Very disappointing as it was a run I really wanted to see all my efforts for & it didn’t show my run or give me the option to save it. First time I have had my music on & not just the voiceover. All my other runs I have had the voiceover on, no music & everything has been mapped out. ### 1/5 — No money *2021-09-08, version 1.1.7* Should not have to pay ### 1/5 — Expensive relative to available features *2021-08-23* I found a lack of flexibility with training plans where you had to pick between 1 and 3 days per week for running, nothing more. It would be nice to be able to select say 4 or 5 days a week. I found with the training plans, some runs say you should say jog for a time period then do runs/sprints for certain distances then walk. If I have my phone in an inaccessible place where I can’t see the screen, it’s important to get audio feedback on what I’m up to and what I need to do next. How do I know when to switch from jog to run if I don’t get an audio message to do so? The only audio cues you can select are distance based milestones which aren’t useful when the training plan is telling you to run for certain times. If you hold your phone in your hand or can look at the screen for the sprint/walk segments, this app works well. If you don’t have access to the phone screen during your run, I find it unusable. **Developer response:** We are really sad that you are dissatisfied. To improve our app can you explain in details what is not working or could be improved? ### 1/5 — Оптимизации нет *2021-08-11* Приложение чисто для одной тренировке. Второй раз не сможете зайти выкидывают. Придётся каждый раз по новой скачивать. И минус в этом это то, что ваши данные из приложения стираются. А так прекрасное приложение. Но к сожалению выкидывает. ### 5/5 — This app is amazing!! *2021-08-06, version 1.1.6* Honestly this app has helped me a lot it takes all the negativity and just puts in positivity in just minutes I love this app so much and add on to that it’s FREE!!! Trust me it’s not like boring old subscriptions 5 stars all the way!!!. ### 2/5 — Happy *2021-08-06, version 1.1.5* Happy ### 1/5 — Apple Watch *2021-07-27, version 1.1.5* Need Apple Watch access ### 5/5 — Honestly brilliant *2021-07-14, version 1.1.3* I can’t believe that this app is free it’s so easy to use and simple and there’s no stupid subscription like others so I can run and track what time I did it in how far I went how many calories I lost and I can challenge myself with goals and time myself to see how far I went within a period like 5 mins I got 1.2 miles ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t measure distance properly *2025-10-24, version 1.4.1* Wrong compared to health app on iPhone about distance run ### 1/5 — It’s not great *2024-10-22, version 1.4.1* On paper, it looks good. Good graphics, accurate info. But when I go to record a run, it is measured in kilometers. Being American, I don’t know what a kilometer is. But when I go to settings to try to change it, it crashes and kicks me from the app. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t measure correctly *2023-06-06, version 1.4.1* Registered my run as 1.6km when it was 5km instead. ### 1/5 — Crashes. Deleted. *2022-07-03, version 1.4* Thought I’d give it a try I used a lot of running apps in the past. Problem is that when I tried to select setting ‘tap the cog icon’ the app crashes every time. Therefore this is deleted. I have an iPhone 13 Pro and Apple Watch 7 so should be tested against latest hardware! ### 1/5 — Poor *2022-06-07, version 1.4* Lost my workout halfway through my exercise when I was changing music!! Definitely won’t use again. ### 1/5 — Help *2022-03-21, version 1.2* How can I delete some of my runs? ### 1/5 — No compatibility consideration for Apple Watch *2021-12-28, version 1.2* I paid for subscription wanting to use the marathon plan with my Apple Watch. Therefore expecting that I can use my Apple Watch when doing the specific workouts required in the program, however you cannot do this as a feature, so if you want HR measurements or to use your Watch you need to set both the phone app to the run as well as the Watch. This leads to two separate runs being recorded, completely messing up the metrics. I.e. your phone says you did a 10k run, your Watch says you did a 10k run, but it doesn’t link these even though they are the same time etc. Additionally, even though I’ve completed the days workout according to the training plan, it shows up as incomplete. So it’s not even tracking the duplicates properly. At £4 a week, it’s not worth it. Fix the Watch compatibility. If all you’re using it for is to record a run, use the Zones app, Nike Run app, or even the native apple app. 0/10 ### 1/5 — Not for beginners *2021-10-31, version 1.1.9* The prerequisite for all plans is an 8’ mile or faster. ### 1/5 — Sa *2021-10-22, version 1.1.9* It’s not free at all ### 1/5 — Not what I thought *2021-10-16, version 1.1.9* I purchased the annual pass for this app with high hopes. Once I was into the app I was disappointed with the interface. There are not any ways to change the program you’ve selected once you’ve chosen it. There is also no way to seemingly request a refund. I feel like I just threw 66 bucks out the window! I’m hoping that someone reads this and sees that I’ve been trying to cancel my subscription. I literally just downloaded it, andHave had it for less than one hour. There is no way to request a refund within the app itself and no way that I can see to contact support. Save your money! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Duncan mall *2023-07-17, version 1.4.1* Duncan mall ### 5/5 — 🏈 *2023-01-01, version 1.4.1* Helps me with football a lot 🏈 ### 5/5 — Cool I just want dark mode *2022-06-21, version 1.4* Love the app along with Nutri coach and fitness coach. I just want a dark mode like the others to have something easy on the eyes. Other than that great app! ### 5/5 — Problem *2022-03-30, version 1.3* Would you please tell me how can I change units? Lbs to kg? I can’t find it in this app ### 5/5 — AMAZING!!! *2022-02-09, version 1.2* This app is amazing and has inspired me to run 10k a day. You don’t have to run 10k you can change it by setting goals and you can pause the workout. Not only that but it also tells you your pace and elevation. ### 5/5 — Genial *2021-12-08, version 1.2* Te dice las calorías que quemas y los kilómetros que corres ### 5/5 — Great *2021-10-22, version 1.1.9* Most amazing running/fitness app out there ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2021-10-21, version 1.1.9* I was planning to try put this app so I could run faster and longer in my cross country and I got 1st! ### 5/5 — Running coach *2021-10-05, version 1.1.8* It’s awesome ### 5/5 — Top *2021-08-29* Super je recommande --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
