Help!

I love this app. Unfortunately it got deleted when I was switching phones/watches to new ones. It says “Purchased” greyed out and will not let me download it again! I would even pay again if I could just get it to download!!

Too many bugs

The app stops running when the watch locks so you have to constantly unlock whilst running. If playing music via another app, the music paused at each minute/half minute interval, so you have to manually restart you music.

Great idea, unfortunately not quite there yet, and not worth the money.

App quits mid run

Just like the previous review, the app quit after the second interval on my first run. I’d love a refund so I can purchase an app that works. Thank you!

Response from developer

Thanks for your valued feedback! We're excited that the new version of FiveK resolves many of these issues and features a beautiful new Voice Coach recordings. We'd love to hear your thoughts. If you experience issues going forward, please reach out to us info@camphor.digital and we'll work hard to resolve them quickly so you can continue on your running journey!

The voice coach doesn’t work

Good app. I originally thought the voice didn’t work because it starts silently and only speaks at the end of the warm up. It would be better if it announced the start and maybe talked you through what to do in the warm up. More encouragement/tips within the workout would also be better.

It's a start...

I just purchased and used this app for the first time today. It started out good, however the voice notifications are not working. And halfway through my walk/run, The app just stopped working. It reverted back to when I first opened it, and was not aware that I was in the middle of a jog. Please fix these issues, or I will ask for a refund.

Hello, Thanks for reach­ing out. I am sorry that you have not had a good ex­per­i­ence with FiveK as yet. Does this happen every time you attempt to workout with FiveK? If so, could you help me resolve this issue for you by sending a troubleshooting video to stephen_mcmillan@outlook.com. Apologies again. Hopefully we can get this resolved ASAP. Best, Steph­en

Doesn’t work at all

Would only get, perhaps 1 or 2 intervals into a workout before it just went back to the start, and all my buddies who I share my workouts with got a “just did a workout for 20metres” alert.
Terrible app, don’t waste your money.

Freedom from my phone!

As far as I can tell this is the only couch to 5k app that works on the Apple watch without having to bring your phone along. It’s simple without any bells or whistles, but it works great. If you turn off the voice prompts it doesn’t even interrupt your music. I know a lot of people have been looking for this. Look no further.

No voice commands through music?

Only running app through the Apple Watch that promised voice commands for the intervals I could find. However it doesn’t seem to do it?

Great App

Nice intuitive design that’s helping me with my new 5k goals!
