It’s fine

Came here from the 5K app. While it tracks running and walking paces and distances covered fine, the system integration is a significant downgrade. I’m sure that has to do with how many people use this app and how big of a team/time the developers can dedicate to improvements vs maintenance. It doesn’t seem like there’s been a visual overhaul since the iphone 4 or something (which doesn’t ultimately matter) and the mid workout verbal prompts don’t work as easily, if you can get them to work at all (it takes a LOT of trouble shooting when the 5K version just worked). All said: it works and does the job it needs to do, but that’s it.

Meh

Assumes that you run on its schedule rather than checking when you run eg week x run 1 on a Thursday after 3 other runs; doesn’t monitor progress and set next run requirements accordingly

Not maintained

The pace clock stops, the gps is 0.02 km ahead when starting, the app was last refreshed for iOS 7. Maps need updating.

Fix the lock please

The locking on the 5k is better. I locked my app but somehow it came undone and my time restarted with 4 minutes left to go on my run. Not cool.

Great stepping stone

I’ve been running 5k for about a year and needed to find an app to help me a) get quicker and b) transition to 10K. This app is perfect for it and is really helping
