Like it but…

I really like how simple this app is. Straight and to the point. But for some reason it doesn’t write to Apple Health properly, dropping all mileage before the decimal. So if I ruck 1.5 miles, it only writes .5 to Health. A bummer since I use Health as a focal point for so much health and fitness tracking.

Does what I got it for…

I got this app to record my rucks into Apple Health which it does well. The rest of the app doesn’t seem to work as it should. Data is slow to upload and there a lot of missing or incomplete data points. The RuckLoad doesn’t seem to work at all

Glitches with Apple Ultra 4

Love the app. Ran fine on my Ultra 3. However, when I rucked for the first time with my Ultra 4, it stopped and locked up my watch. Had to do a hard restart to regain watch control. Bummer.
