Not compatible with Audible – WorkOutDoors Review

I enjoy listening to audiobooks during my runs, but unfortunately this app’s voice alerts will pause the book’s audio. (Ideally I could choose to pause/resume or duck the audio.) If you turn off voice alerts, the haptic ones are confusingly similar and too frequent by default. Most of my workout was spent wondering if I was above target pace, or if I had just finished a lap (spoiler: I messed up my laps because of this). The only manageable setting is to turn off all alerts except distance. It also doesn’t allow mixing units, like 1mi warmup with 400m repeats, which is helpful for track workouts. Finally there’s no way to turn off custom screens on interval workouts and just use the default screens. This means if you have a lot of workouts programmed and you want to update the metrics on screen, you need to reprogram and reupload all of them.
