I haven’t tried any of the other locations but I plan to do that in the future. Erica has set me up on a program plan and I’m looking forward to it. Thanks so much for all your help Erica. ### 5/5 — Nice Tracker *2025-07-21* The app is great to track, challenge and compare my progress to others.

Unable to transfer my membership barcode to my Apple Wallet. Error message bar code not added please try again. Please fix! ### 1/5 — Truly awful calendar function *2022-03-19* As far as I can tell - and I’ve asked staff for help - there is no way to view a schedule by location (i.e. Gym A, warm water pool). You have to sort by instructor or activity, and there are dozens of activities and instructors. Because of this, there is effectively no way to know in advance whether you’ll be able to use the gym or pool. I love the Y, but this missing functionality makes it much worse to be able to use. The previous app by a different developer was much better. ### 2/5 — Difficult to search for exercises *2026-01-14* The app seems fine until you try to search for exercises to add to your workout. The search doesn’t narrow down the list and when you type it keeps backing up and erasing what you type. Very frustrating to use! ### 3/5 — Why Not? *2025-05-29* If you’re visiting this store page, you have no reason not to install this. ### 3/5 — Where are privacy settings? *2021-11-06, version 1.1* Where are privacy settings? ### 4/5 — Good programs *2026-03-29, version 1.7* They have many program I like. ### 4/5 — **** *2024-01-02, version 1.3* Very user oriented...provides helful user support... ### 4/5 — Y app helps me push myself… Accountability *2023-06-07* I love to see my progress as well as others at my gym… ### 4/5 — Helpful *2023-06-02* Still really hard to see when the basketball courts are open and not being overtaken by pickle Ballers but otherwise the app is great especially for looking at available classes ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great way to keep up with class schedules *2026-06-03, version 1.7* Love it. ### 5/5 — YMCA CLASS SCHEDULE *2026-06-01* great can see all classes for that day in one spot. easy to use to see what classes you want to check out for the week. 😍 the app ### 5/5 — Great place to be ! *2026-03-03* My home Y is Whitaker great place to get healthy meet new friends, great friendly staff, always nice and clean, a lot of workout equipment. ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2026-01-10* The app is very easy to navigate to see what classes and areas are available for the day! ### 5/5 — Helpful *2025-12-26* the app is great especially for looking at available classes and instructors! ### 5/5 — Helpful *2025-11-07* the app is great especially for looking at available classes and instructors! ### 5/5 — YMCA of Central Kentucky *2025-10-31, version 1.6* Enjoying this place so much ### 5/5 — Love the YMCA *2025-09-15, version 1.6* I love I can do different classes everyday and love them all! ### 5/5 — Great time saver *2025-09-01* I work out often at the YMCA.
