User reviews

Doesn’t work

Paid 90p for the ability to change the target cadence and the bpm isn’t consistent at all so it’s completely useless for running

Great But...

I’ve gotten great use from the default 180 setting; however, the 190 (unlocked) tends to skip quite a bit. I’ve given the app 5 stars in anticipation of a patch. Thanks!
Edit:
Patch was never made, additionally, unlocked features vanished after reinstalling app.

Poor performance

Downloaded this app to use running. Very poor performance. Inconsistent rhythm. Very disappointed.

Verrouillage IPhone

Lors du verrouillage du téléphone la cadence diminue et m’as pas de suivi même avec l’achat de l’application. Doit laisser le téléphone sans verrouillage ce qui dure sur la batterie.

Wonky beat - cannot recommend

I set this up to run 170 bpm. The way I would describe the beat is “oblong” I’m running along at 170 and then the beat is out of pace with me so I adjust my pace and then the beat is once again out of step. Not sure what’s wrong with the software- pretty sure it’s not the runner.
