Couch To 5K - Run, Jog, Walk App Reviews

This app closed every 3 min. as I was doing my run. You spend time picking out the music you want and then when you close the app you have to do it all over again! I found another app that does the same thing with far better graphics and function. I wish I never paid for this one.

Dud app. Doesnt work. Theres only 1 page and it asks you to buy other apps. No fitness info what so ever!!

If you are looking for an app that actually keeps working while in your pocket, then this app is not for you. Every time phone goes to sleep, the timer stops. This app is NOT functional.

Tried to start it today and was let down half way through when a button was pushed accidentally. There was no way to recover what I had already done. Thank goodness for my running buddy had another app that could be started where we left off. Dont pay for this app!!!

Needs improvement should be able to go back and pause continue where u left off if stops on u. Also should tell u when workout is complete and track total Km ran and walked should also be able to scroll through the workout to where u want to begin

As soon as my screen goes to sleep the entire app pauses - music stops, timer stops and when starting up again the playlist goes right back to the very beginning of the first song. I have to keep the screen on for the full 30 minutes. Also, my playlist kept disappearing and had to be rebuilt 3 times during my run. I wind up spending more time looking at the app than concentrating on my personal fitness goals.

After reinstalling from my laptop, it is now working

Frustrating that I have to keep my screen on. If my phone goes to sleep it stops, and the music clears itself. Annoyed by the ads at startup, angered by the ads at the top for the entire workout. I paid for the app, I certainly dont expect ads that make it not fit properly on my screen.

Way stronger runner this time, thanks to cycling, so using it differently. A great guide to keep me focused.

This application stopped and reset at least twice during one session. Easy to activate music with program.

I loved this app!!!!!

I really like the pace & the interval training. You dont give up because you know that you get a walking interval. I dont like that when I switch to another app like MapMyRun or even music, this app will auto-pause & only resumes when you open it back up.

Despite being very difficult to navigate, First day the app ran great. Second day music wouldnt play and timer was running double time counting down by twos. Deleting it!!! Dont waste your money !!

I love the idea of the app because it helps me pace myself and build up during runs or else I would run flat out and be worn out in 30 mins. I hate that it cant seem to figure a lot of it out. The app is difficult to navigate and when the phone auto locks it pauses it. Since I am running I dont notice then I have to unpause and I have run for way too long and get off time. Also, how do I look at previous sessions???

I have been enjoying the app Couch to 5K very much. I have been running with my phone on my arm band. I wish that when the workout was finished, the program would beep twice to signal its conclusion.

So far the workout has been a great tool. Like the easy to follow guidelines, timers, beeps signaling end of each period. However, music function has not worked since second day. And since I paid for the app, I hate the banner ads wanting me to check out healthcare in my neighborhood, turn my iPad into a shopping mall, or buy tea because Lady A says its good. There placement covers up the day and week of your workout schedule. Poor design. So for those reasons just a middle of the road rating.

The first day I downloaded it it didnt work! The music never played. The layout is awful. Dont waste your time or money. Deleting it and downloading a different one.

They have to get the auto lock feature figured out.

I was using this just fine until the second day I noticed that when the screen went off, so did the timer. It would quit running. Waiting on update to fix!!

The app turns off when the screen goes dark. Also you can add songs to the app to listen while you run but when the app turns off all of the songs are lost so you have to go back and re add.
