runo - Metronome for Running

I bought this app and paid the insanely high subscription cost just to have a metronome in my ear when I run. Great, fine, not happy but I did it. But now they dropped an update and it requires you to share your location with the app to function any more. No way around it. I’m sorry but I don’t want my location shared with some company I don’t know just to hear a metronome. Good luck with your app in the future. Update: the developer responded and said that they released an update to allow the user to select metronome only mode. I appreciate their response and app update and have since updated my rating. Thank you dev for listening to your users. That is rare in this day and age.

This app helped me keep a consistently higher cadence and helped manage/present injuries due to longer strides. It would be 5/5 if it was available on smartwatches.

This helps me focus on my run so much better than listening to music or a podcast can. I’ve noticed myself running further than usual and because I’m so focused on the beat I’m not focusing on my pace and trying to go too fast. It’s keeping me in zone two much longer than before so that I can get my conditioning to a better level. Love this.
