I can't even download the app onto my phone (android) so frustrating….. Can't even get started.

Hi Jemmima Where are you downloading the podcasts from? itunes, NHS Livewell?

Folks say that the mp3 player is a more stable platform for the program than the phone, but there are lots of folks using their phones here so they might shed some light on what the problem is.

Don't worry, someone will be able to help you I'm sure and you'll soon be able to get cracking with C25k. It's the best thing since sliced bread so don't you dare give up on

Hopefully someone will be along in a minute. Don't despair. Hang on!

The app is pretty flaky - I started using it but switched to the podcasts. If you want to use an app, there are others around that follow the same plan. Don't bottle it!

[Jemmima58 in reply to Steve_L]

Glad it's not just me, won't bottle it, but have 2 paint 2 rooms 2day & don't have time 2 faff around trying to get it, why isn't it more straightforward????

Have your tried the version through google playstore?

I downloaded this, but didn't like it because it wasn't really compatible with my music mixes. (play music files)

I now use the mp3 podcasts and download them from my computer and transfer them to my phone using the usb charger cable. I think this is the best (easiest) way personally.

And you'll hate the music to start with, then it'll get inside your head and you'll wake up in the middle of the night humming it!

Maybe say where you're trying to download to? I stream the podcasts through my windows phone using the podcasts feature. Other phones/mp3 players will be different though. (I also switched from app to podcasts, and cheesey music somehow grew on me too )

Sorry - just saw you said android - do you have a podcast streamer on there? Anyone here streaming podcasts on an android phone?

[Jemmima58]

Oh, thnx everyone for all your replies and help, will try later when I've finished painting. Think I'll try podcasts & hopefully it'll work. Great forum, so supportive. Thnx

I've just started Day 1 and the version I have has no music playing its silent and the lady only speaks when she says "its time to run now or walk" - do I have the right app? Its "Change 4 Life"? thank you in advance

[mancunianpoodle in reply to Debbie4625]

yes that's the right app. theres no music on the app, you play your own music in conjunction with it. Atleast you do on my iPhone app. h2h

If you want the music AND Laura you need the podcasts.
