If the added more features I would not need other apps. Also asking me if I have stopped when I haven’t is really annoying. ### 4/5 — Needs more Canadian charities *2026-08-17, version 9.2.0* I use this app all the time. I wish it had more Canadian charities on it. ### 3/5 — Love the app- stop asking *2026-05-15, version 9.2.0* I really do enjoy the app. But you don’t need to ask me every single time I get done using the app which is every single day but thank you for all you do and all you support ### 2/5 — confused *2025-12-25, version 9.1.1* l don’t know how to work it, its confusing and its not tracking my walking and you can’t leave the app while walking ### 5/5 — Good *2025-11-02, version 9.1.0* Key club gives me service hours for this ### 5/5 — Walking app *2025-10-05, version 9.0.2* I gave used this Charity Miles app for several years. It is great to walk and my walk donated to a chart choose. ### 5/5 — Nothing like any other app *2025-10-02, version 9.0.2* Whoever made this app is making a real difference for the world. I run very often so having such a powerful motivation to do this activity means a lot. The miles are a bit inaccurate but every bit makes a difference. If you want a sign to start running or giving to charity, this is it!!! ### 3/5 — It’s okay not great *2025-09-26, version 9.0.2* You have to open the app daily to get it to record your progress and even then it doesn’t always register your progress. I have had streaks of hundreds of days broken because of this. ### 4/5 — Great app ٫ needs better step accuracy *2025-09-18, version 9.0.2* I love helping charities since I have a fixed income and getting healthier ٫ but the steps are too low on a stationary bike compared to walking . ### 5/5 — Walking for a Cause *2025-09-08, version 9.0.2* What could be better than getting exercise and giving to a charity at the same time. Thank you, Charity Miles! ### 4/5 — steps *2025-08-17, version 9.0.2* i wish it would sync with my phone /fit bit. I log 10-20k a day but don’t always have my phone with me . ### 5/5 — My go to measure of my progress toward good health *2025-07-08, version 9.0.1* For several years I have depended on the Charity Miles for feedback on distance per workout and over periods of time. I also value my miles bringing dedicated funds to my chosen charity. ### 3/5 — Disappointed that I can’t see how much I’ve raised *2025-06-09, version 8.9.2* I really like this app. Yes, sometimes the mile tracking is off, but I haven’t run into that being too much of a problem, and I walk enough that if one walk isn’t recorded, so what? I do wish I could see how much I’ve raised though. The first photo on this apps page shows someone looking at how much they’ve raised on the app, but it seems like they’ve gotten rid of that feature. Without seeing how much I’m raising, I wonder if the money the app is making from the ads being run while I use it is even going to charity. It feels sketchy and being able to see how much you’ve raised would be a lot more motivating. I feel like this is an easy fix that would draw in a lot of people, and the fact that they had that option and took it away is odd to me. ### 2/5 — Very inaccurate *2025-05-31, version 8.9.2* This app's speed and distance tracking are astonishingly inaccurate. When a bargain bin smartwatch can tell I walked 2mi at 2.5mph, but Charity Miles says I only walked 0.10mi at 0.13mph...yeah. This is a great concept, but until the app is properly calibrated, there are much better ways to use your energy and effort for charity. ### 4/5 — App issues *2025-05-29, version 8.9.2* Please fix app so it stops assuming I am finished when I am still walking. Means I have to stop multiple times to report I haven’t finished my walk. Thanks! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not working *2026-08-31, version 9.2.2* I walk 4 miles in a little over an hour and Charity Miles says I walked 1/10 of a mile - frustrating !! ### 1/5 — Help! *2026-06-14, version 9.2.0* It’s asking for a code when I hit the briefcase icon at the bottom of the page. What code? ### 1/5 — Not logging the miles *2026-06-01, version 9.2.0* The last three times I have run, with the app on during the run, it has not logged most of the miles I have run. ### 1/5 — None *2025-09-22, version 9.0.2* Unable to download without payment ### 1/5 — inaccurate distancing *2025-08-14, version 9.0.2* off by a lot!! used to be very accurate. disappointing! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-05-02, version 8.9.2* I walk 11973 steps and the app registers.less than a mile. This has been going on for the last year. I have tried everything suggested and still doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Inaccurate *2025-02-19, version 8.9.2* This tracker is not accurate. It’s only tracking about 0.10 of what I’m actually doing. ### 1/5 — UI not great *2024-11-09, version 8.8.1* User interface unfortunately not intuitive. App also constantly fails to track my distance, even though it can sync with my steps from my Health/Fitness apps. I was so pumped about contributing for a great cause but have been so turned off by the user experience. ### 1/5 — Super awful app *2024-08-04, version 8.7.3* This app seems like it was purchased from Temu or the QA team was hired from Craigslist. I was in 33 miles and suddenly it drops down to 23 miles that is super stupid app. Please fire your QA team and developers . ### 1/5 — No measure of contributions. *2024-07-22, version 8.7.3* I’d really like it if we got any kind of information about the donations we earned for our charities with our miles. It makes it feel very sketchy and I’m not convinced this is a real thing. It has high ratings but… 🤷‍♀️Deleting with hope this changes in the future, I’ll check in. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good apps *2026-08-01, version 9.2.0* Good running apps for charity 🌞 ### 5/5 — Amen! *2026-07-23, version 9.2.0* It’s a good experience because at the end of the day you’re doing a good action for others! ### 5/5 — Great APP *2026-07-18, version 9.2.0* I had to stop running but now walk 20+ miles a week, this APP allows me to contribute to some great causes doing what I was going to do anyway.

I had my phone strapped to my lower leg while riding my exercise bike. The bike said I did 9.29 miles, the app said .4. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
