Massage Envy

The app is alright, but lacks a lot of the functionality that I would have hoped for. Specifically, this is an app that most people are going to make use of after they join Massage Envy as a customer. So, I would presume that booking an appointment is of primary interest. However, the problem with the app is that it walks you through what service and the options you’d like to only tell you what’s available at the very end. Then, if you’d like to try a different location, you need to walk through the same process selecting the service and options you’d like. Also, if you are a paying member, it doesn’t seem to recognize your lower / free (already paid for) rate. I’d think that if there was an option to select multiple locations or locations within a specified range, that would be extremely useful for most clients, but by that same token, it’d also show clients that there’s actually very little availability for services at peak times. That said, the app does help you make an appointment as long as YOU are flexible with your time, which is exactly the reason that it doesn’t work well for me. I have to plan a few days to a week before my appointment to get the time I’d like, but, so often, that changes with my work and family schedule. Please do better Massage Envy.

The app seems to work pretty smoothly. The actual selection process is less than ideal however. If you have been going to the same ME for years and know exactly who you want to see, you should be able to select a particular therapist FROM THE BEGINNING of your appointment request, instead of having to go through the whole process of “what kind of pressure do you like” or “what’s bothering you”. Yes, you should specify certain things beforehand (like if you’re pregnant, have cancer, or want a hot stone) in case your therapist of choice does not perform those services, but if you know who you want, that should be it. Also, not every ME offers the same services (for example, NYS does not allow therapists to perform exfoliating foot treatments), so that makes it seem like no LMTs are ever available if you select that service before trying to book. The whole online booking needs tweaking. I also have noticed a few connection issues with the app “having trouble connecting to Massage Envy servers”.

The app worked well enough for me to book appointments before I became a member. For some reason once I signed up for membership the app stopped working for me. If does not show my upcoming appointments. Rarely does it give the option to book appointments. I pick a day along with all of my specifications and then it’s hit or miss. One day I had almost scheduled with the therapist and time frame of choice and when I went to select it, it gave an error message. I had a second preferment in mind of availability that I’d seen on the site and just decided to call instead to eliminate any problems. I followed up with a phone call to my location and found out the availability on the app was not reflective of the actual availability of the therapists. I know when I signed up for membership, I could not see my future appointments. This is frustrating because I have the one therapist that is a must for me and I’d scheduled with her for months in advance. I didn’t complain as long as the system kept my appointments locked in. I figured the app would reflect any future activity. Well that’s not the case. I cannot do anything on this app. It’s very frustrating because if it work as intended it would save me a lot of time.

I will often give good reviews of restaurants, retailers etc...almost never bad reviews. But I’m hoping that the developers actually read these and value the input. First of all, I’m stunned that they show an overall 4.7 (out of 5) rating because almost every one I’ve read from the past year + is pretty negative. As for me, hope springs eternal! So after visiting my local ME, scheduling a couple of appointments and verifying they had my correct email address, I decided to take another run at getting the app to work. Knowing that it had just undergone a number of updates, I decided my best bet was to delete the existing app on my phone and download the new version. But no. I tried creating a new profile, only to be told that my data already existed in the system. So I tried logging in instead, only to be told that my email address was not registered. This after just having received an email from ME confirming my appointments. It would seem that the app and the software each franchise uses are not on speaking terms. I would estimate that this is the fourth or fifth time I’ve done the above futile exercise, and I’m officially giving up. Life is short...

This app works well enough for booking appointments but that’s all it’s good for. I was a member in Florida but I live in Louisiana so I cancelled my Florida membership and signed up in my home town. I’ve called Massage Envy as well as attempted “app support”, which there is none of, and I’m still not able to see any of my member benefits. My fiancé uses the app all the time and he can see how many prepaids he has available as well as an entire list of all his previous massages, even though he never actually books through the app. I’ve been booking through this app for a year now and I can’t see a single massage booked. It also still shows my Florida location as my primary. As stated, I’ve attempted to speak with managers and they’ve said they’ve adjusted everything in their system and it “should work now” but they’ve also said they have no idea whatsoever how the app works because it’s a third party or something and they receive no training on it. This is from a manager! It’s really frustrating. Minor, but frustrating. The app has literally one job and it has NEVER worked for me. What is even the point?!
