Aaptiv - Audio Fitness

Coaches and curated music is great! However the Spotify play through runins your workout approximately 40% of the time: the music will randomly pause at the most intense parts of the workout, the lyrics and songs don't line up with the trainers queues, and volume is so low you can't really crank it up for motivation. Thankfully some workouts offer the trainers playlist directly so I recommend you only use those.

Excellent. Update @ past 1 month. This is an excellent app for fitness and mind. A PT in your pocket and good for home or gym use. I've lost 10kgs in 1 month. 6/5 for Aaptiv and their trainers/workouts for ALL LEVELS. So much in this app! Advanced athletes to beginners. Great for mental health too. @ 6 months. This app changed my life. I'll never not use it everyday. The trainers are like family. Do your body and mind a favour. My Dr is very pleased with my weight and lowered BP. 🙏🧘

I didn't think I would like or need this app until I tried it. Even for people who don't use free weights, there are lots of classes on stretching, meditation, yoga, etc. that I found helpful just to be able to relax.

This is the best fitness app or service I've ever had! So much variety, and all professional. Thx Aaptiv teams!

I mainly use the outdoor walking and running coaches. They are EXCELLENT!! They do a great job of motivating and teaching the correct form! They have really kept me engaged and I get excited challenging myself!

I just celebrated my third year using this app, and it's kept me in shape and sane during this crazy time. I love the inspiring trainers, and the workouts are varied enough that it never gets repetitive. I'll be a lifetime member! I turn 60 this year and feel like I've got another 60 in me!!

Love this app, at home or at the gym this app has everything you need for a good workout. Excellent visuals, super workout coaches and top notch customer service! I've had this app for years and I'll have it for many more.

Customer service is excellent. They give you the right services at the right price. The instructors are clear and ensure you maintain form. I particularly like how easy it is to customize my daily workout.

I like this app as someone who has access to headphones, a treadmill, a gym and the outdoors. Checks all the boxes. Love that it's audio guided so you don't have to have your phone out staring at it. Edit- upon having this for a while I've noticed the algorithm for selecting from workouts isn't the greatest. Shows the same like 15 workouts even though there are tones on the app. You just have to search.

App disconnects from casting videos on my TV. Also, while exercising with videos, video closes out abruptly. I would like to see more yoga videos from Jess.

Love the variety of workouts and coaching styles. Plus new classes are being added all the time, so you're never static! It's a great community of others encouraging you as you hit your goals and get daily work put in. So worth the money!

Great workout app. Love the audio. It makes it easier to work out and focus. Great music selection. Glad they fixed the function to select your own mix, or connect to Spotify. Would highly recommend this app to anyone looking to get fit. It's a great app with lots of workouts, with new workouts being added. I've been an Aaptiv member for 2 years. It's the only fitness app I've used where I've been able to work out from home! This app helped me lose weight during the pandemic!!!

Updating my review. What used to make this app great is no longer there. Used to be great music. Workouts tailored to beginners intermediate and advanced. The trainers used to provide a unique experience for each level but now it's just one generic workout and you are encouraged to modify to your level. And the music is just mediocre. I can do all that myself!

I like listening to the coaches and the music is great. The focus is on movement, but there is no guidance on nutrition which gives you more work to do if you need to lose weight. You need to build your own workout with a warm up and cool down. The positive is that the app gives you loads of control by breaking up the parts of working out buy if you dont know that at first you will jump into a workout cold and stiff. I like this app overall, especially the community, music and coaches.

This app is the ONLY fitness app I've been able to stick to (and I've tried dozens). The workouts are so fun and motivating that I actually want to open the app every day. And as the other reviewer mentioned, it's such a nice break from the constant screens we have to see all the time. I love the variety of the workouts, the music options, the awesome trainers, and the design of the app itself which is beautiful and intuitive. Thank you!

So far, I'm loving this app. The variety and quality of workouts is great. The playlists pair well with the flow of the exercises. Mediation and stretching are a nice compliment to the heavier stuff. My only minor complaint is that you can't search by title. The browse and filter functions are awesome, but I'd really like a standard search sometimes.

The best!!! i have tried so many different video spin class and was not impressed. i was very skeptical about an audio only class when my friend raved about this. after doing a few classes i am hooked and look forward to it every time. Great coaches and great music. And an impressive selection of classes to choose from. Who needs peleton when you have aaptiv!!!

Really used to love this app, but the recent upgrades made it as annoying as any other app, only this one costs quite a bit to pay for push notifications you cant turn off, annoying pop ups to close before you can start a workout and workouts you save and disappear. this is a great example of what happens when you try to improve a good thing. Horrible market decision, but dont bother trying to tell them, they aren't at all interested in feedback.

First they came for the boxing classes, and I dealt with it, but this last update is terrible. I have a select group of classes that were my favorite BECAUSE of the perfect blend of music and instruction. The Lizzo-lliptical and such - the instructors referred to the song itself for motivation THAT IS WHAT MADE THIS APP GREAT. Music is important to me, so knowing what songs are on a workout really was important to me. That's how I selected my favorites. Now they are gone. CHANGE IT BACK!

Changing my review from 5 star to 1. Paid for a full year-now the workout programs that I was interested in and had disappeared. On the bright side, I wasn't in the middle like those in the marathon training programs. Now it's truly hard to find a workout that I like and want to do. his is sad because I actually canceled a decent app to move to this. Oh, and scheduled apps don't pull up from the calendar, so that function doesn't work. You have to save them to so you can find them again quickly.

The music no longer syncs up with the class cues making it hard to follow the trainer's directions!!! I have had this app for over a year (Loved it!!) and mostly used for spinning and elliptical. With this new change it makes this app essentially useless for me. I would hate to have to cancel my subscription. Also update the newest version (4/23/21) and curated options are completely gone. Cardio cast does not have this issue.

I find the trainers professional, fun, positive, and helpful. The music is amazing. The number of choices of workouts and trainers are amazing too. I am glad I kmow the names and moves and postures already. As the directions and explanations are good, but I still rely some on what I already know. Another great feature is that you can schedule workouts and they appear on your calendar.

great all around! I'm a beginner at working out so sometimes it's hard to know what the trainer is telling me to do/what proper form is. The app is a little hard to navigate and you can't "unstart" a workout program which is annoying. But overall this app is great! I feel like I know what I'm doing at the gym, the trainers are fantastic, and you can filter the workouts by level, time, music, ect. I'm in the gym way more!!

I love the idea of this app but it has a few issues and there is definitely room for improvement. My stats sections won't update and is showing incorrect information. Also, would be very helpful if we could write notes about each workout and see my ratings afterwards, for now I guess I'll just have to remember every workout I didn't like? Or create a playlist for the workouts I didn't like? Seems like this would be an easy thing to add. Otherwise LOVE the app and the motivation it gives me 😊

It overall is nice, and has gotten a lot better over the last year with quality of life improvements, but it still has some basic issues that are frustrating. For instance, when it creates a plan for your workout routine, you cannot change what days its recommended workout falls on. I can only make it to the gym on Mon, Wed, Friday, but it defaults its strength training (can do at home) on those days and cardio on Tues, Thursday and Saturday (need equipment), and won't let me switch them.

The first iteration of the app was awesome, but the user experience has gotten a lot worse, and the app is super buggy. You can't search other workouts without exiting the current one, it makes you go through many screens once a workout is over before allowing you to search again, and sometimes the audio just cuts out mid workout. I've been using it for a while because the trainers are awesome, so I'm still an active user, however the user experience needs to be a lot better and smoother. The searching/filtering functionality isn't very good either; initially, the Newest workouts used to be publicised, but now they only display by Most Popular, which always shows the same exact workouts from almost 6 months ago. I just feel like I have to do a lot of work to find newer programs/use the app smoothly, and it's starting to put me off.
