Great app, but lacking some crucial features, such as the option to pause the program to account for sickness and injury, or the option to abandon a workout and start over.

I was disappoinginly mislead in my online running gear order
I was disappoinginly mislead in my order of running shorts from the Runna website. I am a massive fan of their training app, but am left dismayed after the experience purchasing gear. The company does not disclose that custom charges will be added to orders from UK to Ireland - adding 20% to the cost of my order before it could be delivered. I don't know another propoer online store where this is still a thing. I raised this with their customer service team as was completly dismissed. The added frustration is that the shorts don't fit and I need to return them, with no way of having my customs payment refunded. I would have re-ordered a different size, but it would mean a second customs charge. It is such a let down from a business I really respected.

Runna - Helping you meet your training goals
Runna is a very easy to use app which has helped me take over 30 mins so far off my marathon pb. It makes it very easy to set up a varied plan, custom made to the time you have, to meet any training goal, regardless of ability.

Impossible to unsubscribe your trial.
Impossible to unsubscribe your trial.
I have started a trial using Apple Pay thinking its safe and easy to cancel if the product does not fit my training. I have never been so wrong before, it looks polishef on the outside but there is no unsubscribe button on the app nor on their website. Instead they referent you to a ”reseller company” that have a site that ask you to fill in the email that you signed up with eventho you already signed in to their site to even get the redirected link to padda.. the problem is that im not recieving any mail thats supposed to allow me to unsubscribe which is what they claim is supposed to happen. And their support does not respons, padda the reseller directs you to Buddy ltd and they have not answered me now after 4 days and the subscribtion is soon activated.
So in summary they sent an email with a link to my email that i made the trial on where im entering a 3rd party site that ask me to send my email that i made the trial on so i can get another email with a link to the unsubscribe button, and im not recieving this email. How does this make any sense?? This is so scetchy i feel like calling the police

Hey David, thanks so much for sharing your feedback! It's great to hear you're enjoying Runna. Keep up the great work - no doubt you'll get some more PBs soon!
High Price, Low quality
Extremely basic run training program that you could get much better sessions for free online but being sold at an extortionate price.
Doesn't take into account any external variables and has awful race predictor capabilities although this is typical of any algorithmic running software.
I think this is mean to be aimed at coach to 5k style runners who just need to get out the door and run but has no place being advertised as any kind of replacement to just doing your own training or speaking to any free local coach

Cash Grab.
They asked me for 19,99€ per month for subscription and they don’t offer simple features like “edit” your run time and distance after one is accomplished.
Training plans are looking similar and warmup/cooldown sessions are repetitive and unclear, not easy to follow.
Wasn’t able to get my refund from them or Apple Store either.
To me this is a complete SCAM!
Shame on your “cash grabbers!”

Hi Max,
Firstly, we're very sorry to hear that you have experienced this frustration. We are continually updating new features within the app and therefore we value your feedback. At the moment it's not possible to edit a recorded run but we do offer the option to add a manual version which results in the correct paces and distance of your workout! If you have any questions, we'd love to help with this, and the best way we can do so is via our In-app Support tab, where we can view your account information and help you directly there!
At this moment in time, we work with Apple, Android and Paddle to manage our payment and refund processes. Lastly, in the event you have requested a refund, refunds are processed these quickly and easily, but it's important that these are requested within the 48 hour window of being charged. Please do reach out to us in-app or via email and we'll be there to help with as much as we can on our side!
Once again, apologies for your frustration and were to help if you require further assistance.
Apps easy to use
Apps easy to use. Training programs are good. Sometimes the pace targets seem high, but there nearly always achievable. The programs seem to vary week to week which helps maintain motivation.

I’ve had 2 out of 2 runs fail to upload…
I’ve had 2 out of 2 runs fail to upload from my Apple Watch. One of them eventually synced, but the other was recorded in Apple Health with a “1 sync pending” status that wouldn’t resolve — even after restarting the watch, phone, and toggling Bluetooth. I ended up deleting the app on my iPhone, which caused me to lose the data. I can still see it in Apple Health, but it’s extremely frustrating.
Since I’m currently on a 2-week trial, I’m unlikely to continue using the app if I can’t trust it to reliably record my runs. The app looks good with the UI but it’s failing at the simplest task

Hey John, thanks for sharing your feedback. We're really sorry to hear you've had some syncing issues and can understand how frustrating this must be!

They can also extend your trial so you can fully experience everything Runna has to offer. Please contact them via the in-app Support Tab or email at support@runna.com.
I would rate as zero stars if I could
I would rate as zero stars if I could! This is a complete con. I signed up on a one month free trial, found the app impossible to use so tried to cancel. Turns out it’s absolutely impossible to cancel your subscription once you have signed up, even with a deleted account they continue to charge you!

Hey Emma,
Firstly, we're very sorry to hear that you have experienced this frustration. We'd love to help with this, and the best way we can do so is via our In-app Support tab, where we can view your account information and help you directly there! If you prefer, you can reach out to us via hello@runna.com, with your account information such as the email you registered with too. With an Monthly Runna Premium membership, you'll receive access to the app, custom training plans and more! However, if you choose to cancel, you subscription should not continue and therefore no further charges should be made. As such, we're a little confused why you cannot access further.
If this relates to your account or payment method, we can look into this too and act accordingly depending on the method used! At this moment in time, we work with Apple, Android and Paddle to manage our payment and refund processes. Lastly, in the event you have requested a refund, refunds are processed these quickly and easily, but there could be a delay to this reaching your account. Please do reach out to us in-app or via email and we'll be there to help with as much as we can on our side!
Once again, apologies for your frustration and we hope to help you with this as soon as you reach out!

Great running plans and I love that it gives notifications which I find helps keep me accountable. Also the yearly subscription is quite affordable if you think about how much you're saving per month, but it is still pricey enough for me to feel like I have to use it once I've paid for it.

Disappointing success
I really really wanted to like this app and it appeared fantastic but I struggle with the app and find it extremely challenging to utilise the app and add in or adjust runs and then start the recording of the run. The support is good but not necessarily effective.
It is a real shame as I selected this app from positive reviews but it just isn’t simple to use for me and I am very sad to post this review on my perception of the app
