Yoga STRETCH App Reviews

This ap would be even better if there was the option to flow left, then right through a few different poses.

Could be better if you could listen without earbuds through the iPhone speaker.

Im a yoga novice, I was looking through yoga apps for what seemed like FOREVER. When I came to this I said why not its only a buck. I LOVE IT!! The "instructor" was very thorough, and the pictures helped a lot. love the music they provide or you can add from your own playlist. just finished my first lesson, and I cant wait to get into the groove of YOGA :) I feel better already!

I just started to play around with this and I think some of the names dont really match up with the pictures they represent. Also are there more preloaded yoga sessions? Or just that one? Please more connecting, balance, and core strength poses! Be able to edit how many breaths you want to hold for each pose. Moreeeeeee!

For people with low vision who use VoiceOver, this app is totally inaccessible. No buttons are labeled. VoiceOver cant read the text descriptions of each posture. Yoga is great for people who are blind and low vision. Too bad tha twe cant use this app. Tried writing to the developer, but did not even get a reply. Too bad. :-(

I downloaded this app mainly for the design. After a few days of playing around with YS I would have to say although it lacks a little bit in audio it more then makes up for in usage. I made a morning and afternoon routine. I also created to playlists from my iPod that go with these routines. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting myself back into Yoga. A- overall.

I have been practicing yoga for few years. People , specially beginners, should be really careful using this application. There is no warm ups, no preparations, no primary moves leading to a pose , basically not doing "yoga"! Without preparations one can strech their muscles inappropriatly and can easily cause damage to joints and muscles. Not a practical program .

Very nice app!

I like the convenience especially being able to create my own length of session but you MUST fix its crashing!

U should really make or get an app for flexiblitiy. Id really something like that.

I am a yoga teacher and I bought this app mainly to help me learn some of the more difficult Sanskrit names for certain poses. So far, I have seen a few things that are inaccurate. One such example is the Virabradrasana II pose which is listed here as Danurasana. They list 3 different poses with this same name and it is not accurate at all. Also, the photo showing Virabradrasana I looks like Crescent Lunge pose to me. It is the little discrepancies that take away from this app. I have not used it to create a yoga practice, so I cant really comment on that part.

Its difficult to make out the exact body positions.........use a real person for pose demonstrations!!!

I am surprised how disappointed I am with this app. Its only $.99 but I expected a bit more. First I was surprised that there are only 35 poses. The screenshot of asanas, thats it! I start checking out the asanas and the second asana is wrong, theyre describing it as "Warrior I : Virabhadrasana I but its actually crescent moon, at least by their directions and the picture. I know this app isnt for me at this point but I move onto the third pose, described as "Warrior II : Dhanurasana" which is a contradiction in terms. Warrior II is virabhadrasana II and dhanurasana is something completely different. I can accept the limited asanas for $.99 but get the information right. I dont know what happened in the production of this app but its not even worth $.99.

I have never felt the need to review an app before now. This app is pretty useless especially for a yoga newbie and a novice alike. There is no warm up to the sessions and it does not flow. The instructor is very boring and does not help the student in their poses. Or encourage breathing which is the most important part of yoga. Spend the extra two dollars and get pocket yoga. If you really want a yoga app that will help you with your practice that is the perfect one.

This looks like the best yoga app available. Im glad I purchased this one first, because as I peruse the others, Im not tempted to buy. My favorite parts of this app: 1) Allows me to develop my own yoga routines. 2) The model is in silhouette (makes it wonderfully race-neutral). 3) I can use my own music (my faves are "The Lamas Chants" and "Splendor of Meditation: Most Relaxing Classical Indian Music"). 4) Great selection of poses. However, these little tweaks would make it perfect: 1) ADD A LUNGE POSE 2) ADD INSTRUCTORS ANNOUNCEMENT OF "PLANK" POSE!!! - I always miss this pose because the instructor doesnt announce it like she does the other poses. 3) Get a more mellow-voiced instructor - Someone who sounds like Eckhart Tolle would really set the right tone. 4) Allow independent adjustment of instructor voice and music - So I can make instructors voice a little louder and music a little softer, or vice versa 5) Allow deletion of any pose in a customized routine - Not just the last one added 6) Separate (R)/(L) versions, or just leave them side-neutral - I like to go from triangle to warrior on the right before shifting to triangle on the left. Yknow? These would make it perfect. Even make it worth an extra dollar or two. Thanks!

Would be really cool to be able to swipe from pose to pose instead of having to go back every time I want to change poses. Looking forward for the strength version for getting missing poses such as Chaturanga. Good job!

This app is great for travel - I love build your own workout so I can still get in 20 minutes of the poses that make my day start off right. Use your own music or enjoy the very relaxing choices that come with the app. Wish list...show names of poses on the pictures to make them easier to select, give me the ability to move the poses up or down in the custom workout without having to delete from the bottom up. Otherwise - excellent and a super buy for .99!!

Awesome APP and super helpful for my lower back and all around circulation

I really think this is a well done app. I love the portability of a yoga routine! I like the music options and my own music option as well. Wish there were more preloaded sessions though. Also wish I could move around pose orders once I select them. More poses? Other than that, great! Well worth .99!

For a paid APP, that just show some plain images and play some audio, it´s just very very BUGGY. Crashes a lot. For something it should help you relax, it just stress your day. For instance, try to set for an hour of exercises, you´ll realize it just don´t set. Another thing very stupid, in some poses when you have to stretch right and left sides individually, you´ll realize Yoga Stretch don´t make them equal time. In some, you stay 2 minutes in a position for left, and for the right just 30 seconds. What about the black shadow body shapes, in some poses, you can´t figure out where´s the leg stays, the arm. Oh hell. I´ll buy another app.
