Nike + Run Club for Apple Watch wins iPhone independence

Nike + Run Club now integrates with Apple Music and brings more news

If you are a user of the application Nike + Run Club You will be glad to know that for a few hours a update that comes with many important changes. The new version is v5.3.0 and it comes at a good time if we consider that the Apple Watch Nike + has not long ago reached the wrists of users who had patience and bought the sportiest model of the famous sports brand.

What is undoubtedly the most important of this update are some App improvements for Apple Watch They improve the performance of the watch when the device is not paired with the iPhone. According to Nike, they have improved GPS and route synchronization when training is started from the Apple Watch (which Runtastic learns, at least when we start from the iPhone…). On the other hand, when we start a training from the watch, the iPhone application will not start.

What's new in Nike + Run Club 5.3.0

General bug fixes for the App and performance improvements.

Bug fixes and improvements for Apple Watch users:

  • Endpoint information available in the Apple Watch race summary.
  • Improved GPS / route synchronization in races started on Apple Watch.
  • To offer fully independent functionality and save battery life, races started with the Apple Watch will no longer be started at the Nike + Run Club on the iPhone.

New function JUST DO IT. SUNDAY !:

  • Join a 5km run in the global community every Sunday.
  • Receive messages of encouragement from Kevin Hart during the race [English only].
  • Run 3 consecutive 5km races on Sunday to start a streak.
  • Get exclusive stickers to share them on your photos.

Since the sport I like the most is not jogging, Nike + Run Club is not an application that I have installed on my iPhone or Apple Watch. I prefer Strava, a sports application with a lot of social part and special stages, or Runtastic since, if I add the options of both applications, I can say that I have almost everything I want. But, as the saying goes, "courteous does not take away courage" and I have to admit that there are functions of the Nike application that I would like to see in which I usually use, such as that the workouts started from the watch do not also start the Iphone.

How about the latest Nike + Run Club update?
