### 5/5 — The BEST online coaching software out there!

*2022-10-13, version 1.0*

The attention to detail on TKC is amazing - so thankful to have a software that seamlessly lets me program for my clients, and break down their technique - and then automatically saves and charts their PRs!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 2/5 — Needs a lot of work for class based gyms. Good for one on one personal training.

*2026-01-05, version 1.6*

This application is not intuitive. If you are new to the use of fitness applications, this will work well for you. But for any regular user, it is too basic. The application feels like a college project. Too basic and maybe that’s something some people want. But truly if you are someone who has used tracking apps or any fitness application before, this is taking several steps back. You can not customize, you are heavily restricted. 
Perhaps my gym is in the wrong for using this as this is a more accommodating application for personal training whereas we are a class based gym.

### 2/5 — Needs a lot of work

*2025-01-06, version 1.5*

3 point font size is not going to work. Messed up another lift because of the small size and no ability to make larger. Video uploads are terrible and rarely work on the first (or second) attempt.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2023-08-21, version 1.2*

Would love if it functioned as a workout tracker as well so I didn’t have to simultaneously use the Strong app, but otherwise I love the functionality.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-04, version 1.8*

Really love how this app works! It’s very simple to use!

### 5/5 — Can't coach with out it

*2026-05-20, version 1.7*

Simple. Effective. Profitable. Coaching with TurnKey Coach enables me to deliver world class service in a fraction of the time. Get it now, you won't regret it.

### 5/5 — Best app as a coach

*2025-08-14, version 1.6*

My coaching process has become so much faster and efficient with this app. The live screen recording during the video feedback is fantastic. I can pause, slow down, draw, heck I can have videos in other tabs of other athletes or YouTube videos to use as quick examples in instruction.

### 5/5 — I love this app!

*2025-07-22, version 1.6*

I have been a private strength coach for nearly 15 years. Since moving to TurnKey Coach, I am keeping clients for years rather than months. They love the video feedback from the built-in screen recorder. And I love that I can review everyone’s workouts and set up their programming easily in the first part of my day from pretty much anywhere.

### 5/5 — Rock Solid App for Coaching

*2024-03-14*

The program delivery is as good as anything else I’ve tried and then some; put it all in one with client and feedback videos, payment processor, and the ability to customize and I don’t think it has any serious competition. Pricing is competitive too, and importantly scaled with client load, so for coaches getting their feet wet with online it’s zero risk.  I personally won’t use anything else.

### 5/5 — Turnkey

*2023-12-07, version 1.3*

Solid app with great features!

### 5/5 — Best App EVER

*2023-11-03, version 1.2*

Literally endlessly impressed by TKC. As a coach and a client it literally is the #1 thing I recommend.

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Works great

*2023-07-24, version 1.2*

Better featured than TrueCoach. My only ding is that it needs a client summary block for the entire workout.

### 5/5 — Highly recommended.

*2022-11-11, version 1.1*

Very sleek and efficient for me as the coach. Clients love the simplicity. I would recommend this to any trainer for their clients.

### 5/5 — Doesn’t feel like work

*2022-10-22, version 1.0*

Solid 1.0 release with a ton of potential. Enables me to get my work down efficiently and delivery high value coaching to my clients all over the world while working on my schedule. Love it!
