You have to pay now??
I used this app previously and loved it. Did the full 8 weeks. After not running for almost a year due to reasons I decided to download it again and get back out there.. but you only get week one and day one of week two?! Then you have to pay for the rest!!! No thanks. Deleting.

Used to love it but…
Used to love this app so much and really felt like it was working when I used it the first time. Now you have to pay started the second day of the second week.

Obnoxious Music
First day out with the app. Used to run a lot but I've been out of it for over a year so I wanted to use the app to ease back in. About 30 seconds from the end of the workout the app switched over to some sort of built in play list and started blasting horrible music over my podcast. Had to break my stride at the end of the workout to shut it off. Very annoying feature.

Purchased before they started the monthly subscriptions!
Purchased all of the zen lab apps before they went subscription based, now they are locked on me after I get to certain levels unless I pay for a subscription! I would have never paid for the apps if I knew that a year down the road I would have to start also paying a subscription!

Used to be free but now they lock you out after week 2
Seriously a good program, but now that they want to charge you 10 bucks a month, it isn't worth it. Look for Just Run, just as good of a program and it's free

I am absolutely disapointed. The concept is geat, but it crashes in the middle of every run and it is not possible to continue. All data disapppear. Thank God for my Fitbit watch that record my track. Waste of money. 😡Going to try app by different developer.

Miss This App
This app used to have extra bonus features available behind a paywall but the core function was free with ads. Came back this app and saw that it's locked to an expensive monthly subscription for use beyond the first week of the program. Give this a miss and use one of the apps that are still free instead.

Paywalls!!
Several years ago, I used [phone]K to get into shape. I loved it. There were some premium features locked behind a paywall, but you could complete the program for free at least. Well fast forward and I'm wanting to get back into shape after a long break from running. I turned to my favorite app, and discovered you can only do the first week for free. Now you have to pay monthly subscription fee to advance. Very disappointed and deleted immediately.
