🔧 Troubleshooting

Sometimes things don’t go as planned. Here’s what to do if you encounter any issues in a private or public pod:

1. Door Doesn’t Unlock:
   • Ensure your phone’s Bluetooth is enabled and the app is running.
   • Tap the Unlock button within the app.
   • If the door still won’t open, restart the app and try again.
   • As a last resort, contact Fitness Blocks support or your leasing office for private pods.
2. Equipment Malfunction:
   • Stop using the equipment immediately to avoid injury.
   • Report the issue using the Issue Reporting feature in the Fitness Blocks app.
   • Fitness Blocks will prioritize the repair and notify you once it's resolved.
3. AC Isn’t Working:
   • Check the thermostat inside the pod to ensure it’s set to your preferred temperature.
   • If the AC remains unresponsive, report the issue through the Issue Reporting feature in the Fitness Blocks app.
