Leave a Review iSmoothRun
Underwhelmed
Maybe I am doing something wrong but the app on my first 30 minute run recorded only 7 minutes. On my second run it clipped 2 minutes. What’s jarring is when the run is over the app just shuts down. I have to restart it to view the training log. The report is basic, nothing fancy. You basically review data and make your own assessment of how things went. For the positives, I do like the ability to create my own workout , customize the display metrics and the audio cues. Not sure if I can trust the heart rate data though as it is not even close to my watch. Yes, I know smartwatch HR sensors aren’t accurate but this app missed a lot a heart rate data. Maybe it lost connection to the chest strap? The app was only $4.99 but does not feel polished like some other free apps out there.Show lessSeb.S.
Still the best!
I recently came back to this app after not using it for several years. My major goal was to be able to track heart rate zones, and most importantly have those zones and their changes be announced audibly through my headphones. That way, I don't have to keep looking at the watch and this appears to be the only app I could find that does precisely that. Yes, the interface is greatly outdated and could use some work and yes, I had to do some fiddling to get it all to work but now it's working perfectly. Only hope the developer gets motivated to update the whole thing sometime in the near future. after that, I'll give it five stars.Show lesssgmiller
A Shift in Experience with iSmoothRun
As a long-time user of iSmoothRun, I’ve logged an impressive quantity of running sessions with this app, which has been my go-to choice for tracking my runs. Initially, I was drawn to its seamless performance and reliable data recording, which worked perfectly with my iPhone—sans watch.
However, I’ve recently encountered a significant issue that has affected my experience. While the app continues to record data accurately during my runs, the moment I save and close the session, the exported FIT file displays the data incorrectly. The numbers are jumbled and lack any logical consistency with the actual data recorded during the run. This discrepancy is concerning, as it undermines the trust I’ve placed in the app to monitor my progress accurately.Show lessNonromper3
Great app. For running
I use this app with Polar heart rate and Stryd foot pod. I can’t remember when I first started using the app it has been such a long time. It works great and records all the stuff I want. It always works for me. I’ve used it in places with no cell service with no problems. I’ve used the watch app only and together with the phone. It loads data to Apple fitness. This is one of those apps I love because it always works for me. Polar can be a bit dodgy so I occasionally need to re- pair it. But that is a polar thing not this app. My only wish is bigger numbers as there seems to be some extra screen real estate since I can’t see the small stuff without reading glasses.Show lessAzzedine
Great app, recently starting having bugs
I’ve used the app for about 8 years and it’s terrific in the way you can customize the workouts and intervals. I have all my workout history and the audio cues are awesome. In the last month, I’ve had three instances where the app just quit running in the middle of a workout which is really inconvenient to say the least. It quit after my warm up Mike twice and the last one I didn’t even use a warm up Mile so it ran ok for 15 miles and then it quit running and didn’t save any of the data! I have no idea what to change to prevent ot from bugging out and I hope they fix it because I would hate to switch apps at this time. If it works for you then I highly recommend it!Show lessJrodz001
App isn’t one of the big names but it should be.
I’ve tried them all. Nike, Runkeeper, Strava. No app comes close to the features and improvement this app has. I can create custom workouts, now I see there are charts I never knew about. It has an awesome app for your watch that is fully customizable as well. I am sure I paid for the full version but that had to be years ago. Once in a while I say oh let me try a different running app only to remember why I keep coming back to this one.
I can’t say enough good things. Honestly, I don’t see a need for a dedicated Garmin when I have this an my Apple Watch. I can capture my treadmill workouts and outdoor. THIS APP IS THE BEST RUNNING APP EVEN FOR A SERIOUS RUNNER.Show lessabbeyainscal3
Awesome app. Just a couple of suggestions
iSmoothRun on your Apple Watch would shut up even the most obsessive and obnoxious Garmin fans… if they’d ever allow themselves to try it. But alas, those of us who have discovered it will just keep enjoying the dual benefits of a great running/fitness tracker AND everyday life improving features!
The only request I have is for my “Watch Only” runs to automatically export to Strava, Garmin, MMR, Nike, etc, without me having to remember to hit “Yes, Export” after each workout.Show lessCbohnd
Great app if you want custom heart rate zones
I chose this app because it allows you to make custom heart rate zones, and then alerts you when you’re above or below your custom zones. That’s the one feature I had trouble finding anywhere else, and this app does it well. It pairs nicely with the Apple Watch, too, so I don’t need to pull my phone out during runs.Show lessNickolas Namelsburg
Appreciative long time user
I’ve used this app for at least 7 years. The last several enhanced w an Apple Watch. Appreciate the ability to customize both phone and watch displays. And the audio reporting as well. My favorite feature is the ghost runs so I can compete against myself. The post run graphs are simple but informative. I’ve never regretted choosing iSmoothRunShow lessJimes0511
Best running (+more) app for all training!
Totally wowed by how much flexibility this app offers. I follow a regular half marathon or marathon training plan, and this app lets me predefine paced tempo, interval, and extended (long) runs that I can store away and tweak when I do my next event.
Packed with loads of features that I’ve found valuable - fastest recorded 1k, 5k, etc, song playlist used for a run, Apple health and calorie tracking, etc. Highly recommend!
Although built for running, this app will find fans from walkers, cyclists, etcShow lessBrindam74
