Version History of Get Running

1.12.1

August 28, 2017

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. • Get Running 1.12.1 is a 64 bit App for your fantastic 64bit device. • This update has a completely new audio implementation. It's been entirely replaced for even greater reliability. Music will fade down while Get Running coaches you, then fade back in, to help you keep exercising. Audio books and podcast content will temporarily pause while Get Running coaches you, and then resume, so you never miss a word. • Get Running 1.12.0 has various tweaks to the user interface. Thanks for your support, and happy running!

1.11.0

October 16, 2013

This is a major bug fix for iOS 7 and Facebook sign-in issues. We've tweaked the user interface for iOS 7 too, but there are more improvements in the pipeline… Thank you for your awesome feedback and suggestions. You are wonderful customers! Happy running, Get Running team

1.10.0

July 22, 2013

The major change in this update is single-sign-in for Twitter and Facebook; robustness improvements to posting; and use of the built in tweet sheet when you write an update yourself. We've also made a small change to when runs are added to you log – they're now completed as soon as the warm up starts. Oh, and: NEW ICON! … Shiny New Icon! We hope you'll enjoy in on your home screen. A few minor bugs have been fixed with external status update support. Thanks as always for your awesome feedback and suggestions. Please keep it coming. Happy running!

1.9

September 21, 2012

We've added support for the 4 inch screen of the iPhone 5, and also added translations for German (fancy learning a new language as you run? – now you can!). A few bugs associated with iOS 6 have been fixed. We're planning to put out more updates soon with various features that have been requested. Until then, please keep your feedback coming and happy running!

1.8.3

March 21, 2011

Get Running is now a fully Retina App, and about time too! Thanks to Jamie Hill for prodding us to get this done. Thank you very much for all your lovely reviews – they help so much and you're helping others to Get Running too! Please keep your suggestions and success stories coming in, and don't forget you can share them with everyone on the forum: http://forum.splendid-things.co.uk Happy Running!

1.8.2

March 2, 2011

If Get Running kept asking you to look at our running tips all the time, sorry – it was a daft bug that's fixed with this update. We've made some UI improvements including a simple guide to using Get Running with the iPod App, and (huge excitement for this) a version string! Please keep your suggestions and success stories coming in, and don't forget you can share them with everyone on the forum: http://forum.splendid-things.co.uk Happy Running!

1.8.1

January 14, 2011

Lots of you have asked to easily know how long each work out is, and how much running is involved, so we've added this on to the main screen. Thank you for letting us know! The status bar during runs is now a groovy black, not a jarring grey. Other recent big updates are full support of both Facebook and Twitter. Please keep sending us your feedback and suggestions, and your awesomely fantastic success stories. Happy Running!

1.8

November 12, 2010

The big news is Get Running now has full support for posting your running victories to Facebook as well as Twitter. You will inspire your friends and followers, and they can keep you motivated and encouraged! The other big change isn't a cool new feature to tick off. We've been looking at Get Running's interface, and we've refined, polished and buffed in lots of places. If you notice nothing more than greater happiness and peace with the world, then our work has been worth it. Please keep sending us your feedback and suggestions, and your awesomely fantastic success stories. Happy Running!

1.7.2

September 27, 2010

Based on your wonderful feedback: ● We've added an option for iOS 4.x users so that you can pause iPod play back – it's perfect for audio books. For music lovers, the "ducking" setting is also supported. ● Bugs reported with both iOS 3.x and 4.x have been addressed. Please let us know if you find anything else! Other recent hot improvements: ● Support for multiple users (Get your husband / wife / sister / brother / best friends running too). ● Full support for iOS 4.x multitasking (so you can use Get Running alongside Run Keeper) , and continuing support for devices using iOS 3.1.3. Thanks again for your comments, suggestions and praise. Please keep them coming so Get Running can continue to improve! Happy Running!

1.7.1

August 19, 2010

We've made important changes to let Get Running work with Twitter's improved security. Two bugs crept in to the last version, and these are remedied. The other hot new recent features are: ● Support for multiple users (Get your husband / wife / sister / brother / best friends running too). ● Full support for both iOS4 and iOS3, including multi-tasking voice coaching (track you run with Run Keeper and Get Running keeps talking to you). Thank you for your comments and suggestions, and please keep them coming so Get Running can continue to improve! Happy Running!

Description of Get Running

Want to get fit and feel fantastic? Want to add some fresh air to your exercise? Then Get Running with the best Couch to 5k App! With three enjoyable workouts a week, in nine weeks you will be running continuously for half an hour, even if getting off the couch is a struggle today! Get Running breaks through the “beginning barrier” with its enormously popular Couch to 5k running plan. In week one’s workouts you'll alternate one minute of running with 90 seconds of walking. With each new week, Get Running’s human voice coach gradually builds up your pace, until you’re running for a whole half-hour! Get Running is the only Couch to 5K App that: • Coaches like a human – with hundreds of studio-recorded progress and encouragement prompts. • Supports and encourages you – talk with fellow running rookies on the Get Running forum. • Lets you share (NEW!) – share Get Running with up to three other runners: you all get your own log and settings! • Helps you plan – rest days help you recover, and Get Running knows the best day for your next run. • Displays your next move – the unique Run Clock, customised for each workout, gives complete visibility and understanding. In addition, Get Running: • Works with or without music. Or listen to podcasts and audio books. • Fits your schedule – just three workouts a week of 20 to 30 minutes. • Logs your achievements – with an illuminating visual record of your progress. Thousands of people have changed their lives with Get Running and you will too! Whether you’re running for your health, training for a 5K, or building to conquer a marathon — Get Running! Get Running's users say: • Just finished week 9 run 3 and all I can say is this app changed my life. Great job. • I LOVE your app. I have tried several but Yours is the BEST for me. I am 60 years young this year & a cancer survivor. I have set the goal to run 5 K races. I use your program as my trainer, it is SUPER. Thank You. – Vickie Wheeler by email • I tried the top selling "Couch to 5k" App before I purchased this one, and this one is much nicer to use. The voice reminders are very helpful. I like how it pauses your music instead of talking over it. I highly recommend it over the others. • Thank you so much for this little gem of an app. I had a look at others like it but this wins hands down. It is so brilliantly simple with a great interface. • Thank you! This app has changed my life. I was unfit and didn't do any regular exercise. I always blamed my asthma for being the reason I couldn't run for longer than a minute, but now I know it's because I was unfit! I have signed up for a 5k race too! – @amyriddett on Twitter • Really great app. I'm actually looking forward to running. I listen to podcasts and this app is terrific at pausing the show to make it's announcements. I don't miss anything that was said. Outstanding.
