Update: After several more runs of this app crashing on long runs and not being able to pick up heart rate on an Apple Watch, it’s definitely unreliable and unsuitable for any kind of training. I’ve run several times since with Strava and RunKeeper and have zero issues. I’ll be attempting to get a refund. The app has a really difficult time finding heart rate on Apple Watch when other apps have no issues at all. The interface could always use an update to make it easier to read pace, heart rate, and distance easier while running.

I got this app while reading Fitzgerald’s book, _80/20 Running_. I was an ultrarunner 5 years and 50 pounds ago. The book and app combo is exactly what I need to ensure I’m not overdoing intensity. Fitzgerald’s coaching in the app also helps me be at peace with my ego.

Fb login is broken so why do you offer as an option. :/

The app still crashes mid workout. I put in a support ticket and they said they fixed some bugs but I still get the same results. I ran 3.5 miles and it crashed and only recorded 2. Not worth the money

Love the concept and price of this app, however it does not work well with my iPhone and Apple Watch. My runs get randomly ended and I cannot resume them after 15 or 20 minutes for no apparent reason. Very frustrating. I contacted customer support, who was not helpful. Very disappointed in the fact that I cannot effectively utilize this as a training tool.

I have sent two tickets to customer support in regards to my app stopping mid run. I didn’t care during a training run but today I was running a race and it stopped at exactly 30 minutes. I still had 6+ miles so I didn’t care too much and just tried restarting it. Then it stopped at 1 minute 22 seconds. At this point I was too frustrated to try for a third time. If the app is going to crash at least make it possible to manually put in a run.

App crashes within 10 seconds of opening. Have tried it several times and even tried turning phone off and then back on, but no help. It’s crashed maybe 8-10 times on me now. iOS.
