  • So Much Potential

    This app has so much potential, but it needs some work. It does not allow editing of entries, so if you make a mistake entering your steps or distance you are stuck with it. Also, the map doesn’t show where you are at in the course, so it isn’t very motivating. This has the potential to be a 5 star app, but it needs a little work.

  • Confusing

    For an app that is about counting steps, this requires too many steps to use. My attempt to bank, spend and add steps resulted in steps being counted twice. Something like this should be highly intuitive to use. I don’t want to mess with multiple clicks just to see how far I’ve gotten along a virtual route. Second star is only for the nice selection of routes.

  • Love

    For someone who doesn’t have a lot of money to travel, this is perfect. It enables me to see places (virtually) that I otherwise wouldn’t see. The only thing I would like to see improved is adding other modes of travel since I don’t walk a lot so it takes me FOREVER to get through a walk. Other than that i love this app.

  • Love the idea

    I like how you can view trails or other cities. I just wish you could get notifications that you reach the next landmark or know how many steps to add to get to the next landmark.

    The hassle of sliding until you get to the landmark is a hassle especially if the app crashes.
  • Great idea, app doesn’t work though

    So sad, because this is such a cool idea. The maps don’t update when you add your steps though, which pretty much defeats the purpose.
  • Great app - map updates at intersections

    I really loving this app! Great tracking, lots of fun walks from a quick walk around the city to literally the whole world. I’m motivated and have some friends who wanted to join up too.

    It looked like my map was stuck at one point. Per the developer, the map doesn’t have every point linked; it has checkpoints at intersections so if you’re on a long straight path it might not change until you hit the end of it. Once I logged enough steps the map the view jumped to show my progress.

  • It used to be a 5 star but

    I'm "stuck" on a certain point on the map of the Route 66 walk. I emailed support about this two weeks ago and got a response about Google Street View, which really has nothing to do with my problem. I've emailed them again and am waiting to see what the answer is this time. When I hear back, I'll change my review to either 5 stars, or 1. It's now in the app creators hands.

  • No garmin option

    Doesn’t work with garmin.
  • Fun game and Very responsive customer service

    The game is a fun little way for an online group to discover the world together. In our group we hit a bit of a snag when an admin was having log in problems. Duncan from World Walking was very responsive and helped us fix our problem.
  • Glitchy

    Downloaded the app yesterday and created a team. Love the concept and the format. This morning, however, I cannot open the app. It automatically redirects to Facebook. I am unable to use the app at all right now. Please fix!
