Really good

Does the job!

Excellent!

Love that I can listen to music or a podcast. Easy and clear to listen to instructions and love that it tracks my speed and distance

Отличное приложение для новичков в беге!

Не люблю бегать, но с этим приложением после первой пробежки было желание продолжать заниматься, а не бросить это занятие)

Great app

Keeps me motivated and definitely helped me build my stamina up.

Fantastic

This a great app to get back into running. I haven’t ran consistently in recent years so for easing back into running with this app has helped me to not become overwhelmed with going all out. Each workout makes me feel like I accomplished a goal for the day. I’m actually using the app everyday instead of 3 days a week to speed up my progress. And it seems to be working out fine. Great app to get back into running !!
