Couch to 5k running app

Would be 5 but can't create copy on forerunner 235 so have to keep uninstalling and re-installing as I don't want minute markers when doing a non-C25k run. Does only take seconds though now I know what I am doing.

I hope it's Good...EVEN GREAT; once I can use it! I can't find it on my Forerunner 235. I've downloaded it and synced it to my watch, but when I check the IQ Apps section, it's not there. Can someone please direct me to what I am doing incorrectly?

Someone mentioned that the background needs to be white - that fixed my problem! Thanks for the great data field.

The gold standard for doing C25k on a Garmin. I’m on week 6 and have been very happy with it. The only downside has been trying to find a C210k data field/app that is just as good!

Thanks to another reviewer who resolved issue - on 4s at least - the background color has to be set to white to see the prompts.

Great app, took me a while to figure out how to put it on my watch but now I have it it's fab. Thanks

Hi, so far I like the app. Just a little bit of feedback which would've saved me some time! Tell in the description of the app that for the data field to show the interval timer and which workout you're on you have to set the background color to white instead of black. When using black all you see is couch to 5k. Otherwise love the app and thanks!

Very cool, followed another reviewer's guidance for setting up the data field, had my first run yesterday and very excited to keep training, much easier than the phone based app i was trying to use previously.

What attracted me to this app (apart from being FREE :) ) is that it pegged for the epix AND the timings perfectly align with the MP3 exercise narration files available (also for FREE) from the UK NHS Couch to 5k website. Perfect I thought, wrist aligned with ears. Unfortunately, using the app on my epix, which is listed as compatible, causes it to crash with an "IQ!" symbol so I can't tell if it works for me. I'm now on week 2 of the programme and have contacted the developer offering to send debug files, but have so far heard nothing back. I'm certainly not criticising the efforts of developers who make this stuff for free (I make similar volunteer efforts in other walks of life) and who try to keep the amazing epix device supported (shame on you there, Garmin!), it's just a pity that this app can't reach all the potential runners, especially aligning so well with the audio files (which is what's driving my training now, using the epix to just record a normal 'run'). I'll attempt to update the review if the situation changes. Huey.

Help please - same problem as @Erjon from May 2020 (I have a 4s): Vivoactive 4. The field just reads “Couch to 5k” without timer or any other indication that is working. The vibration though works properly according to the workout. Any idea what is wrong?

Me gusta mucho, solo falta que sea estética pero ... con el tiempo

Great idea. Works ok, but a few little tweeks could make super. On transitions the timer starts and gives a small transitory cue to jog, or walk. Rather than just a short cue of run, i would alternate the phase run/walk with the timer constantly, say 10 sec timer and 2 sec cue. Reasoning....in the pain of the gain, and due to the fact that laps can come in at same time as transitions and the fact one may "miss" transition buzzes, one can miss transitions. If possible make datafield bigger, would be ideal to use whole screen largest fonts. Some of us have difficulty due to small font sizes and especially in dim light. What is cue to move on from week to week? Would be good if the user could stall moving on a week (or set week). This gives the user the opportunity to do a week for longer if they want. These are just usability improvement suggestions. I will still continue to use and enjoy app. It beats taking a phone with you. Thanks, Owain

Works great on my vivoactive 4s. I have done a C25k in the past so knew generally what to expect. Using it to rehab a broken ankle and coach my husband through the C25k for the first time. It works as described. I took one star off as the first few weeks the last walk interval goes directly into the 5 min walk cool down. Really it still works, but sometimes we cut the last 5 min walk shorter and other times we just walked longer.

Took a while to work out how to get it onto my watch but when I did it works great. Started at week four as I have a (minimal) base fitness. The prompts are great for motivation. To see it on your watch, once downloaded on your phone and synced. On your watch go to run, settings, data screens, select a screen (any), then select layout, mine has 4 options. Next select edit data screens, you can then click on one of the 4 options and change it to couch to 5k. After running the first run I went back Into the app and it’s automatically moved forward by 1 run for next time.

Took me a while to figure out how to get in on my watch in the data field, but when I did it worked well for the first run. What I can’t figure out is where to view anything on my app? When I go to use my watch again it is still stuck on week 1 Day 1.

Did my first run with this app, starting at week 5 day 2 as I was using my phone before buying my Vivoactive 4. Using 3 data faces didn't show me any times related to c25k, just showed the text that said "Couch to 5k", not sure if having just 1 data face will change this. The 1 minute vibrations do motivate you, but I personally don't find them necessary. Not sure if I can sync the data with the C25K app on my phone to keep track. I will come back to update my review after a few weeks. For now, so far so good.

am using 735XT, struggled and felt frustrated for 4 days to find out the app on watch, in phone it shows installed. It's data field. Please see posts below by Jung Kim, Annie, Anabel..... Thanks to them for giving instructions how to find it on the watch (device). Thanks a ton to developer for giving this app.

Just completed week 5 run 3 this morning. This data field has worked perfectly the entire time. No problems. Would recommend.

Was loving the app up until week 5 run 2 when it didn’t run the session. I have done nothing different with the watch or the app for it not to work and now I have set the app to start the next run as week 5 run 3 and when I go into the run function on the watch it is not running the session. Anyone know how to fix this before my next run?

Uninstalled it. Have tried, but simply have no idea how this is supposed to work. I’m very tech savvy but I simply don’t get this...
