pliability: stretch + mobility

I have used this app consistently for 40 weeks and I know 100% that without this app I would never have kept it up and been consistent! I love everything about it. The man’s soothing voice. The backgrounds. The routines. The athletes performing the stretches. Recently there was a January stretching challenge and finally took the time to have a custom stretching routine make for my needs. I loved it! I am an exercise coach and I have implemented many of the stretches into my clients routines. I also do Structural Integration and after stretching for 40 weeks and seeing the results I tell all my clients about this app. Honestly after using this app for awhile you will see your mobility and flexibility improve so much that you won’t want to ever stop. Thank you Pliability for inventing the best app ever and providing me with the tool to enable me to age gracefully and feel better than I did 20 years ago 🙌🏻

Free trial isn’t really free you need to sign up and agree to pay. Company only accepts credit card and not visa debit.

If ever you try it and don’t like it like I did. You will not find the membership in apple’s membership management system. They don’t care about you and glad to keep your money.

This app is yin yoga repackaged for crossfit bros. But don’t expect to know that from the app - they go to great lengths to avoid referencing anything to do with yoga. Heck, even the shavasana at the end is called “the rebound”. But beyond this gripe, the poses are generally okay, except there’s not a lot of true variety. Sure, it changes day to day, but often one week will have very repetitive poses, and they may cycle the same few videos over and over before introducing something new. But I save my harshest criticism for the voiceover / “coaching”. It seems to have really ramped lately with the amount of times the voiceover cuts in, and the amount of words used to say almost nothing. This is supposed to be relaxing and meditative, but there’s no way to escape the voice trying to tell you to “surrender”, or to “use your intuition”, or not be concerned about “aesthetics”. ??? I’d rather have actual useful coaching about how to get in/out of poses and areas to focus on. Instead it’s just a nonsensical stream of koans. And the cherry on top is that the guy has just awful diction and rhythm. I wish there was a way to disable or reduce the voice coaching, but it appears the folks behind this app (maybe even the voice himself) consider this an essential feature.

I tried so many times to get into my account to cancel my subscription. I requested a password reset everyday for five days. It didn’t come. Finally the charge happened today and I requested a password reset and it worked, after the charge of course. So now I cancelled post charge so a waste of the $15. I never leave reviews but this is beyond annoying.

I got this app cause I’ve had chronic knee pain but all the movements for healthy knees involve long holds with deep knee bends. If I could do deep knee bends I wouldn’t be looking for solutions to keeping myself moving. I’ll stick to YouTube videos that are more specific I guess.

Can’t even sign up for the app without errors. So lame that they don’t have login with google either. Probably will turn to GOWOD

Overall, very happy with this app, it’s consistency in getting me to stretch properly and giving the time to each stretch that is necessary has really improved my flexibility. I like how meditative a lot of the poses are. Obvious next steps for the app would be now that I’m familiar with the introductions to be able to cut those out of the audio track. Also, it would be nice if they stopped putting flat needle into a lot of the workouts as I don’t really understand the point of this move. Nothing is working, but other than that move, the rest have been really good.

Charged me $130 dollars for a year long membership, didn’t send me notice of charging me and I only found out through my credit card bill. When I told them about the misunderstanding they refused to refund my money or change my plan. Extremely disappointed by this bad faith style of doing business.

This app is amazing! My life has improved by building good habits and taking care of my body. It’s all thanks to pliability. Every routine is focuses on mindfulness and movements, or poses that increase flexibility ad mobility. I always find myself using this app to better my recovery and self care routines. The subscription is reasonable. On top of the great routines provided, pliability aims to further your knowledge with a lot of poses. There’s a lot more I can say, but I’ll keep it short. Great app highly recommend.
