Hey Trainerize Team, I wanted to share some thoughts on improving the group messaging functionality. Right now, it’s a great way to build community, but a few updates could make it significantly more effective—similar to how Facebook Groups operate.

Here are the key updates that would make a huge difference:

1.  Scheduled & Automatic Posts – Being able to schedule posts in advance would help trainers keep engagement high without having to manually post every day. This is crucial for consistency, accountability, and delivering value to clients.

2.  Search & Organization – Messages often get buried in the thread, making it difficult for clients to find past discussions, resources, or updates. A search function or a way to pin important posts would make the group chat much more user-friendly.

3.  Longer Video Uploads – The current 60-second video limit is a major constraint. Many trainers use video for exercise demos, form corrections, and educational content. Extending the upload limit (or allowing direct uploads from external links) would make it much more useful.

4.  Polls & Interactive Features – The ability to run polls would help engage clients, get quick feedback, and create a more interactive coaching experience. Right now, there’s no easy way to do this within the app.

These updates would bring a massive boost to engagement, client accountability, and overall community feel within Trainerize. I’d love to hear if any of these are on the roadmap!
