Used to be a lot better
Developers got greedy, hardly does anything now
App Broken. Doesn’t recognize subscription
Proceed cautiously.. app doesn’t recognize premium purchase. May have just wasted $6
Last update broke the app
Lost sounds, it doesn’t announce anything compile quiet. Very unfortunate
Already fixed, great app

Want to love but a bit glitchy
Love the idea of this app! And with a few improvements, it could be perfect. For one, as other users have stated, it often creates and narrates unnecessary turns in the middle of the run. I will be on a straight section and it will say “turn right, turn left” to keep me going straight. Two, no matter how many times I select the option to only announce turns on my phones, the app will announce from my phone to my headphones AND watch app will announce for everyone nearby to hear. It’s incredibly annoying. Three, because of all the unnecessary audio cues, I often have to pull out my phone to check the map. It would be so much easier if one of the options on the watch app was a map zoomed in on my current location on the run. Four, I wish I could select how many announcements I want for turns. Sometimes it’s just one per turn, sometimes it feels like 3-4. It’s very disruptive. And last but certainly not least (maybe the most annoying glitch!), sometimes I need to pause my run to look at the map. Whether I pause from my watch or phone app, it will immediately “resume” on its own. So I’ll pause it again, then it will restart immediately, and on and on. I hate the impact that has on my mileage times since the app is tracking my pace / mileage. If you’re someone who likes to stop and stretch or stop and walk, this glitch might be a deal breaker.
For the pros, it’s really easy to create and share new routes. I can also make them private which is great so strangers don’t know my routes. You can create routes using roads, trails, paths, etc. - anything that would show up on a map. If your trail run has a lot of turns, it gets pretty annoying with the constant interruptions but it’s better than having to carry my phone and check the map all the time.
Honestly if they can fix the issues above, this will be my favorite running app. And until then, I’m still going to use it because I like to run different routes without having to stare at my phone the whole time and I have yet to find another app that does everything I want.

Temperamental
Paid for a yearly subscription - but wouldn’t recommend overall. The APP occasionally stops providing you voice instructions during your run which seems to be a recent issue within the last 2 weeks. This results in having to keep your phone unlocked for the duration the run for the app to function properly which just drains the battery, and is also a safety issue if someone steals an unlocked phone. Can’t see me renewing yearly subscription which is ashame as the idea behind the app is nice.
