## What is Mushometer?

Track your dog's miles and performance.  Export runs in GPS format for use in other applications.

Works best with iPhone using GPS but can be used to time runs and perform calculations based on the trail information entered manually on iPod Touch devices which do not support GPS.

Mushometer integrates with HealthKit to treat your runs as workouts if you choose to enable access.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

## Key features

- Track dog's miles and performance
- Export runs in GPS format
- Manual trail entry for non-GPS devices
- HealthKit integration
- Log runs as workouts

### 5/5 — Love it

*2024-09-23, version 7.1.0*

Very useful. More than I need for my small team but easy to use and provides useful info. It always gives me a boost to look at the season’s distance total!

### 5/5 — Great

*2022-09-15, version 7.1.0*

Very useful. Highly recommend.

### 4/5 — Great App! Just One suggestion

*2021-03-14, version 6.0.5*

I absolutely love this app for dogsledding bikjoring, or whatever.  But there should be an option for one dog in the lead or by itself.  There is, but it still shows another dog next to it.  Could you change that?   Thanks for reading.

### 1/5 — Review

*2020-05-31, version 6.0.5*

It used to work well, but now it’s totally crashed and never even starts recording well

### 5/5 — love it!

*2020-04-30, version 6.0.5*

never crashed on me. saves my runs. great map options. tracks accurately enough. im not a hardcore bikejorer but we do 10-15mi runs so for what i do its great. really satisfied overall!

### 2/5 — Used to love it :(

*2019-09-30, version 5.9*

This was such a great app but now it keeps crashing on me. My last several trips it stoped randomly and doesn’t save information. When it does work it’s awesome.  I use it when I take my horse out in my cart.  I love that it tracks our speed and maps our trip in our 3,300 acre preserve.  

When it worked I’d give this app a 10 out of 10, but now I’m sad to say I need to find a new app because this one has become unusable.

### 3/5 — Good

*2019-01-02, version 5.9*

It would be even better if it worked on the Apple Watch

### 3/5 — Unbedingt updaten, sonst unbrauchbar!

*2018-12-17, version 5.9*

Eigentlich mag ich die App sehr und nutze sie fast immer, da ich den Aufbau und die km/h Anzeige als sehr positiv empfinde. 
Leider ist mir die App bereits 3x abgestürzt, 1x im Training und nun am vergangenen Wochenende mitten in einer offiziellen Tour. Das passiert auch mit anderen Apps, startet man diese aber neu findet sich das GPS Signal und führt das Tracking fort. Nicht so hier, stürzt die App ab, sind die bis dahin gelaufenen KM einfach weg. Am Wochenende waren das 25,5km und 28km! Das ist so verdammt ärgerlich und damit ist die App für mich unbrauchbar! Leider!

### 5/5 — best app ever

*2017-09-20, version 5.6*

best app ever and just keeps getting better

### 4/5 — Great app for any musher!

*2015-06-09, version 3.3*

This app is a must have if you enjoy mushing with your dogs. Well worth the money. Aside from a few small technical issues (this version never displays your top speed correctly), this app is wonderful. Easily 5 stars once the minor bugs are worked out.
