Comments on Couch to 10K Running Trainer for Android
★★★★★Meg Haas· Jun 23, 2025
First time training for a 10k and this app is a huge help to keep track of my progress and qhen to go from walking to running while I am still a beginner. The music mixes are so fun too!!
★★★★★Lior Doron· Mar 13, 2025
I really love the app and was using it for several years already. It helps you to build up the stamina and fitness in the right pace, and allowing you to go from being a couch potato to a 5K or 10K runner in several weeks.
★★★★★j witt· Aug 25, 2025
First run down! I like the app so far. Simple and easy to use.
★☆☆☆☆rossana Peralta· Nov 12, 2025
I used it for several years, but suddenly, it started not working. If I leave the app to put some music on Spotify and then come back, it restarts and losses what I was doing. I tried uninstalling it to reinstall it, and it turned out that I no longer have access to the whole program and can only see until day 1 of week 2 and to see the rest I have to pay.

I've used this app twice before, and it was great - I was regularly running 10-12k (nonstop). Now, after pregnancy & baby, I'm keen to get back to where I was, but unfortunately you now have to pay for it. I'm not willing to do this as I'm aware there are plenty of other free apps (and even an AI that could work a program out for me!) out there. I'm quite disappointed 😞
