Celebrity voice

Hi

Has anyone else had the message on the App saying unable to play chosen celebrity at this time? I've had this message since my second run on week one, I've just completed run one on week two. I can get round it by choosing a new celebrity, but I'd rather stick with the same one.

Any ideas?

Could be that your phone hasn't enough memory, try to delete some unused apps, also delete the C25K app then reinstall it and see what happens.

Thank you, I have deleted some apps and it's still the same. I don't really want to uninstall the couch to 5k as I will lose my progress.

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

The app is flakey in many ways.

The podcast version is linked to in the guide........but the music is not to everyone's taste.

Enjoy your journey.

Hi

This happened to me a few times, I needed to come out of the app completely (lots of pressing back!) and then go back in and it then worked.

I made sure I closed all my apps as well as often its possible to have multiple ones going on in background on my phone which I'd an android.

HTH cos I found that annoying too!

Hello there! To be honest mine does it quite regularly and I just click on 'okay' Laura is always still there the next time I run?🤷‍♀️

This happens to me a lot - close the app completely and restart and it will work again :)

Thank you to everyone who has replied. I've got a few ideas now. Next run is tomorrow 😬

It could be that the celebrities are having to work from home and their broadband might be a bit slow 😉

Yeh this started happening to me in the past few runs, what I had to do was choose another person and then go back and change it back to the original person I was using
