Does anyone else find the app voices extremely loud compared to their running music or audiobook apps? Might just be me ;–)

Just checking if it is just me, does anyone else find the sound/voices really loud? I have tried them all now (Michael, Laura etc). I like having my music quite loud but when it comes to the voice over, wow, it hurts so much that I have now resorted to having my music a little softer to avoid the ache from the voices... Need to find a happy medium as I really need to music a little loud for motivation.

It was Laura for me, enjoyed listening to her voice cut through my music. I’m partially deaf but had no trouble hearing her. Suggest you turn your music 🎶 down whilst running. 😊👍

🤣🤣maybe that's why the voice didn't sound loud to me . I had ear problems for 20 years and I'm a bit deaf also

I had the opposite problem. Sometimes the music didnt fade and Michael was so quiet I almost missed him.

Didnt have many completely smooth, tech issue free days to be honest :-(

Yep. I use spotify at same time as app. So much to learn! I have noticed that laura often seamlessly works with the music. Its sometimes as if I'm a professional DJ
