Half Marathon 13.1 Trainer for Android

This app is unfortunately really disappointing! I am training for my first half marathon. I wanted an app to help me build a training schedule, give tips, and where I would be able to input all of my workout data. This app has no customization, and really offers practically nothing for your money. You can only track your designated daily workout, which is only running or cross-train, and you must have the app open while doing these in order for the workout to be documented. It only tracks time, not distance or anything else. There is no video, no suggestion, no tips, nothing. You CANNOT input your workouts manually, or add any data. I didn’t realize when I made the purchase that clicking on “Fitness plans” only takes you to all those sister apps that don’t exactly help either (who needs another music app)? Just really disappointed that I can’t get a realistic training schedule out of this. And I definitely do not enjoy having the app open with beeps and vibrations while I am trying to run or work out! Annoying app, no customization, take your money elsewhere!

I’ve used this app to train for 6 half marathons and it worked well for my personal/modest goals. Once upon a time, I “upgraded” to the pack (5k, 10k, Half, Full) for a nominal fee, ostensibly for lifetime access to all four. Today, I fire up the app for my next race, only to discover that I now have to pay $10/month, or a “discount” rate of $60/year, to continue to access it. What?? I mean, it’s just an interval timer. Those are a dime a dozen (or free, really). There’s no choice of plans, no personalization, no tips, NOTHING that would justify a $60-120/year sub fee. Absolutely insane.

I had purchased the 1/2 marathon app and now I cannot access it unless a pay monthly or yearly. I feel that people who already paid for the app shouldn’t have to pay again.

I would never have purchased if I’d known that you only get one week of a training plan. I get paying more for detailed training stats but only getting one week of training? Total waste of money.

I used C to 5K years ago and loved it so I was excited to do this app. I was disappointed that after week 1 you have to pay for for subscription when the c25k was free.
