It's broken

The voice just repeats endlessly

I love this app

I haven’t been able to run for almost 3 years and this app is incredibly helpful. It is very customizable, you can see on a map where you’ve run, and the announcements are wonderful when telling you when to run and walk (could be slightly tweaked though).

Stopped working

This app no longer works on my iPhone. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling…..nope. I love this app, it helped me lose 60 pounds so it’s disappointing I can no longer access it.

Does not open

I purchased in 2018. App no longer opens.

Best training app ever

I bought this app with iTunes card and used had for 10yrs and it really helps to run 30 mins for 5ks
I just did a 5k last night and plan to start training with the app I was doing a different kind of training with a group in a run clinic but this is the best app ever to get into running I love it

Repeat

Nothing but issues since I’ve started using it again. It either speaks in a low-slow-demonic voice, or it speaks like it’s been sucking down helium and talking at about 90 mph. And now it’s begun repeating the information over and over again like a skipping record. I’ve tried reporting the issue to the information given to report, and it always kicks back as undeliverable. This used to be such a good app, I wouldn’t suggest this to anyone.

Horrible do not purchase does not work

Worst app ever. I’ve tried using this off and on for a few years thinking it might get better.

Consumer fraud. Do not buy

Issues with times runs

The 7th run interval is consistently coming in at 1:50 rather than 1:00 leading me to massively over exert myself when I’m starting to get into running. If this isn’t fixed I’ll look into a different app.

Horrible on iPhone

Loved this app on my Android, stinks on iPhone. It never finds a satellite for god, so it won’t properly track runs. Uninstalling it, totally worthless on Apple devices.

Good job

Good job

Upgrade not working/ developer unresponsive

Purchased the unlimited upgrade awhile back that isn't showing on my new phone. I've followed the instructions butt still nothing. I've emailed twice for assistance but received no response.

Recent issue

I love RunDouble and have used it for years. Recently I’ve had a problem where the new interval is not being announced unless I unlock my iPhone. Is there a setting that can be adjusted?

No response

I had been using this app for a long time but gps just stopped working. No response to my request for help

Update your app or refund my money!

I’ve been using the app and paid to do the C25K program. It stopped working with the new iOS (which developers have had access to for testing and development for months now). I contacted Run Double twice and have gotten no response, so now I’m having to use another app. I am very disappointed.

Ap has many bugs

Location is not detecting, option to ‘report a problem’ is not working. I’m stuck with an ap that doesn’t work. I’d like my money back but not sure how to get it since none of the ‘contact’ options work either.

Glitches galore!

I’ve had problems with the app and I’ve sent numerous emails and nobody ever responded. These guys probably don’t actually exist anymore. Do not buy this app.

Great on android, sounds don’t work iOS

I used this app on my crappy old android phone for a few years and totally loved it. I had purchased several running plans on it (which is saying something for a cheapskate like me!) and made it through weeks 7 and 8 several times over the years. Loved that I could run without music playing and track my progress on gps maps, and that there is nothing weight-loss or appearance focused about the platform - I’m in recovery from disordered eating and that sort of stuff can make or break my attempts at taking care of myself. Unfortunately, I just got an iPhone and am finding the app non functional for me in this format. I can’t hear the transition sounds (too quiet even when I turn volume up), and even though I have set the phone to vibrate on transitions it won’t. So, I’ll have to give some other apps a shot for getting my run on.

Paid for garbage

I bought this app and it used to work great. Now it can't find location. Hot garbage and unsupported my devs, it's really unfortunate because it worked well when it ran.

Better in Android?

I used this app a lot when I had an android phone. Loved it. Worked great. Since switching to iOS, it seems as if there are no announcements when the screen is locked, and no setting to tell it to keep the screen from locking. So when your screen locks, the app essentially stops doing what it is designed to do. My phone is a work device, so disabling the screen lock isn’t an option for me, but some apps are able to prevent the screen from locking.

It’s a bummer because the Android version was really great.

Great app for beginners or re-starters

Love the music interface, the programs and open runs on days I’m just wanting track my activity. I like the stats and immediate feedback.
Only tweak would be to remind the user to finish the run. For example if I’m on the phone and then get into my car and don’t remember to click Finish Run it keeps tracking my run and skews the data for that day😸.
