Does what I want it too. No problems with it

Not stable, poor features

Hangs frequently. Not intuitive. Why isnt follow the roads the default?

Not happy

I think this app is way too expensive for how it functions… It’s a good idea, but is poorly executed. I tried building paths online and then linking to my phone and it doesn’t always work. I would definitely take a refund for this.

Almost never starts the 1st time

I love how accurate this app is... when its working. The last few times Ive used it Ive had to start it, close the app, then re-open the app and start again. Usually. The last time I did this was at the start of a 5K. I noticed half way through the race that I wasnt hearing my pace which I have set to announce every .5 miles. So, I looked at the app (while trying to not slow down in the race) to find that it quit after 4 seconds. Not cool. I ended up having my best 5K time, with no help from this app. It would have been nice to have known my pace so I could have pushed myself harder.

Love this!!!

This app is what Ive been searching for. This app would be perfect IF IT HAD TURN BY TURN DIRECTIONS. That would be so helpful. Hope they figure it out soon!!! Loving this app!

Good To Plan Routes

Great to plan and save routes.

Worst app Ive ever purchased

I generally have pretty good luck with apps and was excited to find this one. I needed an app that would help me find local routes in the areas I travel to so I could maintain my running routine. Normally I stick with the free apps, but this one seemed worth the expense. Yesterday I finally had the opportunity to try it out and selected the only 11 mile route it had in the area I was staying. Ill take part of the blame for not taking a detailed look at the map, but it kind of defeats the purpose of paying for a service/app to find you a good (safe) route. I can tell you, I followed the route for the first 7 miles thinking each step was bringing me closer to a path or sidewalk. Unfortunately that wasnt the case and I had to stop my run and call for a ride when the app took me onto a major parkway. If you are going to charge someone for a service/app, you should at least have some sort of review process to ensure major highways/parkways arent being added to the mix. Completely disappointed and definitely will not be using again!

DO NOT BUY

This app is awful. I would ask for my money back if I can. Completely worthless, hardly shows any good routs and the tracking never works. Ive been searching for the right tracking app for my long distance runs, and just cant find one. Beyond disappointed.. :(

The key to my training!

Recently started training for my first half marathon, and this app has been invaluable for plotting my routes for my training schedule. And, I love to browse the articles. I just love this app. The only improvement I would make is to be able to save more than just the last 30 workouts, and to have an option to graph the workout trend, not just list them. But otherwise, I cant do without this app!

Runner

I bought this app today and finished a long run. When I was done, I tried to save my workout, but the app kept force closing. I restarted my phone twice, but it just keeps closing. I want a refund of my money. Dont waste your time or $ on this app.

Hate this !

I expect these type of apps to be intuitive and easy to use. This one is not! Once in a page it is hard to get back to the home page, does not show up local routes. It may all make sense in time but right now its driving me crazy and I expect more for $4.99... Come on people.. When you are out for a walk or run the last thing you need is to take an hour to set all this up.

Splits???

What happened to my mile splits....

Easy to use with great info

This app is definitely worth the 5. The training plans and routes are awesome.

Easy to use

LOve it and extremely easy to use. I generally map out the different route that Im taking so that I have an idea of how long it is and then can time myself based on how long it took. Do not use the app to track the route as I usually listen to a book on tape and find that both dont work at the same time.

Most accurate app Ive used, simple and a must for every runner needing accuracy!

Absolutely the best easiest to use app, used for 5 years and never wanted anything more. Love the interface, the pace coaching and the amazing customization it allows to keep me moving toward PR after PR. Used this app for every race and the accuracy is amazing compared to what my fellow runners are using

Rather Disappointed

After paying for the App, I was disappointed. The User Interface is so old fashioned and out of date. It didn’t work well at all. I couldn’t easily log a route and I found the “Coach’ing” Messages useless. Why when you’re running is there not a Voice Coaching you? It sends Messages which Beep all the time (Yes you can turn it off) but why would I be looking at my phones screen whilst running? It also defaults to Miles and Not KMS.
