Anytime Fitness Reviews

AnytimeFitness has some nice features but is not super intuitive. For example I was manually moving through exercises only to accidentally find out that I could swipe through them. I also didn’t know you had to swipe to end the workout. There was a message but it disappeared before I could read it. Most important failure is the lack of support for the Apple Watch on an app that is designed for the Apple platform. This just seems cheap and lazy.

Updating my original review and downgrading. They’ve been promising support for years and still don’t have a reasonable integration with the Apple Watch. If I want to use some of the data, I have to download another app in addition to the workout and main app. I don’t need three apps for my gym. The inattention yo member requests and sloppy implementation don’t communicate to me that they value me as a member. Time to look elsewhere

I’ve been using this for 7 months since I started Anytime & it’s never worked 100% correctly for tracking visits. Filter function doubles some days, skips some days - then says I’m there at a time or date I know I wasn’t.
I know since Jan I’ve been to gym 91 times b/c I’m doing a 100 visit challenge. Gym tracked it for me. By AnytimeFitness though, it’s counting 47 visits when I filter Jan 2018 thru today. (Annoying that it defaults to 2002 & you have to scroll all the way down to 2018)!

Also can’t save settings so always changing it to rule out tanning & limit to one visit per day. But since half the time it doesn’t work right guess it doesn’t matter. Don’t know why I’m still keeping it.

AnytimeFitness really isn’t that good. Doesn’t seem o sync correctly with the MyFitnessPal or MapMyFitness apps that it claims to be compatible with. Also pretty terrible that it doesn’t seem to be compatible with an Apple Watch. I’ve gone the route with their tech support people and after 2 weeks got nowhere. About the only thing AnytimeFitness does seem to sync is the number of visits to the gym I’ve made. Won’t sync workouts. Would be nice to even have a force sync option so goals got updated, but guess I won’t hold my breath on that.

**Updated: app has stopped syncing workouts again. Definitely not an app to rely on for much of anything. Use other trackers if you really want to monitor your progress.

I have forgot my Door FOB for once in my gym time and wish you guys would create a digital FOB in AnytimeFitness so that way if someone forgets there Actual FOB and don’t have the time to go back to get it the member has access to the gym by Phone. I still can’t believe I left at home. This would be perfect for those going to the gym before work and they forget to take it with them. Especially since I travel my public transport.

Not going to complain, AnytimeFitness does what I need it to do. But if you want to make it better, allow us users to be able to have a saved gym we go to the most that way we don’t have to search it up every time we want to schedule a gym time. Every time I go to select a gym time, the map puts me in a state I don’t even live in. Create a faster/easier way by saving the gym we usually go to and maybe even save the gym time we usually select. Thanks !

AnytimeFitness has worked great for me from day one. All I really use it for is my check ins. My only suggestion would be to have the ability to see your payment history and to be able to email/print it out like you can with the check ins. It would make things super easy for people who turn those in for incentive purposes through work/insurance or whatever the case is. I can’t always get ahold of someone at the gym for my payment history print out.

AnytimeFitness gets me exclusive access to my AF coach. She sends me customized workouts several times a week that are awesome! Total body workouts that kick my rear-end! AnytimeFitness allows my coach to see that I’m actually doing what we agreed on and hold me accountable for it. Just what I need! AnytimeFitness and my coach have completely changed everything for me and my fitness routine at a fraction of what all these online Personal Trainers charge AND I get to see her in the gym too!

AnytimeFitness is only 10% more convenient to use than just opening my browser to book an appointment to work out. It continually selects a gym 700 miles from my home gym even though I have my address in my profile and allow location use. It also sometimes tells me I can’t book at a certain time because the gym I pick isn’t my “home gym”, even though it’s near me and is the one I signed up at. 👎

When this happens I just have to open a browser to book. Please fix this bug... it’s frustrating.

I have used AnytimeFitness for 2 weeks and it is helping me stay on track with fitness goals. The “Workout” app has tons of choices to help you plan and has a nice way to schedule your plans for many weeks out. Good videos clips for each exercise as some of these routines are new to me. I rate it 4.5 overall, but will give it a 5 since it’s free!

I joined a 3 week challenge at my local gym and being able to chat with the trainer has been super helpful.

She has been super supportive and pushes me if I didn’t get my exercise in for the day. I’m already down 2lbs!

The group I work out with is also fun but it would be great if we could also be connected together like I am with my trainer.

I have had stints with going to gyms my whole life. The apps they have are basic stuff like booking, some workouts, and mostly marketing junk. This is different, better, and I didn’t even know this was a thing until I joined the challenge.

AnytimeFitness doesn’t really work. I have 3 visits but still zero month. AnytimeFitness has promise but there is so much needed to be improved on it. I like the feature of messaging my coach but I can’t even schedule an appointment like it offers. To many broken pieces. I’ll wait and see if the even reads this and reach out to me.

App is ok. Not much to do with it. Tracks visits and helps find a location. One suggestion I would add is the ability to see how many people have logged in at the gym at any given time. I can’t tell you how many times I pull into the parking lot and leave because of no free machines. I end up having to go back later. Just a thought so we could all see how busy the gym is and if we want to go or wait..

Seeing a lot of the comments from a good year ago… Talking about functionality etc.… I really hope and pray they have addressed a lot of those requests and concerns in AnytimeFitness … Going to give it three stars for the benefit of the doubt right now… Truly hoping to give it five in a month after I have used it for a minute.

AnytimeFitness has been good up until now. I just noticed that not all my visits are being logged on that app yet I keyed in because otherwise the door wouldn’t have let me in. It only started with last month and didn’t log in my visit from today. Don’t know what that’s about.

Without tracking anything from my Apple Watch this is basically useless other than I can stay accountable for how many times I’m visiting the gym. It does not even sync with MapMyRun the way it is with My Fitness Pal all of the data is incorrect.

AnytimeFitness helps keep me on track and in contact with my coach. 6 pounds down so far! Otherwise I would skip a workout so easily and a week flys by without doing a thing.

- should show number of workouts/visits by week (ideally with a Home Screen widget)
- should be able to share workout frequency with friends for motivation
- should be a replacement for a physical key fob

I used to live in Nevada and moved to South Carolina. When i schedule a workout i get a text reminder still set in Nevada time zone. I don’t know how to fix this and neither do the personnel at my local gym. It would be nice if they would fix the issues at hand. After over hearing another person at the gym today I see I’m not the only one who is having issues with AnytimeFitness. Please fix the bugs guys.

How can you not reserve time at your local gym on AnytimeFitness ? Furthermore, when it takes you to a browser to book time, it automatically puts you in MN regardless of where your home gym is located. Then, you have to put in your key fob number every time. If you’re going to have COVID-19 plans in place, at least make the electronic access easy. Get with the times.

There’s been a bug change within the last week with AnytimeFitness as well as its linked app, the workout app. I can no longer access anything on either app which is extremely frustrating. I can’t even text my trainer. I can’t see the workouts that I set up. Extremely disappointed with these apps.

Although it has a pleasant dashboard, it seems it is lacking quite a bit. First of all, the syncing with MyFitnessPal and MapMyFitness is not happening. Secondly, it gives you options to sync different devices, yet it kicks me to MFP or MMF, which show I am logged into Garmin Connect. Basically the esthetics of AnytimeFitness need to be fixed. Good idea, but let’s streamline getting it to work properly with all options.

I think it would be nice to open AnytimeFitness and see how many people are currently at my home gym so I can plan accordingly and get a schedule planned with less people.

It would be better if AnytimeFitness could connect to more devices such as an Apple Watch. The apple watch tracks your activity and would be more convenient to have the information automatically upload from the Apple Watch to AnytimeFitness .
