Why is there no 5k to 10k app for Apple Watch???

The app requires you to have your phone with the ringer on, screen permanently unlocked and only works with Apple Music. My phone has been on silent since 2012, and if I run with my screen unlocked, I’m begging for issues (workout paused, skips ahead, skips back, etc). I don’t care about not being able to use other music apps as I use Apple Music but I care very much about having to use it within the app which means I can only listen to my playlists and in the order I put them together, not shuffled. The workouts are good and offer a great variety, but if I have to follow all these rules to get to them (and then they might be skipped around) what’s the point? I’m not bothering with contacting support. I just use Garmin Connect to build workouts lifted directly from the app. At least then I know I won’t have any issues.

Like many here I came through the brilliant Couch to 5K. The 5K to 10K app however, needs updating to have feature parity. The app resolution and display area is not optimized for modern iPhones.

The Couch to 5K program was great. This one has a lot of bugs in it. Starting with acing to watch an ad when you want to use it. I’d rather just purchase it with no ads. Second when you start a run you never know which one you will get. Today I tried to start Week 2, day 2. But it gave me “Open Run”. Third it doesn’t prompt you when you are suppose to change cycles. Just to name a few

Anyone else having trouble installing it to your Apple Watch?

This version is terrible which is disappointing because i loved the coach to 5k. It doesn’t record your distance like the other one did

This is such a great app. I use it when I’ve been slacking on my running to get back up to speed and distance. Just wish they had a 10K to 13.1k app

I’ve used the couch to 5k app to get back running after pregnancy and injuries, and now I’m using it to build up endurance for longer distances. I love that it eases the runner into safe progression. I would like to see: More integration with treadmill. When I manually add my distance it gives me a pop up that my stats are erased. This is ok as I track stats with other apps. More coaching during the run. For instance, I was distracted at the beginning of one of my runs and missed the instruction for what a tempo run is. As someone who didn’t do track in high school and basically just goes out and runs I don’t know what some terms are. I would have liked that instruction in my ear as I ran. Regardless, I feel like this is a safe progression that will keep me from being injured by overdoing it! I have recommended the couch to 5k to new runners and I’d recommend this one too!!

I hate this app. It inaccurately estimates my average mile minutes. It too easily unlocks and then either pauses or moves to the next section. Worse still, if you do accidentally go to the next section abs try to go back, it erased the miles you already clocked. Couch 2 5k was so good. This app is t worth it.

Just as awesome as the couch to 5k app, but it could use an update to look like it…couch to 5k has a better appearance and feel to it
