HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (30 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

  • I want to be able to keep using this app for training! 5★, Apr 5, 2024

  • I wish this had a Apple Watch app like zombie run does. 2★, Jun 3, 2020

  • I know the watch doesn't run GPS, but it would be nice to have the ability to sync to the watch for treadmill runs to get an accurate pace/distance in the log. 4★, Apr 5, 2020

Fun, addictive37%

86 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ I enjoy the different character as I'm listing.
★★★★★ I really enjoy the variety in drills this app provides, and love that each day there's a different part of the story.
★★★★★ Fun story which lays some ground work for the actual zombies run app.
Worth the money8%

18 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ For example, week 6 says run 12 min but it's actually walk fast for 5 and free form run 7.
★★★★★ This a very fun app! Getting back into running after 3 yrs and without a running buddy, this helps fill that gap. The workouts are well thought out and the story is simple but fun and encouraging. Works well with…
★★★★★ best of all - it's free 😊
Easy to use7%

16 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ The app itself is also super easy to use and I absolutely love how they let you listen to your own music.
★★★★★ These are all things I can get past but still simple annoyances to fix.
★★★★★ The workouts are well thought out and the story is simple but fun and encouraging.
Useful, it helps6%

13 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ This app is exactly what I needed to get me running again.
★★★★★ Getting back into running after 3 yrs and without a running buddy, this helps fill that gap.
★★★★★ I keep wanting more no matter how many times I fall off personally this app helps me stay working towards my goal.
Accurate, great results5%

11 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ Sometimes the amount of time that is noted isn't accurate.
★★★★★ Works well with music, but not audiobooks, as the app doesn't pause the music/talk, but just lowers it while they speak.
★★★★★ I know the watch doesn't run GPS, but it would be nice to have the ability to sync to the watch for treadmill runs to get an accurate pace/distance in the log.

★★★★★Sep 24, 2026
Loved it, but disappointed

I got 3 weeks done, really invested, and now it’s demanding a subscription. So disappointed, I loved using it.

★★★★★May 23, 2026
Fun app

This app has me out walking, I’ll be running slow soon. I enjoy the different character as I’m listing. If you looking for something different or to help you get started this is it.

★★★★★Feb 16, 2026
I’m on week 7 and have yet to be chased by a Zombie?

For 7 weeks I’ve listened to these characters (which aren’t written nearly well enough to get invested in their backstories) talk vaguely about some girl who died before you ever got there. This is taking so long and going nowhere. I just wanted to get chased by zombies damn.

★★★★★Oct 5, 2025
This is amazing

So far I’m only in week two but after years of using couch potatoes to 5k, I already love this so much more. The storyline makes you feel like you’re working towards something and the voice actors and scripts were surprisingly top notch. I look forward to hearing each week. Any every day is different so even though I’m in training it’s like I’m working with a coach and it’s a new day

★★★★★Sep 21, 2025
Pause

I’ve just completed the first 3 weeks of zombies! Run! And it has motivated me to get out and run. I like this app a lot and would be happy to purchase the full app for a year if it’s going to stick around. I have one suggestion though. Could you make it say “pause” or even just make a blip sound when the app pauses. Several times I haven’t known it had paused while running. Today it missed almost 10 minutes of my running because I didn’t realize it had paused. Thanks!

★★★★★Sep 17, 2025
Love it, however..

I absolutely love this app, however sometimes while it's running in the background while I'm on a training mission it resets my progress, and says I never did it. Also happens occasionally when I completed the workout, and I press "close." I've had a few times when I've had to redo my run.
