### 5/5 — Clare Casey

*2025-04-11, version 1.2*

Senior strength and cardio classes are wonderful. Cindy, Selina and  Julie make the classes fun and challenging. I enjoy getting to the Y early and either riding the bike or using the treadmill. EVERY one is helpful. Nice clean facilities and well run.

### 5/5 — A handy, user-friendly app

*2025-03-23*

I find it easy to use, helpful for scheduling classes and keeping track of workouts. Also, it has workouts you can follow to do on your own at home. It supports working out regularly.

### 5/5 — Interface and experience is superior

*2025-03-09*

I’ve been using for 3 weeks and by far blown away by the reliability and ease of the system. Love the class schedules can easily be looked upon and booked.

### 5/5 — User friendly app

*2025-02-04*

The YMCA App is very user friendly and helpful for booking classes, giving specific location updates, and showing you all you need to know.

### 5/5 — Zumba

Easy to use, easy to book classes on

### 5/5 — Easy to use!

*2024-09-24*

The app is easy to use and I like how it lists all the classes on one page, or you can scroll through by the desired day.

### 5/5 — Easy to navigate

*2024-06-23*

I’ve been able to find my way around easily and find the information that I needed

### 5/5 — YMCA app helpful

*2024-05-27*

I like to use the app to find classes. You can see all the classes offered each day and book them on the app. I keep the app on my first page on my phone so it is quick and easy. No more googling the Y and looking for the correct page to search for classes.

### 5/5 — Easy and Straightforward

*2024-05-17*

I love this app! It’s so easy and straightforward to use. I love the ability to view and book classes, see open swim/climb times, and get notifications about what’s happening at my local Y.

### 5/5 — Great fitness tool!

### 1/5 — Awful app

*2023-04-20, version 1.0*

The app is clunky and not user friendly at all. I can only take one class a week. Everytime I go to sign up for the class takes 10 minutes just to sign in because I don’t log in often. I have to renter my bar code. Eventually I get in and have set my location as wheeler every week to only have to go through the whole process of choosing a location every week for one class or I can make a call to get signed up. How convenient is that? It isn’t, when I used to be able to arrive at the Y and walk into class. Another poorly implemented plan rolled out by the Y.

### 3/5 — Hale Y Class scheduling

*2025-12-08, version 1.2*

Easy to sign up; need to be able to cancel closer to class time if unwell- without penalty.  Thank you.

### 4/5 — Review

*2025-12-29*

I have been attending the Wheeler YMCA since 9/24. The staff are all amazingly helpful whether computer issues or class information, signing up for classes, etc.

I primarily take classes and the instructors are top notch. I get a good workout that fits my age and condition. 

The pool is clean and they make certain that the lifeguards are attentive. 

I tell everyone I know about this facility, how much I’m getting out of the exercise. And socially, it’s been great for me. I retired 5/24 and I need the people interaction. The YMCA meets all of my needs!

### 4/5 — Good but a small fix needed

*2025-06-30*

The app seems great but there’s a bug where every time I finish an exercise it pauses the music I’m listening to. I’m guessing because it plays a little video thumbnail as an example of how to do the exercise. It’s a really groove killer.

### 4/5 — Useful (but I haven’t done much with it)

*2025-02-11*

I use this app almost exclusively to browse and book classes. This feature in particular helps keep me motivated to show up and participate. I have some hesitation in awarding full stars because I haven’t seen posted when classes open up to book. … I may be missing something that is apparent to others, but I’ve settled on making reservations a day in advance and that’s reliable. 

As for everything else, I don’t know. The workout feature could be awesome- and is probably more important to some users. I just have very little context for evaluation because I don’t use it.

### 4/5 — Easy to book- when it’s working :)
