### 1/5 — Horrible!

*2025-01-30*

It signs you out every month or so and you have to re-enter ALL of your info.  It’s ridiculous.  Enough to make you join another club

**Developer response:** We appreciate your feedback. Logged-in users will have their session expire every 30 days, but you shouldn't need to re-enter all your information. Each member has a profile and should easily be able to log back in after logging out. Please be sure to remember your username, which can be retrieved from member services at any time.

### 1/5 — This is not a user-centered design

*2024-01-30*

UI/UX designer and front-end dev here. St. James as a gym is pretty great. Staff equipment and facility is good! But this app and the overall experience has been lackluster to say the least. Classes fail to load, schedule returns error messages, and barcode often comes up blank. Quality of life updates are sorely needed. Please have the team conduct additional usability testing and have these P1 and P0 issues addressed.

### 1/5 — Worst scheduling app ever

*2023-11-18*

Now I can’t view my schedule and I can’t change my password. I can’t get to my barcode to checkin at the gym. This app consistently crashes and/or the system is unavailable. Useless

### 1/5 — Annoying app

*2023-08-27*

Every few weeks the app forgets who I am, claims I don’t have a membership, and tells me I can’t sign up for any classes. I have to delete it, log out, reset my password, log back in , and pray that it works again (about 50% success rate). When the app is working, it makes me log in again before I can sign up for classes even if I have just logged in. Just very glitchy and I wish they would take care of these issues so I don’t have to keep calling tech support when my app/account become unlinked.

### 3/5 — Apple Watch support

*2023-07-29*

It would be way better if it supports Apple Watch as well

### 3/5 — Ok but could be better

*2023-07-08*

Overall, the app is ok to use. Scheduling classes is fairly easy, seeing schedule in the app is fine. Finding the barcode could be more intuitive; a single click for it would be nice. 

My BIGGEST issue is that I don’t think you can’t add a class to your google or apple calendar through the app. That’s a major flaw on my view! Unlike most apps (mind body, e.g.) that let you add to your calendar with one click. It’s annoying to have to book through this app then create an event in my personal calendar.

### 1/5 — I AM a UX designer and this app is the worst.

*2023-06-25*

I try signing up for classes and the registration disappears. I can’t use the bar code entry feature because it doesn’t load. And it gives zero information other than the title on what the classes actually are.

### 2/5 — Super temperamental

*2023-02-19*

Sick of this thing. It’s day 2.

### 1/5 — Worst scheduling app ever

*2023-02-07, version 1.14.4*

Now I can’t view my schedule and I can’t change my password.  I can’t get to my barcode to checkin at the gym. This app consistently crashes and/or the system is unavailable.  Useless

### 1/5 — Cannot reserve classes anymore on app

*2022-10-04*

App no longer allows you to reserve spot for classes
