★★★★★ Bought it because it didn't require a subscription - assumed it would sync to Apple Fitness/Health because I love closing my circles, but it does not do that.
★★★★★ I did not want to pay for this app!
★★★★★ If you're going to charge for an app at least make the interface easy to navigate.

★★★★★ Has several fun little characters to condescend to you in full 3D, and that combined with the constant location tracking made it so that each run I attempted would freeze the app 11 or so seconds in and drain my…
★★★★★ I've used this app for a few years, downloaded it again today and it crashed twice while I was in the middle of a run.

12 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ No feedback on password selection The app's "support" function pulled my boss's rmIl address into the form and wouldn't allow me to change it.
★★★★★ Apple Watch support is poor and it doesn't feed its data into Apple Health.
★★★★★ I can't even get in contact with customer support!
11 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ The verbal cues will suppress the volume until the next interval making a music plug-in almost useless.
★★★★★ Hopefully this is an update they can make, because it renders the app pretty useless for me otherwise, unless I spend $20 in the iTunes Store to purchase a playlist to use in the app.
★★★★★ I hate that I have to set the trainer each time, the childish animations and fake cheers.
6 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ Last time I'll pay for an app up front Couldn't sign in- tried multiple email addresses, never got a confirmation.
★★★★★ So, how good is an app that can't even work well enough to allow you to set up account.

★★★★★ I really enjoyed this app back in 2017 and I went to get it again and noticed not much has changed.
★★★★★ I started this program to run my first 5K. I didn't realize that it would be an amazing and effective weight loss app as well. It's easy to use. Pairs flawlessly with my IPhone. The voice cues come in over my music so…

★★★★★ But when I stay consistent, this app builds me up and helps me maintain.
★★★★★ I've never been good at running. In middle school, everybody could jog a mile straight no problem while I'd be getting yelled at for taking breaks. This app is AMAZING, and I was able to run my first mile after using…

I tried a lot of programs to get back into running…but I like this one the most. It doesn’t talk too much, which lets me lose myself in the workout, but still keeps me on track. Perfect for getting back into running.
Every fall as the temperature drops I transition to running as my exercise choice. Getting back in shape always takes time. I annually return to this app, enjoying the pacing and gradual increase of difficulty. Segment Block and September, my old friends.
I downloaded this app about 2010. I’ve run a few 5K races, but really, I find value having it around like an old friend that keeps me off the couch!
This app eases you into it at a perfect pace. Highly recommend.
I have never been a runner, but this helped me feel confident in learning how to run without overdoing it and hurting myself. For anyone who’s trying to take steps toward getting in shape this is a good choice
Have used this app for many years. The pacing is perfect and helps me to get back to running after the winter months.
