### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2023-03-21*

As a runner with an upcoming half marathon, but hit-or-miss pre-race training in the past, I figured it was time to try something structured. The way Perform hooks into Apple Health is just what I wanted - I get a great training plan without the need to switch to a different running workout app (especially on my Apple Watch, where I always use Apple’s native app).

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-11-27, version 1.0.55*

I love this app. I was looking for a running coach and found this app. I have an amazing coach and I'm accomplishing and surpassing my running goals.

### 5/5 — Expert running help

*2022-11-20, version 1.0.55*

### 5/5 — Great results and easy to use

*2022-09-28, version 1.0.44*

I’ve used various training platforms in the past including TrainingPeaks and TrainerRoad and this is much easier to use. Also my workouts seem higher quality and more individualized on Perform. So happy to have given Perform a chance and have had great results so far!

### 5/5 — Sign up not working

*2022-08-14, version 1.0.20*

I would’ve liked to try this app, but cannot complete the second step for signing up.

### 4/5 — Great app with some minor issues

*2022-08-07, version 1.0.18*

I’ve really enjoyed the coaching and process Perform has. They matched me with a knowledgeable coach who has me on a great Schedule and answers my questions quickly. I trialed the pro plan but honestly I’d prefer if they fixed some of the bugs related to comments not loading properly before I shell out $80/ month.

**Developer response:** Hey! Thanks for using Perform and happy to hear it’s helping. If you send me a note at eric@joinperform.com with more details we can quickly fix any issues you’re having with comments.

### 5/5 — Essential!

*2022-08-04, version 1.0.16*

Using it daily for the last few months. This app has been essential to hold me accountable and I got much better both in terms of pace/distance. Highly recommended.
