Ease into 5K: run walk interval training program Reviews

Please update the app

Please update the app so that it works with Apple Music! I really want to use this app again!

Abandoned? Not updated in over 3 yrs

I had used this app a lot in the past. It’s not been updated in ages and now runs erratically in the newest versions of iOS. Looks like it’s time to move on.

This WAS a great app (in 2019) but the they don’t update... all I can say is the program is good- but honestly, there are other (free) ways of following the program that aren’t as clunky and old school.

Used to be better

It doesn’t work when the phone screen is locked, rendering it basically useless. If I keep my phone on the entire time it’s ok, but that’s annoying and uses up 50% of my phone battery for one app. Not cool.

Not what it used to be...

I got this app several years ago. Then I’d have given it 5 stars easily. In my opinion it was the best running app out there. Used a few times off and on. This year I got it to start training with a 5k with one of the kids. Currently on week 5. It’s only worked three times one week out of it all. We’ve had to use a different running app when these freezes or set our timer for intervals on running when the second app froze. In it’s current state do not get this app. When or if it’s fixed I’d be more than happy to go back re-rate to 5 stars.

Frustrated

I can’t get this thing to work unless my screen is on. Even then my songs stop every time it alerts me to run or walk making it impossible to keep my phone zipped up. My phone almost always dies either before or just as I’m finishing. So annoying. If they fix it this would be a really good app because it’s features are better than most. Especially if you’re wanting to graduate to the 10k without starting over like other apps do.

Awesome!

UPDATE: This app went downhill. I’ve had it since 2012 and now it doesn’t alert you if your phone’s screen is off (wasting battery power) and now for 2 weeks it’s glitchy. Takes too long to start. Auto pauses even though your moving. When you try to restart it tells you to run when you should be walking or vice versa. It’s terrible anymore. Wish i could get my money back now. The best thing about this app is just when you think you'll have to repeat a day because you feel not ready, you surprise yourself by being more than ready. The app is timed perfectly to your abilities to go longer and harder.

Disappointed

I used an earlier version of this app 4-5 years ago and was pretty happy with it. When I decided to get back into running it was the first one I pulled up. However, on Week 1 Day 1 during my workout I discovered that the alerts do not work when the phone is locked. That is a HUGE negative for me as a pocket phone holder, and a deal breaker. I will be looking for another C25K app.

Big fail

I couldn't hear any alerts to walk or run. I thought I was going crazy. Turns out, it's just that the app requires that not only you keep it in the foreground, but that the display never sleeps. Seriously? I am not going to adjust my settings back and forth every day from lockout after 30 seconds to never. Throwing this away.

Crashes

Twice in the last week music stops playing 2/3 through the workout then the app crashes. This is very disappointing. This app was once called Couch To 5K. I bought this app and later it changed names to Ease To 5K. I noticed that Couch To 5K can be purchased again. If this is a better version of the app I feel that I have been ripped off.
