From signing in to the next booking.None of it needs you.
The member enters their email address and gets a code. No password to remember, though they can set one if they like.
They pick a class on your timetable and book it with their pack, their membership or as a drop-in.
The reminder arrives by itself, with the time they can cancel until. If something comes up, they cancel in the app.
Straight after class they can see what's left on their pack and book the next one whenever it suits.
Booking, cancelling, joining the waitlist, buying a new pack: members do it all in the app, whenever it suits them. Your timetable is always right, and your phone stays quiet.
When a member on the waitlist gets a free spot, a notification lands on their phone right away. One tap opens the class, and your class fills up again.
The Credit tab shows how many classes are left on each pack and until when, plus any membership that's running. Nobody needs to ask you any more.
Members use the Avana app and see your studio's name and logo at the top. Someone who belongs to more than one studio switches between them with one tap.
Not every member wants another app. Your studio page and the member account work in any phone's browser, with the same sign-in code. A first-time guest can even book a drop-in class without an account.

No. There's no app fee and no charge per member or per download; the app is part of your monthly plan, however many members use it. Members download it for free.

Members get a notification for a booking confirmation, the reminder before class, a spot opening on the waitlist and a cancelled class. They're also told about a pack running low, a payment that didn't go through and news from your studio. Each member chooses which notifications they want.
No. Members can also book in their phone's browser, on your studio page and in their own account, signing in with a code by email. A first-time guest can even book a drop-in class without an account. Anyone who comes regularly can install the app later and see the same credit there.
Members sign in with their email address and a code sent by email, or with a password if they prefer. If the email doesn't arrive, the code can come by text instead. That way nobody has to remember yet another password.
Yes. A member has one Avana account for every studio they belong to. At the top of the app they pick which studio to book with and whose credit to view, in one tap. Each studio only ever sees its own members.

See all featuresAvana is studio booking software where members book, cancel and check their credit in the Avana app or in the browser. Members want to sort out a class on their phone as easily as booking a table. At the same time, not everyone wants yet another app. That's why Avana works both ways: the same classes, the same credit and the same sign-in code, in the app and in the browser.
Think about what members want to know from you all week: what time the class is, whether there's a spot, how many classes are left on their pack and when they can cancel until. Those are exactly the questions filling your messages now. In a good member app, the answer is always there.
In the Avana app it all sits in four tabs: Classes for what's booked, Book for your timetable, Credit for packs and memberships, and Me for their details and notifications. What a member does there shows up immediately on your timetable and on their card in your member management.
Having your own app built costs a lot of money and upkeep, and every new version of iOS or Android means more work. Most studios don't need it. What members want is to book quickly and recognise your studio.
In the Avana app, members see your studio's name and logo at the top. If they belong to two studios, they switch with one tap, on one account. You use the same app for your own timetable and your members, and it's part of your plan with no separate app fee.
Not every member likes installing an app, least of all for a single trial class. So everything works in the browser too. A member opens your studio page, picks a class and signs in with a code by email, with no password. If the email doesn't arrive, the code comes by text. A first-time guest can even book a drop-in without an account.
Anyone who comes more often can still install the app later and find the same credit there. How your timetable appears online is covered under the online class schedule.
The biggest advantage of an app is the notification on the screen. A reminder before class stands out far more than an email among the newsletters. When a waitlist spot opens, the member sees it at once and the spot is filled again in minutes. When a class is off, everyone knows before anyone makes a wasted trip.
Members choose which notifications they want, so the app never becomes a nuisance. How a free spot passes along by itself is explained under cancellations and the waitlist.
Pick an app where members see their own credit, or the questions will keep coming. Look at how people sign in: the fewer passwords, the more members actually use it. Check that cancelling and the waitlist are built in, and that your cancellation window applies automatically.
Ask whether there are charges per member or per download, because those grow as you do. And think about privacy: each member should only see their own details, as UK GDPR expects. In Avana the app is included in every plan, with no cost per member, and each member only sees their own account.
In a reformer studio on Studio Max, members can swap to another reformer in the app until the cancellation window starts. At an outdoor bootcamp, everyone gets a notification when a session is called off. At a dance school on Studio Plus, a parent adds their children to their own account and signs each child up for a term group.
And at a gym or boxing gym on Studio Plus, members check in at the door with the QR code from the app. You see who is in each class without a clipboard on the desk.
You and your members use the same Avana app. You see who's coming today, what has come in and what's left on every pack. Members book, cancel, join the waitlist, buy a new pack and get notifications. The app works with your class packs, your memberships and the messages to your members. What Avana costs is in the pricing above.
Many studios choose booking software that comes with a member app, so members book and check their credit themselves. With Avana, members use the Avana app for iPhone and Android, with your studio's name at the top, or the browser. The app is included in every plan, from £17.99 a month, VAT included.
Having an app built is expensive and needs constant upkeep. With Avana your members have an app without you building anything: they use the Avana app and see your studio's name and logo in it. Booking, cancelling, the waitlist and their credit are all there.
In Avana, a member on the waitlist gets an app notification straight away when a spot opens, and an email as well. Tapping the notification opens the class to book. If the first person waiting doesn't take it, it moves on to the next.
Yes. Members can book in their phone's browser, on your studio page, signing in with a code by email and no password. A first-time guest can book a drop-in without an account and install the app later if they like.
| What to look for | Why it matters | What Avana does |
|---|---|---|
| Credit in the app | Otherwise every member keeps asking how many classes they have left. | Packs, membership and payments all sit under Credit. |
| Notifications | A notification on the screen gets noticed straight away. | Reminder, free spot and cancelled class, each on or off per member. |
| Signing in | A password puts some members off. | A code by email, or by text if the email doesn't arrive. |
| Browser | Not every member wants an app. | Everything works in the browser too, with the same account. |
| Recognisably yours | Members belong to your studio. | Your studio's name and logo at the top of the app. |
| Cost | Fees per member add up as you grow. | The app is included in every plan, with unlimited members. |
