Very Unreliable Notifications

I actually really dislike this new app. It’s filled with glitches. The most annoying one is that the reminders to book or class start reminders do not always work so I’ve been consistently missing the window to book a class and having to waitlist which is VERY upsetting or not remembering to cancel in time. The one and only reason why Equinox works for me is because I can schedule my workouts ahead of time and I’ve only joined because of the classes so this new app has been crippling my schedule. There are several other weird things happening with it but while they’re strange they don’t actually affect the functionality of the app as much as the missed notifications do.
I really hope it gets fixed quickly because as is it’s pretty useless and it’ll certainly be a huge problem moving forward. I have to say I’m really surprised they put it out with all the many issues it has rather than solving the bugs first. I’m pretty upset about it. I get it that it has added functionalities and it looks cool but if it doesn’t work for what it is really needed (booking and cancelling classes) then it’s pretty useless. So please fix it or bring back the old app that actually worked!

Poor Value, Peloton Better and Cheaper

I had high hopes for Equinox Plus when I subscribed to their annual membership, but unfortunately, my experience has been far from satisfactory. Compared to other fitness platforms like Peloton, Equinox Plus lacks in several key areas.

Firstly, the class selection on Equinox Plus pales in comparison to Peloton. The variety and quality of classes offered are limited, leaving me feeling uninspired and restricted in my workout choices.

Secondly, the price of Equinox Plus is double that of Peloton, yet the value and quality of the service provided do not justify the premium cost. It's disheartening to pay more for a service that offers less in terms of content and features.

One of the most frustrating aspects of Equinox Plus is the inability to sort classes by instructor. This feature is essential for users like myself who have favorite instructors whose teaching styles we prefer. Without this functionality, navigating the platform becomes cumbersome and less enjoyable.

Overall, my experience with Equinox Plus has been disappointing. I had hoped for a premium fitness experience but instead found myself underwhelmed and dissatisfied. I cannot recommend Equinox Plus, especially when there are better options available at a fraction of the cost.

I hope the Equinox team takes note of these concerns and works towards improving their platform to better meet the expectations of their users.

Terrible update, doesn’t work

8.1.21. I'm beyond disappointed in this app update. They removed the best part which is the monthly calendar to get a visual of how many days you've worked out. Now the bar graph only shows classes, not personal training, Pilates or gym check-ins. And it's not even correct with that! Bring back the calendar view with the circles that shows ALL workout days, not only a class!

If you view the reviews by the most recent, 95% have only 1 or 2 stars since the update. And the developer response that's copied and pasted to all says to "...watch for exciting updates...". We don't want updates, this last one was crap and ruined the app! We want a fixed, usable app. You clearly messed it up with the last update because there was no UX taken into consideration. Go back to what it was, it was easier to read, better interface, better UX. Plus it seems you're "designing" for only the size of an iPhone 11. 🙄🙄
And I think I'm so upset because equinox hasn't acknowledged what a fail this was even though everyone liked it better before. I would love an email from equinox to everyone saying they know it was a big fail, it's broken, things aren't working on it, they hired a new web/app design company and they're re-doing it. Don't pretend this was an exciting update! It's horrible.
