### 1/5 — Seems to me like this is a terrible app…

*2026-04-24*

Seems to be a terrible app never is correct… I’ll spend a whole day with my phone in my pocket and always says that I do zero steps

### 1/5 — Moves is so inaccurate!

*2026-02-08, version 1.1.4*

I installed this app over 10 years ago. I loved it at first. I now use my iPhone to track my steps, but still open it ever now and then, it’s really disappointing when you have done a 1 hour walk and it hasn’t registered anything or say you walked for 15 mins! 
I keep hoping it will rectify itself as I also like looking at the map to see my route. And it’s handy to look back and look at what time you left a place. Doesnt work for me anymore 🤷‍♀️

### 1/5 — 前は良かったのに

*2026-01-11*

久しぶりにアプリ入れて見たら買い物とか出掛けてるのに家に居たままになってる。

### 4/5 — used to love this

*2025-09-29, version 1.1.4*

the map is really just fiur points in my walk rather than the map be like it was and show my actual route ??

### 5/5 — 二年前的版本比較好用

*2025-03-22, version 1.1.4*

希望能改回原來的樣子

### 1/5 — Funciona muy bien

*2025-03-14, version 1.1.4*

Funciona muy bien, sorprendido estoy, ya que la bajé la compré y No funcionaba, ayer la volví a instalar y le puse lo que pide para que funcione correctamente, que esté en localización permanentemente, y me ha sorprendido gratamente, porque tienes el historial de por donde has ido a todas partes y a todas las horas!!!

Cambio de opinión, vuelve a No funcionar, necesita una revisión por parte del desarrollador, que hace más de 5 años que No la actualiza, y de hay le viene el problema!!
Una verdadera PENA!!

### 5/5 — محافظة ديالى قضاء الخالص /العراق

*2024-10-20, version 1.1.4*

العراق /محافظة ديالى/قضاء الخالص

### 1/5 — Needs work

*2024-09-21, version 1.1.4*

Very Poor. No way of editing incorrect locations nor modes of travel.
No maps. Will cancel annual fee if not corrected before 3 month trial rmds

### 1/5 — Бесполезная

*2024-07-14*

Дизайн скопирован со старого легендарного Moves. Функционал же почти отсутствует. Только карту еле-еле рисует. Даже нельзя изменить неправильно определённый вид активности. Время/расстояние/скорость от балды. Ещё и переведено непойми как. Хорошо не успел купить «отключение рекламы»

### 1/5 — 何かおかしい

*2024-04-25*

トラッキングは5分に1回、歩数は約4割しかカウントされない。OSとの間に何か不整合が発生しているとしか思えない。
広告非表示も購入したので頑張って欲しい。
