I have a trail that gains 1100 feet in a mile and 1/2 and it says I burned 81 calories. Why can't I find an app that factors in elevation in its stats?? ### 4/5 — Great detail *2012-08-01* A great program that provides good stats! The only thing I would suggest/like is a suggested running program for different level runners - like the previous iRun app I had... ### 4/5 — 1st Half marathon training *2011-11-29, version 3.1* Great app! And, it's free!! ### 3/5 — Needs touching up *2011-04-11, version 3.0.1* Its good being free but the Ads do get in the way of the calorie counter if you have all values showing. Also it's not retina display, so road names are fuzzy on the map ### 3/5 — Nice, but has bugs *2011-04-03, version 3.0.1* Nice app for running, especially for the price (free). It doesn't connect to the 1-2 site to get running routs, it just displays a blank screen. ### 5/5 — For free??? *2011-04-02, version 3.0.1* This app is awesome and it's free! I just love Apple for that! ### 5/5 — Solid running app *2011-04-02, version 3.0.1* I like the calorie calculation and speed measurements to be really precise. This app delivers and it's easy to use. My choice so far! ### 5/5 — Awesome !! *2011-03-22, version 3.0.1* Awesome apps ! No crash while running and listen to music no problem !!! Very good apps !! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Free is not free *2020-09-17, version 5.0* Card was charged $10.00... be sure to read before clicking!!!! ### 1/5 — No longer reliable *2015-03-16, version 4.0.1* I used to be able to rely ion this app. But recently, part way through a ling walk, somewhere after 3 or 5 miles, it jumps to 6 or 8 miles, or something else totally inaccurate. Can no longer depend on it. ### 1/5 — Shuts off before my run is done *2014-07-07, version 4.0.1* I have only used this twice but both times it shut itself off after about .8 Miles. Very frustrating that I lost my data. Not sure I want to try a third time or look for a better app. ### 1/5 — GPS problems *2013-08-05, version 4.0.1* The GPS is way off on this app. I know for a fact the route I ran was only 2.5 miles, yet it said I went 5 miles. I checked the map of the route and it showed some wild spikes in my route. Maybe the paid version is better but at 10 bucks it is not worth the risk. ### 1/5 — Good then bad *2013-06-20, version 4.0.1* App worked great at first but now crashes frequently and randomly opens other programs ### 1/5 — GPS fail. *2013-03-12, version 4.0* iPhone 4S. The GPS puts me about a half a mile away from where I acutually am. The app also fluctuates my running speed from as low as 3 mph all the way up to 44 mph. I knew I was a fast runner but I think I may have set a new world record. Restarted phone- same results.Reinstalled app- same results. Checked other GPS oriented apps all put me within 3 meters of my location. Deleted app. I do not reccommend. ### 1/5 — Don't bother *2011-03-26, version 3.0.1* Utter garbage. Downloaded, installed, uninstalled, reinstalled several times but GPS never worked. Shame-- looks like it would be nice if GPS worked. ### 2/5 — Just ok *2013-07-06, version 4.0.1* I found the pace to be really inaccurate. Might have just been a weak GPS signal but I like map my run much better. ### 2/5 — It stops in the middle of a run *2011-07-28, version 3.0.1* I've used it for about 10 runs. Great for 7. But 3 times it just stopped. So the app was still on but the time and distance stayed put as i ran 2-3 more miles. Plenty of battery left. Didn't hit 'stop'. I'm moving on to a different app. ### 3/5 — Cool *2014-02-07, version 4.0.1* I like to run so i bought the app ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love the app. Where’s the update?? *2023-01-19, version 5.0* Hey, I use this on a daily basis and out of all the apps I’ve tried, this one is the most user friendly, simple, and effective. I notice about 7 years ago was the last update and the update then said to standby for the next update. It’s been 7 years now so where’s the update already??? It needs a few more features and options. Great app so far! ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-11-17, version 5.0* Used for 1st time this afternoon, worked great very pleased as been after something like this for a while that’s so simple and accurate 👍 ### 5/5 — i.Run app *2020-09-14, version 5.0* I highly recommend the i.Run app for its ease of use and functionality. Perfect for the professional athlete as well as the weekend warrior. ### 5/5 — great app!!! *2014-12-14, version 4.0.1* I love using this app to track my runs! it is so useful and has never let me down. the only thing that could be better is if it told me how far I had already run on the split screen. I recommend using this app if you run a lot! ### 5/5 — Good app *2013-06-27, version 4.0.1* So much fun !!!! ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2012-05-12, version 3.1* I have been using this app for a while now and I love it!! Easy to use and find out how my run was. Love how they are stored in 'all your tracks' so I can easily compare. Highly recommend ### 5/5 — Great app *2012-03-27, version 3.1* Great app. My wife just started training for a triathlon and paid for a bunch for some apps. This free app is much better and now she uses it instead. ### 5/5 — GREAT APP *2012-03-21, version 3.1* I downloaded this app a week ago and have used it every day. IT REALLY IS FANTASTIC and I actually look forward to my walks now (not running at the mo due to injury). It gives you your distance, speed, calories burnt, what more could you want :-) As well as a map and a log of your walks/runs. STRONGLY recommended for anyone wanting to monitor their distances and calories. One quick comment: (as recommended in the help menu), try to keep the "all values" screen open rather than the map as it really drains your battery otherwise. I love the start/stop/pause feature to. SUPERB, thank you for providing it as a free app too. ### 5/5 — THE BEST *2011-12-14, version 3.1* Simply the BEST app I have ever used. I am ecstatic at how simple it is to use. I highly recommend it. Thank you for making it. I LOVE IT. ### 5/5 — Whats hot *2011-04-02, version 3.0.1* I saw the app as Apples Whats hot pick and got it free. I run like 3 times a week and so far it did not let me down. But only 5 runs so far. I will update as soon as I know more. Facebook posting is fun as friends can see your GPS trail! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
