BEST Running App for Apple Watch in 2021 ... and it's FREE!

The Apple Watch is a GREAT fitness partner. But which running app for Apple Watch is the best? Which one has all the features you need??

Running with technology is so common nowadays, but how do you find the right technology partner to make sure you are getting everything you can out of each run? I have a few opinions on that... and I go through them in this video! Hope you enjoy!

Personally, when running with an apple watch, one of the most important things for me is to have all the info I need for my run right there on my wrist, and easy to get to. If I am running with a watch, I usually don't have my phone on me, which means all my music also needs to come from the watch itself.

If you're spending tons of $$$ on an expensive Apple Watch, you want to find the best apps for it! In my experience, the best running app for Apple Watch is Strava! There it is, the spoiler, ruining the climax of the video itself... but hopefully you watch at least for the entertainment value, right? Honestly running apps for the Apple Watch are everywhere now, but I think there are clear winners in the space!

There is a lot of personal preference involved when choosing the right running app for Apple Watch, but check out the video to see my opinions, and which apps can really make a difference when trying to get out there and run more!

Big thank you to my awesome subscribers! You guys rock 🤘🏻

Finding a running app that does everything right can be tricky... here are my thoughts on which Running App is the BEST in 2020!!

[bluesjmoon]

There is a big problem with nrc connectivity. Some runs didn’t synced to the iPhone. Actually I lost approximately 15k of run...it’s really a bummer...and no one is responding to my requests to get some answers...

I know it’s almost a totally different app with all the changes Nike has made. But I loved the OG app back when you had to use a chest strap for heart rate and the pod in your shoe to track.

I stopped running for a long time and just recently started to get back into it. Unless I just am missing seeing it NRC doesn’t even have a couch to 5k trainer. It doesn’t look like there’s much of anything for a person just starting out who could use some structure.

Good video looks like I need to get Strava a try when my watch comes in the mail next week.

I solely used Strava app until last month, but then switched to NRC because the calorie counting seems to be way off on Strava. I still sync my runs there though for the community feature!

Strava is missing a lot compared to any polar or Garmin device

[gergosandor]

Hy! I really loved your video! My question is, that do you know any running app, what is able to show the time of different laps? :)

Hey! Im a new runner and Im looking for an app for my apple watch that will coach, guide and alert me through my connected air pods. Being new to the world of running I would like to find something to where I can leave my phone behind as I go out for a run and use my watch to alert me when to walk then run and get those alerts through my connected air pods. Would you know if there is anything like that? I appreciate any insight you may offer. Again, great channel! Look forward to seeing more of your content.

Phew! What a result. Just what I would have hoped for. Waiting for my watch to arrive but got all my cycles and runs on there so far.

You dont get live segments on Strava apple watch, so if you sync Strava with any other app you use for running you get the same thing, so why is this feature something you like???

[CarlosAndreuRivera]

That’s cool that you say people’s names, good luck with the channel !

The Nike app doesn’t show how many miles you’ve ran when you are still running. Is it only me ?

[martyvaughntechreviewsandt]

Thanks for the shoutout! Love the review! I really like the Nike running plans that can be created through the running app. For some reason I have a had a lot of issues when I try to use the Nike app on my watch, so I have had to using the Apple running app on my watch, while I run with the Nike on my phone. Also, Strava is great! I love the community as well!

I prefer the adidas running app over Nike and Apple.

[graaf]

But you are brave, any other sports tech youtuber, comes to the conclusion that Strava is by far the simplest of them all, and lacks to much to be even considered to be usefull

[Cobbleswl]

WorkOutDoors is by far the best app! Granted you have a one-off payment but worth every penny. Check it out 👌
