Couldn’t get into a habit. Too anxious to ask for help. This was an easy step into doing some routines without the anxiety of talking to personal trainers or feeling like I’m overwhelmed at the gym. Easy exercises that you can feel working. It also worked out more cost effective than a personal trainer and some great home exercises for those days being in public is just too much. Good luck.

I really wanted to love this app because it has a lot of potential. The interface is clean, user-friendly, and easy to navigate, which makes getting started simple.However, the biggest issue is the lack of exercise guidance and education. Many of the exercise videos are silent and provide little to no instruction on proper form, setup, or common mistakes to avoid. Some exercises don’t even have videos that match the programmed movement—for example, a dumbbell exercise may be demonstrated using a cable machine instead. This can be confusing, especially for beginners who rely on demonstrations to learn correct technique.A number of the videos also appear to be repurposed social media clips rather than professionally produced exercise tutorials. While this works well for platforms like TikTok, it feels out of place in a paid fitness app where users are expecting detailed coaching and instruction.Another issue is the lack of exercise variety. The same movements seem to appear repeatedly across workouts, making the programming feel repetitive over time.Most concerningly, some of the demonstration videos appear to show exercises being performed with questionable technique. For an app designed to guide people’s training, exercise demonstrations should consistently model correct form.Overall, the app is easy to use and has a strong foundation, but it would benefit greatly from more comprehensive exercise instruction, accurate demonstration videos, higher-quality educational content, and greater exercise variety.

Thank you for the detailed feedback—we’re glad Alive feels easy to use, and we hear you on wanting more exercise guidance. We recently launched the Learn section, where trainers share audible form tips and cues, and we’re actively expanding that library—Upvoting an exercise helps us prioritize what you want to see next. If anything ever feels mismatched or unclear, let us know which exercise and we’ll review it again. Some Learn videos may show more than one type of equipment, and the cues apply across equipment. As for exercise variety, we structure key movements intentionally to support progressive overload (the most reliable way to see results over time) within our programs, but you always have the flexibility to swap in an alternative. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts, your feedback helps shape what we build next.

I hate bad reviews but 🤷🏻‍♀️ I had created an account and somehow the email for confirming the account never came to me. So I tried deleting the account but couldn’t because i wasn’t authenticated. But somehow for the past 2 months money has been coming out even though I can’t even log into the app because my email account “doesn’t exist”. Support (lovely people) but they can’t seem to help or locate my account even though I provided every bit of detail or screenshot that money is coming out. On top of this I created an account just to see maybe I can somehow make it work and this time I found the confirmation email but clicking the link is “error” cannot load at this time. Now my account again doesn’t exist so I now cannot create any account with them. Even if I did I’ll be double charged. The app needs a lot of bug fixes or work someone else has mentioned the same review in the past.

Excited the app was finally available I tried for a week to make a premium purchase. Everytime it failed (on the apps end) so i wasn’t able to get the trail or access the apps content. When it finally worked and I got confirmation from apple that my purchase was successful the app continues to glitch. It won’t let me access the content because the “get premium” thing keeps popping up. So I try restoring and it says yep you’ve already purchased this but it won’t let me access anything. Maybe shutting my phone off or quitting the app? Nope no luck. Maybe logging out? Now I can’t log back in. Apparently my email address doesn’t exist in the system. But somehow it’s in my purchase history on my App Store. I know apps can have bugs but I’m disappointed that so long after the release date I’m still unable to use it. Won’t even get to take advantage of the 7 day trial as it doesnt even work.
