Health club operator David Lloyd Leisure (DLL) has launched a free UK mobile app aimed at both members and non-members.

The app is currently available for iPhone, iPod and iPad devices (and soon to be available on android), and includes a club finder and downloadable timetables for courses and classes.

It also features searchable profiles of personal trainers and tennis coaches, as well as introductory exercise video guides and photo galleries of club facilities.

Additional services are available for members, as DLL hopes the app to work as a retention tool. These services include:

• Customised dashboard enabling users to view the information that matters to them

• Club 'check-in'- allowing members to record their club visits • Timetables to view and download schedules for courses and group exercise classes

• Find an expert - search and review profiles of personal trainers and tennis coaches • Club news and events - the latest news from a member's club, plus the option to enquire about attending an event

• Notifications - up-to-date information on events, new product launches and offers

According to DLL head of digital marketing strategy David Brosse, the app will form the "initial building block for the provision of many new and exciting services".

"New features for our app could include mobile bookings, music services, mobile payments, and the provision of engaging and educational videos; all of which will be a must for all health and fitness enthusiasts," he added.

The app has been developed by Bristol-based specialist mobile agency, AlwaysOnMessage.
