Not working :(
This app doesn’t work, and hasn’t since I last tried for iOS11. It fails to sync my data and it’s display hasn’t been updated for larger phone screens.
I miss the app, when it worked. I used this app for years because it did such a good job of unobtrusively giving me a way of seeing where I’d been, but unfortunately it seems the app just doesn’t work any more. ☹️

Account set up fails
It won’t let me past the account set up.
Yay ! An update but...
Is it me or it saves less locations than the previous outdated application ? It looks like I got only some dots instead than a lot of dots :(. One other thing is we can’t reach the developers of this app ?
So what will happen to my years of movements ?...
I kinda want this to still exist
Own your data
Sync failures had me lose a month of data and recently seems a little bit abandoned.
Got the app after a Jerr Thorpe talk over a year ago and loved playing with my own data in R and Python but lately the app feels pretty abandoned. Maybe time to delete sadly.

A wonderful app in need of an update
I've been using openpaths for years as a way to track my movements and the service works very well, has a REST API with OAuth for accessing data etc, but the app is firmly stuck in the iOS5 era.
Not enough points
I might be more interested with at least ten times more data.
And too many sync failures.
Battery usage was not noticeably affected.

Unable to use
I actually can't tell you anything about the app since it would not let me sign-up or sign-in. I decided since that little thing would not work then the app as a whole would probably not be worth the effort and so I deleted it
Inaccurate tracking app, defeats the whole point.
So inaccurate it's absolutely useless. Never left my property today, but in the last 18 hours shows points as far as 4 miles away.
Great app but needs an update
I have been using this app for nearly two years to record my movements. The app runs quietly and economically in the background. The website is very easy to use to download a csv of my movements for use in other programmes and scripts. I have found it a very useful resource.
However I find it does crash a lot, almost every time I open it. Usually it is fine on reopening as long as it can sync the data back to the server. In situations where I don't have mobile data or wifi (e.g. abroad) this can be frustrating but it still seemed to record where I was.
Balancing preserving battery life against recording the GPS position as accurately as possible is always going to be tricky. I find it works best when I am on my bicycle (25-35km/h) and it records my position at regular and well-spaced intervals. Faster transportation like cars and trains are more hit and miss and the app tends to record highly clustered points at substantial intervals. Walking pace is also slightly erratic. If you want to ensure that a place is recorded then it's best to open up the app so it places a point.
