It gets you fit. *2020-08-06, version 34.9.10* I like the programme. It gets you fit. Unfortunately , the app hangs up every time I use it —without saving my data. Please update! Ta. ### 3/5 — Mixed review *2020-07-09, version 34.9.10* Good visuals and audio prompts. Freezes at the end of the routine on the page prompting you to share your results. Wish I could pair it with my music. ### 2/5 — Stability *2020-05-14, version 34.9.10* Stops before run finishes ### 1/5 — Not a great plan. *2019-09-15, version 34.9.10* Training from couch to 5k is all about getting to 3x30 minute runs or 3x5k runs, for health reasons. There’s many C25K apps out there including one by this developer, which are good. Going to 10k is a different beast. I don’t have time in my week to run 3 10k runs a week as this and most apps insist on doing to me. The journey from 5k to 10k here is inefficient and time can become an issue. I’d advise anyone looking to get to 10k to vary their runs up, do some shorter recovery runs, some tempo work and one long run a week. Not only will you get to 10k easier, if you’re training for an event you’ll start that race with much fresher legs. ### 1/5 — App freezes *2019-05-08, version 34.9.10* Like other reviews my experience was the same the App freezes. Also had pop up ads which was so annoying. Don’t bother ### 1/5 — Awful experience *2019-03-17, version 34.9.10* I am trying to use it for interval running, looks like it doesn’t notify reliably between walk and run. No history stored. I am going to uninstall ### 1/5 — Pauses *2019-02-16, version 34.9.10* Very frustrating! Constantly stops and I have to reset. Time is never accurate due to this. Distance is way off as well. Ive emailed for help and no response. Not any better on the paid ap, Ive tried both😩 ### 1/5 — Terrible *2018-08-24, version 34.9.10* I am not happy with this app. If I lock my phone it stops working and I have to restart my run. Sometimes it pauses for no reason and I never realize right away. I’m angry that I spent the money to upgrade to the paid version. Waste of money!!! ### 1/5 — Freezes constantly *2018-08-13, version 34.9.10* Same as other reviewers, the app usually freezes half way through. Very frustrating. ### 2/5 — Battery drain *2018-08-05, version 34.9.10* I loved this app the first couple of times I ran but I am into the third week and the app turned into a battery drain. It is unusable. The other day I was out and had 78% on my battery. I was down to 43% before the 5 minute warm up was complete. This is with nothing else running on my phone. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother - freezes constantly *2018-05-16, version 34.9.10* Worked fine for 3 weeks now the timer for each run in wk 4 freezes constantly so you can’t track the changes or distance No reply from developer Waste of 4.99 ### 2/5 — Petit problème *2017-10-12, version 34.9.10* Toujours le même pro bugs avec la distance svp une mise à jour!!!😡😡 Bonjour j’adore votre application que j’ai acheté ( pro ) mais deux fois sur 5 il m’est arrivé un petit problème Le premier problème fut que le chrono n’avançait plus pour les 5 dernières minutes Le deuxième était la distance c’est arrêté de fonctionner une chance que j’avais une autre application pour me donner la bonne distance Il y a aussi la langue j’ai inscrit français et il me parle en anglais Mise à jour SVP ### 2/5 — Very annoying that it switches itself *2017-04-06, version 34.9.4* Very annoying that it switches itself when I've started it but it's in the background say when I go to music or another app. Sort this out and I'll use it! ### 2/5 — Gps *2016-09-19, version 2.4* Lasted gps update tracked a 2.5 mile run at 0.091 miles. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Horrible App *2020-10-20, version 34.9.10* Half the time the workout pauses without telling you in the middle of the workout. So when you have run 2 to 3 times more time than the interval should have been, you pull out your phone to check and find the clock has stopped. You’re way better off to find a different workout/interval app. ### 1/5 — A shame *2020-07-21, version 34.9.10* Really liked the layout of this app and how it’s started off. At first it froze and I had to restart it. Got out for a run and all going great, get back and it’s lost the data. No run logged. ### 1/5 — App can’t handle being in the background *2020-07-19, version 34.9.10* Very frustrating flaw when trying to change audio content or whatever and it loses your run! ### 1/5 — Couch to 10K .....at some point ! *2020-07-04, version 34.9.10* Keeps switching off whenever the screen locks or a call or message comes in. Ran for 6k and it showed I had ran for 35secs. Had to keep restarting which was no use at all. Would not recommend this unless it gets a massive overhaul! Better and more reliable apps out there! 😠 ### 1/5 — Very basic *2020-05-30, version 34.9.10* Unfortunately I can’t give this app a good rating. It keeps stopping as soon as you receive a call or leave the app for whatever reason. Your results are not saved so you can’t go back to we’re you left off so you need to start a complete new run. And no this is not getting better with the Pro-Version. I made the mistake and bought for both the 5k and the 10k the pro version so I can track the distance as well - really poor technical development. Disappointed as it is be easy to handle ### 1/5 — Awful *2020-05-04, version 34.9.10* It was okay but then it kept shutting of and it wouldn’t let me complete my run it was awful!! ### 1/5 — Crashes often *2020-02-08, version 34.9.10* I'd love to review this but I can't as it's crashed every time I've tried to use it What I have seen looks good but stability is not good ### 1/5 — Miss *2020-01-19, version 34.9.10* I downloaded and then paid to upgrade at the cost of about £11. I hadn’t used the app in a few weeks. When I went to use it again it had lost all my details and the fact that I had already paid for the upgraded version. Absolute rip off. ### 1/5 — Continually bugs out!!! *2020-01-07, version 34.9.10* Very disappointing. ### 1/5 — Sem informações *2019-09-25* O aplicativo esta fechando no meio do treino, ou simplesmente não marca a distância correta. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Yay! An app that does what it says it will! *2017-07-16, version 34.9.9* Need to train to run stronger and faster. This app is PERFECT! Love that I can use my own music and that it eases me into running instead of pushing. Thank you!! ### 5/5 — Clean layout *2017-03-31, version 34.9.4* Love 10k Run and 5k Run. Only con is both crash occasionally on my iPod Touch. Last year, used 5k Run to work up to my very first 5k - from never running before! Love the clean format, circle visuals of time, and the audio prompts! ### 5/5 — Couch 2 10k *2016-06-07, version 2.3* Great app, I think, it seems to be great! ### 5/5 — 10k *2016-01-03, version 1.1* Fantastic app ### 4/5 — Almost perfect! *2019-05-27, version 34.9.10* New user. Happy so far. Easy to use. I’m a true “couch potato” so the transition from week 2 to 3 has been a big leap so I’ll have to repeat week 3. Also run 3 in week 8 has “10K” written- I think it’s supposed to be 5k as it’s a 30 minute interval of running?! Overall it works well! ### 4/5 — Supercool *2018-04-04, version 34.9.10* Bitte auch für die Apple Watch programmieren :) ### 4/5 — 10K *2017-05-27, version 34.9.5* I love this app. It gives verbal commands so that I can run without looking at my phone to see how long to run. ### 4/5 — New Runner *2016-11-15, version 3.0* Really a good app to help the new runner. At 53 years old it is helping me get in shape and do it the right way. The only thing i would change is give the option to get rid of the loud bell in the free version. ### 4/5 — Great app for training for a 10k run *2016-06-02, version 2.3* I'm half way through this programme. It's working really well. Only draw back is it doesn't track calorie usage - but it does track distance and shows your route. Great little app for what you need it to do. Happy running! ### 4/5 — 10k app *2016-04-18, version 1.4* Great app shame I can't play my music through the app I have to use my Nike app --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
