  • Not always accurate

    I really enjoy the variety in drills this app provides, and love that each day there’s a different part of the story. I always do this on a treadmill, though, and have my phone on the stand rather than in my pocket because I like to keep track of the time. 1 - even though I have the settings to track steps rather than GPS the app doesn’t believe I’m going anywhere because my phone isn’t in my pocket. 2 - some of the descriptions for each day aren’t what is actually done each day. For example, week 6 says run 12 min but it’s actually walk fast for 5 and free form run 7. Week 6 day 1 has you run 7 min walk 2 min twice but the last 7 min run is actually 8 min. Sometimes the amount of time that is noted isn’t accurate. These are all things I can get past but still simple annoyances to fix.

  • I am a runner!

    Just completed my couch to five K program final mission ran entire five K with out walking! When I started I could not run for a full minute. I am so thankful for the creators of this app and very proud of my self. If you are thinking of trying this out, do it! Fun story which lays some ground work for the actual zombies run app. Trust the process, even cheat a little if you need to, repeat a mission if you need to ! But trust the process. The final mission was extra cool as each of the characters come to congratulate you. I loved this app, now on to Zombies run!

    I typed in my email and it won’t let me create an account. It won’t tell me what I’m doing wrong. I can’t use the app. It’s useless. Don’t bother.

  • Still no Apple Watch connectivity?

    If there’s any app that cries out for Apple Watch connectivity it’s this one. Hard to believe that’s still not there.

    Every time I use this app, it crashes at the end of my run and does not record my results. I love the idea of having an ongoing story to encourage running, which is exactly why I decided to use this app instead of the app I used prior to having some medical issues, but this decision was a mistake.

  • Great training, buggy interface

    By wlizard
    The actual training is great, with stellar voice acting and a beginner-friendly program that ramps up each week. However, the menu lags so much that it takes forever to navigate to the correct training option—it can take me up to five minutes of waiting around and restarting the app (as it sometimes crashes while loading the later weeks). I’ve never had the app crash or act up once I’ve started a run, it’s just the menu.

  • Keeps Crashin

    By Captn Kanukles
    The app keeps crashing when I’m almost at the end. It even happens when it’s the only app open at times. My phone is updated and I have plenty of storage. I don’t even think I want to try Zombie Run at this point.

  • Good app, has some problems

    This app is exactly what I needed to get me running again. The story isn’t /really/ a story as it is with the regular zombies, run app, but it’s enough to keep me engaged and make me want to keep going. It does crash semi regularly though, especially with the run tracker set to “constant” and there’s no way to start back up where you left off after that, so just keep that in mind. Update: It has crashed 4 out of the last 5 times I’ve used it. I think I’m beginning to figure out what makes it crash but it’s suuuuuuuper irritating. If you’re like me and you’re doing this in part because you like getting the little “well done!” notices and stamps at the end DO NOT USE THIS APP; it’s causing me a lot of stress and making me want to give up entirely. For less of a chance of it crashing turn on step tracking, keep your screen on, and do Not exit the app at any time during the workout. That includes pulling down the shortcuts screen. It might still crash even then, but it will more likely to not. Good luck.
