C25K® 5K Run Trainer & Coach - Latest Quality Issues

Used to be a great free app. Was disappointed to find you can only access 2/8 weeks free now. Download Just Run for free!

This use to be my go-to app when I fell out of shape. They have locked the full training regimen behind their premium version. The free version only goes up to week 2, day 2. The free version now also includes calories burned and distance, with no option to turn it off (very inappropriate, do not turn to this app if you struggle with eating disorders or exercise bulimia)

Hate the new voice
The new voice prompts in the latest version are way too cheery and fake sounding. It's so cringe.

I used this app all the time when it was free, but its a very dirty move out of zenlabs to give the first week, plus one day free, then force people to pay. You've seem to have upset allot of people with that move. At least give the option of watching ads, or similar. Keep in mind, your's is not the only couch to 5k app out there.

Dissatisfied that this is registered as "free" but you have to pay a subscription after the first week. I would much prefer an ad-supported free version and will look for a different app. Update: I'm back because I couldn't find a free alternative & the plan works. The intervals are easier than using my tabata timer to manually enter the run/walk times. The ease of use is worth it. I wish there was an option to only subscribe for the length of the course. Or to pay once & have access forever.

Got a new phone in the middle of the free program and now I can't continue without paying because it stops at week 2 without a subscription. I was a huge fan before but now I'm switching to a new app. I'd rather give my money to someone else then to pay this one after a move like that!

Used to be free, now you have access only to the first 4 runs. Seems to be a cash grab

I give it 3 stars bc I really do like the program. However, do not subscribe. All of my locations and permissions were on for the subscription. My other tracking apps have no issues tracking me. This app tho had me at .37 miles in 28 min. I actually did 2 miles. I wanted to love the tracking so it could all be in one place however it is not worth it for the extremely inaccurate tracking.

so far so good, but with free trial you get free music,the music part does not work and freezes everything and then you can't get back to the running part,so I use my Spotify instead.
