It seems to be meant for someone to digitally watch their partner complete the race? I got lost repeatedly because the app won’t track your location relative to the map, nor will it accurately track the runners information. There were multiple times when I showed up in a location to cheer my partner on only for the app to suddenly say he was in a completely different location. The app could also benefit from being able to click on the spectator locations (presumably that’s what the dots are for? There also no key or explanation for anything on the map) and it take you to maps directions. Additionally, the map will not stay in the same place. If you zoom out to see where your runner is in the grand scheme, it zooms in so you can’t use it as a navigational tool. Altogether. Waste of an app download and waste of 3 hours. ### 2/5 — Dr JPMoore *2019-04-13, version 1.0.1* 3 hrs after race is over NO RESULTS!! ### 3/5 — Good start. Needs more data. *2019-04-13, version 1.0.1* Following racers is helpful and works well but being able to compare times among age groups, gender, etc. would be nice. Finish times and placement varied from the actual results for nearly everyone in the group of runners I polled so take the results with a grain of salt. ### 5/5 — Loves the new App *2019-04-22, version 1.0.1* This year’s app was amazing. All the information I needed right at my fingertips. My family was able to track me through the race. The selfie filters were super fun. Thank you for your continuous improvements. ### 5/5 — Best BRM app yet *2019-04-13, version 1.0.1* This years app is amazing. I wasn’t able to run this year, but with the live tracking I was able to see all my friends running hard up and down all those mountains and see them cross the finish line!!!! ### 5/5 — Great app *2019-04-13, version 1.0.1* Love the live tracking!!!! Pretty spot on! ### 5/5 — One of the better race apps *2019-04-13, version 1.0.1* Super helpful following our runners and providing estimates for their finish line arrival. Loved getting message updates as they hit certain markers. 5 stars - especially compared to some of the other race apps! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
