffective, one was trying to sell me more stuff and one was very confusing to navigate. I was excited when I found Sweatfactor! It is easy to navigate and has everything you need to work out at any levels. I almost immediately found my favorite trainers/workouts. People now ask me if I’ve been working out! Thank you Mike Donavanik and Chris Tye-Walker you guys are awesome! 3 lbs to go to my goal weight....

### 5/5 — Best workout streaming service

*2021-08-02, version 7.001.1*

Great selection of workouts. The only workout streaming site I subscribe to.

### 5/5 — Best at-home workout! And quarantine life-saver!

*2021-05-18, version 6.300.1*

I joined Sweat Factor a couple of years ago after stumbling onto Mike Donavanik workout videos on YouTube. I was quickly addicted to his fast-paced, high-energy workouts and self-deprecating, friendly personality but needed a more reliable way to access his workouts. 😀

After joining Sweat Factor, I found not only Mike D’s great workouts but a host of other amazing trainers! Mike D, Anja Garcia, Chris Tye-Walker, Vinnie Salemno, Jena Kirmse & Bettina Gozo are some of my faves! A former Insanity/Beach Body DVD addict, I’ve long preferred at-home workouts so already had a modest home gym space with weights. Once the pandemic hit, I was set and good to go!  With its vast selection of amazing trainers and range of workouts, Sweat Factor has literally been a lifesaver for me during quarantine!! 💪🔥👍🏋️‍♀️
