Customer Feedback:
"The popular Couch to 5K app helps new runners avoid injury from doing too much, too soon."
—Runners World, June 2012
"It's ridiculously easy to use (it's hard not to, as you just do what you're told) and it's fantastic that you have an encouraging voice talking you through things."
—Engadget, June 2012
"Active.com’s Couch to 5K is one of my favorite… apps. With its customizable features, interactivity, and well-rounded interface, I may actually stay off the couch this time."
—148Apps, October 2011
"I knew as soon as I decided to start the Couch to 5K program that I would need something to keep me accountable—not just to showing up for my training, but to actually doing it properly. Of course there’s an app for that."
—CalorieLab, April 2012
"If you have been struggling to get your buns off the couch and somewhat in shape before the summer hits, training for a 5K is not a bad way to start. If you are looking for a program to help get you there, then the “Couch to 5K” running plan by CoolRunning is probably your best bet if you haven’t done an ounce of athletic activity for a number of years."
—Droid Life, April 2012

Note:
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
The Couch to 5K coach you select talks to you during your workouts. To save your battery, Couch to 5K sends audio notifications when your screen is locked or another app is in use.
To be sure you hear the coach during your workout, please do the following:
• Turn on Notifications permissions
• Turn on the hardware ring/silent switch (no red showing)
• Turn your ringer volume up
• Turn off Do Not Disturb (swipe up for Control Panel and the moon button should not be white)
• Within the app, in Settings > Workout Options, be sure the Trainer Volume is up
Without granting notification permissions, during a workout you can click the lock icon at the top left to keep the app active and still hear the coach.
For support please contact us at: [email protected] We would love to hear from you.
Once you purchase the app, it is yours to keep. It does not expire after 9 weeks.

This is the one

Does everything you need it to do and for a reasonable price. Didn’t want to get trapped with ongoing subscriptions etc and this app does everything I want. Have used for two weeks and will keep going.

Can’t rave about this enough!

This ap is perfect for beginners and anyone else who loves to have data and evidence of improvement! The gradual build up is amazing and I love that you can choose who’s cheering you on.

So good for those who need a bit of motivation

poisonIV11 on

Love this app it’s so good to get you started exercising again. If you’re on the fence… this is worth the price! Get it.

I’m off the couch!

Only a few days in but my teen and I are enjoying the coaching.

Not work for me

Johnkey666 on

New Zealand

Can't get voice when using Spotify so basically no help for me, and yes I have tried all the app advice if sound not working

Getting there

Alnezer17 on

New Zealand

Mine tends to freeze on the first stage especially towards the end when I’m warming down, the timer stops and it will take me back to the beginning if I go out of it but aside from that the prompts push you to jog and I’m hoping it will get me to my goal

Just what I needed!

NikNock on

Wonderful app, thanks

Best App Ever

For two years this app has motivated me to get out jogging. Despite setbacks, I did a 5km fun run. The app stopped me from over-training, and now it's helping me train for another 5km. Ray Salisbury (51)

Fantastic app to get running

Cmrhowie on

New Zealand

Great to get me going again. Heaps of improvements since first version. Love it.

Brilliant!

popstar1232132 on

This makes running for 30 minutes non-stop achievable. I never thought I'd be able to say that. I've tried other apps but this one I love! It has verbal cues to tell you when to walk and when to run. It tracks your pace and distance as well as gps tracking where you went. Now I'm a graduate I've started again from week 6 with a focus shift from running for 30 minutes, to running for 30 minutes faster.
