Watch to 5K Erfahrungen und Bewertung

Actually, this is a nifty app that works well. However, my understanding of “integrates with Apple Health” was a bit different from the implementation. I would expect that the app can write the data to Health, so Health can write it to other apps, too. Instead the data shows up in Activity only.

This app is great in its simplicity! It does what it’s supposed to – and does it extremely well: the app guides you (on your Apple Watch) through the popular Couch 2 5k program. No need to take your phone with you. But with the latest update you can track your progress in the app on your phone – great for motivation!

It has no community, no subscriptions, no blog, no podcast, nothing. And that is what I like most about it! ;)

Honestly, I don't think I ever would have learned to run without this app. Every time I tried to run in the past, I made the mistake of running as long and far in one go as I possibly could, then wondered why it felt so horrible and stopped. ''Couch to 5k'' apps like this slowly teach you to do 5k over the course of 9 weeks, but this is the only app I found that works independently on the watch. So for that alone, it deserves 5 stars!

Two suggestions:

- Run 3 in week 5 is a really massive jump from the previous run. You directly go from running 2x 8 minutes with a break to 20 minutes without a break. That's unnecessarily hard imo, especially when you're back down to 18 minutes with breaks the following week.
- I would love a 5k to 10k app from the same developer.

Honestly it’s just what I needed. To run without the need of taking my phone. The app is structured in a simple way, I can see my progress and I love that it tells me when I am half through. It is truly fun not to think about anything and simply follow the fitness plan! Best one time purchase app!

Great watch first app for a fair price. Keeping it to the core which is very much appreciated

Great app to get started and build a habit
