Fun app, greedy pricing

$10/year repeating subscription to unlock the same features you get in other apps for a single payment of $1-5? That seems steep to me, maybe they should make their unique value proposition or functionality more clear.

Free version combines ads at the bottom with an annoying interstitial page after activity completion which forces you to sit on an "Upgrade to PRO" page while a timer counts down.

I like the company and want to support them, but it feels like I'm being taken advantage of.

Unfair business policy toward ipod Touch Users.!!!

I was thrilled to finally find a GPS Running app that services iPod Touch users. However I would have to pay while iPhone users do not. I guess I will delete this app and move on to other apps. I like to test an app before buying, but cannot. Very Poor business practice.

Keeps not showing map after your done I want to rate this app 5 stars but this is a big thing to help your growth got to have map it you upgrade to pro

Disappointing

You have to pay to hear the distance tracker coach. Unheard of in other apps. They call it weight lifting not resistance training!!! There are apps out there that will show correct posture for resistance training, this one doesn't. Don't waste your time on it!!'

Brilliant it keeps me going.......

Best Exercise App!

Very simple to use, comprehensive catalog of exercises to choose from, option to measure by time or by each individual exercise, extremely accurate GPS, fun, motivational, can play your music while tracking your activity, audio cues, stats, networking/social component. No kinks that need to be fixed such as with Fitocracy (Fitocracy is great too but more difficult to figure out and freezes/crashes a lot. But social networking aspect of Fitocracy is better/more developed/focused on virtual community). What I like the most is that aside from being simple, it's fun, it makes you realize how much you do (or don't do), you can work to improve and know where and how to improve bc of great data, and, most importantly, the focus isn't on weight loss or calories burned, it's just about finding fun ways to be active, stay active, and prove to yourself and others that those feats are possible to accomplish in many different ways despite your activity level. I have severe lupus but can find so many tolerable and safe ways to be active and get stronger on here. There's something for everyone and its not at all frustrating or too complicated/difficult. It's not intimidating at all. It's fun and enlightening and empowering! The full cost/membership version is TOTALLY worth it, by the way, this coming from someone rather low on $$$$. Happy Skimbling! I'd recommend this to anyone and everyone. Regardless of your goals it is just plain fun!

I really like it

Only thing to add in the free version, would be elevation changes.

Fun and easy to use!

I have only used it a few times but so far it's great. You just pick the exercise and press start. For running its awesome. It tracks pace, distance and shows a GPS shot of your route. It's free so I'd definitely say its worth a shot.

Nice app

Like the map & stats functions. Inspires me to track everything I do.
