This app not only allows me to easily track all of my activity done at the Y or even outside the Y but it satiates my competitive spirit, and keeps me engaged as I watch my results, and my standing among all of the other app users out here. ### 5/5 — YMCA Frederick County *2024-05-17* The Frederick County YMCA app is generally very responsive and easy to use. I appreciate that it has the option to add the event to my calendar and reminds me that a calendar invite is not the same as a class registration. The “notices” is also helpful, particularly to inform users of unexpected closures or cancellations. ### 5/5 — Bonney girl *2024-04-15* I love this app so easy to use. Even an old senior citizen can do it. ### 5/5 — A real lifesaver *2024-04-01* I got a pacemaker a year ago and no longer can keep up with a lot of my fellow hikers and cyclists. I found Les Mills “The Trip” series for stationary bikes the perfect program for me at this time. These workouts are about 40 minutes long and really give me the opportunity fir a great aerobic workout. You feel like you’re really on a road even though it’s imaginary. They are many ‘episodes’ to choose from and it’s a lot of fun. Les Mills The Trip us a real game changer for me. So now I mix this with yoga and some strength training. Hopefully overtime, I get stronger and won’t give into despair. Even if I have to wait for a better pacemaker with better technology, with my Les Mills, I’ll be ready for it! ### 5/5 — Great App! *2024-01-31* Easy to use and to sign-up for classes! ### 5/5 — Awesome Y App *2023-11-10* I had no idea you could do this much from the YMCA app and to be honest, it’s been about seven years since I was a member and oh wow, have things changed… For the better! This app not only allows me to easily track all of my activity done at the Y or even outside the Y but it satiates my competitive spirit, and keeps me engaged as I watch my results, and my standing among all of the other app users out here. ### 5/5 — Easy to use app. *2023-10-23* I enjoy this app and use it everyday. ### 5/5 — YMCA *2023-09-27* The app is easy to use and it helps you create your exercise plan for the week. ### 5/5 — Easy to use app *2023-09-17* I like the app, it’s easy to use. ### 5/5 — Great! *2023-09-09* Just joined the Y today and was excited to be able to begin book classes and lap time (and see how full they are) right away on my phone ### 5/5 — Easy YMCA app *2023-06-08* Extremely easy and useful ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2023-05-19* Great App, easy to use and understand. ### 5/5 — Y app *2023-05-06* Nice app. Good to have everything in one place. Easy to book classes. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Glitches *2023-12-22, version 1.2* I can’t even get to the log in page. I’ve tried deleting and downloading to no avail!! Please fix this. Is it an incompatibility with iPhone? ### 1/5 — App is terrible. *2023-04-29, version 1.2* Nothing works. Very bad app. ### 2/5 — Great aquatic exercise classes— but POOR entry for folks with mobility issues *2025-03-28* The Y has a dedicated team of aquatics instructors who work in the regular pool and in the warm water pool. However, the lower door at the back parking lot used to be open until the pandemic. It was closed at that time for controlled access reasons. Since then, the back door has not been reinstated, which means that people with mobility issues have an extremely long walk from the back parking lot up to the front entry point, then once in they have a ride down the elevator and another long walk down two halls. Reopening the back door would mean that they could enter at the start of the lower hallway. This needs to be addressed. It certainly should be open for the morning hours until at least 2 o’clock because that’s when most of the people with mobility issues come! ### 2/5 — Prefer the old app *2023-02-25* Love the YMCA but this app is really annoying to navigate. I also don’t like the new swimming reservation system. We are a family of six so it requires both my husband and me to make reservations before a slot fills up. I much prefer the old app, even with it requiring two separate logins. ### 3/5 — Basic *2025-05-05* Better filtering between classes, favoriting upcoming classes, etc. It's such a pain to have to use the glitchy app and go through 20+ steps to see what classes are available and try and sign up. ### 3/5 — Ok after you figure out the quirks *2023-06-17* Some things are not stated, such as how long is the window during which classes can be reserved? ### 4/5 — Nice App *2025-11-05, version 1.6* Works great to reserve classes. Wish the ‘check in’ was tracked. ### 4/5 — Convenient *2023-12-19* To use as a card and to sign up for classes, look up offerings and get the latest on any closurews ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-03-30, version 1.8* Great for you physically and mentally ### 5/5 — A real lifesaver *2026-02-08* I got a pacemaker a year ago and no longer can keep up with a lot of my fellow hikers and cyclists.
