### 3/5 — Ok functionality but interruptive

*2024-06-09*

Hello,
Thanks for designing and developing the Run Interval app. While it’s pretty easy to use and does what’s needed for the most part, for your next release update would you PLEASE allow runners to turn off the “Beeps at minute mark” feature? The “silent“ option is not good enough because not only is it not completely silent, it also momentarily turns down/lowers our music during the “silent” period. No runner wants their music volume interrupted involuntarily. Also, what does it even mean to have “a period of silence during a workout?” Is this feature looking for us to be making noise or something while we’re running? Since this an unnecessary and intrusive feature for some of runners—please add an option to turn this completely off; the “silent” option is still too interruptive. 

Thanks!

System: iOS 17.5.1
App-version: 1.9.3

### 1/5 — Interrupts Music Every Minute Even on Silent

*2021-04-11*

This app gas a minute counter that turns down your music every minute — EVEN WHEN YOU PUT THE MINUTE COUNTER ON SILENT MODE. I want my 1.99 back!!

### 1/5 — Nice concept but doesn’t work

*2020-07-21*

Used this today, day 1....started well but half way through workout it just stopped and then there was no way to get back to the same point or even to start over the workout and push a start button at my previous time marker   Super disappointed and trying to cancel. Work out the functionality and try again.

### 1/5 — Not customizable at all

*2020-02-16, version 1.9.3*

Terrible app, it is not customizable the warm up if only a minute or less. The run interval is only in time you can not put distance or pace so it is not an app for runners.

### 5/5 — Customizable

*2018-03-27, version 1.9*

Pros: 
- customizable 
- you can add half minutes 

Cons:
- has skipped entire walk parts of the cycle jumping from run to run
- beeps seemingly randomly 

Great app but please fix!!

### 4/5 — Great but No Apple Watch App?

*2017-10-02*

I LOVE this app! Will you be coming up with the Apple Watch version of this app soon?

### 4/5 — Good but won't post to Facebook!

*2017-05-17*

I really like this interval app. I've used it to, er, restart my running habit just about every year after I inevitably fall off the wagon. I like the simplicity of it, and the directness of the spoken instructions during a run - nothing gimmicky, just a direction. My only criticism is that it never allows me to post to Facebook! I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app multiple times, and it still won't post! I don't know what's wrong, but it has been a problem since I first downloaded the app in 2012...

### 4/5 — Still Great, Despite Shortcomings in Customization

*2017-02-14*

Very clean & intuitive. Building new workouts is quick & easy.
I wish I could custom label the steps in the workouts, though. Most timer apps have this feature, allowing you to build more than just running routines. Still, I use this app over the dozen or so others I've tried because it is otherwise perfect. 👍🏽

### 3/5 — Needs Apple Watch Support

*2017-01-05*

Good but, really needs Apple Watch support. Can't use it without my phone so, I don't use it.

### 4/5 — Really good

*2016-12-02*

I'd been looking for a simple interval app for running ever since discovering how this type of running is beneficial (at least for me...). This one is great... it has pre-programmed training as well as the possibility to create individualized workouts (and save them!). No subscription... no ads... really great. Is there an Apple Watch interface in the works? I'd do it would be the cherry on an already lovely cake.
