Is this just me?

A really good start
Firstly let me just say that I love this app. I have been training for five years and love how I now have a tool to train in new environments and mix things up. I think that this is a great start to a product that will become a common name in the parkour world and be used by pros and beginners alike. There are not only spots and pictures of training locations, but challenges and moves to learn (which is such a good idea) in addition to being able to post training clips. That being said, I am hoping that some things could be improved to make URBN jumpers a bit more user-friendly and personal. For example, an update on the location service would be really great, as often I am not able to use my current location for spots when out training. Also the UI of the app can be a bit difficult with zooming in and out of the google map, and tapping on spots is sometimes difficult when they are grouped into the blue bubbles. I would love to see a description feature when creating a new spots and maybe even a hotel or air bnb finder so athletes on the go can look up places to stay. I am thankful to have such an innovative and interesting app, and hope to see some changes that will make a phenomenal tool even better.

Amazing!
Really nice app for parkour, helps you find spots near you! It is really well made.
Better Than Instagram for Parkour
I love this app!
First, Video upload quality:
Pros- 60fps, and looks above 480p
Cons- no 1080p quality videos, quality looks fuzzy but doesn’t break the enjoyment of watching them.
Second, uses a map feature to find spots that other users around the world have shared, starting with your immediate area when GPS tracking is enabled.
Third, it is like an extreme-lite version of Instagram. Because the community is still small, you are given two tabs to explore with: URBN World or people you’re Following.
In this explore tab, you will find what activities have happened, from video posts to spots shared. It also has a Jam feature which is just a parkour meetup happening at a specific spot.
Lastly, the thing that gripes me is how laggy and buggy the app is, but I have hopes it will be fixed as the app grows. I can’t wait to try the Premium stuff (it is disabled for me as of this review)

Amazing app
A must app if you do parkour! It’s really well made!
Videos won’t load
First of all this app is awesome and a cool way to track your parkour progress and spots. However there are a few changes that should be made; first, make the videos load. I don’t know why but my videos from my iPhone do not load or post they just say “media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed, or the format is not supported” So I can’t post any clips. Second, make it so the orange pinpoints appear all the time not the blue circles with numbers, it makes them easier to find even though it can look crowded from a distance. Overall great app.

Perfect!
I’ve always needed an app like this to document my progress in parkour (including the spots!) In the earlier versions of the app, it was more about the spots, but now it’s much more. It’s like a social media app for freerunners and it’s awesome.
PERFECT😍😍
