1. [R1] Peloton 2/5 · GB Bad software: I generally like the idea and exercises of Peloton. But software and support are done on the cheap and not functioning 1 SEARCH is rubbish - it finds you everything despite being asked to find exact things 2 No one knows where the bookmarked exercises are stored - it could not be found anywhere - not in profile not at Home Screen and there is no special button. 3 Support does not hav
2. [R10] Peloton 1/5 · GB New app is a pain: Overly complicated. Not responsive. Tricky to navigate. Once in the part of the app desired works well. Seems to be overly focused on directing user to classes.
3. [R3] Peloton 3/5 · GB Can’t connect Apple phone or watch to tread: The title says it all. Bike + is easy to connect. Tread doesn’t connect to phone and class doesn’t link from app to the tread. A waste of money
4. [R6] Peloton 3/5 · GB Peloton Watch App: Peloton Apple Watch app sucks. Half the time it doesn’t register a workout is ongoing on my device or app. Entire workouts spent trying to connect the Apple Watch app to my workout to track heart rate and calories burnt. Completely useless.
5. [R7] Peloton 1/5 · GB Love the peloton platform but integration to Apple Watches is appalling: Can’t connect, connect but can’t read heart rate, constantly trying to connect when I’m not taking a class, failing to disconnect. It’s almost like peloton are trying to sabotage apple
6. [R12] Peloton 3/5 · GB Let down by Outdoor Running feature.: I really enjoy the Peloton and I use it with the bike, and with the iPad and Apple Watch for Yoga, strength and meditation classes. With these it works very well with the watch, however the outdoor running is very disappointing. To use Peloton you must have your phone, starting a run you’ve then go 3 seconds to securely store the phone and you then have to
7. [R4] Peloton 2/5 · GB No accessbility sync: The app does all you would expect, nothing extra but crucially doesn’t support larger text and accessibility options in iPhone settings. How very inclusive of you Peloton. Not.
8. [R18] Peloton 3/5 · GB Hectic performance: I used to love this app with the option to Airplay to my big screen tv as the TV app would not do the measurements. Since the new IOS was introduced, it does not work properly. Most classes don't sync, just stay at the intro part on the phone, hence not tracking measurements. Often need to re-start the workout. Does not track number of workouts real time. Dissapointing. I delet
9. [R29] Peloton 1/5 · GB Stopped syncing with TV: App stopped syncing with appleTV. Tried various ways but couldn’t fix the problem
10. [R15] Peloton 3/5 · GB Great app… but: Great app for workouts especially if you don’t have a bike or treadmill however don’t get too excited about the ability to like the songs as for some odd reason you need a bike and a £25 subscription to enable the music sync to Spotify. This is a bug I’m told but they don’t seem to be interested in fixing it. Shame!
11. [R16] Peloton 1/5 · GB Dark mode only - why???: I use the app only really to choose my workouts for my Peloton equipment and check stats, I don’t tend to use it to stream the workouts themselves, so this review is simply for the app and not peloton as a whole. And what the hell has happened to it???? Last week my membership went up £6 a month (£72 a year for what I can only see is the same content that I currently use)
12. [R24] Peloton 3/5 · GB Just lacking a few features for the price: It’s one of the dearer apps I’ve used but I do like the workout plans and classes. However it’s a bit frustrating that when you choice a workout plan or program you can’t add it to your schedule so you can organise your workouts. Tbh for the price it should do this for you as I know that others apps do
13. [R27] Peloton 1/5 · GB Scam: Will not let you cancel your membership if you get a new phone as you need to use the same device you used to start it scam!!
14. [R21] Peloton 3/5 · GB Good app but doesn’t record distance correctly using reebok 100z treadmill: I love my peloton bike and the guide and this app would get 5 stars if only it would record the distance I run on my ftms enabled Bluetooth treadmill correctly. It is out by a factor of 10 every time eg if I run 1.5miles the app records only 0.15 miles ……..very frustrating.
15. [R22] Peloton 2/5 · GB Very glitchy: It has happened to me multiple times where I was in the middle of a class and the page has refreshed. Very annoying.
16. [R44] Peloton 5/5 · GB Love it!: From a fitness enthusiast, I’ve tried a lot of apps. This brings everything that I do at home, with that which I do outside! Thank you!!
17. [R45] Peloton 5/5 · GB Long time user: I’ve been using Peloton since its launch back 2018 and I’m invested in their ecosystem, helped me train for 6 marathons. meditation has been a game changer for me and I’m now slowly getting into strength training with them.
18. [R9] Peloton 3/5 · GB App issue: I am enjoying the peloton experience and utilise the bike, yoga & meditation workouts from the peloton bike. However, I find it very frustrating that I can’t access my full membership (and therefore the full peloton suite) from the app on my phone or tablet.
19. [R49] Peloton 5/5 · GB Brilliant: Fantastic! Motivating instructors, endless choice of workouts to suit your time/pace/level. No need for equipment. Have stuck with this and I’ll continue to do so. Thanks Team Pelaton!
20. [R8] Peloton 5/5 · GB Just fantastic: I love Peloton. I got my bike last month and I’ve cycled nearly 200 miles already. The instructors are so varied in style and motivating in different ways. The music is just as varied. I love that I can stretch afterwards too, and I’ve been using the guided meditations. Soon I’ll try some weight lifting classes too. It’s just a perfect service, it’s keeping me consistent with my ac
21. [R2] Peloton 5/5 · GB Peloton is extremely flexible: Peloton is an extremely flexible and useful exercise tool. It caters for all levels of fitness and has a wide range of incentives to keep users motivated. I have the bike at home and the app for a range of outdoor activities. It has kept me fit and happy since I gave up squash in my 60s. I love it.
22. [R32] Peloton 5/5 · GB Encouraging: I love that I can use the Peloton app wherever I may be, fantastic, uplifting and awesome/wholesome. Thank you Peloton
23. [R51] Fitness AI Gym Workout Planner 1/5 · US Super shady!!! Do not download!!!: I downloaded the app, started the three day trial and then decided that it was not a good fit for me. When I went to cancel it, it was almost impossible. The website states that you either cancel it using the gear icon to get to membership settings In the app or your iCloud subscriptions. Neither were available for me. I ended up having to go to the Fitness AI w
24. [R52] Fitness AI Gym Workout Planner 4/5 · US Pretty Good, Some Improvements Needed: Other people have already said what is great about the app, so here is what needs improvement: - Assisted pull ups and dips, according to the algorithm, get harder with more weight. If you do it successfully at 50 pounds, it bumps you to 55 instead of 45. The opposite should happen… - May not be possible, but should absolutely be useable without Wi-Fi… This
25. [R53] Fitness AI Gym Workout Planner 3/5 · US Average: I like that it compares me to others in my weight and age group. It’s easy to track your workouts. It doesn’t have cardio. It also doesn’t understand warm up sets or pyramiding, or working to failure. You need to do every set to a certain rep count and weight or it will consider it a failure. The AI just isn’t intelligent. This could be a great app in a year or two if the developers stick
26. [R56] Fitness AI Gym Workout Planner 3/5 · US Needs more cardio: If you like to incorporate cardio to your workout, this is not the greatest app. Overall, great selection for weight training.
27. [R25] Peloton 1/5 · GB No idea how to connect the watch: Followed all instructions and does not work. Unhelpful
28. [R35] Peloton 1/5 · GB To restrictive for 12.99: You pay 12.99 a month and it restricts you to how many work outs you can do!! It then wants you to upgrade to the full app for 24.99 a month to unrestrict !! That’s a joke, finished with peloton
