Reviews: What People Think About Watch to 5K－Couch to 5km plan

Rating: 5/5
I generally don’t write reviews but I kinda had to for this app. I’ve run pretty seriously before so I’m familiar with how you can set intervals inside the Apple workout app on your watch. The thing is, everything on this app you can basically do yourself or cobble together from a couple different apps for free. And it’s kinda fiddly and doesn’t always work how you want it to, and for couch 2 5k you would have to make a decent amount of pre-sets. So this app is just nice, pay a reasonable price once, and get a solid native watch project that lets you skip the head ache. I still encourage people to figure out how to set intervals for themselves in the mean time. It’s good not to feel like you Have to pay for stuff like this and to have the freedom to set up custom workouts. But when your picking up running again, it’s really easy for small speed bumps to stall you. And having just like the first month or 2 of training totally preset can smooth the way

This app is everything I’ve been looking for. I’ve completed the program a few times (!) using different apps and none of them come close to this one (including the one from Active). This is a native Watch app, as opposed to an afterthought for a phone app, and it shows. No fluff, everything that you need and nothing that you don’t.
I hate running with my phone. With this app, I can just leave it in my car and go. No setup, no fiddling for 5 minutes. No endless confusing settings. It just starts, and it just works. The prompts are clear as day and to the point, the voice is not annoying (I do appreciate the GB accent!). Integration with the Music app and my bluetooth headset is flawless.
Lastly, the Watch screens are great. Easy to read, and again, to the point.
Integration with the Health app just works. I really like that it logs separate workouts for warmup/run/cooldown. But maybe that should be an option.
I’m in week 3 and haven’t found a bug yet.
The only improvement I’d ask for would be to be able to see the workout details before doing them.
Oh, and a Watch to 10k app :)
There’s nothing like putting on your running shoes and just going out with nothing but your car keys in your pocket.
Thank you. I would have gladly paid more.

After searching through dozens of subscription based apps for this function including the big names who I think just got greedy, this is a refreshing gem. One time payment, flawless simple functionality, clean interface, no ads or up-sells, no subscriptions or ‘pro’ tier. Just a really solid app that gets out of your way and does the job. I understand it is called WATCH to 5K because it can function on just your watch without you having to drag your phone on your workout, slapping your leg and potentially getting caught in the rain, however, it does come with a companion phone app that is equally thoughtfully designed. There are rewards, you can see a map of your runs, option to automatically update to Apple health as a workout. I cannot recommend enough.
