### 3/5 — Cumberland market is not anymore

*2023-08-21, version 1.8.0*

Hello I have gone to Cumberland market to exercise  but there is not anymore. Please update the app!
Btw I have been yesterday in the  one near Charing gross station and I enjoyed it very much!
Just please update the app
Thanks

### 2/5 — Don’t see the point

*2021-02-27, version 1.5.16*

The sign up info required was not too much - age, gender and general level of activity - but there is very little that seemed useful except the location of nearby parks that have the equipment. There is an option to create a workout plan, but no explanation about how to use or apply any such plan. I shall delete it to save space on my phone

### 2/5 — Unnecessary data collection

*2020-03-22, version 1.5.13*

We shouldn’t be forced to enter all this personal data. I accept they want to know who is using the equipment, but this is a bad way to do it

### 1/5 — Excessive MANDATORY data collection

*2019-06-16, version 1.5.13*

Forcing users to enter full postcodes, medical conditions, gender, income etc is ridiculous and unnecessary for the use of the app. Smells like nothing but an excuse to gather and sell data. Deleting this before even registering.

### 1/5 — Confusing and borderline useless

*2025-06-01, version 1.8.1*

I want to use the bike in sat on, it’s extremely complicated to setup, requires house amounts of personal data, and still does not work.

Make the app just work for someone sat on the equipment.

### 1/5 — Ceejay

*2021-09-09, version 1.5.16*

As a data protection officer I can tell you the amount of data you are harvesting is bordering on illegal. Refused to input and deleted App.

### 1/5 — Terrible app!

*2021-07-14, version 1.5.16*

Terrible app, it was just frustrating to use. Don’t download! It needs a design overhaul. Functionality is shocking.

### 1/5 — Outdoor gyms are great, forcing us to share our private data is not

*2020-10-12*

I’ve seen more and more of the TGO outdoor gyms appearing in London, which is a great thing given how accessible and inclusive they are. However, why the companion app needs to know my ethnicity, long term health condition and household income (!!) is beyond me - I’d like to tell you that this data isn’t sold or shared but the privacy policy in the app is for lawyers only, TLDR. You can’t skip this incredibly invasive sign up, so here’s a quick heads up to save you the bother of downloading

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2020-07-02, version 1.5.13*

App requires too much personal information. Personally I lied to get past it. It tells you locations of places they have gyms which seems true, but gives you false information of what they have. When you arrive you get different equipment and more often than not it’s less than what they tell you. Photos are also of the different places.

### 1/5 — Won’t even recognise postcode to log in

*2020-06-25, version 1.5.13*

Completely unnecessary data collection doesn’t even work. I can’t create a login because it will not accept any post code and yet requires a post code to create a login

### 1/5 — Doesn’t let me add my postcode

*2020-06-22, version 1.5.13*

Pretty self explanatory. Fix it

### 1/5 — Crashes and doesn’t work at all

*2020-03-21, version 1.5.13*

Poor app...

### 1/5 — App crashes and won’t open

*2020-03-21, version 1.5.13*

As soon as you login, the app takes you to a white screen and is unresponsive.

### 1/5 — Irrelevant and unnecessary mandatory data

*2019-07-06, version 1.5.13*

Agree with the previous review that the personal data required to use this app is invasive and not necessary. App deleted

### 5/5 — Find outdoor gyms

*2022-04-30, version 1.6*

Find out what’s in your nearest one by using this app. There are plenty of outdoor gyms to find. If you click on the map icon you can zoom in and out over your location to see easily what’s around you. 

There are also links to classes and courses. On new sites you can vary the resistance.
