Hang & crashed!
This app hang up and often crashed at almost every launched. Already tried to re-install but the problem persist. Tracking even worse. Need to learn from sport tracking app, they're mostly far better (some of them even great!) than this supposed to be real tracking app.
Great concept, annoying and puzzling results
I live the idea, but the resulting data is of such poor quality that it's useless. The app places me 1 - 3 miles from my true location in ~80% of points logged. Also, interval between data capture is variable and appears arbitrary. Cool idea but to crude to be of much use.
Nice in principle, but doesn't work
Lots of phantom sightings in places I've not been. And it's not even that I've forgotten.
Crowd mapping, if that's what you're into.
If you want to track a specific path, you and I will need to look elsewhere. The screen hides typical iPhone info bar at the top (see screenshots). Power consumption when I engaged the app was noticeably faster, to the point that my charger was ineffective: in twenty minutes it had only increased two percent. Accuracy aside (they do not promise it) it seems inconsistent in the way it records: starts off leaving markers in regular intervals, then randomly stops leaving gaps which is why it's not good for paths.

YAY
Glad its on my phone now where it seems to make better sense.
Thank you =)
Thank you =)
Inaccurate to the point of worthlessness
Although the creator's TED talk is certainly inspiring and this application's UI is well-composed, the utilization of iOS's location APIs is poor at best. Overnight, with four bars and a view of the southern sky, the app will place me anywhere in a three-four mile radius—meaning that since work is three miles away, I have absolutely no valid data. Over 24 hours, I'm placed in 30 locations despite never leaving my apartment.
I honestly wanted to use this app, and while it has so much going for it: decent UI, good service integration, amazingly interesting concept— the core function of logging my location simply DOES NOT produce reliable data.
I refer you to xkcd's "tornadoguard" comic.

Works well
Not sure why I do it, but it works well and shows where I have been in a very general sense(not accurate background recording, but this would be to save battery i guess). My location must move a lot because of my phone switching towers even when i am at home, which I assume is an issue with how the iPhone determines the location. It would be nice if it could filter this out some how

Disappointing
This app is a good idea but has many flaws. It almost always crashes on start up, sometimes has large blank patches of missing data, often documents my location as somewhere I haven't been and struggles to load up if you press the 'all' tab. On top of that, very few practices are requesting the information. Perhaps not enough researchers know about it as a resource or perhaps they know about the flaws.

So close!
Brilliant and innovative concept carried out with less than desirable seriousness. Crashes so often it's of little use. I'd like to see this improved upon! Could be something great with a lot of work.
Performs as advertised
Not a dazzling work of art but it is utilitarian. My installation has been stable and smooth. It provides interesting information.
