### 5/5 — Intuitive and very helpful

*2026-08-26*

In short, I was new to running and this app has made my journey pretty structured. Ended up subbing to the Runna+Strava bundled membership.

### 5/5 — My go-to

*2026-08-26, version 8.50.2*

Absolutely love the Runna app!!!

### 4/5 — Good when it works

*2026-08-25, version 8.50.2*

This app does a pretty good job overall in planning your training schedule for a race. However, I find it to be quite buggy and it could also use some enhancements. For the bugs the sync often fails. I’ve had issues with re-organizing a plan, the app would crash. I also noticed the heart rate sync with my Apple Watch does not match. Suggestion for enhancement, when using the app timer for a set. It has a noise when you click the timer to start. Perhaps it would be a good idea to also have a bell/noise when the time has ended.

### 5/5 — Great training app

*2026-08-25, version 8.50.2*

I am improving every week following the coaching sessions

### 5/5 — Amazing programs

*2026-08-24*

I really love running with Runna I find the programs to be very helpful in slowing me down so that I make improvements instead of running too fast all the time.

### 5/5 — Great planning

*2026-08-24, version 8.50.2*

Great planning but sometimes feels like the prediction are a little exaggerated.

### 2/5 — Corri e não marcou acho que a integração com o relógio é ruim
