Beginner friendly and not complicated. Makes the sessions enjoyable which is encouraging. No aching muscles as it's set to accommodate your fitness level. The Audio instructions are the best.

The app is the only one I can find that has the Coach 2 5k that I can use the watch only and leave my phone at home. But it is limited to what it can do. Even pairing headphones to my watch, there are no voice prompts to confirm to move to the next segment or what that segment is. If you exit while on a work out to skip a song for instance, the workout stops and resets. Would happily pay for premium if this worked as I need it to but back to taking my phone on runs I guess
