### 5/5 — Enjoyed the app

*2026-08-20, version 2.3.2*

Such a fun act, I am a little concerned that it double counts my mileage because of my garmin but still fun.

### 5/5 — This will motivate you

*2026-08-19, version 2.3.2*

I never do app reviews and I’ve struggled a long time in losing weight. Doing this with friends has been so much fun and has made be a walker.

### 5/5 — Very motivating for Lord of the Rings lovers!

*2026-08-08, version 2.3.2*

Loved checking my progress every day, but really wish once you end the quest there was an option to reset to the beginning

### 3/5 — Платное приложение

*2026-08-08*

Бесплатно только 1,5 км в день

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2026-08-05, version 2.3.2*

Charming little app with beautiful artwork for Tolkien fans who want to race Frodo to Mount Doom.

### 5/5 — Favorite walking app

*2026-08-04, version 2.3.2*

Love this app, huge lotr fan and it motivates me to walk more and more each day. I should reach mount “fire” in about 10 months!!

### 1/5 — Innaccurate and burdensome

*2026-08-03, version 2.3.2*

Its an amazing app and would be alot of fun if it were accurate but im getting sick of walking 14,000 steps and it telling me i walked 2 miles because the only app that it pulls data from is apple health which is complete garbage and for some reason doesnt track distance correctly.

This defeats the whole purpose of the app.

Wish they would allow you to tether zepp app or fitbit app

### 5/5 — Fun and motivational!

*2026-07-31, version 2.3.2*

I really enjoy fantasy books like lord of the rings, so this app was a nice way to bring me closer to the books and also motivate me to walk more

### 5/5 — Give me more!

*2026-07-30, version 2.3.2*

This was the best experience! I loved using this app and I dreaded finishing my quest. I wish there was an option to extend it to go “there and back again” so I could keep going and return to the shire!!!

### 5/5 — Finally made it

*2026-07-23, version 2.3.2*

Took me 3 years but I officially made it! I would love to be able to walk back to the shire!
