Disappointing
Disheartened for first marathon
Sadly, the app completely failed during my first marathon. Despite location permissions being set to “Always” and Background App Refresh being enabled, it repeatedly displayed “Location Permission Required” and became stuck. My distance remained at 0 km, so none of my prerecorded cheers played and my family and friends couldn’t track me.
I’d also tried to test the app beforehand, but it wouldn’t allow another run while the marathon was scheduled. Incredibly disappointing to realise 30 seconds into such a special, once-in-a-lifetime event that the app wasn’t going to work.

Needs updating
They really need to modify it so that your loved ones can send you messages before you start racing not only while you’re running. My friends aren’t going to wake up at 7:30am to send me messages.
Response from developer
We just released the Scheduled Race Update! The latest version now lets get cheers before race day!
Support
Support email doesn’t work. No idea how features work. If I don’t hear back, will appeal to Apple for a refund.
Amazing cheering app!
I absolutely love this app. It has helped me get through some of my hardest runs just from being able to hear my family and friends voices cheer me on. It would be good to go back to a slightly longer audio message option though as 10 seconds is a bit too short. The main thing I would like changed is when multiple people send a cheer at the same time, they will play simultaneously rather than one after the other and you can’t hear it. Other than that, love it.
