### 2/5 — Great customizable features if you don’t need to listen to any other audio source while you run

*2026-04-25, version 5.7*

Major flaw is not being able to listen to any audio sources while you run. You won’t get any notifications of interval changes, either haptic or audio notifications.

### 4/5 — Tolle App

*2025-11-03*

Ich habe lange Zeit nach einer App gesucht, die mir ohne Ballast und unnötige Funktionen ermöglicht. Gefunden :-) wenn die Entwickler jetzt noch eine Integration mit Apple Kurzbefehle einbauen, bin ich wunschlos

### 3/5 — Timer is fine..

*2025-07-15, version 5.5*

Distance is off

### 4/5 — Doesn’t auto save

*2025-06-25, version 5.5*

Just doesn’t do all the functions I need, I’ve been using multiple apps for all the things and forgot to “save” my last 5k run, so I’m going to find one app that does it all I.e. heart rate, route map, interval paces for run/walk

### 3/5 — Mileage is WAY off

*2025-05-27, version 5.5*

I like this app for time tracking but DO NOT trust it for mileage. I’m not sure how it’s so off. I ran with my husband the other day and we check the apps mileage vs watches and it added on an extra mile. We did a bother short track and again it added like another .7 miles. I don’t know where it’s getting these distances from but use something else if you really want to check your mileage.

### 4/5 — Has been great until recently

*2025-03-15, version 5.5*

App is great for keeping track of my mileage and heart rate etc. However, here lately I’ll be using my watch alone without the phone and it shows to be working/tracking the time and distance. Then once I am done, I slide it over to stop and it pops a message up and doesn’t count the run at all. It has done this twice but one of the two times it eventually added the mileage. I wish there were a way I could add a run that didn’t get tracked or maybe some bike mileage so I can keep tracking something for the month.

### 4/5 — Great for “Jeffing”

*2025-01-30, version 5.5*

Perfect little app for doing the run-walk-run method of running, or “Jeffing”. My only grumble is that sometimes the app is out by about 400 metres when my Apple Watch workout is running alongside it. E.g app said distance achieved (5k) when Apple Watch Ultra had only clocked 4.6k.

### 4/5 — RunInterval

*2024-10-29, version 5.5*

Good but the history is not showing all my previous custom runs.

### 3/5 — Great on time. Not so great at volume level

*2024-10-10, version 5.5*

I’ve been using this for a few weeks and overall it’s really useful. The only problem I’ve got is I use it to announce times I don’t use earbuds and the voice settings are so low. It’s incredibly difficult to hear. I’m over traffic and breathing and my feet. So I’d say this is great if you’re using earbuds not so great if you’re trying to hear announcements. While running outdoors, I’ll note I have not tried general phone accessibility settings yet, but I haven’t had this problem with any other running app I’ve ever used.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-10-05, version 5.5*

Love it , it has all what I need. Easy to use .

### 4/5 — Has 99% of what I want

*2024-08-29*

Excellent app and subscription free. The only thing I really want that is missing is the ability to put target pace for each interval.

### 4/5 — ONE thing missing

*2024-08-26, version 5.5*

the only reason i don’t give 5 stars is because the count in/out and any voice overs don’t play in your headphones if you’re listening to music. i wish it did because then it would be perfect!

### 1/5 — Poor customer support

*2026-06-22, version 6.1*

Wow your customer service folks have a bit of an attitude about them. Time to stop using the app.

### 1/5 — it doesn’t let me upload my runs to strava

*2025-09-02, version 5.7*

😑

### 1/5 — Pas content

*2025-08-07, version 5.5*

Ne calcule pas Km fait

### 1/5 — Have to have the app open

*2025-06-05, version 5.5*

Makes it pointless

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2025-05-08*

Garbage  app

### 1/5 — Timer shuts off with phone

*2025-03-18, version 5.5*

The timer shuts off when the phone automatically goes to sleep. It only begins to start recording once the phone is woken up. So every time I run for a set time, I don’t know when that is.

### 1/5 — Nefasta

*2024-11-30, version 5.5*

No notifica de los tiempos cuando el móvil está bloqueado, muy mala.

### 1/5 — Distance tracking completely wrong and app crashed

*2024-10-03, version 5.5*

Distance tracking was totally wrong - at one point, the timer was still running, but the distance was stuck at “25meters left” for 5 minutes. Then the app crashed and it didn’t save my run info. I regret buying this app.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2024-02-05, version 5.3*

You can’t get notifications from Apple Watch through ear buds useless save your 2.50

### 1/5 — Sound doesn’t work so might as well just look at a watch

*2023-08-31, version 5.2*

Pointless

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great for outside intervals

*2026-08-22, version 6.1*

Easy to set up and adjust. Also works great from the Watch app while you’re out running.

### 5/5 — LOVE

*2026-05-30, version 5.7*

Great functionality and excellent price. Reliable app, easy to use.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2026-04-02, version 5.7*

This turned out to be just what I was looking for. I can customize it or use the suggested intervals. It was super cheap for the paid version and it was totally worth it because they aren’t trying to charge you a monthly fee to keep using the app, which I thought was pretty sweet!

### 5/5 — Amazing App!!!

*2025-12-22, version 5.7*

Very straightforward to use and provides really helpful data for workout.

### 5/5 — Simple, functional and glitch free.

*2025-10-25, version 5.2*

Easy to use app that is perfect for customising your intervals to suit your plan, or a push of the button records a long run. Syncs with the Apple Watch and doesn’t se to get glitches. Have been using this for years and love it.

### 5/5 — Übersichtlich

*2025-05-04*

Sehr gut, übersichtlich und leicht zu bedienen. Besser wäre noch, wenn der Startton für langsame Intervalle ein anderer wäre als der für schnelle.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2025-05-01, version 5.5*

Good app

### 5/5 — Ottima

*2025-03-20, version 5.5*

Ottima su Apple Watch, si può modificare o creare un allenamento di ripetute in un attimo, cosa che app più gettonate non permettono di fare.

### 5/5 — Very Useful App

*2025-02-26, version 5.5*

I have been using this App to get me comfortably round Half Marathons at the age of 73 and without much in the way of soreness the following day.
Partly due to the confidence this App gives me (+ extra gym work and the right mindset this year) I have now entered my first ever Full Marathon. Without the help of an App like this I would not have thought this would ever be possible for me to do. The only thing I would have preferred would be the option to have the extra option of ‘Walk’ instead of only ‘Run Hard’ or ‘Run Easy’.
(I use ‘Run Easy’ when I want ‘Walk’). It’s not a deal breaker!

### 5/5 — Love This App

*2024-10-29, version 5.5*

I absolutely love this App! It helps me so much with doing my interval run & meeting my Mile marker! I love seeing the history and my progress! I wish 1 thing is that I could make it recognized in the Focus App Settings that when it’s in Use my phone goes into Do Not Disturb but I’m unable to select this app to add. But still give this app 5 Stars
