Interval Run App Reviews

The app now runs on my iPhone

I couldnt get the app to run. I sent an e-mail to the company ... And someone contacted me directly. They not only sent me a fix for the app, they also guided me through installing the fix so that it now works perfectly. I am now 100% satisfied.

Perfect app for almost any interval training protocol

I really like this app, its easy to use, very flexible, and works flawlessly. I wanted to do a variety of different interval training, -from 10-1 run/walk, to LT running test, to a tempo run, but,still be able to play my running tunes. This app will do just that - and simply interrupt the music to advise you on the interval and/or status. It also has a number of built in running programs such as the c25k. I like that you can create both long (up to 1 hr) and short intervals, and also have more than a simple 1:1 type interval selection.

Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love this app. I love listening to music while on the tread mill an having this app running in front of me, it comes over and tells you how much longer you have left and when to alternate running and walking. Def a great buy for people who are new to running and need something to tell them when to run and walk and when to run each day of the week.

Sort of works

Keeps jumping run sections or repeating sections to the point of whats suppose to be a 25 min run/walk is now only 12 mins. The app isnt worth $1.99. Much better free interval apps out there.

Great potential

App does a great job with interval training customization. Easy to use and works well do far. I would love to see distance/average speed/calories tracking added.

Great App For Tabata, Best Ive Tried

The other interval/Tabata apps I have tried all go High/Low with no option to pace up or down (if you are on a treadmill). This app allows you to build custom workouts w/ w/e intervals and times you want. 4 stars because no new updates since June 2011. Great app.

Complicated!!!!!

Dont even understand what the app is supposed to do!

Skips intervals

Couch to 5K, Week 4, workout 2 skips intervals. App needs bug fixes.

New Rev makes it sooo much easier to edit workouts.

Very much easier to set up my own intervals. Graphics have improved too. Nice job. Now get a GPS function and you will approach perfection.

Updated interface is great

This app is exactly what I was looking for. With the new interface its even better. Good Pre-Programed intervals and an easy to use custom interval creator. Highly Recommended!!

Nice app.

Im about to finish week 6 of Couch to 5k and I think this app its great. Kept me running/walking for 6 weeks. The progression in C25k its so smooth that I have never had any kind of pain so far (touching wood). I also use the tabata intervals from time to time and it is very helpful. Its great that I can listen to my favorite tunes/podcasts while running.

Bring some old features back!

Ive had this app for 2 years now. I love the Couch to 5k program but I miss the features on the older version where I could clearly see my progression through the run and I could see the week ahead to plan for the changes in the program. Ive been recently diagnosed with severe allergies and exercised induced asthma so this program keeps me on track, helps me build up slowly after breaks in running and it does not progress too quickly. No injuries and room for advancement. Great app just give me some of the old perks back please!!

Great App - please make display time more visible

I really love this app but Im a bit disappointed with the most recent update that makes the remaining time smaller and less visible. The time on the previous version was big and bright enough that I could glance down at my phone (strapped on my bicep) and easily read the display. Its now so small that its hard to see when outdoors. Otherwise this app is fantastic.

Does exactly what its supposed to do

Decided to do Couch to 5k training program and looked around for a program that would let me listen to my music and yet guide me through my intervals (different ones every week). This app has worked flawlessly for me on my older ipod touch runnning ios 4.x.

Great App

Ive been doing interval running for years and its always been a struggle to hear my interval watch over my music. This totally solves that problem. I also like the pre-programmed runs on there as it has thrown a little variety into a stale routine. Definitely worth the money considering it just replaced a $35 watch without losing any features. Also easier to program than my watch!

Almost perfect!!!

I love that I can use it in conjunction with my Nike app so I can know my distance and pace too. It is clear and easy to use. I am doing the couch to 5k program right now. Almost perfect because it only has space for you to run 3 days a week. It would be nice to have a 4 or 5 days a week option. Not really that big of a deal though and at the moment I wouldnt really be able to do much more than that.

I like it a lot!

I love this app. Ive been using it for three months and Ive had no issues. Personally the coolest thing is you can edit the workouts in a text file and import them into your program very easily and quickly via email. Past c25k and bridge to 8k? Transcribe your 1/2 marathon or full marathon training schedule to a text file and email it to yourself. Click the attachment to automatically import it into the program and viola.

Great App could use minor enhancement

This app is great, it helps tell me when to run, when to walk and when to cool down. It is nice that you can program it by interval time, it would be nice if the app used GPS features and allowed you to program intervals by distance too.

A Few Small Fixes

I like the program. Its easy to use and works well. Id just like to see a training for increasing speed thru intervals. Also and more importantly, the ability to create a custom program is awesome but a note or log after would be great. This way, I could keep track of the distance I ran each time while trying to increase the speed and miles run during the time set. Charting this would be even better.

Used in half marathon with audiobook

Works really well when paired with music or audiobook. My only hiccup was that it skipped one of my intervals during the race. Not sure if I just didnt hear the "walk" command or if the app did in fact skip it.
