Glo | Yoga and Meditation App for Negative User Reviews
✓ Keeps crashing!!Latest version will not open - stalls at logo..Version: 5.8.1
✓ Can’t even try a class with committingI get that apps like this are costly to create and maintain. And I don’t mind paying to use the ones I genuinely like - I’m already subscribed to 2 that I use several times a week. HOWEVER I’d like the opportunity to try a few classes before handing over my credit card details! Glo wants you to commit before you’ve even tried a single class. Oh sure there’s a free trial period blah blah but that’s only if you sign up. So unfortunately im boy even going to entertain it. Pity because it looked promising..Version: 6.4.1
✓ Won’t let you use it with free trialI have been trying many different apps. I signed up for the 1 week trial. Get 1 minute into a routine and it urges me to sign up for a year. I hit ok knowing I can cancel it later. Can’t get back to where I was. I start it again. Same deal. Deleting the app now..Version: 7.1.5
✓ App not working thru appleTVI’ve been using Glo for several years now. During the pandemic I started using Glo through the App on AppleTV. It was wonderful! Having it on a full size tv allowed me to feel like I was in a actual studio. But recently, the app stop working properly. I can no longer search for classes. The content videos suggestions are no longer updating regularly. I reached out to Glo and was told that they were working on it. That was months ago. In the meantime, I’m missing out on a lot of Glo content and feel like I’m not getting my money’s worth. Hopefully this gets resolved soon or I may start checking out some of the newer fitness apps..Version: 7.1.8
✓ Won’t give me access to classes?I bought the one month subscription and yet it still won’t let me see full classes only the two minute “trailer” to them then the “buy this month or year package” pops up and if I click on the monthly subscription it just says “you are already subscribed”. Very unimpressed as this looked like a great app.Version: 6.4.5
✓ Glitches with Apple WatchOnce the session is done, the Apple Watch continue to register as active and reflect an inaccurate information on exercises and movement ring. Deleting the app from watch or iPhone app, doesn’t work. Logging out and back in is the same. Quite disappointed, would have like to see more effort for the app to work effectively to register the mindfulness and exercises ring with precision. I enjoy the classes but it’s not effective if it registers this information accurately..Version: 6.9.1
✓ If only the app would load anythingGreat content, amazing teachers however the app struggles to load anything instantly. Sometimes I wait for a screen to load for almost a minute or it just never loads.. and I just can’t use it. I often can’t use some of the apps features like saving a favourite class because that part of the app just won’t load. Considering the amount you pay in subscriptions for this app, this should be fixed. … I’m here writing a bad review because my meditation class wouldn’t load.. again! (I have good internet btw, it’s the app).Version: 6.9.1
✓ Decent selection but incredibly slow loadingThe selection is decent. I’ve participated in some really lovely classes on this app with teachers I enjoy. But the videos load much slower than any other app on my iPad. I’ve got 40mb / second download speeds on my wifi and I’m still waiting to download a 20 minute class I tried to start 25 minutes ago. I wanted to stream it but it kept buffering, disrupting my practice. To make matters worse it’s pretty buggy and just stopped downloading three classes I had queued and now I have to go find them again. The search feature is also lacking. It has some interesting categories that the classes are organized into, but I’m usually scrolling through a list of loosely related classes and I have to click in and read over and over to find one I’m interested in..Version: 6.4.4
✓ Im a paid sub for 2 years nowVery few new classes have been added in that time. So many classes are labeled level 1 and are actually more advanced than any beginner class I have ever taken. (Ive taken over 400 classes with more than 30 teachers) I dont know who labels these classes - but it can be dangerous. (Always check with your Doctor before starting any exercise program) Classes with props are seriously lacking in the app as well. Something as common as a fitness ball has 3-4 classes - and half dont even use the ball for more than a couple minutes. I dont want 80 classes on how to breathe. Thats the most popular and updated classes from what I can tell. I get why, but its a bit overkill at this point. I subbed and stay subbed for teachers like Anula. She definitely understands beginner classes and is so thorough in her explanations. Her classes are fun and unconventional- and she’s a great teacher and motivator. Hope this produces some change in the app for users that actually stay engaged and support..Version: 7.1.2
✓ Great- but do NOT pair with your Apple WatchI have loved Glo for 8 years, and have used it almost daily during that time. It’s truly been a lifesaver since the pandemic. I tried using the app with my Apple Watch to streamline my workout/fitness documentation hoping it would build on my previously great experience. Sadly it’s so disappointing. The past few app versions have had very poor streaming with the app frequently crashing. Most frequently though, I use my iPhone to stream a class and when it’s done, swipe up anc lose the Glo app to make sure the time is logged correctly. BUT the app still runs on my watch, opening by itself and prompting me to select a class. Even when I push the dial and “close” the app on my watch it still logs it as “workout” time. My rings are messed up, my fitness times log workouts of sometimes 30+ hours. It’s useless now. After submitting multiple service tickets to Glo, I’ve updated both my Phone and Watch and it still happens. Please fix this! 🙏.Version: 6.8.4
✓ Good design but poor uxScrolling through series is laggy. Clearly a web that keeps loading with lag... Hard to keep track of where you are... Especially since you cannot filter by level? Not to mention that the levela are not very intuitive. I mean level 1 workout comes with handstand! Whaaat? The content seems good though. But with so many yoga apps out there, you gotta raise your UX/tech game Also... Another star down as although connected to health app... It's not passing my workout to the app. Also....Version: 6.4.2
✓ Keep advancingGlo was my favorite app 10 years ago. I don’t feel they have kept up with adding music or modifying practice. There is nothing between beginner and advanced as most classes are really moderate and not intermediate. Pilates is also very Elementary and boring. Keep moving forward. Both dice and tiffany have advanced their classes with functional approaches. Yay. 🙏.Version: 7.1.7
✓ 5 stars for YogaGlo - 3 for the app itselfI’ve been with YogaGlo for several years now and have nothing negative to say about the service itself. It offers styles of yoga difficult to find elsewhere and has recently expanded into other types of fitness that I am eager to try. HOWEVER - lately I have not been able to get the app to recognize that I have a paid subscription, which is current and paid up. The app is functionally useless due to this, as all content is behind a paywall (which I am already paying to access). The online webpage works fine and I can do my routines through use of my laptop, but as I’m already paying for this I’d like very much to be able to use the app..Version: 6.5.5
✓ Waste of timeYou cannot use this app unless you buy the $39 upgrade, you cannot even get into the app without this, very disappointed..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Issues with subscriptionDespite paying for the monthly subscription, I’m unable to access full classes or content. Each time I try it prompts to buy subscription, despite already being subscribed. I’ve tried deleting the app and re-downloading, cancelling the subscription and resubscribing, but I only get a loading symbol. Extremely frustrating. Wasted a ton money paying for a subscription without being able to access any content. Would not recommend.Version: 7.0.2
✓ So close yet so farThe app is great! Great instruction, great library, user friendly, it’s exactly what I’m looking for to reach my flexibility goals. Unfortunately I have to cancel because they don’t have the ability to shoot the video to my tv easily. That’s a deal breaker for me..Version: 6.4.4
✓ Are you trying to make me mad cause it’s workiNgLiterally have to buy a stupid little membership to try ANY of the programs. Are any of them free???? Not any that I wanted to try! Stupid garbage app -0/0 stars big sad I’m poor I want free yoga.Version: 6.4.4
✓ Waste of TimeI hate apps like this. You literally can’t do ANYTHING unless you pay the premium. Not a single practice. Don’t bother downloading this one..Version: 7.2
✓ Poor appI’ve been using the site since 2014 but the new app is useless. It knows nothing about me but tries to direct me to things I’m not interested in. At the same time searching for the kind of things I like is impossible so I don’t bother. I just do the classes that are in my class history. I should imagine that there are many many classes that a new user will not find. Previously it worked so well. I can’t understand why the good app has been replaced for this poor one... but things are done for a reason. Are the owners looking to get new business, so the site looks good and exciting, but the business plan of offering a large choice of classes doesn’t bring in so much money so is put very much to the back of the queue..Version: 6.0.3
✓ Classes not loadingPls fix.Version: 6.8.2
✓ Great content, app needs improvementsLove the content, and the variety. I have been using this most days of the week. However, the app could be much better. When I do this in the morning, I can’t stream classes because it just buffers so I have to download them, which is also a slow process and also limits my choices in the moment. (Sometimes I am able to stream during the evening. I don’t have any other consistent issues with my internet and we are household with two WFH employees.) The download section of the app is confusing because it seems to list every class that was downloaded, including all the ones that have expired. I’d like to be able to access the ones that are currently downloaded, a filter option could fix. I love Glo, it could just use some improved delivery!.Version: 6.4.2
✓ UpdatedA well presented yoga app with a vast library of (what appear to be) great quality classes available. However, a recommendation would be to add an option allowing users to sort 'my classes' videos according to user preference. For example, if I have a number of favourite videos which relate to 'winding down', there should be an option to save these to a 'winding down' folder (or other folder name of my choice). Otherwise, in order to find what you want, you have to scroll through a list of videos which are in no particular order. That said, for variety and quality, this is probably the best yoga app out there. Three stars for now but Five stars if the issue stated above is sorted. UPDATE - this has now been fixed I've changed this to two stars for now as I keep getting logged out for no reason. All of the downloaded videos cease to be available offline. I have only my phones data plan of 9gb per month (and no wifi) so being able to download and watch videos offline is what makes this app useable to me. This has happened a few times now so unless this issue is rectified, I won't be continuing my membership - a shame as it's a good yoga app..Version: 5.3.0
✓ Big fan, but wish the app would take better care of personal notedI’ve subscribed to YogaGlo since 2012. It was really good then, and it’s only gotten better since. Although the number of teachers has grown a lot, I find myself going to the same 4 teachers. And even though I do end up repeating classes, there’s enough variety so that it never feels too repetitive or boring. The time flexibility makes it easy to maintain a regular practice. I would give a 5 star rating but the app isn’t the greatest, and since this is an app store review, I’m deducting a bit for that. I use the note function to keep notes for myself about specific practices. A number of years ago, they did a refresh of the app and the note function was jettisoned. In the process, all of my carefully kept notes were deleted. A little while back, the note function was restored. I thought my notes would be safe, so I started to keep notes again. Recently, for some unknown reason, over half of my notes mysteriously disappeared. I’m disappointed to see this second loss of notes. I wish the people who handle the Glo app would do more to take good care of their users’ records..Version: 6.7.13
✓ EXPENSIVE!Netflix is cheaper - and YouTube classes are FREE!.Version: 6.4.6
✓ “Downloaded Classes” feature is a work-in-progressI recently went on a retreat in an area without cell service and with limited Internet. It wasn’t possible to stream classes, so I tried downloading them. HUGE headache. Anytime the connection would falter, the download would stall/stop and could not be resumed, only restarted from the very beginning. If my phone locked itself while I was waiting for the download to complete, it would stop again. It was a complete PITA, but I managed to grab two classes eventually. Next problem: After I finished the classes, the app showed them as having been taken, but would not mark them as complete within my program, even after I connected again to the internet. I had to fake-retake the classes while streaming, just to get them counted. Very irritating. I’m glad this feature exists, but I wish it were more functional..Version: 5.7.0
✓ Doesn’t work with oder versions than iOS 15!I get prompted “ this app requires iOS 15(I have 12)- would you like to download an older version?”. I click on YES and absolutely NOTHING happens! Why can’t you make apps easily available to older iOS? Not everyone always uses the newest operating systems/ devices!!!:((.Version: 7.1.2
✓ The app doesn’t allow me to play classes when paying for the full subscriptionI have paid for the full subscription, but the app is still treating me as if I’m not, so I can’t watch any classes, sign up for anything or use any functionality whatsoever. It’s been several days and I’ve reported it to support, but no one is actually replying to their support messages. So far, this is the worst app of any category that I have used, and the AppStore should not allow it to be open for purchase when it doesn’t work..Version: 6.3.8
✓ Pausing a video completely loses your placeI have had a Glo account ever since it was called YogaGlo. 10 years now… The app is nowhere as good as the website (which also had glitches but I deal with it). I use an iPhone and have had several iPhones over the past 10 years and they all do the same thing with this app. When I’m in the middle of a video and I pause it; completely loses my place and then goes to the end of the video where it says “good job”. It’s so frustrating; Especially when you are totally in your zone and only stop to take a swig of water. One of the greatest things about streaming exercise is if you need to take a break you can pause it. You can’t do that with this app because you will lose your place and unless you happen to remember to know exactly what minute you were on it’s just going to be endless frustration. I can’t imagine I’m the only person that has had this problem. This is hands down the most expensive streaming service I pay for. It’s such a minor detail that they could probably fix very easily..Version: 7.1.5
✓ Great when it worksThis app is great when it works. Unfortunately it is glitchy and unreliable. This morning instead of getting my morning session, I spent 45 minutes trying to get it to load, then updating the app, then being logged out, then it not recognising the email address I’m registered with. The app is too pricey to be unreliable and have a negative impact on my day like this..Version: 7.1.6
✓ Great content! bad / unnecessary UI updateI have been a member/subscriber for at least four years now. I love the content. The class and teacher Variety is excellent. This is the third version that has been a massive update. The last one was excellent. This one leaves a lot missing. It’s confusing you re-organized everything. For instance why would you change the search filter feature pop out from the right side of the screen on iPad to pop out of the the left-hand side of the screen? Sorry lefties but but the majority of people are right handed. Not a big deal but seems like a good example of the unnecessary changes that were made. I am sure I will get used to it but feels less intuitive..Version: 6.0.0
✓ AWFULI tried to cancel my account and I have not been answered and charged since APRIL. It is August and I am still getting charged. It’s a scam. Don’t sign up unless you want to be charged even when you can’t afford it..Version: 6.7.6
✓ Completely unusableI am unable to do any of the workouts despite having the free trial activated and an active subscription. It just asks me to subscribe again and then when I try to subscribe I get a pop up that I have a current subscription. I’ve tried logging in and out and re-downloading the app. All I get are the preview classes. Would love to be able to actually review the content of the app if it worked!.Version: 7.1.1
✓ Poorly DesignedNot very user-friendly. Classes are more difficult to find. For example: running specific classes are no longer found under the ‘Focus’ section. I searched and came up with 49 classes, but instead of an infinite scroll you now have to click ‘show more’ after every few classes which makes me want to stop searching after a few clicks. I couldn’t locate a simple sleep meditation. “Meditation” is listed under the Practice menu and the Style menu (difference?). Tried both with a focus of Sleep and nothing was found. Added sleep in the search box and still nothing. On top of the flawed design, my go-to classes were by Claire Missingham, whose classes are now entirely absent from the app. This is a service that we have used almost daily for years and this is a big disappointment..Version: 6.0.0
✓ Not thrilled with the updateI’ve been using yoga Glo for about a year and I have absolutely loved it! the teachers, variety of class styles and durations are exactly what I was hoping for in an app. However, the new update is not user as user friendly as the last version. While I like the style of the new “glo” now, it’s takes me much longer to find a class that I want to do each day. Each video takes up the whole screen now making it hard to compare your options. Also the styles used to be arranged by color making it easier to find the style I was in the mood for that day. Everything seems to just take one extra step that I didn’t have to go through in the old version. I hope that there are more updates to come because I love this app so much, but since this update I’ve considered looking for another app..Version: 6.0.2
✓ Waste of timeA waste of time loading this app. I say this because I have downloaded the workouts to my iPhone XS and I have ultra fast WiFi of up to 200 meg speed. And every time I go into the app to load my workouts it just loads and loads. You never get to open up the app at all. Yet when I upload through Gaia. No problems. So I shall cancel my trail. Anyway I have the downloads for life been that I used screen record to record the videos lol. Up there for thinking and down there for dancing lol.Version: 6.0.3
✓ Classes great, app not so greatThis app never registers that I’ve completed a class. Sends me all kinds of annoying emails that are controlled somewhere deep in the app settings. I’ve done about 8 classes and I can’t give gratitude or use the functions because “I haven’t completed the class”. Super annoying. At least the classes and content is good.Version: 7.1.3
✓ Doesn’t allow to unsubscribeThe app does not allow you to cancel your subscription. I have tried numerous times and even requested help through their support line with no response back..Version: 7.1.5
✓ FIX YOUR APPNot sure why y’all bumping up the prices before fixing this app, it still has a lot of flaws, it’s hard to find things you’ve saved, the filters don’t work, videos skip to the end unable to be played, etc. I like the app been subscribed for 2 years and still running into these problems, now yall are making the pricing ridiculous- FIX THE APP!!!!!!.Version: 7.2
✓ Last update is awful...I used to love yogaglo. I’ve been a subscriber for about five years and practice at least three days a week. At first the roku app stopped working, no big deal I just used my laptop or iPad. Now I have moved and don’t have access to internet ad lib. So I would download my practices when I had access. After the most recent update, the downloaded practices won’t play. If I have access to internet they will play, which defeats the purpose. I’ve contacted customer service and at first I thought I was getting help and was told many people are having issues now it’s getting turned into it being an error on my end. Needless to say I am very disappointed. I am now looking into other yoga apps and may cancel yogaglo altogether. Practicing yoga should not be stressful or upsetting..Version: 5.8.1
✓ Great getting my practise going againThe app has changed. The first week of use a range of options popped up which made it so easy to select duration and what you wanted. These then disappeared. I have found the options again as drop down box from filter, so all ok again but not as straight forward. Great classes and lots of choice. I’ve been using this app for about three weeks now and really enjoying it. I do some longer classes, but mainly shorter ones before work and bedtime.Version: 6.4.0
