### 5/5 — Works great for me!

*2026-04-28, version 31.6.1*

I just love Trainwell so much. So nice to have the interaction with my trainer who sets the workouts for me specifically. I love being able to go at my own pace in my own home. Love the flexibility.

### 4/5 — Dark theme please!

*2026-04-10, version 31.5.1*

Such a great approach to training. UI is easy to navigate and demos are easy to follow. Please create a dark theme!

### 5/5 — The perfect app for non-athletes!

*2026-03-30, version 31.4.3*

If you’ve never had a good relationship with the gym, you need this app. The trainer they match you with takes your whole life into account - injuries, mobility, equipment, professional life, emotions, all of it. They build plans that respect you as you are and make you love moving your body. No other workout app competes here. I’m average build and because of this app and my trainer, I’ve never felt happier and stronger. It’s worth every dollar.

### 5/5 — Trainer very responsive to feedback

*2026-03-30, version 31.4.3*

I have used app for over a year with same trainer.  I give feedback about every other week.  Trainer ups my regimen so I can improve my core for good balance.

### 5/5 — Motivated

*2026-03-25, version 31.4.3*

I am so happy I found this program. I struggled with motivation and the accountability has been awesome. I also love that my workouts are tailor-made and there’s no guessing. I just get up, do my workout, And get on with my day. My trainer is pretty awesome too!

### 5/5 — Love this app and the trainers

*2026-03-25, version 31.4.3*

Just what’s needed for someone who doesn’t want to go to the gym and be motivated to workout at home.
Update - now I go to the gym thanks to this app, and it is SO good for keeping things fresh and structured there 
And gave me confidence to go and feel like I know where to start with the machines.

Pros
- Tailored, real time adjusted workouts which use minimal/no equipment whenever you feel like. 
- Accountability 
- Motivation 
- progress tracking
- reduces friction to doing an effective short daily workout
- can get feedback on form from coach by sending videos :)
- very good coaches- might need to try a few until you get the right fit for your needs but it’s super easy to change :)

Cons (minor but would make the app a lot better!) 
- more mobility/ calisthenic type / functional movement exercises would be really appreciated.


- it would be great if the tips about each exercise could be read out loud when you start each exercise, especially for the first time. It’s clunky to stop and press the button and read whilst trying to work out what to do with your body.

The price point is quite high, therefore it’s my hope that the coaches are also given that status of importance - that it is this personalised aspect which is so valuable.

### 5/5 — Best Program Out There

*2026-03-16, version 31.4.3*

Hands Down. What’s not perfect in this program? From expertise guidance to sweet customer service and outstanding overall program.

### 5/5 — Been using Trainwell for 2 yrs now!

*2026-02-20, version 31.4.2*

I tried so many times over the years to get consistent with working out, but I never kept up the motivation doing it alone. Trainwell has totally changed my life. Having a personal trainer checking in with me has made the biggest difference! I love that she customizes my workouts for me in pregnancy and postpartum as well, helping me to feel my best and find a manageable pace in all season of life.

### 5/5 — Finally Found Consistency with Trainwell

*2026-02-07*

After being sedentary for years and struggling with consistency, Trainwell was truly the key for me. I’ve been using the app for almost two years, and it’s the most consistent I’ve ever been with working out.

My trainer is the BEST — such a cheerleader and always supportive. I love that Trainwell meets you where you are. Whether you prefer quick text check-ins or video calls, you decide what level of support works for you.

I originally turned to Trainwell thinking I couldn’t exercise because of arthritis and a shoulder injury, but they created routines that were perfectly challenging while still accommodating my needs. Honestly, one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself.

### 5/5 — Little pricey but worth it

*2026-02-03, version 31.4.1*

This was a little on the pricier end for me for a workout member ship, but it has been so worth it! I don’t like near a gym and it has been hard for me to be consistent at home on my own despite having equipment. My trainer Colby has been great with communicating and tailoring workouts that push me but not so much I would get hurt. And just having that person to be accountable to and to take the management part of the workout off my plate has been a game changer.

### 5/5 — A game changer!

*2026-02-02, version 31.4.0*

I have been a loyal customer for over 700 days and if you commit it’s a game changer! Personal trainer who granted is on another continent but is now a friend who really tailors my programme to my limitations & I can do it at home with whatever equipment I have which for me as a disabled person was absolutely critical and feasible even on low energy days. Yes it’s expensive but it follows me wherever I go and is my substitute for a gym plus personal trainer so it’s really value for money.

### 5/5 — Finally!

*2026-01-27, version 31.3.3*

My trainer has developed workouts based on my abilities (and pushed it too!) and has made them varied so that I don’t get bored. 
It is the only app that has kept me motivated and consistent in workouts for 2 years.  Go thankful for Trainwell!

### 5/5 — Change the way I think about exercise

*2026-01-20, version 31.3.3*

I've had trainwell for years.  I love that I don't have to think about what workout to do, my coach Jill just does it for me!  Even though I haven't consistently worked out for like a month, only a workout here and there cuz life is crazy, I just did a quick workout and stretching session that was in the extras tab.  Love it so much!!

### 5/5 — Workout buddy you didn’t know you needed!

*2026-01-18, version 31.3.3*

Been using for 5 years and can’t say enough good things. Great app, great (human) trainers and good vibes. I am staying fit because of their efforts. 💯

### 5/5 — Keeping me accountable!

*2025-11-20, version 31.3.1*

I love how trainwell is keeping me consistent. Having an actual trainer working with you makes a world of difference. Loving my results!!

### 5/5 — Exceptional!

*2025-11-15, version 31.3.1*

I absolutely adore this app and my trainer!! It keeps me consistent, it’s entirely personalized and I’ve seen visible results in the year I’ve been committed! I can’t wait to see what the future holds with continued use of this app.
I love the format of the workouts and it pushes me to try movements I avoid but also helps me discover new movements I love.
I literally cannot rave about Trainwell enough!!

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2025-11-11, version 31.3.1*

The flexibility and accountability from this app is amazing. Carissa has been fantastic and responsive to changes in goals and helping me to align my schedule.

### 5/5 — Love this App love my coach

*2025-11-08, version 31.3.1*

My coach is amazing. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Super

*2025-11-05, version 31.3.1*

Nothing has every gotten me to be consistent and organized with my workouts like this app it’s a game changer

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Charges $179 each month

*2026-01-26, version 31.3.3*

I wanted to check out the app because there were NO fees/charges listed. Review of their policies on their website, they will charge you every 3 months $537. Not having a fee listed on the app listing is DISHONEST!

### 1/5 — False Ban

*2025-11-04, version 31.3.1*

After giving them my card information and finding a Trainer, I was promptly banned the next day. I had set a profile picture, answered my trainer, and that was it. 

I was told I was banned for breaking TOS with a photo that wasn’t my profile picture, when I had never posted a single photo anywhere else. 

This is a SCAM.

### 1/5 — Terrible App!

*2025-09-23, version 31.2.1*

Opens up to a blank page with no options to choose to use it.

### 1/5 — Laid of my trainer without notice

*2025-06-05, version 31.0.3*

I had been a happy, loyal user of trainwell for over a year. My trainer was wonderful, and really helped me improve my health and fitness. I was in a routine, and had a streak in the app of nearly 500 days. Until suddenly out of nowhere my trainer was laid off without any notice to me. Just a standardized message about how I’d have to get a new trainer. 

Well, finding a healthy routine is a challenge, and finding someone who works well for you is a small miracle. Eliminating the representatives of your brand, and the connection to your customers is absolutely crazy. I know that if I went with a new trainer they’d be overworked, taking on new clients from the layed off trainers. No thanks. Fitness is about trust, and trainwell broke my trust, and lost a happy customer who was prepared to keep their service for years to come.

### 1/5 — Glitchy App Takes Over Watch

*2025-05-02, version 30.4.4*

Great app until the past week. Glitches frequently and keeps reverting back to completed exercises. Have to press buttons multiple times and it repeats instructions twice. Have to uninstall the app to keep it from taking over my Apple Watch as well, cannot exit it on the watch at all.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2025-04-27, version 30.4.2*

App won’t load and the website won’t load for nothing other than looking at the coach’s

### 1/5 — Bad billing practices

*2025-02-21, version 30.2.6*

Got the 3 month deal in November, wasn’t going to renew the 3 month deal due to plans to move. Checked my balance and it auto renewed for $300.00. Would be worth sticking with if it were not for the billing practices.

### 1/5 — Cool concept but…..

*2024-08-22, version 29.6.2*

Way over price!! 89$ a month no thank you!

### 1/5 — Great workout walkthrough…

*2024-08-14, version 29.6.1*

… but this is one of those apps where you really want to be great but you can tell they need more devs or devs that advocate for a better UX/UI. Some of the features are too prominent (referrals), not prominent enough (messaging/ confusing/require too much manual entry (referrals, progress), gimmicky (gamification) and/or flat out violate Apple’s guidelines (they send spam).

This is a really expensive subscription for what it is, I’m hoping to find my own workout plan generator and drop this service.

### 1/5 — App crashes at end of workout

*2024-07-02, version 29.3.1*

If you’re looking for a workout app that can actually record your workout, look elsewhere. I tried submitting a small glitch of app feedback at the end of my workout and the entire thing crashed and erased my workout. So going here to submit: trainer voice randomly changed throughout the workout. Also app crashes if you try to use the in app feedback mechanism.

### 5/5 — Life changing

*2026-08-10, version 31.8.2*

I’ve always felt intimidated in the gym. I wasn’t sure what to use, how hard to push, and I don’t like group classes. Working out was something I thought of as punishment. Enter my trainer Alexis, and the Trainwell program: I have lost over 100 pounds, reshaped my body, been consistent with workouts for almost 700 days, and honestly changed my life. Having a personal trainer to guide me through, while having the freedom to do it on my own time has been the best of both worlds. I will never stop using this! It’s been the perfect combination of accountability and freedom. DO IT!

### 5/5 — Celina is my fitness angel.

*2026-08-07, version 31.8.2*

A year and a half plus into my fitness journey with my trainer Celina.  She has kept me on my fitness journey-I have been fat nearly all my life.  I was never able to be disciplined enough to maintain a fitness program.  Trainwell and Celina have been the key and props to WheezyWaiter you tube for the prompt to get me on my road to fitness.  I cannot believe how strong I feel.  I am 63 years old and I could not be happier with my overall health.  Best decision I ever made, best money spent!!!!💪🏼🫶

### 5/5 — Workouts for non gym folks

*2026-06-03, version 31.7.0*

I’m not a gym guy but this app helps me to be effective for every workout.

### 5/5 — Intuitive, flexible, and genuinely personal

*2026-06-03, version 31.7.0*

Trainwell has been a great experience. The app is very intuitive and easy to use, and I really like that you get to work directly with a personal trainer who understands your goals and helps keep you on track. The pricing is also very flexible, which makes it easier to find something that fits your budget. I also appreciate that you can take breaks whenever needed without feeling locked in. Overall, it’s a convenient and motivating way to stay consistent with fitness.

### 5/5 — By Far The Best ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2026-06-02*

I can honestly say this is the best workout app I have ever used. I've tried many fitness apps over the years, and none of them come close to the level of support, personalization, and accountability this app provides.
The personal trainer feature is absolutely incredible. Having a real coach who understands my goals, adjusts my workouts, answers my questions, and checks in regularly has completely changed my fitness journey. Shoutout to Dylan!!! What truly sets this app apart is the ability to communicate with your trainer every day. Those personal touches make you feel supported, motivated, and never alone in the process.
The workouts are effective, the guidance is top-notch, and the accountability keeps me consistent. The value you receive is worth its weight in gold. I genuinely cannot say enough good things about this app and the team behind it.
I recommend it to all of my friends and anyone who is serious about improving their health and fitness. If you're looking for an app that feels like having a personal trainer in your pocket, this is it.

### 5/5 — HIGHLY RECOMMEND

*2026-05-27*

I recommend trainwell 100%. The 1on1 is unmatched, my trainer Carrie is knowledgeable, has always taken the time to listen to what I have to say. Even created workouts around a knee injury that has improved it so much I started to not have any pain anymore. It is a big price tag but it’s worth it to invest in this company and their trainers to improve your lifestyle not only with movement but overall.  Doing it naturally without a weight loss medication is worth it. My trainer even gives me recipe ideas and created a whole running plan outside of my plan with trainwell. The trainers on this app go above and beyond. I can even tell fhe company itself creates a good work life balance for their employees.

### 5/5 — Super

*2026-05-27, version 31.6.2*

Nothing has ever gotten me to be consistent and organized with my workouts like this app it’s a game changer

### 5/5 — Life changing for me!

*2026-05-23, version 31.6.2*

I seriously have nothing bad to say about this app. It’s been life changing for me!! First off, I LOVE my trainer. She’s so helpful, responsive, and encouraging. I have gone back and forth from gym to home workouts and she always adapts stuff for me! She will even make me new routines to do when I’m on vacation! Ugh

### 5/5 — AMAZING!!!

*2026-05-19, version 31.6.2*

Convenient, reliable, I have seen my body change since starting with Trainwell and I feel like I’ve been missing on something so great all these years 😭 Thank you Trainwell & thank you Nate!!!!

### 5/5 — Excellent program!

*2026-05-10, version 31.6.2*

I've been using Trainwell for almost a year and it's been excellent. Having a dedicated personal trainer design workouts for me is great, and the app features are awesome. Pair with a fitness tracker for best results!
