I have to uninstall and download it again to get it to work. I've tried updating my OS. This is the only app that behaves this way on my phone. ### 2/5 — Decent when not crashing *2025-05-25* The UI is pretty serviceable when the app is functioning well, easy to use for daily logging. However, it crashes a few times per month and often freezes when entering workout details. It really should be updated and debugger at least a few times per month, considering that when it’s buggy, it’s almost useless. ### 2/5 — Program Sync *2025-05-12, version 4.2.3* Program I brought and applied to start using, not all the workouts load ### 2/5 — Forever loading *2025-03-09* Almost every single time I go to a new week (or open the app to see the current week) there is a loading spinner that either takes 30 seconds to load everything or just forever spins and doesn’t load anything. It basically never loads in a timely manner the first time. ### 4/5 — Good *2025-02-12, version 4.1.17* Good app, italian languages? Work out builder in app? ### 4/5 — Merging *2025-01-10* I have noticed that you are able to pick and choose which activity you want to merge with the assigned activity from coaches. I can’t help but want a feature where you can merge the activities that you actually do. So, if I were to run 5 miles, but it’s in 5 different activities, I would like a feature where we can move all 5 of those activities into 1 activity with 5 miles and all of the data averaged out. PLEASE MAKE THIS!!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 ### 4/5 — Widgets don’t work iOS 18 *2024-10-31* The widgets no longer work when selecting the “Tint” option to customise the Home Screen in iOS 18. The widget just appears all white. Please update to fix :) ### 3/5 — Metric issues *2024-10-30, version 4.1.12* Distance displays in imperial in workout even though profile set to metric. ### 4/5 — Great but minor bugs *2023-11-14* Love (LOVE) the Apple Watch workout integration, but currently there is a bug where if you do a Final Surge workout that is synced the the Apple Watch (as opposed to just an Outdoor Run or something on the watch) then the Final Surge app will not sync it up and will think you did not run. Example: I did a Final Surge synced run on Sunday so that it would notify me when out of pace. The app did not pick up that I did the work out. This morning I did just and Outdoor Run open goal work out on my Apple Watch and the Final Surge app synced it immediately. ### 5/5 — Ottima app per pianificare allenamenti *2023-10-13, version 4.0.6* Con l’ausilio del PC permette di pianificare allenamenti strutturati per l’app workout di Apple Watch. Può servire come diario di allenamento. ### 3/5 — New update crashes *2023-10-06* Love the app so far for my marathon training plan. I’m also glad the latest update syncs directly with Apple Health and Apple Watch. However, when I set it to push upcoming workouts to my Watch, it causes the app to crash. Hopefully a further update fixes this bug. **Developer response:** Love that you are digging into the new app and utilizing structured workouts! Could you email support@finalsurge.com so that we can troubleshoot this with you? ### 2/5 — Неудобное приложение *2023-08-11* Ужасно неудобное приложение. Тренировки из strava часто не синхронизируются. Для просмотра видео требуется включать vpn. Крайне неудобно ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No Race Options Except for Run *2026-05-01, version 4.3.6* Runners do other disciplines, too, for example triathlon. Under activity type, can race options be added for cycling, swimming, and triathlon? Right now the only race option is for running, at least in the basic athlete version. ### 1/5 — Beware if you use it with iOS *2026-01-11, version 4.3.4* I’ve had nothing but trouble with this app. I use it with iPhone and Apple Watch. Tech support has basically blamed all of my issues on Apple, conveniently. Maybe this app works better with android. But if you use Apple products I DO NOT recommend using this app. I can’t turn off the voice prompt, which is incredibly annoying. Additionally my iPhone was clocking my pace at 8:58 in the fitness app while Final Surge was clocking it at 13:08. I shared time stamped screen shots to illustrate this. But “it’s Apple” that’s the issue. This app is a total joke. And tech support is lazy and disinterested in getting to the real root of these issues. Do not recommend. ### 1/5 — Плохо *2024-10-14* Перестал загружать тренировки в часы. ### 1/5 — What is this connection to the server error? Crazy *2024-02-07* I take money from ppl for this! It shall be free ### 1/5 — Apple health *2023-11-09, version 4.0.14* Still many problems with synchronization of apple watch and the app, sometimes I can see my coaches after 3-4 hours, sometimes never, for example, my yesterday coach has been lost somewhere ### 1/5 — Crashed after last update *2023-07-02* After last update application continuously crashed after login page. ### 1/5 — New version crashes *2023-06-30, version 3.91.0* Hey, the new version crashes every time you try to open the app. I deleted and downloaded again and still not working ### 1/5 — No sirve *2023-06-30, version 3.91.0* Abre la aplicación y no pasan mas de 3 segundos y se cierra y no me deja entrar ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work well with Apple Watch *2023-06-24* The app is a huge pain to get workouts from Apple Watch to sync through. I had to download a second app to push the data through and even then it doesn’t take in mile splits unless you are creating new intervals/segments on the watch. Overall quite frustrating that the integration is so bad but Apple Watch works fine with Strava and Training Peaks **Developer response:** Check out the newest release -- In the Final Surge 4.0 app, you can connect to Apple Health and sync structured workouts to your Apple Watch. We'd love for you to consider a 5-star review after you've used the new features! ### 1/5 — Paid $50 for training plan I couldn’t read *2022-01-15, version 3.9.92* Font is way too light and too small on your training plans. Users should be able to adjust ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Top 10 Running Apps *2026-04-13* Love this app, connects the coaches with the runners, and allows seamless planning and integration, especially with Garmin. I’ve had no problems with this app at all. The devs are awesome too, very responsive and helpful. Definitely recommend this, especially if you are a coach! ### 5/5 — Хз *2025-10-10* Не знаю, у кого там какие проблемы. Приложение работают как часы. Тренер рисует план - план синхронизируется с часами (Garmin) на раз два. Тренировка должна быть сделана через workout builder. В этом случае и автоматически и вручную можно синхронизировать с connect. Само приложение имеет приличный набор для анализа тренировок уже в бесплатной версии. Расхождения по среднему ЧСС иногда присутствует (рисует в меньшую сторону на 1 удар) но в целом скорее уровень погрешности. В основном отличное приложение! ### 5/5 — Estupenda aplicación *2025-01-22, version 4.1.16* Very useful for reviewing the results of training. I'm looking forward to them adding the possibility of designing structured workouts designed in the app (just like it can already be done on the web) Muy útil para revisar los resultados de los entrenamientos. Estoy deseando que añadan la posibilidad de diseñar entrenamientos estructurados diseñados en la app (igual que ya se puede hacer en la web) ### 5/5 — Everyone should try this! *2024-10-15* Stacked with features and easy on the retinas. I’ve been using Final Surge for a few weeks, and I’m impressed. It mixes features from other training apps, but allows you to create, edit, move and add comments to as many training day plans as desired or necessary. After training, you can add comments and complete a brief scale summarising the session. Beyond other apps I’ve seen, you can quickly add injuries, soreness and cramps to your completed session. And it is easy since the app depicts a body, and you just click where and when the pain occurred. This level of detail and ease is amazing. Plus, Garmin workouts can be synced to the app. If this app ever stops, I will be sad. ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2024-08-25, version 4.1.4* I’m a physical therapist and running coach, and FS is absolutely perfect for building running-related programs! No complaints — well done, Final Surge! ### 5/5 — Great improvements keep happening *2024-08-21* Every time I think this app is probably the best coaching app on the market they release something else and make it better. Never satisfied they keep giving us more easy to use tools. As a high school track and cross country coach this is my must use app. ### 5/5 — Phenomenal App *2024-03-23* The iOS app along with the web app (beta mode) are phenomenal and truly insightful as an athlete. There were reviews that the UI is terrible but the developer has improved and it looks amazing. Would recommend ### 5/5 — AJ Running Coach *2023-10-25, version 4.0.11* Absolutely love this app! Any questions I have had, the team have replied very quickly and helped. All of my athletes love how easy the app is to use and they speak highly of the new Apple feature of sending workouts to the Apple Watch Highly recommend for any online coach or athlete (I use it for my own training plans) AJ ### 5/5 — Reliable and intuitive from a company that cares! *2023-10-24* My company has used Final Surge for training youth and adult endurance sports athletes for over seven years now, and the software just keeps getting better! This latest update is a giant leap! And you don’t have to be a coach like us to see how good their software is. You’ll love using this for yourself as an athlete. This is truly a great app! ### 5/5 — Always improving *2023-10-24* Tim and the crew at Final Surge have made some major upgrades! Always adding what coaches are asking for. If you coach athletes and need a place to keep everything central, Final Surge is the place to do it. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
