Title says it all... awesome app, amazing workout, good people. Couple of minor things would make the a better: 1) When you’ve had multiple membership passes, the number of classes left doesn’t show up on the home screen past the first time (maybe make it show just active pass?) 2) Would be cool if the challenge status was integrated into the home screen instead of a link
This app is by far one of the smoothest fitness apps I’ve used. It’s simple, straight forward and gets the job done. HOWEVER!! Why are we not able to change our Red Room spots after choosing one without having to cancel the entire class and rebooking. This becomes a pain when it’s past the 12 hour cancelation window because I don’t want to to cancel I just want to switch spots from Tread to Double Floor sometimes at last minute and can’t. Please add this feature! Not only would it help your clients out and allow us to make the changes but your staff would also be more available for studio support vs being on the phone taking calls to switch peoples spots. I’m sure this happens a lot.
Barry’s was already expensive, but they keep raising prices. They raised prices and reduced the amount of time for the class. What’s the point of the price increase… inflation? Does it suddenly cost more to tell someone to run faster or lift more weight? Lol. It would be interesting to see year-over-year customer count by location. I’d estimate that the number of class attendees has sharply declined as a result. You can’t even get a monthly membership unless you expect to pay over $1,100, but that’s if you only attend once a day. I thought Equinox was expensive at $240, but unlimited classes and an actual gym sounds like a win! Don’t forget that a healthy company is about increase in customer count, NOT sales. 🙏🏻✌🏻😌
Great app overall with a few additional requests to make it 5 star worthy
- Ability to add friends and see what classes they're taking (similar to ClassPass) - Ability to see spot on the waitlist. This is one of my biggest Barry's pain points. It can be a challenge to reach the studio and the hours often restrict when I'm able to check on my spot - Ability to switch out the class pack you're using to reserve without having to cancel out of the class and rebook. Have often needed to do this when I'm trying to use up certain packs by earlier expiration dates.
The app recently has become very slow and constantly freezes or takes a very long time to load. Obviously around 12 PM when sign up opens there’s a lot of traffic to the app, which may be part of the issue, but even at other random times of day I have noticed this issue. Often doesn’t load on the first try and have to force quit and reopen. Not sure what happened but it’s a recent development. The app used to work great.
Barrys is an unbelievable high intensity work out that will elevate your fitness to the next level. The coaches are extremely passionate and motivating. Every class I have taken has been well planned. They play upbeat music, and coaches continually check in with you individually at times, but allow you to push yourself on your own. I have enjoyed every class I have taken at Barry’s, and would recommend Barrys Boston to everybody!
I work In the digital world. What a lot of people get wrong is how to make a simple process for the user to find what they are looking for, and making it easy to buy your product or service. Barry’s has a great app that allows you find classes, book those classes, and pay for them in a very easy manner. Whoever built this for you did one amazing job.
Love Barry’s and this app makes it so easy to sign up. There are a few tweaks to it that would make it 5 star worthy though. I wish I could add friends and see what workouts they have signed up for. Also wish that I could switch location after signing up without cancelling the class. Occasionally I decide I want to switch to double floor last minute and it’s too late to cancel. Hoping for an update with these soon! 🤞🏻
Amazing app! So easy to reserve classes and change your spot. One suggestion would be to add a feature to anonymously rate and review instructors. Some instructors are not good, as evident by the few number of people in the class.
I want to love this app, but it doesn’t give you the option for notifications. Normally I shut them off but when I’m waitlisted for a 6am class, I don’t want to be constantly checking the app to see if I got a spot in. I would love a notification that I’m confirmed for a waitlisted class. I also would like the option to cancel / change my membership type on the app - it doesn’t let you do anything except add more passes / memberships.
The app is laggy but passable. However there is no google calendar integration for some resson. On the web when you click “add to calendar” it lets you select what type of calendar you want to sdd the reservation to, but in the app ot only allows apple calendar. Also I don’t understand why I need to do this manually at all, why isn’t there a setting to automatically send (and modify) calendar invites?
After years of struggling through the very mobile-unfriendly Barry’s website to book classes, the new app is great. It could have been terrible. I was expecting something janky and broken. It wasn’t — This app works perfectly. I’m taking off one star because the “Add to Calendar” feature gives an obscure error message with my Google calendar, but I’m sure they’ll fix that soon! 😉
the specific reason I use the website vs the app is I can’t filter by studio to see the schedule. Unless I filter by a specific instructor I have to just scroll through aimlessly until I find one of the studios near me and see who is instructing. Letting the schedule mirror what’s on the website would motivate me to actually use the app. For now I just have it and never open it
Nice improvements; however the display of classes reserved is reversed. Now the class reserved furtherest out is displayed first. The class reserved that is the soonest is displayed last. Basically the list of classes reserved is inverted. Also would be convenient to have a link to report bugs within the app itself instead of writing a review.
This is a great app to schedule workout classes, but for some reason I can’t book the new “$99 for two weeks” special without going in-person to the Barry’s location to buy the package? A bit confusing but other than that, the app is great!
Great for booking but smoothie ordering needs features
Easy to book a spot in class but not possible to modify a smoothie 100%. For example you can select egg white protein instead of vegan stuff but you can’t actually remove the vegan protein from the smoothie order. Take a look at how sweetgreen allows you to modify salads. You guys need something like that.
What can I say about the Atlanta Barry’s Boot Camp? Quite frankly, it’s the best work out and overall life experience that I’ve ever had in gym fitness. If you haven’t checked it out, you should check it out soon. Challenge yourself, get out of your comfort zone and try it out The Red Room. Be careful, it’s addictive. Dean
I love Barry’s and was thrilled to finally have an app! However, myself and many others have found that the lack of “location” filter is pretty crazy seeing as that is how most people determine the class they sign up for. Instead of having to sift through 40 8:30 AM classes please add the location filter and it will be nearly perfect!
I feel like it’s been nearly 3+ years since there’s been a properly functioning app. Cheers to the folks who got this app together. It’s clear, super intuitive, and has kept track of my entire Barry’s experience to date. Kudos!
Love the app but I would love an upgrade to allow more than one region studios to be selected. I spend a lot of time in multiple states and would be nice to always have the studios I use in view to schedule classes.
Great app for all your needs - booking class, checking in, ordering fuel bar, buying credits, etc. Only thing I would love to see is the ability to bookmark a class for future booking.
This app runs hellllaaaa smooth and doesn’t have any hiccups. The UI is extremely user-friendly even for a first time user. It lets you manage everything relating your classes with ease.
Sharing this feedback out of my love of Barry’s and in the hopes that it helps. The app simply is not very good: when trying to book specific spots, the system simply takes much, much longer than it should and it frequently times out. Yes, I realize that these are huge problems but when you’re trying to book 7-8 classes at a time (for the week ahead) those delays and issues build up and frustrate. Not sure why this is happening but I hope the app team at Barry’s is monitoring this feedback and takes it into consideration. In an era of instant everything, the slowness and bugginess of this app sticks out — particularly given the high cost per class.
Of course the "Best workout in the world" has one of the best apps in the fitness industry! I love working out at Barrys, and the app does exactly what it is meant to do. The ONLY thing I would like to see change is the ability to sync with Apple Calendar, otherwise its perfect.
Why doesn't the app include international?! The mobile site has broken experiences which won't be addressed if the focus is on the US app improvements, e.g., hamburger menu inactive on class view). Please don't forget about your global customers!
I love being able to filter by region, instructor, and class type. I love being able to see how many classes I’ve taken, and have everything in one place. Barry’s is THE BEST!
Why is Beverly center its own category aside from LA studios? Having to go back every time to see one or the other is cumbersome and seems like an easy fix. Otherwise excellent education of scheduling app
This could literally be the worst app ever developed and it’d still be better than using the website and having to choose “United States” every five seconds. But it’s definitely not the worst app ever - I love Barry’s, Barry’s is god, Barry’s is perfect always.
I’ve been waiting for this for so long now, but it’s totally worth the wait. Best thing is being able to see a combined schedule for all SF studios at once! No more having to open multiple tabs in Safari! 🙌
Please add the spot number in the event title or notes when adding to your calendar. Also, would be great to have an Apple Watch app to use to check in and see your spot.
I have had the easiest time booking classes, everything is very straightforward, I do wish a feature would be added to see what classes my friends are taking to add easily. Appreciate how easy everything is !! Two thumbs up :)
Great start. Feedback for a better user experience include 1) writing a personal review of the instructor after taking a class— not a public review just a personal one to know whether to book them in the future or not. 2) filtering classes by spot type/Double Floor so any classes without DF spot won’t appear in the schedule.
Very exciting & intimidating at the same time. Only means it’s going to be awesome!!! Can’t say more good things about the company. The energy exchange in the red room is unparalleled to any other experience out there. Great for self challenge with any goals.
Barry’s has been nothing short of a blessing for my health and fitness. I have dropped over 20lbs since joining the Barry’s family. I really appreciate Sean, Kate, Joe, and Ari for helping me with my fitness journey.
The Barry’s app is a best-in-class fitness app. So easy to add and manage my classes, never had any issues. It just works, and it’s very intuitive. Well done devs!
Good app. However, the way the smoothie ordering page is built out, I can’t apply my free Academy smoothie with the add on of vegan powder. As soon as I add vegan protein powder, a charge appears for the whole smoothie. I remove the powder and it’s free. I’m vegan, so this is pretty annoying. Happy to pay the $1
Only a couple things missing here - first is Apple Pay as a payment method, if you add that I’d upgrade to 5 stars. Another thing I would like but secondary, is the ability to add a calendar event for the reservation to Google Calendar.
Rhonda Hunt is my inspiration!! I love her classes and know that if she can be a strong as she is after 3 kids so can I. She is every woman in Westchester's role model. Thank you Rhonda Hunt. And no one else is tough and as nice in such a brilliant way.
The ease of use of this app makes it really hard to stall a decision to work out. It also makes it super easy to follow through on a fleeting impulse to work out.
It’s one of my most frequently used apps—-but how come you can’t waitlist specifically for double floor? That would be so useful for us DFers. Please add this feature! 🙏
This app was great until the “my classes” portion of the app stopped working. Mine constantly tells me “oops! Something isn’t right” and there’s no tech support available. The studios don’t have any idea how to fix this issue. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the app with no success. Please fix this bug!! We pay way too much for these classes to have an app that doesn’t even work.
My home studio is LA but there's no way in app to switch to another country to book when traveling despite it being possible on the website....pls fix.
I already don’t like the website for Barry’s so I downloaded the app. The time of the class when I’m on the daily schedule does not appear as it seems that it’s supposed to per the screenshots on the AppStore page
