YMCA of the Triangle Fitness

I mainly use this app to keep track of my weight training workouts. It works pretty well for this, but has one major flaw and one minor. First, if you are in the middle of a workout and the app is killed by the OS for whatever reason, it does not remember your progress when it relaunches. This is a huge frustration. There is no reason it can’t persist your in-progress workout and put you right back there when it relaunches. As it is I have to try to remember what I had filled in and start over. The second issue, which is more of a minor annoyance, is that the app will occasionally pause the music you have playing when you switch to it. I have to unpause my music multiple times throughout my workout.

While the y app has never been perfect, this one is really terrible—it works about 50 % of the time. I use it to review and schedule group fitness classes. It runs very slowly when trying to pull up classes. Many times I’ll get an error message when waiting for the classes to load. Today it is telling me booking is unavailable for classes later in the day. I never had this much trouble with any of the previous apps.

How does this app have 4.5 stars. Since the March update it has been totally mismanaged by eGYM and the Y. On June 11th the App cannot be used to schedule classes. eGYM response is non existent. The Y does no proactively communicate to let their members know when the App is down and/or when it’s back up working properly.

Want to view the class schedule? Crash. Want to sign up once you can finally view? Crash. The only thing predictable about using this app is that it will only work 40% of the time.

Unable to book or see any classes. App is up to date, have signed out and signed back in again, and restarted phone, but consistently getting “Error: Something went wrong. Please try again.”

This app was convenient and easy to use until its last update. Now its authorization process is broken so you can’t even log in. Update 2024-05-21: The login issues appear to have been fixed. The app remains glitchy, slow and overall subpar u/x.

Before recent update everything was better. Its been 2 months i cant book any classes.

The app is slower and glitches more after the update. It freezes most time when I want to join a waitlist for a class.

Every time I want to sign up for a class the class screen freezes. Every other button works but the class button. I have to restart my phone every time just to sign up for a class.

I like that you can filter out the pool schedule. However you can’t tap between days of the week to view classes. Once you tap Wed, for ex, you can’t tap Mon in the same week, so you have to scroll all the way through the classes back to Mon. It’s easy to be looking at the wrong day wo realizing it. The old app didn’t have this issue
