Contact Plankk Studio Support

The workouts are great overall. Jon Halloran is my fave instructor. The issue is that the app itself is one of the worst apps on my phone. I have a newer iPhone, but it is sluggish and crashes. The way the app is laid out is bizarre and not intuitive. There’s an emphasis on live classes, but the real value for me is in the library of classes I can access on demand… when I can find the one I want. When I’ve signed up for live classes, it doesn’t notify me when the are starting and doesn’t integrate with my calendar, so I forget about them. Also, as some other reviewers have pointed out, the way the female instructors are depicted makes them look more like porn stars than fitness instructors. It’s uncomfortable at best; not a tasteful or respectable approach IMHO. For these reasons I would not recommend Plankk and I’ve switched over to Peloton myself.

Have to say that many of the videos seem to be designed by a porn studio rather than a fitness one. The highlighted trainers are generally highly manicured women showing off cleavage in skin tight clothing, performing exercises without any background music as the camera zooms in and out, sometimes on parts of them that are not relevant for the exercise (lunges zoomed in on their face and chest for example). Some of the thumbnails for classes highlight the name of the instructor before the type of class and show pictures truly suggestive of porn websites, such as an oiled woman wearing a bikini and arching her back over a bench that she is lying on. I haven’t seen a single black trainer on there (and if they are on there they’re certainly not being highlighted). Definitely not designed for women.

The first week I tried use this app there were so many glitches that I was never able to complete a workout. When I went to unsubscribe so as not to be charged for the month the app wasn’t on my subscriptions under my Apple account. I presumed that maybe because the app was such a huge failure that it hadn’t properly subscribed me either. It turns out that the only thing that works on this app is how it charged me for a subscription that I cannot even use. Please someone take care of this, I do not want to be billed further and I can’t unsubscribe from this app because it doesn’t appear where it should on my subscriptions! And refund now. Horrible experience!
