Not sure how this app works…

It’s supposed to sync with Final Surge but is not bringing over the details/plan of the actual workout. I’ve given permissions for everything…

Very useful

Very useful app but workouts synced from somewhere else doesn’t save.

great app

my number 1 app for apple watch for running

Great Athletica Companion

I recently switched to Athletica from another app but was stuck on getting the workouts to my Apple Watch via Apple Workouts app… Watchletic to the rescue! It just works, and when I hit a completion syncing snag, the developer responded and fixed the issue in 24 hours… 10/10, just download it. You won’t regret it!

Response from developer

Thank you for the very kind review, glad it works so well for you!

Editing workouts synced from somewhere else doesn’t save.

Learn to code. Also pace doesn’t sync

Not active in Apple Watch

What’s up?!! The app is no more loading on my Apple Watch 8 - the icon is still here but doesn’t load the app at all. It iso ok on iPhone meanwhile.

It’s ok today. Any comments, will the service be unpredictable again?

Response from developer

Thank you for the report. There was an issue with older devices with version 3.0.15 but that should be fixed in 3.0.16. Please let me know at viktor@watchletic.com if you're still having issues.

Well balanced app - enjoy smart/utility features of Apple Watch with the sport features of a Garmin

I’ve been using my Apple Watch to track workouts for over 5 years and like many of us have tried multiple apps.
Came across Watchletic as I’d started a training program on Training Peaks and wasn’t keen on switching to Garmin and losing the smart features of my Apple Watch.
I did try using the stock Workout app as it has Training Peaks integration however small things annoyed me (like not being able to see pace and heart rate zone on the same screen).
Watchletic solved this by providing plenty of features and customisations whilst maintaining a clean/simple feel.
I particularly enjoy the audio cues which are really well done and allow me to sometimes get through a full workout without looking at my watch!
Developer is also very active and passionate about the app which is awesome too.

Great app great support, and now a great interface

Been using this for a while and find it very useful. Especially for using with footpath and uploading to/from Train As One. Great integration providing directions and instructions.

Response from developer

I’m glad you enjoy it!

A must for structured training.

I’ve been using Watchletic for years. Every time Apple announces fitness updates at WWDC, I try the native fitness app and then run back to Watchletic. The dev is awesome, super open to feedback and responsive. Training peaks sync works beautifully and it does a fantastic job coaching you through structured/interval workouts.

What can I say - it just works!

great app

my number 1 app for apple watch for running

So helpful!!!

I love this app! It allows workouts from StrideOn to be imported to your apple watch. When I had an issue, Viktor was so responsive & helpful & he helped fixed my issue! Couldn’t recommend it enough!

Response from developer

I’m so happy you enjoy the app, it means a lot!

App not working with Apple Watch anymore

Many users including myself are experiencing issues where the app will not open and crashes on Apple Watch that started a few days ago. Please fix I really enjoy and have a subscription.

Response from developer

Hi, this should be fixed in 2.6.7, can you please verify if that’s the case for you?

Just what I was looking for

Excellent app to program your own workout.
Easy interface, work flawlessly.

Amazing for my running

Absolutely thrilled with Watchletic! I’ve been using this app nearly every day to track my running sessions. It syncs brilliantly with my Train As One calendar, which means as soon as I fire up the app on my Apple Watch, I’m all set with my day’s workout, complete with voice notifications and all the stats I could possibly need.

I used it for my recent half marathon where I could upload the route map and set my splits and goal time for perfect pacing. It’s like having a Garmin.

While it does cater to other sports, I’ve stuck with running for now. I genuinely couldn’t manage without it!

The modest fee is a small price to pay for such functionality. Plus, the developer is incredibly supportive and responsive to feedback. Highly recommend!

Advanced running features

Indispensable app for computing elevation-adjusted split strategies for race day. Simple and efficient!

Response from developer

Race day is where it shines. Thank you for the kind review!

The only way to train for triathlons and Trainingpeaks

I have a training plan from Trainingpeaks and this app is the only one that works for live workouts. Screen customization is great and you can do pool swims.

One ask: would it be possible to have a target number of laps view in swim workouts? The current experience shows it in miles then feet which isn’t too helpful for us empirical metrics folks. Also I noticed that the first length of the pool isn’t registered so I’m offset by 1 length the whole workout unless if I skip

Thanks for the great feedback, your request is noted and in the backlog!

Incredibly full featured app

I’ve been using this app for running sessions, and the customisability of workouts in unparalleled. You can create simple workouts such runs to pace, HR etc, but also more advanced features such as negative splits and running power. Plus, all workout features including Strava integration are at no cost, so what’s not to love?

Poor time for a 2x price hike

The developer decided to increase prices 2x. Its there choice but with TrainingPeaks adding the integration with the native Fitness app I see no reason to pay for Watchletic, which I used for its integration with TrainingPeaks training plans. I might have continued to use the app at the previous price but with the 2x price hike I’ve just canceled my subscription

My favorite running app

Update 12/2023:
Updated app provides automatic import of my running plans from TrainAsOne and with the optional voice overs announcing when I’m too far or too slow it makes it very easy to stay close to my pace without having to look at my watch. Updates keep coming and improving the app all the time.

Original:
I use this app when running and it’s great. I can easily set a variable distance when I want to start my workout. I create a few workouts (each with a variable distance) so that today my workout (1mi warmup, 5mi pace, 0.5mi cooldown) is the same saved workout for tomorrows (1.25mi warmup, 8mi slow distance, 0.75mi cooldown). I open the app on the watch, select my “workout” and enter my three distances for that day and off I go. No need to create each before hand or change distances before hand). Simply a time saver. Developer listens to feedback and implements features/changes where he can).
