As a long-time YT subscriber of Blogilates, I thought the app would be a great way to access her workouts and calendar. Unfortunately this "free" app costs min $3.99/month to access a calendar that's free on her website and videos that are listed for free on YT. There's no search function for the workouts (a giant lapse in judgment imo) and you can only access one challenge at a time. If you're thinking about downloading this app, don't. Just go subscribe on YT; it's the same and actually free.

I love this app already. There is so much for free and the upgrade is super cheap and worth it. By upgrading I can track my progress and get access to every challenge that automatically pops up on my daily routine. I'm rating 5 because I know this is not a final product from blogilates. I'm hoping cheap clean eats recipes will be a tab someday and possibly a meal planner.

I love the idea of this app. I paid for a membership, watch and workout to the videos. However, I often have to go to YouTube to watch the videos. I would say 75-80% of the time her app just doesn't work.. you hit play, nothing. You try to rate the 'toughness', nothing. Then I have to watch an add from YouTube three times during each work out since you csnt watch them on the app. Starting to get very frustrated.

It's really frustrating and disappointing to be in the middle of a workout and the videos just stop and won't load anymore. All it says is "playback failed". It really ruins the entire workout. I thought it might have just been me, but after reading through some reviews I found it was a problem with the app. I really wanted to participate in the new hgs workout, but seems that won't be happening at the moment. 😔

Seems like a great app, but i can't use it. Everytime i try to create my account, it keeps telling me that the password "Needs to be at least 6 characters long" despite it being well over 12. I've tried several variations but nothing works. I've also used the option of continuing without an account, but there are many limitations that prevent me from having a comfortable experience. I've reinstalled it many times but to no avail. Please help :')

I was excited and loved the app so much during my 7 day trial that I signed up for the annual membership. However, as soon as the trial expired I was auto-logged out and there's no way to reset my password and log in with my existing accout. UPDATE: The app team helped me unlock my account but now the app crashes when I click "Profile", so I'm unable to update my password. Additionally, I'm unable to start a new challenge as there's no way to finish the challenge I missed while logged out.

The email announcement for the app says "free to download" and that the workout library is free. That is true. It's not misleading. All the videos are free. The only thing you have to pay for is the functionality of the calendar, and the challenges. People saw the word "free" and thought everything in the app is free. I like the layout of the app. I like how the videos are categorized by type. Easy to find everything.

I really liked the app initially. I paid for a yearly subscription because I live the workouts and having a monthly calendar. However, I can no longer sign in to my account. I try to reset username and password, but never receive a response. I have reached out to them via Instagram and was told there is something wrong on their end, but no solution. I had the same problem a couple months ago, but was able to use my fingerprint to login. That no longer works either.

I have been waiting for a Blogilates app for the last year and I'm so excited that there's one now! I can take all my favorite videos on the go with me and have them all at my fingertips! The app is super simple to use and have even subscribed to get the monthly calendar so I don't have to print it out. One problem I have is that I can't cast it to my TV so I'm stuck using my phone or searching for the video on YouTube.

I was looking forward to using this app. It wouldn't let me create an account, and the error was regarding the chain and my username. I figured at first it was just a username someone else already had, so I started trying random names and the error continued to pop up. I chose to uninstall the app. Perhaps once the bug is fixed, I'll return. Great videos and product. Would like to continue to support you by using the app.

I love the design and usability of this app. I paid for the premium version as I love all Blogilates challenges and can easily track them in this app. But it does have few issues. I realize it signed me out of my account and doesn't provide an option if you forgot your password. I haven't received any communication regarding what is being done about the issue as multiple people have expressed a similar issue on the Blogilates blog. There's not a clear way to figure out how to contact technical support so here I am. My main issue is I don't want to continue being charged for the premium version if I can't even access the content.

I love this app. I think it will get better over time and i cant wait to see it in its full form. Just a couple things i noticed. The challenges are not updating on the calendar. It just day one over and over. I cant see ahead what my workouts will be the next day. Also would love to see food tracking and water intake tracking. But i see the potential for this app and cant wait to see what there is to come.

I really enjoy the layout of this app and I appreciate that there are no ads on these videos (even when you don't pay for subscription). I only have 2 complaints. I wish I could search up the the title of the videos. This would make it a lot quicker to find those specific vids. I also would reaIly appreciate if I could cast on my tv. I keep trying to, but when i press it nothing happens. Youtube does allow me to cast Cassey's vids though so I know it's not my phone or my tv.

I enjoy the workouts and the calendar, but I do not feel like it is worth paying extra for the "Journey". My issues are: the scheduled workouts don't seem to be thought out; for example, 3 out of 4 workouts on one day were all "booty" videos with all the moves done on hands and knees which strained my wrists, and I don't like that the videos were pulled straight from YouTube and often have long and irrelevant intros. For a paid fitness app marketed as personalized it should be more streamlined.

I like the app as you can track and follow in detail what your doing daily. When paying for the subscription you have more access as in the workout routines and challenges to complete for a better personalized workout. My problem with the app is that you aren't able to cast it on the TV which is something that I thought would have been included when paying for the subscription. You can mirror your phone screen into your TV if you have a smart tv but their are many delays when playing it.

I love these workouts and have been doing then on YouTube for a while. I recently got my husband to do them with me too. I decided to pay for the subscription to avoid ads interrupting the workout. The only downside is that I cannot cast the videos to my TV. When I try to cast the videos, they reset and start over. When I cast my whole screen (instead of just the video from the app) it works, but when I do that the video sometimes freezes or skips for a bit while the audio still goes.

I love that all the videos are in one place and all organized. No more YouTube ads in the middle of dying lol. Great job on the app and can't wait to see where it goes from here. The most recent update has the app crashing and not opening videos. It will lock the app and you can use it. Super frustrating when you finally get the motivation to workout and then the app doesn't want to work, so I give up and doom scroll. Please fix the app!!!

First impressions: my phone goes to sleep while a video is playing, makes it hard to work out with, it'd be nice to include some data recording - we put in our weight or whatever we want to keep track of that way it's in one place with a visual graph would be cool. I can't seem to pause to make a video rewind without starting it completely over. Love the ease of searching for a video! I like the layout/theme of this app vs the older one, much more streamlined.

I loved using this app when it worked properly. Having horrible issues getting my daily workouts to load properly. No easy way to report an issue... had to leave a suggestion through the app and that didn't work. Had to Google how to contact for tech support... found an email and have heard absolutely nothing back. I am so sad as I love Cassey and her workouts just wish this issue could have been resolved promptly.

Made me pay twice for a subscription. I was paying the 3.99 subscription for a few months and canceled it when I wasn't able to use it but recently started using it again and realized I still couldn't access things in the app that I should be able to access. So I went back to the app and subscribed to the $3.99 again and it charged me twice under different emails. I could not find any contact for customer support either
