Great Run Training for Android
It's handy to view your training programme but I wouldn't advise using the app to record your runs. After my first 4 mile run the app failed to save the run and went back to the start.
Other running apps seem to manage, so I don't understand how this one fails so spectacularly. It's slow, clunky, fails to track runs - and trying to do it manually seems to be too much for it. Such a shame.
I haven't even been able to use the app because it won't recognise my login details. Well done.
Starts to track my run but then it manages to stop tracking midway through!!!
Awful. Can't add a run. Can't check off a run as being done on the plan. Useless.
Non-metric input of weight didn't make sense (st v. lb??). Could not customize schedule (I wanted 3 days/week M, W, F but it started on every Sunday). Dates cannot be changed to American format.
Selected the Great Bristol 10k, and the event distance is set to "5k". Then asked for the day for my long run, but long to is set to "no". What a load of rubbish. I'll stick with C25K...
I'll give you your due, it must have taken some quality developers to develop an application that is this 5h17 If you can't do it properly, don't do it! If I could have given it Zero stars, I would have!
Utter shite doesn't let me log in
Well it managed to record 1 of my 3 runs. Pathetic
How do you make you own program? The pre-planned one does not work for me and my other commitments? It schedules a run when im working ect
Just about useful for the training diary. It uses GPS location all the time draining battery like hell. It flashes up security token updated as a grey box over anything else you are doing sometimes every 5 minutes. Doesn't give you pace per mile or splits, very poor app. Also as mentioned by others the app starts your cumulative running time one hour more than is right, this hasn't been fixed since at least Jan 2016.

I already have a great run login. But as per the other rates on here I cannot login. Which would be very useful to keep track on my training. Please let us know when this is fixed. Happily change the rating if this is fixed.
Really devs... Always test your app before posting. If you need help, let me know. Don't just post anything up and sort it out later.
I cant register at all. One star is too many
Doesn't go passed sign in, please sort it out quickly.
By far the worst app on this store. Just delete it, it's worth nothing.
Looks good but can't log in.. Until I can 1 star and unstalling!
Utter shite doesn't let me log in
Can't get started
Can't even sign in so uninstalled.
Can't log into it to access my training plan - pointless!
Can't log in
New version updated itself and I now can't set up a new training plan and it doesn't even sync with what you set up on the Website. Truly Awful app.
Completely useless if it won't go past the login screen.

Can't log in so can't even use the app properly. Will change my review when I can actually use it but it appears this app has been abandoned by the creators as no fix or attempted fix has been made for months.
Promised to be much more convenient than the main website but refuses to let you log in. Tried reinstalling it several times to no avail. Major problem for such a big brand not being up to the job.
Can't log in. Just wanted a means of tracking and having my training plan to hand instead of logging on to website all the time but can't even log in... Not very useful!
A great app, makes it so much easier to record times and distance rather than using a separate app and transferring to the website! Well done Great Run and thank you! Great South Run here I come :) Edit - I can't log in!! So frustrating! Back to logging runs on other apps and transferring. What's going on? Please help. Still can't sign in, massively disappointed! Please sort! It's been months!
Used to work fine but logged me out and won't let me back in no matter what I do.
Simply doesn't work on Android 5. Run along now, working apps available...
If I could give you a pile of poop instead of 1 star, I would have. It's a complete waste of time.
I can't sign in....frustrating
I've used the website for several years after Great Run took over "Take to the Streets" and I've used the app for a couple of years, mapping and recording runs. However, recently, I haven't been able to log in on the App and I don't know why.
After choosing an event on the drop down menu, it resets to a completely different date and totally ignores the day I picked for a long run. Have to log in to the website to set up a plan that works. I've had these issues since I first downloaded the app two years ago. Please sort it out!
Can't log in. Complete waste of time.

Hitting the back button once too many times takes you to the login page, which makes no sense (as you then have to login again). The calendar can't be viewed as a week and is just a row of days that only shows the date (01, 02, 03, etc) but not the actual day (Mon, Tues, Wed) so hard to see at a glance what day a run falls on. Easier just printing the training schedule off the site then using a different app)
