Used to love it back in the day but now I use Apple Music and this app doesn’t work ### 3/5 — Lots of crashes on IOS 10.1.1 *2016-11-07, version 2.1.1* I usually have the app running on a particular pace, but it tends to crash periodically during my run. I see it hasn't been updated since 2015. Are there any plans to put out an update for the new IOS? Is this a dead product? ### 5/5 — Just incredible! *2016-05-29* I was looking for something like this and it far exceeded my expectations! I am always running and try to hit the ground in sync with the music. This adjusts to me not the other way around. This truly makes running and walking fun again and something to look forward to! Download this! You will be incredibly happy! Possibly the best app I've purchased since 2007! ### 5/5 — BPM指定の再生ができて便利 *2016-03-07* エアロバイクでトレーニングする時に便利でした。 できれば60BPMから指定できると、更に便利かなぁ ### 5/5 — Addicting *2016-02-27, version 2.1.1* I use this regularly now along with MapMyRun (which deals with distance), runs are definitely easier. ### 5/5 — Works! *2015-12-23, version 2.1.1* I'm 57 and I had never raced before. Using the training plans with this app I ran my first half marathon and marathon this year. I accomplished my personal goals while doing so. Any questions? ### 5/5 — Worth every cent *2015-12-10* So you have a collection of your favorite songs and you want to run or walk in time with them. This is the app for you. You set your pace, tell the app what songs you want to listen to, and the app will play them at your pace. Easily the best app available for your iPhone or Touch in my opinion. App will sense your pace and match the music's beat; or you say you want to walk at 136 beats per minute and TrailMix will take the lead. ### 5/5 — Trail mix pro *2015-10-11, version 2.1.1* I love this app. When my mind wonders on long runs, it always refocuses me back on my stride and breathing. ### 5/5 — Works like magic! *2015-02-27, version 2.1* Takes the friction out of running with music. ### 5/5 — great! *2015-02-11, version 2.0* This app is fantastic, it syncs so well to the music and makes my exercising experience much more enjoyable! I definitely recommend it! Also, I love magic shuffle and the cruise ability. ### 5/5 — いいね！ *2015-02-07* このアプリでいつもランニングしてます！目指せ東京マラソン！！ ### 5/5 — Amazing App! *2014-12-17* Using this app for almost 2 years now and it is awesome. It made me fall in love with running and working out. While running you can set it to match your pace and while working out I manually set the BPM to high number so I can keep the energy up while working working out. I absolutely love this app! ### 3/5 — Impressive! But... *2014-11-19* Reducing rating. I still love this app, but it crashes regularly on iOS 8 on my iPhone 6+. It's now almost unusable. And the usability issues from my previous review have still not been addressed. Original review: Incredible beat detection. This app always keeps my music in time with my steps, or at a set pace for me to match. I love it! After having used it for a couple of weeks, I have some feature requests: - Include the ability to increase / decrease the tempo in cruise control more easily then dragging the needle. When you're running this is too hard. Maybe big + / - buttons near the needle? - Make the BPM displayed in the center of the speedometer both a toggle on / off for cruise control. Currently it only turns CC off. Would be nice to set the CC pace from your current pace without dragging the needle. ### 5/5 — I love it! *2014-11-16, version 1.9* I just set it to 180 bpm - can't wait to go running. Thanks! ### 5/5 — ジョギングのお供に *2014-11-05* このアプリを使いたいがため、 アンドロイド端末に乗り換えれない。 ジョギングやウォーキングの最良のお供です。 自分に合ったBPMと走るテンポを同調させると、楽に長時間走れます。走るペースによりBPMが変化するモードもありますが、私は固定して使ってます。リズムに合わせて走るのがこんなに楽しいと気づかせてくれたアプリ。 ギャップレス再生が出来ないのは残念ですが、 このアプリの性質上ギャップレス再生は無理かもしれません。 ### 3/5 — Good but not "pro" *2014-10-14, version 1.9* The idea behind this app came to me as I was running. I wasn't surprised the app was already created as a beat that matches your run pace is a big performance boost. I was disappointed in the lack of "pro" features, namely GPS tracking being the biggest. Your session stats are also quite sparse. I haven't found a way to view true 00:00:00 times as sessions are displayed as 9:00-9:38 a.m. for example. Where this app does shine is the music tempo tracking. Put simply, it works. Very well in fact. I used a desktop app, "beatunes" to first pick my favorite running songs that sat between 100-140 BPM since MY pace is typically around 120 BPM. My playlist of around 300 songs gets shuffled and is adjusted to match my pace thus pushing me on to run those extra agonizing laps. Maybe this app can work in conjunction with another more pro featured app? ### 5/5 — Great App! *2014-08-31, version 1.9* I run everyday and finding music to run to is not an issue. This app will pull music from your entire library or will work with my own playlist. It paces the songs to me and is just an easy to use outstanding app. Definately worth a look! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t get tempo to hold, unintuitive *2023-10-21* Every time I set the tempo, it resets at the start of the next song. Wish there was a tutorial, I’m putting in for refund because if I have to stop every song and change it back then what’s the point ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2019-03-29, version 2.2* Doesn’t work with Apple Music due to DRM. I feel so stupid now. ### 1/5 — Crash *2017-12-15, version 2.2* App crashes with new playlists all the time. ### 1/5 — Keep crashing! *2014-04-28, version 1.7.4* I dont know whether its because Im using it in an iphone 4, but it keep crashing in the beginning of the songs... ### 1/5 — アルバムからは選曲できない *2013-11-11* アルバムからは選曲できず、アルバムのシャッフル再生にも対応していないのが難点 アルバムのシャッフル再生をしようと思うならいちいち各アルバムのプレイリストを作らなくてはいけなくて実に不便。 アルバムからの選曲やアルバムのシャッフル再生に対応すればとても素晴らしいアプリだと思う。 アルバムからの選曲とアルバムのシャッフル再生に対応したら星5つはあげたいね ### 1/5 — Terrible! *2013-09-01, version 1.5.1* It just speeds up or slows down the song to your heart rate so it makes the songs so horrible. It is a terrible app. If I could not give a star, I would. ### 1/5 — Very annoying *2012-07-16, version 1.1* Why would you ever play music like this? ### 1/5 — Crap *2012-07-15* Crap crap oh yes crap ### 1/5 — Would be a zero *2012-05-17* Absolute rubbish. Not once did I feel like I was running in time- it actually took an upbeat song and slowed it right down to 'match' my speed. All it did was slow me way down. Almost had to stop and turn the thing off, but it did me a favour and crashed. If you're looking at this as an aid to running and like me you're trying to lose weight, do yourself a favour and spend that 69p on a mars bar. It will do you more good in your quest to shed the pounds. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work *2012-03-13* The tempo is never right, waste of 69p ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — サポートの継続ありがとう *2026-02-19* 相変わらすクールで唯一無二のランニングの相棒です デザインも新機能も満足しております ### 5/5 — The best app *2024-03-02* Awesome app. I’ve been using it for years now. It works best when you download songs to your phone (long sets for running at specific bpm) and use this app to fine tune the cadence. It works best when you create big playlists and let it match the best songs. I hope they keep developing it. ### 5/5 — Juste parfait! Exactement ce que je cherchais *2023-05-08, version 3.3.5* Cette app mérite d’être plus connue! Elle ajuste le rythme de tes chansons à ton rythme de course. Plus besoin de chercher des musiques qui ont le même beat que toi et que tu aimes! Simple d’utilisation et juste parfait pour garder l’énergie et le rythme avec les musiques que tu adores! Version payante pour accès illimité à vos playlists et 1 seul paiement à vie! Ça vaut le coup. Prochain step peut être rendre accessible notre biblio Spotify directement. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2018-07-19, version 2.2* I have had this app for a long and it’s the best. I have over 900 songs and it picks songs to match my pace. It’s amazing and works great. Love it. ### 5/5 — BEST FITNESS APP EVER *2018-05-25* If you like to walk or run for exercise, and you love your music--get this app now!! It is so motivating to have my favorite music in perfect rhythm with my pace. It automatically adjusts when I switch from walking to running. It would even work with cycling since you can set it to a specific beats per minute. I use this app more than any of the other jogging apps, and I use it to play music in conjunction with other apps like Couch 2 5K and Runkeeper. The music and vocals sound great--no distortion. This app is just outstanding! It helped me find the motivation to start jogging and train for my first 5k. LOVE the new updates. You should get Trail Mix! ### 5/5 — Doesn't work well *2017-07-24* It did, but then I bought the pro and I couldn't play songs that I haven't purchased and downloaded to my playlist through Apple radio, so I have no use for this app now. ### 5/5 — One of my favorite apps *2017-06-27* I've been using this for years and would hate to be without it. It's gotten me through training for two half marathons. Make sure you set it to "magic shuffle" to get a playlist based on your current pace. The stats at the end are helpful. ### 5/5 — Iodate *2017-06-17, version 2.1.1* CAN you iodate tour app please? Love it! ### 5/5 — Simple, Yet Affective! *2016-09-16, version 2.1.1* Awesome app for any kind of runner that likes listening to music. Factors: It's Simple; does exactly what it says it does. no more. import your songs into it, and hit shuffle. Music speeds up the beat to your pace. Love it! ### 5/5 — The best app *2016-06-27, version 2.1.1* This app is remarkable. There's not one other like it. Has never ever given me any bother. 👍👍👍👍👍 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
