Ease into 5K for Android

I love this app, and have used it several times to return to running after having a baby. My only criticism is that I wish it worked to notify of changes, “walk”, “run”, etc. while the screen was off.

I could never get going on a running program until actually the predecessor of this program called Couch to 5K. It almost teases you into pushing forward.

Extremely user friendly. Great system to use when new to running and not sure where to start.

Does a pretty good job training you to run. Does have a few bugs that need fixing: 1) In first weeks run tells you there are 8 intervals but as soon as you finish number 8, says 9/9 so you get one more. A little frustrating. 2) Have found that if I have the program running but switch to my music on the screen, I will not get alerted when to start next run. Need to switch to music app and back before next interval or you will be late starting. Do like the information it provides as far as current pace, distance and overall pace. Do think I would like overall pace to be calculated without the warm up times factored in.

I wish they would update this app. It’s my favorite couch to 5k app I’ve used. I love the interface and the options. But it’s been 5 years and the little bugs are making it janky. I’m moving on to another app, but this has been my favorite. Sad to let it go.
