The UI is clean and intuitive. Adding details like calories burned and elevation tracking would make it even been. Hopefully, these features will come in future updates. **Developer response:** Thanks for the review and great suggestions! ### 5/5 — this is the ONE. *2025-09-24* FINALLY. A minimalist running app with a simple interface. I'm so happy with this app. I run 5 days a week and I am able to look over my mileage for the day as well as the week with this helpful app. THANK YOU to whoever designed this app! ### 5/5 — Simply the best *2025-09-20* Finally!!! If you want to track your runs and distance without all the nonsense and extra charges, get this app! This app costs $2.99. That’s it! It is so simple and easy to use. No need for instruction. No monthly fees, No need to log in no No unnecessary features No one selling/sharing your data or analytics. ### 5/5 — So elegant *2025-08-23* So simple yet so elegant. Easy to use, love that developer cares about privacy. ### 5/5 — Fantastic simple running tracker *2025-06-27* Love the beauty of this minimalist running app. As a long distance runner myself I have tried multiple apps - but sometimes the principle of “less is more” holds true. Like this app - a simple yet elegant and helpful app for my training. ### 5/5 — My favorite running app *2025-06-13* I’ve tried several running apps but this is one is so simple and beautiful I stopped looking once I tried this one. ### 5/5 — Simply sleek *2025-04-18* It’s everything I need and everything I don’t. Simple but effectively practical. ### 5/5 — Simple and Minimal *2025-03-25* Just what you need to get started on your fitness journey. No account signup no ads nothing just Running 🏃 ### 5/5 — Superb! *2025-03-14, version 1.5.2* Great UI/UX! App is simple, clean, yet solid! I wish for an agenda/planner app made with this UI! Calendar + Reminders + Notes, please… Make it real! 😂🙏🏼 Congrats to the developer! Good product! 👍🏼 ### 5/5 — Simplicity at its finest *2025-03-08* This exactly the running app I’ve always wanted, no fluff, no unnecessary features, and access to all the running data I want to see. Perfect. ### 5/5 — Excellent all, beautifully designed. *2025-02-26* Track my runs, view my progress, without all of the fluff of other running apps crammed into the UI to justify an expensive subscription. Miles has nice widgets to let me track my progress in the week and keeps things simple. Tracking my running in this app is refreshing and easy and doesn’t make me feel like I’m failing for not min maxxing my cardiovascular performance on 3.4% inclines. Excellent app, beautifully designed. ### 5/5 — Simple *2025-01-30* I like the simplicity of this app! Tells you speed, distance, and even a basic map of the route you went. ### 5/5 — So good *2024-12-22, version 1.2.0* Perfect ### 5/5 — Everything you need, and nothing more. *2024-12-20* Simple but not basic. ### 5/5 — Nice, but *2024-12-15* Direct applewatch Support would be real nice! Thanks ### 5/5 — W app *2024-11-25* best running tracker with a small fee ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Completely inaccurate *2024-05-02, version 1.1.4* Ran a mile on a track and it tracked me running over 2. ### 1/5 — Did not work *2024-04-13* The app did not work at all. I swiped downward, just as I was told, and the only thing that started was the timer. I do not know if this is an issue only on my end and if I did something wrong, but I will not be using the app anymore. **Developer response:** Hey there, email me at milesv302@gmail.com and we’ll figure this out! If you have location enabled, the app will track your distance automatically. ### 3/5 — Could be slightly better for the pay *2026-05-19* I really wanted a simple running app, which is this. you just swipe and go, but it needs to have a few more features, I appreciate the ability to pause, but I also think there should be ability to change the time or some sort of auto stop because often I’ll forget and then it will say my pace is like 30 minutes a mile. One thing that made me actually write this review was because i was in the middle of my run and I had paused it and for some reason when I went back into the app, it had deleted everything I had done that day so I had a couple miles wasted and had to restart. ### 3/5 — Almost perfect *2025-06-07, version 1.5.4* I love the simplicity and data privacy. If only it measured ascent too! ### 3/5 — Wish there was more to it *2024-11-14* The interface is beautiful. The features are lacking. I’m not looking for much, but I do think auto-pause when you stop running at a light or to stretch is pretty critical. I suggested this months ago to the developer. Will update my review if the feature is ever added. A way to add notes to a run would be nice, too. ### 4/5 — Simple *2026-02-26* The App is nice and clean and works well. I know the whole point is it’s meant to be minimalist but I wish there was a mile ran yearly goal. ### 4/5 — Really like it but has problems *2024-04-30* At first it worked well but now I get bugs like the mile counter/ pace counter not working. I’ve also had entire runs not logged in once finished. Like I said I really like this app so it would be great if those problems were fixed. **Developer response:** Hey there, please try restarting your phone as the app relies on the GPS for that data and in my own experience I’ve found restarting my phone fixes GPS inaccuracy issues. If that doesn’t work please email me at miles@milesrunning.app and I’ll see if there’s anything else to try. ### 5/5 — Simplicity as a Feature *2026-07-16* I like simplicity and this application is an embodiment of it. It is the application I would build for myself. Job well done. ### 5/5 — Evil good 😈 *2026-06-06* Just did 6,66 km 😃 ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-06-01* I really like this developer. I used his Andante app all through grad school! Great design, simple, doesn’t collect a ton of data. I’d love to see a “send to Strava” feature, though I don’t know how hard that would be to integrate. Thanks for taking the time and having the skill to do this! ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simple *2026-05-02* No bells and whistles. Simple way to track my walks and runs! ### 5/5 — Cleanest running app *2026-04-17* As a picky frontend, this apps makes me so happy on how smooth it is. Yet, elevation gain would be a plus ### 5/5 — Top! *2026-04-04* A very fine tracking-app with minimalistic design. Start und Stop with siri commands should be very nice. ### 5/5 — Clean Ui, simple and accurate *2026-03-02* Wish there is a black dark theme option ### 5/5 — Simple but slick *2026-01-05* I love this app. It cuts the cr*p and just gives you what you need. Ace job!! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Do it! *2025-11-15* A super simple running app for minimalists, great for setting goals and seeing progress. It’s great! ### 5/5 — Incredibly clean and well built *2025-10-15* This is such a beautiful, minimal, functional run tracker app. Hats off to the developer! Truly a delight to use, and I hardly even run. **Developer response:** Thanks for the review! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
