As told previously, we needed to go back to the drawing board to rethink some essential flows in the app. When app features leave room for discussion or interpretation, and thus the need for our users to contact me to shine my light on the subject, it means we designed them wrong.
The most frustrating part of the app according to hundreds of users.
I’ve already told you about our UX redesign, and why it’s necessary. But where to start? Well, with an UX review of the current app. What are the most frustrating things about Trenara in its current version? Do you know what ‘rage taps’ are? No? Well, you probably already executed them.
A Trenara UX redesign: why?
In January we’ve started a strategic UX redesign (UX: user experience). Our goal is to design/develop a more user-centric app.‘Well duh’, you might think, ‘everyone wants that.’. But for us it’s a little bit different…
Future-proof: in-app support, link to trainer platform and some visual updates.
After months of testing, the time has finally come: a new update is ready for you in the Play and App Store. What do we have in store for you?
All the best: how to crush your goals.
New year and good intentions, it is a traditional combo. During the first 3 days of the year we see a lot more active users when compared to your average day of the year. But good intentions only stick around until Blue Monday. Let’s be honest: that’s not that long… Whatever running goals you set for yourself for in the new year, here are some tips to help you achieve them!

Reviews
Of course we believe the app is brilliant, but the question is who you should really believe: us or the runners?That’s why we let our users do the talking. Real stories from real runners.
I’ve been running for about 10 years now. Okay, I will nuance that immediately: with rather varying success.. It all started with a city run in Ghent, with guidance from my school. Afterwards I started to use plans that you find online.
My big problem: dosing my efforts (or curbing my enthousiasm)! I knew pretty quickly that running at a given heart rate was not my thing: it varies so much...
Check your activity maps in the app, take advantage of RPE, phase 2 and get goal summaries.
There’s yet another update available in both the Play and the App Store. One we’re very proud of. And with one feature added to free version and one to Peak Pro, we bring joy to all our users!
