## What is Weav Run?

Please export your data as soon as possible - as the app will stop functioning in the upcoming days.

Weav Run is a music app for runners. Using groundbreaking adaptive music technology, music you love automatically syncs to your footsteps—in real time! Access hundreds of top songs and curated playlists by your favorite artists. Run, jog, sprint, walk—we cover every running pace from 100 - 240 steps/min. The music adapts to your stride!

Enjoy tracks by Lizzo, Cardi B, Sia, Icona Pop, Clean Bandit, Rudimental, Portugal. The Man, Galantis, and many others at 122, 179, or even 220 beats per minute. Weav’s technology carefully remixes every song on the fly so the song always sounds fresh and clean.
Weav Run puts you in control of the music with 2 modes to choose from:

— MATCH MY STRIDE
Weav Run keeps the music in sync with your steps while you’re running. The song’s beat lands when your foot hits the ground. If you run faster, the song speeds up... If you slow down, the song instantaneously adapts and plays at a slower BPM.

— FIXED TEMPO
This mode enables you to set the BPM, and every song you hear will play at that exact tempo.  You can also change this at any point during the run. Use this mode to help maintain a steady rhythm while running. It can also be used to help you optimize your cadence. Running at a higher cadence can reduce the risk of injury, increase running efficiency, and boost performance.

[New Feature]
— WEAV OUTDOOR WORKOUTS
Our new instructor-led dynamic audio workouts combine distance- and time-based intervals, workout-specific pace, distance cues, and other novel personalizations. 

You can freely choose the playlist for each workout, and shuffle or skip songs without interfering with the audio instructions. And continue running to music once the trainer’s workout is over. 

Speaking of the trainer, we have partnered with Kelly Roberts, certified running coach and founder of Badass Lady Gang in creating the first 5 outdoor workouts. Together, we've created guided runs for runners of all athletic levels that build strength and endurance but most importantly, will help runners actually have more fun running.

—  IMPROVING CADENCE
Studies show that runners often match their steps with the rhythm of the music. Higher BPM encourages you to take more steps per minute. By matching your footfall to the beat, you can begin optimizing your cadence.

### 5/5 — Elizabeth run

*2023-01-27, version 4.7.1*

Imagine if you were a long distance runner and you weren’t very good at it yet what would you do? My first experience with the app was really good because this app is easy to use and it has really good graphics. The one complaint I have is how do you track your actual mile time and your distance at the same time? I ran a 5K really fast and I’m really impressed with that and I was in a mile. Thanks so much for writing the app. This app is really help me mentally and physically, so I can listen to music while I work out 💪

### 5/5 — Weav Run Forever

*2022-08-06, version 4.6.2*

Been a Weav runner for years now (initially found this app back when I started running in ~2019). It was great then and it’s great now! Awesome for beginners because you can set it at your goal pace and the music helps keeps you on target. Great for experienced runners too, making workouts more enjoyable. 

Used it to train & run my first half marathon earlier this year- kept me motivated and helped me achieve a PR!
If I had to delete all apps on my phone except one, this is the app I would keep.

### 5/5 — Absolutely Awesome, no joke!

*2022-06-21, version 4.6.2*

To set a cadence/pace and let the songs continuously play seamlessly is amazing, to observe how the beats follow the changes of your footstep cadence is even more unbelievably cool. You almost wanted to dance during your run/walk as if there’s a virtual DJ playing and synchronising your songs. Not only that it makes your journey less boring. If only heart rate data could be imported from Apple Watch that would make the already excellent app a step closer to perfection. Well done team! (Just that can it be a one-off fee rather than subscription based?)

**Developer response:** Thank you for all the kind words!  💃 🎶 🎧

### 2/5 — Currently buggy

*2022-03-01, version 4.5.2*

I was barely able to use the app enough to know that it has potential, but it kept crashing on me. I even tried to restart my phone midrun, but the app would still crash after about 30 seconds of play time. For a while I was able to restart the music with my headphones, as long as I didn’t open the app again. The music is neat in how it changes speed with your cadence, but for me, the music sounds slow when I’m running at a strong pace, which encouraged me to slow down. I think if they could fix the buggy issue, it would be a good app for faster runners, but not someone on the slower side like me. (For reference, I averaged 10:00/mile while testing the app.)

**Developer response:** We are very sorry to hear about your experience. We’re aware of the bug with iOS 15.3 that causes the app to crash if it's in the background. 

Firstly, 10:00/mile is not slow at all! But we hope you try our other "Fixed Tempo" mode. Some runners enjoy following a steady beat instead of music following them. We recommend setting the tempo around 160-175 bpm.  

Update: We can confirm that iOS 15.4 fixes this issue, and is now publicly available.

### 5/5 — Perfect for marathon training

*2021-09-18, version 4.3.13*

I love everything about it! I’m training for my first marathon at WDW this January and love the mixes and the way I can choose the tempo of each song!
I just found the Latin mix today and that should cover lots of what I want, hoping for lots of Spanish reggeaton songs! I also love a lot of the tropical beat songs and think they can be added into the Latin mix. Thank you for this app, I use it all the time!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2021-04-28, version 4.3.8*

I’ve been running outdoors w this app for over a year and I think it’s great. I like the fact that the music speeds up and slows down w my pace, which helps me stick to a steady pace. I love knowing how fast I’m going (it tells you your split time every half mile). The music is good and a mix of current stuff and some older tunes. If you like, you can create playlists from the Weav library. I haven’t done that, and I just listen to the playlists that already exist in the app. I recently started using the Weav Workouts, and they’re challenging but also somehow inspiring (ladder workouts, etc). The workouts push me to try stuff like sprinting for 400 m, or for 60 seconds, that sort of thing. Rewarding to reach new personal bests! I run w Weav whenever I run now.

**Developer response:** Thanks 😃 So happy to hear you're having more fun with adaptive music! Rock 'n' Roll!

### 5/5 — Neat App

*2021-04-04, version 4.3.4*

This app is really great.  I’m a beginning runner & started using this after doing a couch to 5k program.  I like that I can set the bpm because it helps me with keeping a consistent pace throughout my run.  Sadly the last update 4.3.4 broke the app on my phone (iPhone 6 iOS 12.5.2).  The app opens & then immediately closes itself.  I hope it can be fixed but I understand that my old phone may not be supported.  I didn’t realize how attached I had gotten to the app & now I can’t find anything else I like to replace it.

### 5/5 — LOVE THIS!

*2021-03-30, version 4.3.3*

Omg I'm not a runner, I’ve tried for years and always give up after a few days. But the work outs within the app are fantastic and motivating and I’ve been running a week straight! Really truly can’t say enough good things about this app and the developers. Every time the app asks for feedback I get a personal email thanking me. Truly lovely people who created an amazing app. Forever and always support them!

### 5/5 — I like where this app takes me!

*2021-02-23, version 4.1.1*

I was a runner during my time in the army and I have always enjoyed running. I got the dad bod with the kids and running took a spot in the back burner. Now in late 30s I want to relive that passion that I had when running in the German woods.  I always ran with a little MP3 player which had all my awesome music of the time.  Now I have Apple Music and I have playlists but it never seems to synch up with my pace. Having this app has changed all that. I have been running this month doing 5 miles every other day and the music quickly changed with my pace. The workouts are awesome. Having someone there with you cheering you on is a big YES! For me. I’m loving it so far. And now that I have downloaded more of the music it’s really coming along.

**Developer response:** So glad to hear you are enjoying the app during your runs and workouts! 🤩 We promise to keep releasing more and more music! Stay safe out there!

### 2/5 — So much potential

*2021-02-11, version 4.1.1*

If the Apple Watch didn’t exist this would be a solid 5 star app, however, the reality is it does and the fact that this can’t run standalone to me is absurd.  In fact even if you bring your phone along in a arm carrier or a small phone waist belt like I use, the I watch can’t even be used to skip a song!! I will give them that it’s free and the music tempo shift is pretty cool however, for all I could tell, they just warp the song’s tempo instead of transitioning into a song with an appropriate BPM for your cadence.  It’s better then nothing, but working on utilizing the Apple Watch and using different songs to match tempo instead of just warping the beat would make this app flawless!
