Great Free App!

I found and downloaded this app after wanting to get back into running and realizing couch to 5k is no longer free. I was so disappointed one of my favorite apps was now forcing you to pay. I downloaded this app on a whim and it is GREAT! Probably cleaner and more straightforward than couch to 5k and love that it’s free! Thanks for creating!

Great app!

Completely free and great easy to use UI. Finished the program!

This is what goal-based fitness apps should be

I’m back to running 5K from a one year hiatus. I wanted a streamlined app that was easy to use and straightforward for intervals. This app is wonderful, and I love that you can progress further to the 10K. Just enough in it to personalize it, but no ads and no glitches. Love it.

Great to ease into running

I’m just about done with Week 5 but so far this app has been fantastic. It’s well structured and helps to build your endurance and distance gradually without overdoing it. I only wish I had started running sooner but better late than never!

I highly recommend this app and you will see results if you dedicate the time and effort into following the program!

Easy but hard

This plan is very easy to follow along and no ads to boot. Every thing ran smoothly and using it in the Apple Watch is a breeze. As a person who has not ran in almost 40 years, I found this plan, using the app, easy to learn but the runs are always very hard. But in a good way. I’m encouraged to go further.

Made me like running

On week 6 of this app and I am very happy with it. Started out barely being able to run for 2 mins at a time and now I can do 20 fairly easily. Had to restart week 4 because it kicked my butt, but otherwise all the weeks have been great. I look forward to my runs now and when I finish the 5k I plan to do the 10k mode.

Love it!

Integrates nicely so the audio cues come through whatever music app I’m listening to. I love the simple and straightforward interface.

Exactly what I needed to start running

So many couch to 5K apps are paid now, which is so annoying if you’re looking to start a free form of exercise. This app was perfect - it’s free, walked me through the entire program, and was super simple and easy to use. I finished all 9 weeks and really appreciate that it exists!

THE running app

One of the few app purchases I’ll ever make, and it was mostly because I so appreciate what this developer did. The easiest best running app I’ve ever used, with none of the junk. I’ve used it for years now. Upgrade to premium and support this one!

Running is Free! App is Perfect for Beginners

I'm a complete beginner at running, and I'm finding this app to be perfect for what I need to get started. I love the simple and straightforward interface with no distracting ads or subscriptions that other runnings apps are trying to sell. Never in my life did I think I'd ever enjoy running, but now I look forward to making progress each week. Thank you for making this app!

Exactly what a needed

Great app for a great price (free!) The core features are not locked behind a paywall, only some nice extras that you may want. The premium is also a one-time payment, which is fantastic. Simple but effective for what its made for. I would highly recommend! Thank you.

Great option for a better price!

I absolutely love this app! It has training to work you up to a 5k distance. It remembers your progress and prompts you to change your pace. Cost is affordable and a great deal for the training support you get!!

Great lightweight app!

Easy to use, doesn’t crash or do weird things, got me back from 2 injuries over the last 4 years. The free plan is the really the full app but I paid bc I use it so much (and the accents were fun to choose from)

Great way to get into running

I’ve really enjoyed this app so far! Its interface is simple and straightforward, which makes it very approachable in my opinion. There is no login or account set up. It’s fairly basic, with no way to track your mileage, but I think that is the appeal! You aren’t focused on hitting a certain mile time, you can just focus on running the set time per week. I also really appreciate how it splits up the run/walk times per week by making it gradually longer and longer. Very approachable and I highly recommend if you have struggled to get into running!

Great way to gain independence as a new runner!

Easy to use, easy to monitor, free app…worked for me at the age of 52 I am prepping for my first 5k

Great motivation

Keeps me motivated. Not intrusive while running. Encouraging!

Good

Has helped me do so much more with this app

Great app for new runners

Love the ease of use and sequencing of running/walking. I feel confident that this app will safely guide me in training to complete a 5k.

Simple and effective!

This app has just the right amount of features to get you into and keep you running. Love it

Perfect for Beginners

I’m a complete beginner with absolutely no running experience, and I’m already loving the Just Run app! I’m only in my second week, but the app makes it so easy to get started and stay motivated. The alternating running and walking intervals are perfect for beginners and make it feel manageable instead of overwhelming. I love that I can just follow the prompts and focus on keeping going without having to worry about timing anything myself. It’s made running feel much more approachable, and I’m actually excited to keep going and see how I improve. Highly recommend for anyone who is new to running!
