5 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ It turned my first and last name into my username and I had to enter a home address to create an account to change my username.
★★★★★ It's necessary to create a username to sign up for this app, but numbers are not allowed, only letters.
★★★★★ I haven't gotten to use the app yet, the sign up page requires you to enter your date of birth, but the input for it is a calendar system that FORCES you to go through each month of the year starting at 2022 to get to…

distance isn't logging correctly
Great app, precise route and distance tracking. nice to have multiple coaches to add some flair. Downside, GPS use isn't optional, and it doesn't tell you what number leg you are on. Also you can't edit the end time for a custom run.
requires always on GPS location
while I'm not going the actually scheduled pace (I'm repeating runs to build endurance), this app has genuinely given me the structure I need to go from completely sedentary to being able to run 5k in one sitting.
Couch to 5k: A review, compliment sandwich style. (icriticism sandwiched between compliments.) this app is very clean design and comprehensive, and a very easy way to log and keep track of workouts. I HATE the app DOES NOT FUNCTION if I do not allow access to my location. "oh, well if it's just while you use the app right?" WRONG. you have to allow access to your location AT ALL TIMES OR THE APP DOES NOT FUNCTION. I wish I would have known that before I spent $5! I like Candace, she hot
