No voice via airpods
I wrote to the company that makes this and received no response. I followed the faq troubleshooting and wrote a detailed message. Nothing.

Great!
Takes all the guess work out prepping for 5k.

The motivation you need!
Just enough to get you started running without all the off-putting complexity found in hard core runner apps - and no stupid subscription! The app gently increases the amount of running you will do each week so you're not overwhelmed and you can always repeat runs (or entire weeks) if you don't quite feel ready for the next step. Goals are celebrated regularly for encouragement. Even my spouse, who swore they'd never be a runner, has started using it and they're making great progress. Bottom line, the app is simple but it really works!

This is a great app!!
This is just after I finished my first run and it was very nice!! I like that it shows you your root and time per kilometer too!! I can’t wait to finish this and help improve my speed and reduce my asthma too!! Thank you so much!! Huge tip donated!!!

Fantastic App for Beginners
I’ve loved this app! I used this for my first 5k not using it for my first 10 k training!!!
- ★★★★★SunshineMango89
Works well but wish it included warm up/cool down in map
Overall, I really like this app. The program is easy to follow and works well with my Apple Watch. My one complaint is I wish it included the warm-up and cool down in the map and total distance at the end. It feels weird sharing the map with stats when it doesn’t include the extra 10 minutes of exercise.
- ★★★★★TotallyNotSuperman
An app that lets me disconnect
This app has been a great tool to help me get into running, and I’m especially happy with the ability to track my run while leaving my phone behind. The lack of subscription is a huge plus too; I’m happy to have paid the one-time fee, and I’m happy enough with the app that I hope to be adding on the 10K program before too long.
- ★★★★★Saint Alker
Not worth the money
This app doesn't take advantage of the detailed tracking apple watch provides. Although it saves your workouts in the fitness app, it only has really basic stats. No cadence, no heartrate zones. The UI is slightly clunky too.
