A free Apple Watch app that coaches you from walking to running 5K with a friendly little runner, guided run/walk intervals and wrist taps.

The app doesn’t show my heart rate or distance. On your iPhone, open Settings → Privacy & Security → Health → Tiny Runner and turn on the permissions. For distance, also check Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → Tiny Runner.
Do I need my iPhone with me? No. Tiny Runner runs entirely on your Apple Watch. Distance is most accurate on watches with GPS.
Where are my runs saved? Each run is saved as a workout in Apple Health, so it appears in the Fitness app and counts toward your Activity rings.
Is Tiny Runner free? Yes. No ads, no subscriptions, no accounts.
Tiny Runner doesn’t collect any data. Read the full privacy policy.
Tiny Runner is an independent app and is not affiliated with the official Couch to 5K® or C25K® programs.
