App problems

[Weff]

Hey guys! I seem to be having a problem with my app. I've just done W6R2 and during this one and the last run, the C25K app just stops halfway through!

I'm running along and I think "Hmmm I haven't heard Jo for a while..." check and it's gone off! I'm still completing the runs using my timer but it's a bit of a faf having to set that up whilst still running.

Anyone else had this problem?

Thanks in advance! X

I think quite a few people have experienced this. Maybe one of the admins might have a better idea, but it won't be too long until you are doing solid running, so I would just say to stick with the timers - have you tried downloading the high quality audio or maybe swap trainers for a session to see whether you might just have issues with Jo on your app specifically?

Ahh thank you! Yes the next runs are solid runs so will try changing trainer and set my timer just in case

I have then been putting the app on when I get home and leaving it to play (which seems to be working) but I feel like such a cheat!

[packersruns Graduate in reply to Weff]

I don't think that's cheating at all, if anything that's absolutely amazing as you are doing it without the motivation from the trainers during your run, which a lot of people rely on!

As long as you are doing the programme with the correct interval running and brisk walking, you are still doing the programme whether you are playing the app or not!

Thank you, yes it is a little harder without Jo! But I guess it's preparing me for graduation.

Yes that's true- even managed to sprint for the last minute today!

yep. had that in Wk6 R2 and R3

I thought it was somehow caused by me pausing the programme, so now always lock my screen and moved my phone to a belt rather than in the leg pocket

havent had the issue since

keep going !!! almost at the finish line!

Thank you for this! Hopefully it will sort itself out. I have my phone locked in a bumbag so I'm hoping it's just a blip in the programme. Did you have Jo as your trainer also?

[SB1724 in reply to Weff]

I did until week 6 and swapped to Michael, so when i got the blip I switched back to Jo!

was fine for the rest of the journey to graduation!!! good luck, Weff!
