CindiP42 Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Hi, everyone! I just re-started running with the couch to 5k app. I had used a different app previously but lost it when I changed phones. I came across the zenlabs app and love it! Right now I'm using the free version. I've read the descriptions of both the free version and the pay version, but haven't seen any difference between the two. I'll be happy to buy the full version if it is an upgrade. Can anyone tell me what the pay version has that the free version doesn't?

MåRíA Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Good question! I'm perfectly happy with the free version. Even the ads don't bother me that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvincent78 Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 I have the Pro, and I think the ads are the only difference. My personal thing is if I find an app I really get a lot out of, I'll spring for the paid version to support the developer. Plus we get the free forum use here, so to me purchasing the app and supporting Zen Labs is a small way for me to give back. But that's just me and my way of doing things...

kmrogers Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 No ads, but you can also get the apple watch app with the pro version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimbulaxan Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 You see that big circle that counts down your current run/rest time remaining? Well, if you click on it and you have the Free version you get a pop-up that tells you at least one of the perks of the Pro version. If you have the Pro version, you actually get to see these perks. The perks are, upon clicking the circle, it will display your distance run, upon clicking the circle again, it will display your calories burned, and finally by clicking on the circle again, it will revert back to displaying the time remaining. (There may be more perks but this is all the pop-up tells me.) I use a Samsung Galaxy S5 which came with the S Health app which already provides this information when running, however, I downloaded C25K to be more strategic about my training and I have tried to use both apps together and for some reason, S Health still provides my distance run so far (as well as current speed/pace) but it no longer provides my cadence (steps per minute) or calories burned, but the Google Fit app still reports these values.

Jschaferhess Posted December 3, 2016 Report Share Posted December 3, 2016 I went with the pro version to eliminate the ads. I use Runkeeper and MapMyRun to track my workouts. It's funny, I tried out both apps to see which one I like better, and now I can't let either of them go because I like different things about each of them. I prefer those two apps because they're gps-based allowing for more accurate distance. Far more accurate than c25k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
