Important Update: Spira App Is Being Retired on October 29

Due to Apple’s policy requiring a 30% fee on all in-app purchases, we will be discontinuing the Spira app as of October 29. Mindbody, our registration platform, has tried for years to negotiate a solution for small brick-and-mortar studios like ours, but Apple is not making exceptions.
We were left with two choices:
Keep an app that cannot process payments or Zoom bookings, showing only a partial schedule, or
Retire the app entirely.
To avoid confusion and a half-functioning app, I’ve decided it’s best to remove it.
What stays the same?
Mindbody will still handle all registrations and payments.
Your login and account details remain unchanged.
What’s the only change?
You’ll now register through our website instead of the app.
Easiest Solution: Add Spira Website to Your Home Screen
You can create a bookmark on your phone’s home screen—it will look and function almost like an app. Just tap, sign in, and register as usual.
To bookmark on your phone, open the desired webpage in your browser, then tap the Menu icon (three dots or a Share button), select Add to Home Screen, or tap the Star icon or Menu again to find the Add to Bookmarks option
I know it may take a moment to adjust, and I truly appreciate your understanding. A 30% fee is simply not feasible for a small studio—we’d rather put those resources into better classes and community.
Thank you for supporting Spira and making this transition with us.
Warmly,Dora
It’s great to see transparency around product changes and timelines. The explanation feels considerate of https://citylineairconditioning.com/ac-maintenance-richardson-tx/ users. I came across a similar update post on a citylineairconditioning review blog that was handled thoughtfully.
Thanks for https://www.pantherplumbing.com/ sharing this important update. The information about the app retirement was communicated clearly and thoughtfully. I’ve seen similar transition updates on a pantherplumbing review blog (pantherplumbing).
Great to see Banff returning this https://theshelfking.com post really captured the excitement and community impact. It feels optimistic and welcoming. I saw a similar travel-related update on a theshelfking review blog (theshelfking), and it was nice to compare the enthusiasm.
This was a helpful https://www.cygnetliving.com and transparent update. I appreciate being informed ahead of time, and the explanation makes the transition easier. I saw a service update post on cygnetliving that handled change just as well.
Thanks for the transparent update on the https://www.coversinplay.com app changes. I recently read a coversinplay article about digital transitions, and this communication was appreciated.
