Review summary

Start 2 Run is praised for its motivating and clear beginner running programs with a helpful voice coach. However, many users report app crashes causing session restarts, GPS accuracy problems, and unexpected changes to subscription access for previously purchased programs. Some also note premature audio prompts and miss in-app music features. The app works well mainly for outdoor use but has usability and functionality issues that affect the overall experience.

Pros

The training programs are motivating and well-structured for beginners to restart running.
The app offers clear and interactive coaching with a good voice coach.
Easy to use and helps users maintain a running routine after breaks.
The app is especially good for outdoor running sessions.

Cons

Frequent app crashes during sessions, causing loss of progress and frustration.
GPS tracking issues leading to inaccurate distance measurement and session failures.
Subscription model changes have led to loss of access to previously purchased programs, upsetting existing users.
Audio prompts sometimes announce session completions prematurely, causing confusion.
Lack of music integration within the app, which was present in previous versions, disappointing some users.
