Review summary

SwimtoFly is praised for its clear, structured swimming lessons that boost confidence and skill, making it a great alternative to costly lessons. Users appreciate its helpful videos and teaching approach suitable for children and beginners. However, multiple users report persistent app crashes while browsing lessons or videos, along with difficulties in premium membership sign-up and poor video display options. The app also suffers from ineffective coach search functionality and a high number of ads, which detract from its overall experience.

Cons

Unable to sign up for the monthly premium membership in some cases.
Video playback issues such as small video size and inability to watch in full-screen mode.
Search and filtering features for finding coaches are ineffective or show no results.

2023-05-21	Ol*****	I love what the app offers. The swim to fly app meets my expectations and needs. The only issue I have with the app is that for some days now, I have been trying to sign up for the monthly premium membership but I couldn't do that. To the developers kindly help resolve this so I can enjoy what the app offers.

2022-04-16	Le*****	EXAMPLE #1 Open app Go to Get Started, 3. Paddle, tap Intro module, do not play video, scroll to bottom of page - crashes instantly. EXAMPLE #2 Open app Go to Get Started, 3. Paddle, tap Skills in Details module. Played first 5 Skills videos in full screen mode. Tried to scroll down to Video 6, app crashed. EXAMPLE #3 Same as example #2 except I did not play any videos. I scrolled down the list of Skills in Details videos and the app crashed before I could play any of them. EXAMPLE #4 Same as example #2 except I wanted to play Skills Video 6. Multiple times I would see Video 6 as I scrolled down - and the app crashed before I could play the video. = = = = Crashes constantly, anytime I open a section of a lesson. Premium subscriber bc I love your approach, so this is super disappointing. 😥

2022-02-11	Ke*****	Android 12. I go to the first page, get started - bubbles - intro. Everything working fine but when I scroll to the end of the page, app suddenly closes. This happens for a number of other pages as well. Once I scroll to the bottom, the app shuts down.
