What users complain about in PushPress Members

Useless

My gym went to this app a week ago and it’s useless. First it made me 2 accounts, I couldn’t delete one, had to call the gym and spend 20 minutes on the phone so they could do it. My profile needed updating, tried 5 times, but it would never save. They provide a barcode to scan in the gym, still doesn’t work, have to scan in on the gyms iPad. Not sure what the “workouts” tab is for can’t record anything. You open it and you get an emoji laughing at you. Then this morning all I get is a screen with the wheels turning. The worst of all this is the app is mandatory to belong to the gym - it is the only way they’ll accept our monthly payments. Unfortunately I live in a small town, so there isn’t another within 25 miles. It looks like I’ll be taking up walking/running and working out at home. Apple really needs to add negative stars, this app definitely deserves a few negative stars!

Gray and black screens of death

If you thought the random gray screens were annoying, don’t worry, there are random black screens now! If you thought it was just you, it isn’t. Just ask your fellow gym mates!

App keeps resetting

The app pushes updates every few months. Which is fine. However every time this app updates, users must log back in and all their settings are lost. For instance I like to sync the gym reservation with my calendar. This app allows for that feature. But after every update I need to reset this up. Frustrating.

Terrible

Clunky UI, hard to use settings. Forget trying to upload a profile picture! Terrible app!

Dark mode broken

Blinding white screen the dark mode on startup. Doesn’t follow system settings.

Add notification for lack of credits for a class if trying to sign up.

I appreciate that app is improving through incremental updates. I would like to see a notification or pop up if you are signing up for a class and you are out of credits. Nothing happens so it takes a bit of investigation to figure out why.

Lots of glitches

Lots of app issues. Can never upload profile picture. Often freezes. Just really not user friendly. I cannot for the life of me upload a photo in the app

Never works

Our gym switched from wodify to push press and it is the worst… it doesn’t work more than it does work. There are glitches constantly… nothing ever loads and says it’s not there when I know we have workouts programmed… would prefer to leave no stars. Engineering department needs to be fired

Terrible app

Always sign me out after some time so bad

Brick

Haven’t been able to use the app properly for weeks since update. Unable to check in for classes, see workouts, manage profile.

Worst I’ve Been Forced to Use 😣

I am not sure how this app has such good reviews - I constantly have issues with it and have used so many other platforms that are far more functional and superior. I can almost never find my lifting history without substantial digging, and isn’t that the primary point? Besides that it is a chore to even update my profile image as it automatically zooms in on certain images and there is no way for me to make adjustments to where it’s zooming. The image I am trying to update it to currently keep zooming in on the sunglasses hanging off the collar of my shirt. I’ve tried cropping, framing, adjusting the image otherwise, to no avail! This has been the case every time I attempt to update my profile image, and today - the repeated frustration is what finally led me to this review 😖.

Always crashing

I’m a member only because my gym uses this app. This app crashes every single night. Always get the I’m sorry we can’t get your data. Every single day. Non stop. It’s irritating. Update the server or get a new company.

Good app… room for improvement

Sometimes check ins do not work. Need to check in multiple times before it accepted. Would be great if you could select workouts as favourites and save for later.

Crashes weekly

App is nice but it crashes weekly and never gets resolved.

Glitchy

When I first was using Push Press it was amazing. It would open without issue and I could sign up for classes and record my workouts seamlessly. So I know that when it’s telling me there’s an error or it won’t open when I go to the app, there’s something amiss. I really hope you can fix the glitches and bring back the 5 star app this once was.

Current version working poorly re: benchmarks and calculator

The app works fine for class sign up and seeing the work out but logging results is much more frustrating than it used to be. A few examples: (1) there is a great calculator feature you can look at during a workout that takes your 1 rep max and gives you various % effort wts - doesn’t work at all anymore. (2) weird random numbers get picked up and added to benchmarks, ie had a work out with no deadlifts and at the end recorded 3 sets and 460 reps - and benchmarking said I did 3 x 460 lb deadlift. Please, please fix this!!

Unable to see workouts

After this last update the app is worse than ever. It’s always been glitchy but now it’s pretty much useless. When you hit the arrow to select a workout to see the programming it just doesn’t work. It’s as if the drop down menu isn’t clickable at all.

So many issues

Not a fan. Search does work. Loading times are slow. Can’t seem to link previous 1rm despite uploading the file. :-(

Always crashing

I wish my gym did not make me use this awful app.

Buggy

Since the latest update my membership panel keeps going to grey and I can’t see how many classes I have left in order to know how many I can book. I’ve reinstalled and it gets restored sometimes only for it to happen again.

It’s not good, but it is bad

I feel like all the components are there, but just in weird places. It takes too many button pushes and searching to find out 1RM’s and percentages and stuff. I wish it would automatically have your 1RM in there when you click the calculator - instead I have to search for my 1RM on the lift then go back to the calculator to see percentages. Honestly, if it was set up more like Wodify it would be way better.

Unable to Remove Personal Billing Information

As a gym member, I find it concerning that I do not have permission to remove my personal payment information. I think it is unreasonable that I must go through the gym staff to have my personal billing information removed from the system.

Works well enough, privacy policy?

The app is pretty straightforward and does what it says on tin. One annoying thing, the calendar integration forces to give read/write access to the iOS calendar, instead of read only. I’d really appreciate a write-only option, I am not sure why an app designed to book gym classes needs to syphon the content of my calendar.

Terrible

Always crashes. Won’t let me view the workouts that are posted. Sometimes won’t even let me sign into classes. Very buggy.

App has feature deficits

This app doesn’t allow you to import / export logs like other apps do (Sugar WOD), you cannot enter a previous workout entry w a date other than the day it is, there is no way to send them messages to report bugs/issues, their app doesn’t log entries into workouts even though they were setup correctly when added ( so I am missing PR’s and history to track my gains/improvements on baselines or named wods. This app is sub par.

Wodify > Push Press

Our (CrossFit) gym recently switched from Wodify to PushPress and I wish it hadn’t. PushPress clunkier all around: (1) can’t see the workout from the schedule, need to go to the schedule tab. (2) For weightlifting - doesn’t calculate, e.g. 1RMs from 5RMs. (3) Results annoying to access -Multiple clicks to get to the “calculator” section of the results - not intuitive at all. Can’t click from a particular result (e.g. today’s deadlift to get to all deadlift results) Disappointed and would not recommend

Every time an annoyance is fixed, another arises

This app has been solid all around but, as it improves, I’ve noticed a pattern: every time an annoyance is fixed, another comes up. It’s like whack-a-mole. Recently they fixed the unintuitive navigation but, here are my current annoyances: 1) the app needs full permissions to add reservations to my calendar. There IS an Add Events Only calendar permission (which I have enabled), but the app is still not able to add to my calendar. This used to work previously. 2) the workout tab always defaults to the last day you looked at it. If you are someone who looks at the app everyday, it gets pretty tiresome – especially when you have to move in between weeks (as only one is displayed at a time). Ideally, this should default to “today” (like it used to), or at least have this as a preference setting. 3) logging results requires you to memorize the rep scheme and percentages/weights. The text boxes for reps should auto-populate and the input boxes for weight should have placeholders with the percentages (or even, ideally, auto-populate with weight according to the percentages from the max you put into the workout calculator). The three above are the most disruptive, but here are other smaller ones: 4) the calculator built into the workout screen crashes frequently — it will not display and a translucent overlay overtakes the screen without letting you exit or scroll, you HAVE to close the app. 5) the app refreshes every time you switch apps — not just when you close the app or when you lock your screen. If you switch apps, even for a second, it will fully reload the screen you’re at and place you at the top. Imho, content should only reload if you pull down on the screen, switch tabs in the app, or close the app. I understand some of this is nitpicking, but encountering these everyday becomes frustrating. I hope this is constructive and can lead to a better overall app. Thanks!

Would be great but missing key feature

If you could track your weight benchmarks on here like on sugarWOD this app would be perfect.

Can’t sign in or schedule classes

After the update, The app wouldn’t let me book my classes, so I uninstalled and reinstalled and now it won’t let me log back in and when I try to recover my password it won’t even send me a recovery email.

Can’t Login

Not sure why, but I have reset my password multiple times and I am still unable to log into the app. Not 100% if this is a local or a general issue but please please fix this, as my gym uses this app daily.

One super annoying flaw

PLEASE make it stop refreshing the workout and going to the top whenever you leave the app.

Fix your bugs!

Every time there’s an update you have to delete and re install, I’ve had to do this twice and it’s still not working after the last update. Fix it!

Keeps crashing

Been crashing for a while now. Happens when I select a class to see who has signed up. All the time. Everyday.

Way to many bugs

The app keeps crashing. It is now hard to even book a class since the app always crashes before getting to the relevant page. Way to many bugs. I don’t recommend it.

Why doesn't push press or ptrain have dark mode?

As an early morning riser for workouts checking into class or the workout programmed is tough on the eyes with a white background. If the phone is in Dark mode it would be nice for the app to follow suit. Any chances for a fix on this issue?

Crash crash crash

This app was okay a while ago but lately it crashes with every other tap selection. I have to launch it four or five times just to be able to reserve one class.

still crashes

needs to be deleted and reinstalled after every new update

AppIs crashing

My app is crashing today all of a sudden. No way to book my classes now. Hope it is fixed soon.

App crashes after 2 weeks

After 2 weeks the app won’t open, have to delete and reinstall is the only fix I repeat this process every 2-3 weeks, no workaround iPhone 13 Pro in perfect working order.

Requires deletion/reinstall with every upgrade

You’d think after months of this issues they’d get their app developers to fix the bug. Every time they roll out an update, the app needs to be deleted off my phone and reinstalled. Unfortunately the gym decides which app they use or else I would not be using it. GET YOUR GAME TOGETHER ,YOU CLOWNS 🤡🤡🤡
