I purchased the bronze package after forgetting to use my trial some time ago. At first glance, the programming seems solid. The performance nutrition is vague, but accurate. I went on my first run today, and was met with great disappointment. First, the app isn't very friendly to foreigners, as it fails to track your location outside its home country and as a result fails to track distance. The voice is very stale. The app overall is outdated and glitchy. HUGE potential, but needs an overhaul.

It helped me to finish the New York Marathon (11/02/2025). You need a cutting edge phone to enjoy all the features of this app. It was very accurate regarding the prediction for my time in the marathon; also it is great for work-outs: It tells you if you need to slow down or accelerate at every mile or kilometer (depending on your preferred distance-measuring guide). Enjoy it and never stop practicing Sports👊🏾.

Such a lengthy registration process should be a crime. That chat with the coach does literally nothing. There's no need. Even if the data is needed, there is a better way of doing it. I've used apps that know how to get the data they need as quickly as possible. The chat takes too much time for me just do what other apps do and make it a shorter procedure.

Hi! Thanks for the Feedback. Actually, all information from the chat with the coach is used to set up your plan. You are asked about your experience, your goals, the days you want to train on -> all of it is used later on. And it's a one time thing. Once it is set up, you are all free to start training :)
