### 1/5 — Scammy. Would never recommend.

*2026-08-31*

Absolutely terrible cancellation flow. You never get the email they claim they send to cancel and they bill you anyways. Further if you delete your account it doesn’t delete your subscription. As someone working in tech that’s pretty sus considering stripe is connected to the user profile typically so when you cancel your subscription is cancelled - meaning they’re storing user data/payment data separate from one another and so they still maintain your data after you delete your account. Absolutely terrible customer support and the app itself is okay but once you create a program you can’t leave it or change goals intuitively anywhere which means you’re stuck. I’ve requested a refund twice, crickets. Still waiting for a refund and to have my account cancelled. Will never recommend. Filing a report with VISA to ensure I don’t get charged again.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-08-27*

Would give it even one star Charged twice $44.79 us $$ when app was canceled 
Will not refund $$ scam

### 5/5 — Just start!

*2026-08-27*

Loving it so far. I will do it again tomorrow morning. Every journey starts with the first step. Just keep making first steps every day until the finish line.

### 4/5 — So far so good

*2026-08-24*

I like the coaching aspect of this app, but it is very easy to miss the cue to start running or increase your speed for the faster intervals.  A 5 or 10 second warning would be helpful to know that your interval is about to begin.  Even better would be a watch app, so that I don’t have to run with my phone in my hand or continuously pulling it out of my pouch.  This app has excellent potential and hopefully with more subscribers, it will be able to tweak the details.

**Developer response:** Thank you — really glad the coaching is landing for you. Giving runners a clearer heads-up before an interval changes is exactly the kind of refinement we're working on, so keep an eye out in upcoming updates. A native watch experience is also in development, which should make it much easier to leave the phone in your pocket. We appreciate you seeing the potential here — there's a lot more coming, and feedback like this helps us shape it. Happy running!

### 1/5 — Disappointing and Way Too Expensive

*2026-08-23*

Very disappointed with this app. It’s far too expensive for such limited features. There are free apps that are much better and offer more functionality. I also don’t really see where the “AI” is in this app—it feels more like a basic training app than a true AI running coach. For the price, I expected much more.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the honest feedback. Ruut is built as an AI running coach — your plan is generated around your current level, goal distance, and the days you can run, and it adapts as you progress, with pacing cues in your ear and educational content to help you train smarter and avoid injury. We're continuously adding to that coaching experience and deepening what the AI does for you, so there's more coming that we think will make the value clearer. If you'd like help getting the most out of your plan, we'd genuinely welcome the chance — reach us anytime at support@ruutlabs.com.

### 5/5 — First Run!

*2026-08-23, version 1.2.4*

Hard

### 1/5 — Fraudulent Company

*2026-08-22, version 1.2.4*

I signed up for an account in April, found out the app didn’t work at all, and canceled my subscription. They reactivated it without permission in June and charged me an additional $34.99. Today, I was charged an additional $89.99. Support has offered me a pathetic “goodwill” offer where they will refund half of the $89.99 charge for a subscription I canceled back in April for an app that does not work.

### 5/5 — Top départ

*2026-08-19*

Après ma première course, je suis déjà ravie de cette appli !

**Developer response:** Merci Aude ! 👏 Quel plaisir de vous accompagner dès votre première course. Ce n'est que le début, bonne route !

### 5/5 — Coach au top

*2026-08-17*

Au top

**Developer response:** Merci beaucoup ! 👏 Ravis de vous accompagner dans vos courses. Bonne route !

### 1/5 — Charged but didn’t sign up

*2026-08-17*

I downloaded the app but never signed up to their services and was charged £99. No email, no notification, nothing. Just took my money hoping I wouldn’t notice. Am now raising a dispute with my bank. Nobody should be charged simply for downloading an app. Express consent to be charged should - at a minimum - be mandatory

**Developer response:** Thank you for flagging this, and we're sorry for the worry this has caused. A charge like this shouldn't happen without a subscription being started, so we'd like to look into exactly what went through on your account and get it sorted. Please email us at support@ruutlabs.com and we'll investigate right away and make things right. You can also review or manage your subscription anytime in Settings → Membership.
