TL;DR:

  • You can practice for free. Alo Wellness Club (the app formerly called Alo Moves) dropped its subscription paywall, and Nike Training Club gives Nike Members free yoga, pilates and recovery content.
  • Down Dog is the most flexible pick for home practice. Every session is generated fresh, you set the length, focus, voice and music, and one subscription covers yoga, pilates, HIIT, barre, prenatal yoga and meditation.
  • Glo has the deepest teacher-led library we found, with 12,000+ classes and 25+ styles, but it is also the most expensive at $30 per month or $245 per year.
  • Mid-priced options cluster around $10 to $14 a month: Apple Fitness+ ($9.99), Peloton App One ($12.99), Find What Feels Good ($12.99) and Gaia ($13.99).
  • Most paid apps offer a trial (7 days for Glo, Gaia and Find What Feels Good, 30 days for Peloton, one month for Apple Fitness+), so you can test the teaching style before paying.

The best yoga apps

These ten apps cover almost every way people practice at home, from free classes to premium teacher-led programs. Prices come from each company's own site or app store listing in October 2026 and are in US dollars.

Down Dog logo
#1

Down Dog

Best for: Personalized home practice

Visit downdogapp.com
Starts atSee website
Free plan?Free trial
Down Dog website
downdogapp.com homepage

Down Dog is our pick for most people who want to practice at home. Instead of a library of filmed classes, it builds a new sequence each time, with new poses, music and spoken cues. You choose your level, how long you want to practice, how much explanation you want, the teacher's voice and the style of music.

You can download practices for offline use, cast to a TV, and practice in 13 languages. The main yoga app holds a 4.9 rating from about 327,000 ratings on the US App Store.

The catch is the price structure. Down Dog's FAQ says it moved to a short free trial followed by a required subscription, and it says the website usually offers the best price, with in-app prices that can be higher. Check the site before you subscribe inside the app.

Pros
  • Every practice is generated new, so classes never repeat
  • Set the length, level, focus, voice and music
  • One subscription covers yoga, pilates, HIIT, barre, prenatal and meditation
Cons
  • A subscription is required after a brief free trial
  • Prices differ between the website and in-app purchase

Glo

Best for: Serious students who want expert teachers

Visit glo.com
Starts at$30 per month
Free plan?Free trial (7 days)
Glo website
glo.com homepage

Glo is the app for people who already love yoga and want to keep learning from experienced teachers. Its pricing page lists more than 12,000 on-demand classes and over 25 styles, including Vinyasa Flow, Hatha, Yin, mat pilates, strength and mindfulness. Classes are also grouped by need, such as stress and anxiety, sleep, menopause and recovery.

The structured programs are the standout: guided series, such as a nine-class menopause support program, that build week to week.

Price is the honest weakness. Glo costs $30 per month, or $245 per year (about $20.42 per month). That is two to three times what most other apps here charge. Use the 7-day free trial to decide whether the teaching is worth it to you.

Pros
  • 12,000+ on-demand classes across 25+ styles
  • Multi-class programs for stress, sleep, menopause and recovery
  • Annual members get extra programs and live workshops
Cons
  • The most expensive app on this list
  • The size of the library can feel overwhelming for a beginner

Alo Wellness Club

Best for: Free studio-style classes

Visit wellnessclub.aloyoga.com
Starts atFree
Free plan?Yes
Alo Wellness Club website
wellnessclub.aloyoga.com homepage

If you remember Alo Moves as a $12 per month app, this is the same app with a new name and a new price. In December 2025 Alo relaunched it as Alo Wellness Club and removed the subscription paywall, making the library free for members of Alo Access, the brand's free loyalty program. The App Store listing now says it is always free, with no subscription and no credit card.

You get thousands of yoga, pilates, strength and mindfulness classes, and a guide that sorts series into five difficulty levels and four intensity levels.

The trade-off is that the app is part of a clothing brand's marketing. Some deeper programs are sold separately; the App Store lists in-app purchases from $19.99 to $49.99, such as an Ashtanga primary series. For most people, the free classes are more than enough.

Pros
  • The full class library is free
  • Covers Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Hatha, Restorative and Yin
  • Rated 4.9 on the US App Store
Cons
  • Some special programs are paid add-ons
  • Tied to Alo's loyalty program and shopping brand
Find What Feels Good logo
#4

Find What Feels Good

Best for: Fans of Yoga With Adriene

Visit fwfg.com
Starts at$12.99 per month
Free plan?Free trial (7 days)

Find What Feels Good is the membership app from Yoga With Adriene, one of the best-known free yoga channels on YouTube. If her calm, joking, no-pressure style is what keeps you on the mat, this app collects her classes and series in one ad-free place with members-only content.

The membership page lists $12.99 per month or $129.99 per year, and both come with a free 7-day trial. We also saw a separate promotional page offering 25 percent off, so it is worth looking for a discount before you sign up.

The honest question is whether you need it, since much of Adriene's teaching is free on YouTube. The app makes sense if you want an ad-free experience, exclusive series and a way to support her.

Pros
  • Ad-free home of Adriene Mishler's yoga classes
  • Warm, beginner-friendly teaching style
  • Annual plan available
Cons
  • Much of Adriene's content is already free on YouTube
  • Fewer teachers and styles than Glo or Alo
Peloton App logo
#5

Peloton App

Best for: Mixing yoga with strength and cardio

Visit onepeloton.com
Starts at$12.99 per month
Free plan?Free trial (30 days)

The Peloton App suits people who want yoga as one part of a wider routine. App One costs $12.99 per month (or $129 per year) on Peloton's site and includes unlimited yoga, strength, meditation and outdoor running classes, plus three cardio equipment classes per month. App+ adds unlimited cardio classes for any bike, treadmill or rower and costs $28.99 per month.

You do not need any Peloton hardware, and the 30-day trial is the longest on this list.

Two catches. The trial needs a credit card, so set a reminder to cancel if you are just testing. And Peloton's own fine print says App One costs $15.99 per month when you subscribe through the Apple App Store, so signing up on the website is cheaper.

Pros
  • App One includes unlimited yoga, strength, meditation and outdoor running
  • No Peloton bike or treadmill needed
  • Long 30-day free trial
Cons
  • Credit card required for the trial
  • Costs $15.99 per month when bought through Apple
Apple Fitness+ logo
#6

Apple Fitness+

Best for: iPhone and Apple Watch owners

Visit apple.com
Starts at$9.99 per month
Free plan?Free trial (1 month)

If you already have an iPhone, Apple Fitness+ is a low-cost way to add yoga to your week. It costs $9.99 per month or $79.99 per year after a one-month free trial, and buying an eligible Apple device can extend the trial to three months. Apple lists 12 workout types, including yoga, strength and HIIT, plus meditation.

You need only an iPhone 8 or later, and most workouts need no equipment.

It is not a specialist yoga app. You get yoga as one category among many, without the deep pose instruction or programs you get from Glo or Down Dog. Android users cannot use it at all.

Pros
  • Only needs an iPhone
  • Yoga sits alongside 11 other workout types and meditation
  • $79.99 per year is low for what you get
Cons
  • Apple devices only
  • Less yoga depth than a dedicated yoga app
Gaia logo
#7

Gaia

Best for: Yoga plus meditation and spiritual content

Visit gaia.com
Starts at$13.99 per month
Free plan?Free trial (7 days)

Gaia is a streaming service first and a yoga app second. Its pricing page advertises hundreds of yoga and meditation classes, from beginner to advanced, alongside a large catalog of shows on consciousness, spirituality and alternative ideas.

The monthly plan is $13.99, the annual plan is $119 (about $9.92 per month), and both include a 7-day free trial for new users. A pricier Gaia+ tier at $299 per year adds live and replay events.

If you want yoga plus long-form spiritual content, it is good value. If you only want yoga, a dedicated app gives you more, and some of Gaia's non-yoga programming makes claims worth treating with skepticism.

Pros
  • Hundreds of yoga and meditation classes for all levels
  • Annual plan works out to $9.92 per month
  • Large library of documentaries and series beyond yoga
Cons
  • Much of the catalog is about spirituality and alternative topics, not yoga
  • Gaia+ live events cost $299 per year
Nike Training Club logo

Nike Training Club

Best for: Free yoga alongside gym workouts

Visit nike.com
Starts atFree
Free plan?Yes

Nike Training Club is a training app that happens to include good yoga. The App Store listing says Nike Members get free access to strength, conditioning, yoga, pilates, recovery and mindfulness content, and joining is free. That makes it a smart pick if you lift or run and want yoga for mobility and recovery.

You can schedule workouts, follow structured programs and cast classes to a bigger screen.

If yoga is your main practice, you will run out of variety faster here than in a yoga-only app. Think of it as a free supplement, not a full yoga studio.

Pros
  • Free yoga, pilates, recovery and mindfulness content for Nike Members
  • Strong strength and conditioning programs in the same app
  • Casting to a larger screen
Cons
  • Yoga is a small part of the app
  • Requires a free Nike Member account

Daily Yoga

Best for: Beginners who like challenges and chair yoga

Visit dailyyoga.com
Starts atSee website
Free plan?Yes

Daily Yoga is a long-running app aimed at beginners and people who want gentle, low-impact options. Its App Store description highlights classic yoga, chair yoga, wall pilates and somatic workouts, plus a Smart Coach feature that builds a 28-day schedule around your goal. Classes can be downloaded and used offline, and the app syncs with Apple Health.

The free download includes some content, and paid memberships add more. That is where it gets messy. The US App Store lists many different in-app purchases with names like Gold Pro Membership and Full Access to All Pros, ranging from $5.99 to $69.99, and it is not easy to tell which you need. Read the plan screen carefully before tapping buy.

Its listing also makes large claims about rankings and user numbers that we could not confirm.

Pros
  • Free to download with some free classes
  • Chair yoga, wall pilates and sofa yoga for low-impact practice
  • Downloadable classes for offline use
Cons
  • Confusing list of paid tiers in the app
  • App store copy leans on large marketing claims

#10

Yoga Studio

Best for: Building your own custom classes

Visit yogastudioapp.com
Starts atSee website
Free plan?Free trial (7 days)

Yoga Studio is for people who know what they want in a class and want to build it themselves. The app lets you create unlimited custom classes from a library of more than 280 poses, then stitches them into a full follow-along video. Pose blocks and a Smart-link feature help connect poses that would not normally flow together.

It suits yoga teachers planning sequences and experienced students. There is a 7-day free trial, and one purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Apple TV.

The downside is that pricing is not listed on the website, so you will only see it in the app. Beginners may also find a build-your-own app harder to start with than one that simply tells them what to do today.

Pros
  • Create unlimited custom classes with full video
  • Over 280 poses with detailed guidance
  • Works on iPhone, iPad and Apple TV
Cons
  • Price is shown only inside the app
  • Fewer live-teacher style classes than most rivals

How we picked these

We started with the yoga apps people search for most and added smaller apps that solve a specific problem, such as building custom classes. For each one, we read the official feature pages, pricing pages and FAQs, and the US App Store listings for ratings and in-app purchase prices. We did not run our own hands-on trials of every app, so we focused on what each company publishes and on clear differences in price, library size and flexibility.

Where a company does not publish a clear price we could confirm, we list See website.

How to choose a yoga app for home practice

Decide how much guidance you want

Beginners usually do best with a teacher who explains alignment and offers modifications, as on Glo, Find What Feels Good and Alo Wellness Club. Down Dog lets you control the pace and amount of explanation instead.

Check the price after the trial

Most apps here offer a free trial, and several need a payment method to start it. Note the renewal price and date. Also compare website and in-app prices: Down Dog and Peloton both say their web prices can be lower than buying through the App Store.

Think about your other workouts

If you also run or lift, an all-in-one app like Peloton, Apple Fitness+ or Nike Training Club may save you a second subscription.

A note on safety

A yoga app is not medical advice. If you are pregnant, recovering from an injury or managing a health condition, talk to your doctor before starting, choose beginner or prenatal classes, and skip any pose that causes pain.

FAQ

What is the best yoga app for beginners?

For most beginners we suggest Down Dog, because you can set a beginner level and ask for more explanation. If you want a free option with real teachers, Alo Wellness Club and Find What Feels Good's free trial are good places to start. Daily Yoga is another easy entry point, especially for chair yoga.

Is there a completely free yoga app?

Yes. Alo Wellness Club made its full library free in late 2025, and Nike Training Club includes free yoga content for Nike Members. Both only ask you to create a free account.

What is the best at home yoga app?

Down Dog is our pick for home practice because it adapts every session to your time and level and works offline. Glo is the better choice if you want structured programs from expert teachers and do not mind paying more.

Are yoga apps worth paying for?

They can be if you practice a few times a week, since most cost $10 to $14 per month. Use the free trial and check you actually open the app before the first charge.

Which yoga app has the most classes?

Of the apps we compared, Glo publishes the biggest number, with more than 12,000 on-demand classes. Alo Wellness Club says it offers thousands of classes, and Down Dog generates a new class every time, so it never runs out.
