Running Trainer: 5K Runner App Reviews

Nice Support to my training <3

Got fed up with large 150mb+ apps when I just need a simple gps tracker and analyse my progress. My gym buddy told me about this app and Im glad I got it, its practical and simple. the coaching voice-overs are a great added bonus

After trying other apps that would constantly break down and never keep good track of the real distance I was running, I settled for Personal Running Trainer. It provides all the data I want at the conclusion of a run. 100% Perfect for me.

I wish it would sync to fitness pal. Thats the only down side of this app!

Good app. Some features I like are the audio statistics (distance, speed, pace voice over music), integrated music player, option to use GPS or not. Happy so far...

As new runners, my dog and I are learning to love running! This app makes it easy to listen to your favorite music and ease into running!

Fantastic training app! Motivating coaching & plenty of options to train for different distances. Highly recommended!!

Im only on day two of the mile trainer but I already love it. I like that it lets you play music from other sources and lowers the volume so you can hear his voice. I also like that you can repeat weeks as often as you need to in order to get up to speed. Overall I feel like this is a good pace for beginning runners like myself, and am excited to keep training with this app.

I started the 5k program but cant finish it without making a $3.99 purchase in week 2. I feel scammed into making a purchase because I wasnt informed of the purchase when I started it...maybe its in the fine print somewhere but who reads that?!?! There are better totally free running apps out there.

Love this trainer so far as I am getting back into the swing of running!

At first the distance was close but always different measurement one way verses the other (I run straight down the road and back). It was about 2 tenth of a mile off on a 3.2 mile run (measured both with my car and Google Maps) Now it says Im only running a little over 1.5 miles on the same run (I have it set to use Cellular and GPS) When it was .2 miles off no biggy buy now its less than functional.

I absolutely love this app and think it is very helpful.

I love this app! This was my first time using it, but Ive tried other running apps, and this is by far my favorite! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Very very helpful for a beginner. Perfect beginning pace!

I started the 5k program training and I am surprise how well I am doing! One of the best apps for sure!

I enjoy this app! Its paces you and is enjoyable

This is my first attempt at becoming a rubber and this app has been my coach. I love it! My only problem is I cant forgive out how to get the music player to stop repeating the same song over and over...

This is the only app Im able to run to. I love how it tells you what to do. No thinking, no checking the status. It tells you. Great job!

Dont be fooled, this app looks like its free, but you only get one week of each program before being expected to purchase. It is nice you can try before buying, but really, not even the 1 mile trainer or 5k is free?

This app is great for the 1 mile and 5k trainer, so it gets 2 stars for those. But, the 10k program is a mess. You simply cannot rely on the timing it announces. For example, this morning it told me I was going to do a 40 minutes steady run. However, the announcement for the end of the run didnt come on until 45 minutes, BUT, the timer showed 40 minutes when I stopped it. Ive encountered many other issues in the 10k program, such as telling me I was starting my run when I was supposed to be entering the cool down period, and also showing that I wasnt even half way through a run when I was at the end of it! These kinds of problems are ridiculous, because a developer with a stopwatch and a little patience could easily have found these kinds of bugs before it was ever published. If you want to use it for the 1 mile or 5K, it is great, but dont bother buying the 10k. Im going to look for another app for 1/2 marathon and longer training because this is a sad mess.
