User reviews

Not good

I walked fast fore more than an hour in the app registered barely 35 minutes. This is a bad application.

Seven days a week

I’m a healthy and fairly active 81 year old woman, but I noticed that my weekly step count is very uneven, peaking with Parkrun ( at walking speed) on Saturdays but very little on some other days
I took on the 10 minute challenge a week ago and the first week saw me achieving at least one 10 minute brisk walk EVERY day- I’ll try to keep that up as the weather gets colder!

Walking plans

Not a happy boy. I had registered on the 7 week walking plan. I had nearly completed week 3/7 when I started with a chest infection so I had to curtail my walking temporarily. I paused my walking plan on the App. When I return to restart the walking plan it’s disappeared altogether- can’t find it anywhere. If you are going to remove these plans without giving notice then there is no point registering on this App. Really poor!!

Brilliant

Really helps me track brisk walking out and about and on the treadmill. I’ve increased gradually and now at an hour a day.

Active 10

It’s easy to use and motivational.
