No Music with the NHS App?

I downloaded the NHS app but there's no music with the program. I have to keep selecting my own music (not a major issue) but I notice other people jesting about Laura's choice of music. How come I don't have any music?

I think the podcasts from itunes come complete with music whereas the app requires you to select your own.

It's the podcasts that have the music rather than the app.

Yep its the podcasts which have the music. You can download them from the nhs webpage for free.

I have no music on the app either. But would much rather make my own playlist to run to.

2 choices

1. Use the app and run your own play list at the same time, Laura will talk over the music.

2. Use the NHS podcasts but be stuck with their music choice.

I downloaded a murder mystery podcast from the Internet for my run yesterday and it was a great distraction.

Ahhh cool. I don't mind using my own music as I have been. She does cut in over the top, I just wondered i the app hadn't fully downloaded :)

The app is notoriously less reliable than the podcasts, and Laura's dodgy music is a graduation rite of passage -how else will you get to meet the infamous Julie?
