Nice interface; phone tethered

This app has a nice interface, perhaps the nicest of all the similar apps I’ve tried. Unfortunately, though, it depends more than most on a phone connection, which caused me to lose data a few times.

Response from developer

Hi thanks for writing a review! Helium definitely supports executing workouts without your phone! That was one of my main design goals. Sorry to hear about your data loss. Please reach out to support@helium.fit and let me know the details!

Super clean, simple and easy to use

Encountered several bugs which I reported to Mike, the developer, who graciously guided me every step of the way to stamp them out. Most responsive and responsible developer I’ve interacted with in a while. Well-worth the subscription if you are seeking an endurance-focused running app that offers customizable intervals.

Intuitive, smart, motivating

I've been using the Helium app for about 5 weeks and am a big fan. I've been running for years now but have not found an easily accessible and fun way to truly measure and improve my performance. The Helium app is already showing results for me. I like the approach of having different plans based on different goals and then having a schedule that motivates me to go out and improve. I love the fact that this app comes from a single developer who did the research and whose app beats the socks off of apps from huge corporations.

😍 thanks so much for writing a review! Don't hesitate to reach out with any feedback or suggestions. I love hearing from folks using the app!

Not free

Stupid app is not free. Never said anything about a trial until installed. Deleted.

Don’t bother unless willing to pay for unknown

App immediately tries to initiate trial with no ability to see interface before committing. Analyses workouts and sets zones set for American miles and not kilometers with no indication one can set to proper standard. Deleted.

Response from developer

Hi there. Thank you for your feedback. I’m so sorry to hear you didn’t find my app useful! Distance units can be changed to Kilometers in the Profile tab. I’ve tried to make it easy to test the app before purchasing: The two-week trial unlocks all features to give you a chance to see if it’s right for you. You can cancel anytime during the trial to avoid being charged for the subscription. You’ll even get an email reminder right before the trial ends in case you forget. ✌️
