Spend just 25 to 70 minutes, three times a week, for nine weeks, and you’ll be 10K-ready!
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
The 5K to 10K coach you select talks to you during your workouts. To save your battery, 5K to 10K sends audio notifications when your screen is locked or another app is in use.
To be sure you hear the coach during your workout, please do the following:
• Turn on Notifications permissions
• Turn on the hardware ring/silent switch (no red showing)
• Turn your ringer volume up
• Turn off Do Not Disturb (swipe up for Control Panel and the moon button should not be white)
• Within the app, in Settings > Workout Options, be sure the Trainer Volume is up
Without granting notification permissions, during a workout you can click the lock icon at the top left to keep the app active and still hear the coach.

LOVE THIS APP
Evr07
Highly recommended if you're new to running no matter what age or fitness level you're at (start with the 5k first of course)
Not as fun as couch to 5k
Runicorn Lover
Please bring back runicorn!!! ? I’m not sure why but couch to 5k seemed a little more user friendly and had more characters. It’s still a great program I just feel like it needs some updating.
For the most part good app
MissPerfectness
I started with the couch to 5k which was perfect for me. Now I just finished the first week of this app. It isn’t bad but I can’t hear the prompts from the coaches sometimes which defeats the purpose. When I choose a playlist it doesn’t play but that doesn’t matter because I can leave the app and open my music. I hope they fix these issues sooner than later.
Doesn’t work

It was a plain and clearly very dated app, but it used to have a basic 5k to 10k plan that tracked workouts. The audio never really worked in the background, but now the run tracker won’t even load. I think the latest iOS update broke it—January 2021.
App won’t go to workout

I’ve been using this app for a while now. I opened it today and it won’t go to a workout. I’ve deleted and reinstalled twice now. It freezes or just won’t go anywhere. I’ve lost all my history and can’t seem to get any more.
Good training app with some small hiccups

This app has been great for training. The only things I don’t like are that if you’re playing music through another app, the coach doesn’t signal out loud. I still get the notifications on my watch so it’s okay but I wish I could hear my pace and stats and such during the run too. Also I don’t like that it’s strictly minute based instead of distance based. It’s assuming I’m running a 10min mile so it ends at 60min for 6 miles. I’m a little slower than that so I won’t be at 6 miles by the end of this training. But it’s free and it’s training and I’m improving so overall it’s a good app and I’m happy with it.
Broken

Was using it for a while hit now crashes every time I try to start a run and will never progress to the actual workout. Pretty dissatisfied, don’t download
A little disappointed

I loved the couch to 5k. I like this app, but the log does not breakdown your walking time from your running time. I am unable to truly track my pace :(
Not as good as the original
Friarfraust
Couch to 5k is a 5star app, this is a solid 3. It has bugs, for example I just set a new best pace but it still has an older run set as best pace even though I knocked 40s off the time. Also the audio cues DO NOT WORK while in the run. The app says you need to turn off vibrate only and adjust the volume but that doesn’t fix the issue. And it’s not an issue in the first app so why would it be in this one? Also the resolution is different, almost zoomed in more or something. Overall, 3 stars... I’d pay $10 to have this app exactly like the first.
Doesnt work

This app does not work at all. The couch to 5k app works amazingly and this wasn’t next step. This version is still completely outdated, the GPS works but in the log your pace averages don’t actually match up. It keeps telling me my average running pace is something like 3.5 minute or 5.5 minutes which is impossible for me especially considering it’s giving me the correct distance over the run. I also know for a fact that I average a 10 minute mile. I have emailed support several times and they keep giving me the run around like asking me to run in a more open space. I run exactly where I ran every day using couch to 5k with zero problems. They need to just stop avoiding it and update this app. I’m very much a person that’s motivated by forward progress and this app not working has definitely slowed down my progress. I will likely switch to a different app for my 5k to 10K training after I back peddle trying to get my 5k time back up after having so many glitchy disappointing runs with this app, my progress has digressed. Really disappointed and even more annoyed that customer service is putting the problem on me.
