About RunBoost: Running Coach
RunBoost is your personal running coach. Tell it your race, your goal time and how many days a week you can train, and it builds a week-by-week running plan around your actual fitness, then keeps adjusting it as your runs come in. HOW IT WORKS • Sign in with Apple and connect Apple Health: your recent runs, pace and heart rate come in automatically. Garmin, Polar and COROS runs reach RunBoost through Apple Health too. • Set a goal: a 5K, 10K, half marathon, marathon, a personal record, or simply getting fitter. • Get a complete running plan: easy runs, tempo runs, intervals and long runs, with target paces and heart-rate zones derived from your own data. • Run. Every workout is matched to the plan and scored on distance, pace and heart rate, with feedback from your coach. • Missed a session or ran on a different day? Your week is rescheduled for you. YOUR COACH Chat with your digital coach about any run, any week or the plan as a whole. It knows your history, your zones and your schedule, and proposes changes you approve with one tap. APPLE WATCH Send workouts to your Apple Watch, including structured interval sessions, and start them straight from the Workout app. The RunBoost watch app shows your upcoming sessions even when your phone is not with you. ALSO • Two-week check-ins that review your progress and fine-tune the plan • Heart-rate zones computed from your age and your real runs • Weekly insights and a shareable card for every run • A reminder for tomorrow's session • Available in English and Dutch RUNBOOST PRO RunBoost Pro gives you the coach chat, your full training plan and the analysis of every run. Subscriptions are billed through your Apple ID and renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel at any time in your App Store subscription settings. Privacy policy: https://www.runboost-app.com/privacy Terms of use: https://www.runboost-app.com/terms
What’s new
Version 1.0.12 · Updated October 7, 2026
A fresh look, more control over your plan and a quicker start: • Add your own session with "Add session" in your schedule, or delete one you don't need. • With RunBoost Pro, a new plan now opens in full: accept it, or adjust it with your coach first. • Recent runs now show their score, and every day you ran turns green in your training log. • Lose your connection while your coach is replying? The answer still comes through. • Pick times, paces and distances on a wheel instead of typing them. • Running with a Garmin, Polar or COROS? During setup, we help you link it to Apple Health first, so we can read your runs from day one.
