Runmore 5K Trainer (with Wear) - Easy Running for Android
This is a great app to help you progress in your running ability. Pretty simple: directs you when to run and when to walk. After repeated use, you'll find yourself building up more stamina.
Simplistic! Exactly what I need
It does its job well and doesn't clutter the app with a bunch of "features" you'll never use.
Amazing. Never has my life been so changed by software. Motivation to run for people who have none.
What I needed to start running again.
Simple to use, nice UI, and does exactly what it needs to.
Helpful and has a good progression of running vs walking time.
Simple but extremely helpful
Love it. Really helpful.
This is a good app for c25k training with smart watches. The phone app and smart watch app need to work together a little better. The Google Fit integration on the phone should work with the watch app so that G fit is alerted to a run when I run without my phone. The phone app should also.let me select better my phone and watch for tracking my run.
Great app for novice runners. Easy to follow instructions, simple interface, and it can send you reminders. While small, this app does exactly what it advertises: getting you off the couch and running up to a 5K gradually.
When trying the watch only mode the timer appears to stop when the watch screen goes off, so unless you keep the screen on you never get alerted to run/walk
Love the app, easy to use and access. Android Wear use is awesome even without mapping data from my watch. Still works and is super easy to utilize without my phone. Love it!
Add GPS tracking and I'll give it 5 stars
Could really use a music independent volume control
I started using the app this week. I have a Nexus 5X with Google Fi. The first 2 times that I used it, the voice prompts stopped at the last 2 change-ups. It told me to run fine, but never told me to stop or for the cool-down. I also can't get it to work with my Fossil Q watch with Google Wear. Everything else is great.
Love it! I don't run but this has got me running. Having terrible connectivity on my fossil q founder on wear 2.0, can't even start a run nor does it display run info if started by my LG v20. Otherwise loving it still just would like my wear functionality back.
Every time I have tried to use this app to do a run, it starts out working well, where the app vibrates and talks to me each time I am supposed to change what I am doing. But then it bugs out and stops talking, or stops vibrating, or stops both talking and vibrating. The app is very well designed otherwise, but this bug makes it unusable for me.
Was using C25K but they don't have Android Wear support and when I emailed them to ask about it their response was essentially "meh". Although their English wasn't that good. Runmore gives me everything I got from C25K but my watch vibrates now so I can run without headphones. Integrate GPS so I can get distances and I'll give 5 stars.
This is the worst and most ridiculous fitness app ever! It measures and displays nothing. No speed, no heart rate, no distance, no GPS position. Is this some kind of a joke? Cause I'm not laughing.
The best c25k app I have ever used.
Simple, clean interface and doesn't crash continuously like another popular free c25k app.
During week 13 the first 3 min walk is actually only set for 2:30 every time.
This app is the bestttt.!!! Strongly recommend to anyone.!!
Its terrible
It's simple and effective.
Works like a charm
The app is OK but it regularly disappears from my Moto 360 requiring me to resync the stupid thing. This is daily.
Love this app. I am just getting back into running and I love that I can leave my phone behind. Just my head phones, watch and this awesome app. Hopefully by the time I am done with the 5k they will have a 10k.
Simple, easy to use, works perfect with my moto 360,
App is really good at what it does. The interface is much better Zen labs.
App itself is good however there are sync issues between watch and phone where the timings don't sync. The app sometimes loop's at the warm down as well. Also sometimes it sends data to Google fit and other times it doesn't. I have the paid version. Shame as it has so much potential.
My 5 min warm up walk turned into 30 mins because the timer stops when the screen is off on the watch
Using with Moto 360. Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but I had several issues right off the bat. * The timer was pausing in mid-run. I was able to stop it from doing this by changing the Always-on Screen setting on my Moto to on. * The notification vibration between splits is barely noticeable. As far as I can tell, there are no options to modify this. A stronger vibrate with a short, audible tone would be helpful. * The workout day for the C25K schedule does not automatically increment. Thus, one always has to remember which workout one is on and when one gets to the later workouts, one must scroll through all the previously completed workouts. Anyhoo, I will keep using. It looks like they are responsive to feedback.
It always crashes when you are running, close the app and reopen again
Since the March update this app is running smooth on both android and wear. The user interface is simple but elegant and cluttered free without all the useless gimmicks that other apps have. This is also the only app that I've found that allows wear only, so no need to lob a phone around with you. To add to the experience the customer service is second to none with the developer quickly responding to emails. I can't rate this app highly enough! !!
I started using this app in the gym but I find that the app and my SmartWatch (Sony SmartWatch 3) go out of sync so my phone says start your 60 sec run but my watch says I still have 20 SECS walking left! And it doesn't resync during this time!
Clear Instructions to try out the C25K challenge. Nothing fancy but it has the most critical components to schedule and keep up your running schedule.
Got this because it can work with AndroidWear w/o the phone present. Running latest version as of today. Phone is Samsung Note Edge, watch is Moto 360 Sport, updated to latest firmware last week. Problem: If your watch screen turns off, this app doesn't work. Lets say you have 10 seconds left to walk before you run. Your watch screen turns off. It will count down to the end of the walk cycle, and sit at the very beginning of the run cycle. Forever. Until you wake up the screen. So it could be 30 seconds later, and when you wake the face you immediately get the vibration and it says 1:59 left to run. If this limitation is inescapable, then maybe the app can turn your watch face constantly on while it is running. If that is not possible, a popup message reminding you to set your screen to ON instead of battery saver would be good. Also, if I'm looking at the app and accidentally swipe right, the app goes away and stops. If I try to open it back up hoping that it will continue where it left off, I'm out of luck. It starts all over again. This is NOT helpful!!! Please fix these issues!

I absolutely love this app! I've always had trouble running/jogging, and hated even the thought of it. The book Born To Run had me interested in it, though. So I kept trying and trying, always hating it. But the way this app sets a routine is amazing. I can jog without collapsing now, and what's more, I even look forward to my morning run!
