User reviews

Time waster

Not useful at all. No clear information on how to use the App. Drawing an accurate line with you finger over a phone screen map is near impossible and you have to know the direct way to go!

Great for distance running!

I use this app often for planning a lot of my runs. Very easy to measure distance

Response from developer

Thanks! Glad to hear it. What new features would you like to see added?

Great app

Love it

Very easy

Simple tool but saving you walks isn’t. Useful for when your pedometer is not accurate.

Response from developer

Thanks for downloading Farness and the nice review! Your walk will be saved if you tap Options > Save. You can recall it again later by tapping the Folder icon. I will look into making that more intuitive.

No stars

The interface of this app is poor. It's not clear what the user should do and there are no instructions. Bottom line, don't waste your money. I wish I hadn't.

Response from developer

Thanks for downloading Farness! Sorry you feel that way. There is instructional text that appears at the top when you tap the Pin or Draw buttons, such as "Drag your finger to draw a path."
