So the couchto5k app has been updated and yes... It erased all my data and history. Thanks for that.

Sorry to hear that, is there any chance they can put it right? (I've never used the app)

I'm sorry about that, unfortunately we are affiliated with the app but we have no way of being in contact with them. The admins and Healthunlocked are not involved with the technical side of the NHS. I suggest if there is a support email address on the app get in touch with them. The Laura podcasts are downloadable which makes them a little more stable.

It says in the update notes it's a complete redesign. All existing data will be deleted but can now start at any point in the 9 week schedule. Hopefully they have sorted out some of the niggles.

I've been having awful trouble with the pc version of this forum. Often I am refused entry and I have to reset my password to get in, and on lots and lots of posts I just can't see the replies. It's very frustrating. I can usually see everything on my phone, but when I try to type in replies if I make a typo and try to change it the whole thing freezes and I have to start all over again.

This may not be such a bad thing, as I do waffle on a bit given the opportunity ......

You're waffling on again :p Rickne is talking about the C25K running (the alternative to the Laura podcasts) not this forum.

I know :) I just hoped someone who works with this forum might see this and mend it!

I've left my feed back and will give it a spin tomorrow. Just a bit of a shame as there was little warning. The new app seems to of removed the percentage progression bar too. I'll just leave some constructive feedback on Google play.

It is naughty of them to do that but I don't think I've lost much, just the actual dates that I did the various runs.
