Best ever

I bought this about 10 years ago and I use it every year to get myself started and guide my runs either a supportive and encouraging yet minimal audio track. It works seemlessly with podcasts and the workout app. I tried more expensive ones but they just couldn’t compare.

Perfect

I am 5’7” and 80kg and I am really enjoying this app. Her voice is lovely and you can toggle for less ‘chat’ so I can listen to music or an audiobook. I have used this in the past as my first step into training for the London Marathon. Highly recommend.

The best C25K app!

I’ve had this app for years. It’s stayed with me through fitness and couch potato. I always use it to pace me back to running.

Perfect

A great little app, simple to use, very clear and well put together. For me the best part are the voice prompts. These come in at halfway through a run and 10 seconds from the end of a run. This feature is excellent!

Simple but great app

I have used this to get back into running every spring for years. It’s simple, but it works. Two things I wish it had were Apple Watch integration and the ability to pause what you’re listening to rather than just lower the volume . Other than that it’s a very good and useful app.

Crashing

I have used this app for a few years (and loved it) but now it’s crashing and I can’t open it anymore. Very sad and frustrating.

App crashes

Downloaded it, paid $2 but the app crashes every time i try to open it

Will not open

I was excited to try this app after reading all the good review reviews. Unfortunately after paying for and downloading this app, it now will not open. Just flashes a black screen and then goes back to my home screen. A frustrating waste of money

Love this app

I’ve had this app for many years. Due to an injury, I hadn’t been able to run in several years. Now I’m on the road to recovery, I’m happy to see the app is still available and I’m ready to start using it again.

Not Apple Watch Compatible

So I really love this app. It’s the only app that’s helped me to continue running for the first time. However, it says that it is Apple Watch compatible but it’s not. I hate running with my phone so I will sadly have to find a new app.

Highly recommend

This app has helped me and many friends who NEVER run and curious but were reluctant to start. It’s easy to follow, achievable and soon becoming addictive and rewarding after the first week. thank you!!!

App opens and crashes

On iPhone 12 iOS 18.3.2. The Get Running app opens and immediately crashes. I’ve done all suggested things to remedy and it doesn’t do anything.

Love this app

I love this app and have used it for years to help me start and re-start running. Please update it, it’s currently unusable as it crashes on opening. I’ve tried reinstalling and still having the same problem!

Doesn’t open!

Paid for it, Downloaded it, doesn’t open and no way to get support - completely not impressed since the app was written up as being one of the “best of” in its class. Would love some support if anyone reads this review!

Great App

I have used this app on and off for many years. My running career waxes and wanes but anytime I decide to pick it back up and challenge myself to a 5k this program gets me right back in the swing of things. Absolutely recommend!

New runner

Best app I’ve tried and I keep coming back. Thanks!!

Get running!

I used to live this app, but it no longer works. I have tried all the fixes and I can’t make to work. I am wondering if there is a problem with the app. Looks like I will have to find another running. So sad I like to english accent of the couch!

Best Running App Ever

If you are starting from zero, this is the absolute best app for you. No kidding, I’ve had it for years. And I’ve used it to (re)start running multiple times. It’s simple, nothing fancy, just do that they tell you to do, and take your time!

Trust me. Just download the app!

Love

This is app is so much better than any of the other running apps. I got to my goal of running 30 minutes without stopping. Thank you so much. I can listen to a podcast but still hear the encouragement coming through.

Love it!

I’ve had this app for years. I’m not a consistent runner, so every season when I get the urge, I go back to this app to get back into it.
