Takes time love it, but well worth the money. I've started using it along with the C25K program. - Firstly, the free version is good enough to get you hooked. You get your music playing to the cadence of the run. 1st * - Secondly, it coexists easily with other running apps such as Runtastic, RunKeeper or Endomondo. 2nd * - Thirdly, the free version scans your library in the background and picks up the tempo, but you need to have the WiFi enabled as it checks for the songs online. In the paid version you get to Tap the tempo, look it up online, enter manually, or let the app analyze the audio in real-time. 3rd * - Fourthly, you can adjust quite a few settings: Sensitivity of cadence detection, Matching accuracy, Repetition vs. Accuracy ratio, Song tempo difference in %, plus you can run to multiples or fractions of the song's original tempo. In the paid version you can even let the app slow down / speed up the song to match the tempo without distorting the playback too music. 4th * - Finally, in the paid app you get the Training Mode and built-in programs and this is where the DjRun flies. You can even edit and set your cadence and time. 5th * The only thing I miss is a more complete USER MANUAL. Good Job. Thanks.

I'm a sixtysomething who went from 24/7 sitting to walking briskly about four miles every morning. I do much better playing music set to my pace, but I've had trouble getting that set up on my Amazon Fire phone without cellphone service. I downloaded a bunch of Amazon Prime music but getting a playlist set up has been like taking a math class. I've tried to sideload a number of bpm-based apps but most won't work on my Fire phone. This morning I walked the first time with DJRun and WOW! Not only did it work fantastically and flawlessly, I didn't even have to load the jerky Amazon Prime Music app, which heats up and eats up so much of my phone. I just started up DJRun and Endomondo, and both apps worked together wonderfully. The best part is, I can download a ton of music I've never heard before and DJRun finds new work for me that fits with my pace. If I don't like something, I can rapidly skip past it and get a new song without breaking my stride. Combined with Amazon Prime, DJRun is a great music discovery and curation tool. (Can't seem to buy DJRun Pro, though.) If you are an Amazon Prime user, get this!

Constant crashing, no response Really loved this app the one time I could get it to run with out crashing my Samsung S3. I actually have to pull out my battery to get my phone to respond again. Tried to contact support but there has been no response after several days.

Needs Google Music integration Seems like a possibly good app, but if you handle all music through Gmusic then this isn't for you.

Don't but the pro version. First off, the app hasn't been updated since August of 2012. I bought the pro version, but every time I load the app, it forgets I bought the pro license, loses some of my settings, and has to re-analyze the BPM for all my songs . It's a big hassle trying to set it up each time. And when I'm ready to go running, I don't have time to deal with that. DON'T BOTHER WITH THE PRO VERSION. Also, no reply to an email request for support. Stock rooted AT&T Galaxy S4.
