The app is good but the Apple Watch app is the worst
The Apple Watch itself doesn’t even show the yoga exercises it only comes to life if you open something on iPhone that is a very poor limitation of the app and discourages me from using it . I will delete the app for Apple Watch because seriously it’s pointless
Cosmic
Obviously fantastic!
10 plus years of enjoying this app
I’ve used this app for 10 plus years, and have yet to find a yoga app or program that’s better.
UPDATED review 2025
I needed help getting access to my account again but got no response from customer service. I have no access to the background I'd unlocked, my practise history, or my karma points. Shameful lack of response to a paid customer. 2 stars. Caveat Emptor. ************* Pocket yoga is great! It's not a subscription app, which is a BIG plus in my book. There are three sets of routines, each with a beginner, intermediate, and advanced level, and you can practise 30 min, 45 min, or an hour on each. There is also a sun salutation routine with two versions. I'd gladly pay for in app purchases if they would make new routines, as all three sets of routines are similar, with slight variations. Would also like to see shorter sets, say, 15 minutes. Kudos to the developers for making such a reliable app without charging a subscription!
Go to for daily practice
My go-to app for daily practice
Pocket KongFu Pls!
This was near perfect, please give us a pocket kongfu too, with a completion bonus of gunfu lessons, and martial arts are not isolated so there will be so much to learn, and with a data non collection policy pls pls pls pls pocket kongfu too please!
The app that got me going
It’s got HIIT style, traditional Sun Salutations, and the poses of the day… it’s a winner.
Hard to Use
The app should allow you to watch the workout before you do it without counting it as a completed workout. Trying to learn poses on my phone is pretty difficult. Might be better on a tablet? They should do a better job explaining each pose. They have a section showing all the poses with written instructions but it’s not suitable for a beginner. If they make this more newbie friendly it’d probably be a good app. As is I can see people injuring themselves or just giving up altogether. I had another issue signing in, which it asked me to do to make the app better? Well I can’t. I might end up returning this app which is a great price, but it might be worth it to spend more or even just watch something on YouTube.
Only five modules
If I had known there were only five modules, I may have not bought it. At least should tell us before purchasing. I’ve not used it yet but looks simple which I love. However, who cares about background styles. I’d rather have the ability to create my own modules by selecting poses myself. I hope you all will come out with that!:)
LOVE this app!!
I have been using / my husband and I have been using this app for many years on & off! He turned me on to it. I love that depending on how I’m feeling I can decide what practice I need. If it’s been a while I do a beginning 30 minute to unwind. But, u best believe by the time I got to the 45 minute intermediate I was PUSHED & it feels so great! The goal this summer is to get to advanced 60 minute. We’ll see? No stress. I am 48, a dancer by trade my whole life & a choreographer now but have even told my mother who is 70 about it as well. Do it at ur pace. It’s awesome!! Thank you!!
Best yoga app by far
I’ve been using this app since 2019, might even be before that. Its genius is in its simplicity and streamlined user experience. It doesn’t bombard you with loads of commercialized iterations, it sticks to the fundamentals. Credit to the developer who has been supporting this app year after year and making it a consistently usable and valuable apps. Many thanks!
Great little no frills app
Great Little no frills app to do some quick yoga and learn sun salutation sequences
Can’t Create Own Workout
You would think that an app as old as this one would’ve by now added the ability to form your own workout. It’s not a difficult feature to add.
Great App! Need a Vibration feature
This app is great for beginners and intermediates! I just wanted to share a feedback - when I’m wearing an Apple Watch, I would like it to vibrate with each pose change during yoga sessions. As I am deaf, it’s hard for me to constantly look at the screen on my phone or TV. I wasn’t sure how to time the pose changes, like counting down to zero. I would love to have a vibration feature on the watch app to signal when to change poses. This could be added as an option in the setting. This feature would be helpful for the deaf and hard of hearing user!!
Simple and Effective App
Great selection of workouts, easy to use, and fun little unlockables. The yoga pose dictionary is great. The app is so easy to use, and it’s not distracting or flashy. Love it!
Way more results than I expected
I started doing sun salutation a a way to improve my flexibility that was causing an issue in my hip and legs and that was the primary reason for using this prior to walking to rehab my leg. I figured once that was taken care of I would start working on my upper body however this short 8 1/2 minute routine is easy enough to do multiple times per week and after only four months people were commenting on my upper body development fast-forward a year and a half and my upper body has never looked this good I am 60 years old and have been exercising including weightlifting fairly intensely since I was 14 years old. The difference is it’s easy enough to do consistently over a long period of time and some of the things you think you’re doing that are just stretching are actually isometric exercises that are definitely building muscle give it a try for three months plus times per week I think you’ll be surprised at the results I was
Thanks

Classic app
Been using pocket yoga for 10 years now and have built my discipline and practice through the accessibility of yoga through this app. Thanks to this app I have been able to continue my practice while traveling abroad, and spark my interest for other practices in different apps and also with studios and communities across the world. Thank you pocket yoga!
POCKET Yoga? More Like PERFECT Yoga!
This app is well worth the price. The soothing instructional voice couldn't describe the poses any better. You can tweak the settings to your liking very easily. The visual part of the poses really help one out when confused. The breathing instruction could slow down a little but it's as accurate as it can be. Best of all, it is a portable teacher! Overall a great exercise and app for your phone :)
Yoga teacher app is better
Unlike the “yoga teacher” app. I’m unable to create sequences. I assumed the paid version would keep the option and freedom. I paid 2.99 to look at other la sequences. Hard pass
Keeps saying no Internet connection and won’t connect to Spotify
This app used to work so much better but now I get errors and deleting and reinstalling doesn’t work. Waste of time for a once helpful app.
Still Using It
I’ve been using this app for years and still enjoy the workouts. I recommend Pocket Yoga to anyone who wants to enjoy the benefits of yoga.
By far best fitness app ever
I love this app. Ive been using this app for many many years. Im still no yogi pro, but its the only app that not only gets me fit physically but also mentally. Anyone wanting to do yoga hut hate attending classes, or can’t afford it, or even just curious about yoga this app is for you. Seriously try it. I pick my own music for my courses and i swear I’m transformed into another world. Thank you.
Been using this app since 2011
I loved this app back in the day, super easy to follow and the music was so calming. I loved all the different salutations. I just wish they didn’t get rid of the original woman’s voice. It was so relaxing and put me at such peace. It was so nostalgic too. Please bring her back 🥺
Great but the voice goes away
I love this app. But I get a phone call in the middle of my work out or have to pause for whatever reason and my phone locks the voice stops working when I start my workout back up again. So I have to watch her while I’m trying to keep up. Just a minor thing but it does get annoying only getting partial credit when I have to close the app and skip to where I left off.
My Partner in Life App
I haven’t had this app for so many years. I literally can’t remember when I first downloaded it but across the country traveling, and through all my walks and journeys through life, I could always find a device to download my Pocket Yoga app and resent myself and restart my practice. I truly appreciate everyone who helped to develop this app
I’m frustrated
Do not believe the recent ratings that are five star. So my mom and I got this app because my instructor for one of my activities recommended doing yoga for body awareness. We thought this was a great deal. But this is not yoga. They do have explanations for these poses that you do and a little person to show you how to do it but… in yoga, poses are held for at least a couple of seconds, and in a real class the instructor would not go that fast. And this is for even the beginner levels. I would appreciate if the developers could fix the app.
Best find of 2023!
This is the perfect yoga app! High quality classes: 3 choices of class length, 3 choices of yoga style. Clear informative visuals. Calm clear steady voice. No-nonsense. Clear instructions. Perfect pacing. Warm ups and cool down. No more wasting time searching YouTube channels and selecting videos. No more driving to classes, showing up late, trying to be consistent. If you are searching for a way to do yoga consistently, with minimal effort, minimal cost, you’ve found it! One fee for the app! Then you have yoga anywhere at any time! Thank you!
My favorite way to do yoga on the road
I think this app is so convenient. I don’t think the beginner level should get so much harder just bc you extend it from 30 minutes to 45.
Sexist
The app still sounds like an unrealistic female cartoon character. Bring back the normal-sounding woman.
Love this app, great relaxer and very decompressing
Wish they would add more workouts
This app is PERFECT.
Thank you. I love the breath cues, the visuals, the voice is pleasant to listen to, and the one time payment is very much appreciated. Perfect.
Use it every day
Great way to start your day!
Is Blind Accessible
I am blind and enjoy how well the poses are described.
Diversity Needed ASAP!
I recently purchased this app, and I love the features. However, I have a huge concern with the fact that the animated person is a Caucasian-appearing person. PLEASE create an option to choose the skin tone of the person. It doesn’t seem like a big deal, but it is upsetting and an easy fix (think of the emoji color options). I hope the app creators read this comment and get an update with this feature very soon!!! edit: my comment hasn’t affected any change yet, but please update the app with skin tone options ASAP. Edit (12/27/21) still no diverse skin tone options for this app. PLEASE create more options, this is the bare minimum considering yoga was originated in INDIA! Do better! Edit (2/27/23) Still no diverse skin option, and I have now commented on instagram and emailed. Please add diverse skin tone options!
I have been using this app since I was 17
I am not a professional by any means, but I have used this app off and on since I was 17 for yoga / stretching practice anytime my physical fitness needs a boost.
Great app needs more exercises
Add more exercises and this is perfect
Way to fast for the average beginner
No way to slow it down so when it goes inhale exhale inhal exhale and does 4 different poses in 10 seconds it’s hard to follow along. Needs to be a way to do it at half speed at least geez
No subscription and a solid yoga workout makes this a winner
I am one of the people that actually prefers the animations over real people. That could be fine tuned But for the one time price it’s a winner
Sorry I paid for this
Very Very repetitive. Didn’t keep track of my “karma Points” correctly. Very little variety when moving from beginner level to intermediate. Not safe for a beginner at all. Sorry I paid for this.
Too Busy to Get to a Studio
I love yoga. I've wanted to restart my practice for so long. But life gets in the way of getting to had this app for years. Love it!regular Vinyasa classes. Pocket Yoga made it possible to build up my practice again. Fabulous!
Helps my back
I had my spine fused but work overseas this app keeps me flexible and makes me sweat.
Yoga
So good for your body and mind. Practice when you can to relieve your stress. This app is what you want!
Yoga on the go
I love this app! I do it in the comfort of my living room and take it with on trips. There are three levels. Yoga has been a life saver for my back and this app makes it so easy!
I use it 3-4 times every week
Great!
Super Yoga App!
Been using Pocket Yoga for years. Great app at a great price. The support is always quick and responsive. I won’t say it’s a replacement for in-studio instruction, but it’s certainly has it’s place for daily home routines and a resource when you travel. Practice when we’re out camping in the RV too. Highly recommend getting this app!
Morning companion
We’ve been using this app for years and have loved it. Over this time there have been numerous slight, thoughtful, changes in the routines that we’ve quickly grown accustomed to and have appreciated.
Best yoga app
I have had this app for 12 years and I always turn to it when I need to get my daily stretches and yoga. I love this app and these exercises better than any other exercise app I’ve ever had.
The p e r f e c t Yoga app!
This is so simply but powerful and easy to follow… A great set with 3 levels of 3 different practices you can customize from beginner to advanced. There are options to customize other settings too like syncing with your Apple watch to control the app and flow from it! Like I said literally the perfect yoga app! A must try! 🧘🧘♀️🧘♂️🤍
