Interval Run App Reviews

I bought this app three years ago when I first started running, and it has been a faithful companion throughout many races and training runs! I love being able to program my own workouts, but then also using the preset ones are nice too. This is a quality app!

This app is an absolute must for anyone new to running or anyone looking for an app that provides guidance, to help lose weight, I couldnt speak high enough praise for this great app

Hate this app. Wanted something to keep track of interval stats and tell me when to change pace. This doesnt seem to tell me when to switch, and it keeps track of stats but I CANT hear it while Im holding my phone waist/chest level. Apparently this would be better if i had a heart rate monitor and other fancy accessories. i am not a fancy runner. Paid for the whole upgrade because I didnt understand each optional feature. Giant waste of $8, which I think is quite a lot for an app, let alone one I hate. Extremely disappointed.

The voice commands are intermittent when listening to podcasts.

I really like this app. The interface is clean, the ability to add custom workouts is very intuitive, and its easy to use while I listen to music

Since the update, about a minute after the screen is locked, an alert pops up that says the app will timeout in one minute. If this app cant be used while the screen is locked, it just drains battery and is useless if you have to hold your phone or put it in your pocket while running. As it is now, the app is useless. I really loved this app until this last update. I was using it to prepare for my first 5K in a few weeks. I guess I will have to find a new app until this one is updated.

I really like and use this app regularly. Until the last update I would have given it 5 stars. But recently since the last update it has started timing out and sending me a notification saying "interval run will time out in one minute" while I am using it when my phone screen goes to lock mode or I access another app like pandora or map my run. It didnt used to do that. Not sure what this is about but it makes the app not usable since I am having to stop running, take it off my arm band and go into the phone to let it know Im still using it. I hope this issue is resolved soon or I will have to find another interval running app. Thanks!

Ive been using Interval Run since Feb 2013. It is simple to set up and it will work in the background of the GPS iRunner app. I get commands when to begin my intervals & recovery. I customize my workouts & it works for me.

I use this app to do the walk/run method. It lets you create your own intervals so I have 10 different ones I use depending on how I feel. This was the best one I have found and I have tried many. Very easy to use and I use it with other apps running with no problem!

I used to use this app every time I ran but now it will not play sounds when my phone is locked. I listen to podcasts when I run rather than music. Im not going to take the developers suggestion to leave my phone unlocked when this app used to work just fine and they really should fix it. Im going to have to switch to a competitors app because of this.

This app has exactly what I need-- the ability to personalize my interval training to make my own couch to 5K training program, and save it! But it has a bug that unfortunately makes it difficult to deal with; It will not let me share to Facebook because it wont let me login. It would be great if it would stay running in the background while you do other things, but it looks like you only have a minute or two to go back to the interval trainer before it closes. With these little tweaks it could be a five-star app.

Not sure what happened but the app crashes as soon as I open it. Ive uninstalled, reinstalled and to no avail. Sooo bummed.

The app stopped working on my iPod running iOS 5.1.1. Thats the latest OS for this device and I dont think the iOS software or app version was updated since I last used it. Seems to have just stopped working. Still works on my iPhone 5.

This used to be my favorite app while jogging. Ive recommended it to soooo many people. Now when I launch the app on my iPod Touch (iOS 5.1.1) it opens to the Interval Run title page then shuts down. Ive deleted & reinstalled - same thing happens. This needs to be fixed!

Im training for my first 5K and have intervals that a trainer gave me - but needed a way to track them. This app is perfect, allowing you to build workouts of varying length and content. I used it while listening to music, and had no trouble hearing the voice commands.

Amazing.

I never give reviews for apps. This app though helped me enjoy running. Amazing!

Ive used this app for quite a while and on previous versions of iOS and previous phones its worked great! but on the current version the app keeps stopping when the phone is locked which is totally useless and make the app pointless. The other pluses with this app are the other interval programs that are available

If you keep your screen locked (which I generally do when my phone is in my flipbelt) it suspends the app. This never used to happen. Why would that be added in an update? It doesnt make sense. Please please fix this!

I loved this app when I first bought it but now it wont work unless the app is open on the screen. Its still runs properly but its kind of a pain to keep the phone unlocked. It would get five stars if this problem were fixed. Please fix it!!!!!
