★★★★★Kelsey Lynch· Jul 16, 2026
This app is so good.tbh I would never have started running in the first place without this app. I have tried loads of couch to 5k apps and none of them were good and not quite how I would like it but this app has everything u possibly could want and is mostly ad free. I have now ran loads of 5k races all thanks to this app, and I have even upped my goal to 8k and ran some 8k races too, and I have also run 2 10k races, but I still make sure to get some 5k runs in throughout the week etc. So s tysm😊

Great app! This is one of the few free running app that takes you through a whole program. I had no issues with the app hanging up. What would make this app better is the ability to train by time and or distance. Also, some of running days are long. It would be nice if it works with fitness watches (Fit bit, Garmin) and programs (MyfitnessPal).

Love the app, but the voices need an upgrade. Sarah is shrill and Mike as a dad, just no. I use the drill sergeant because its comedic relief. Put in friends of different cultures running with you for support. Add in an unc or auntie. An encouraging voice for a father trying to get fit or a mom taking time for herself. A senior and a teen. Voices are a chance to make the app more awesome. Make your ads based on the voices to connect with more audiences. It could be a lot of fun.

Recommended by a colleague as a way to get me running (I can't) already loving the easy-to-use format and fact I can listen to the radio on my smartphone simultaneously. Recently been totally updated and requiring subscription beyond basic level I believe. Despite that, so grateful to it for helping me learn to run when I thought I couldn't.

Terrible. It can not measure distance correctly. I run 3x already and gives me 350 m, 800 m distance, and I run approx 2-3 km...
★☆☆☆☆David Nishball· Apr 30, 2026
As of the April 24 update, you can no longer actually start a workout. What used to be free now costs 10 dollars per month. I was right in the middle of the program too.

Loved the app in the beginning so got the paid version. Got a new phone and none of my run history came over no matter how many times I reinstalled. App now doesn't measure any distance at all - 0 km every run - maybe the paid version only gives 12 months access. Same experience with 10 km paid app too. Will move on to another app now.
