### 3/5 — Massive price increase

*2026-10-03, version 12.1.56*

Used to love this app.  Used it all the time, but just recently received my renewal notice and they are raising the price from $9.99 a month to $14.99 a month…. That is a 50% increase.  They claim it is to support new features but this app has been pretty steady for the past few years.  They are not really adding any massive new features to justify a 50% increase in membership fees…

### 3/5 — 広告大きすぎ

*2026-09-17*

最近、広告の表示の面積が大きくなって使いにくくなった

**Developer response:** フィードバックをお寄せいただき、ありがとうございます。

### 3/5 — Lack of colour on Apple Watch

*2026-05-16*

Generally really like Runmeter but I’m not liking the most recent update on the Apple Watch. Not having colours to distinguish between run time/distance and then having in pace and average pace greyed out is frustrating and difficult to read

**Developer response:** The colors previously shown on the Apple Watch are still available in the latest release. You can restore them by turning off More > Apple Watch > Zone Colors > Statistics in the iPhone app. If you need more help with this, please contact support@abvio.com.

### 5/5 — The Anchor of My Marathon Training

*2026-04-28, version 12.1.49*

It is exactly twelve years since I started using RM to record 20,000+ running miles and many additional miles on my bike. I love its interface, data and ability to share data with other programs, notably Strava. It is a joy to compare my training and race evolution over time. For better or worse, I barely take a training step without RM.

### 5/5 — Love it.

*2026-04-25, version 12.1.49*

Great value. This app is a Godsend.

### 5/5 — これ以外には考えられないが知名度が低い

*2026-04-18*

何年も使用している。他のメジャーなアプリもいくつも使用したが、結局このアプリに落ち着く。残念なのは知名度が低いこと。間違いなく良いアプリなので是非是非お試しあれ！

**Developer response:** 長年にわたりご愛用いただき、誠にありがとうございます。温かいお言葉をいただき、心より感謝申し上げます。他社のアプリもお試しいただいた上で、なおも当アプリを選び続けてくださっていること、大変嬉しく思います。また、アプリの「見つけやすさ」に関するフィードバックもありがとうございます。より多くの方々に知っていただけるよう、現在改善に取り組んでおります。もし当アプリを気に入っていただけましたら、ぜひ星5つの評価をご検討いただけますと幸いです。

### 5/5 — Utilisation très régulière

*2026-03-29*

J’utilise cette appli depuis très longtemps (10ans je pense). Plusieurs fois par semaine. Résultats justes, localisation correcte, fonctionne très bien même à l’étranger. Je recommande celle ci.

**Developer response:** Merci d'être un utilisateur de longue date de notre application. Nous apprécions votre recommandation !

### 5/5 — Been using for over 15 yrs

*2026-02-24, version 12.1.48*

Have tried a few apps over the years but always come back to Runmeter. Fully customisable can upload to Strava, it will announce your run through your eat buds as you go. I purchased a blue tooth chest strap for heart rate and although not as comfortable it is deadly accurate. I have tried expensive fitness watches but heart rate is frustratingly all over the place. Pay extra for the elite features in the Runmeter App and get a chest HR strap and it’s the best combo and best app around.
I also bought a cheap Suunto 5 so I can monitor my heart beat with out pulling my phone out of my pocket.

### 5/5 — So great!

*2026-02-08, version 12.1.47*

This app does everything I need to track my runs. Instead of spending hundreds of dollars on GPS watches, like my friends, I have more money to spend on shoes.

### 2/5 — Not updated

*2026-01-29, version 12.1.47*

I used to love this app as an easy way to add custom interval plans. However, the app is glitchy now and you can’t save the names of any new plans making it useless to me. I hope they fix it

### 5/5 — De 12,99$ a 19,99$ (1 étoile pour le nouveau prix)

*2026-01-25*

Bonjour… Je suis un abonné de longue date et je me demande pourquoi une augmentation de 12,99 $ à 19,99 $? 

Des options supplémentaires majeurs à venir? 

L’inflation au Canada est de +-4%. 

Votre augmentation est de +++%. 

Merci de nous expliquer (justifier).

Bert

1 étoile pour le prix de votre application.

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2026-06-01, version 12.1.52*

This app makes you pay for something that you can do for free.

### 1/5 — No longer records distance

*2026-01-04, version 12.1.47*

😢

### 1/5 — ひどい

*2025-12-14*

**Developer response:** 追跡機能で問題が発生したとのこと、誠に申し訳ございません。お手数ですが、support@abvioまでサポートチームにご連絡ください。状況を確認し、サポートさせていただきます。

### 1/5 — 有料は年間¥2,500ドル？

*2025-11-14*

しばらく使っていなかったのですが久しぶりに使おうとしてビックリ。課金が年間¥2,500ドルとなってるけど、これって合ってますか？怖すぎて課金できない。年間40万円？無理です。
昔はこんなに高くなかったはずなのになぁ。

**Developer response:** Eliteサブスクリプションは年間2500円です。2500ドルではありません。Eliteへのアップグレードはいつでも可能です。

### 1/5 — No longer supports Apple watch w/o additional upgrade.

*2025-05-12*

I bought this app many years ago and paid for it as it was a great app with many features and continuously upgrading.  It worked for years with my watch and now suddenly I have to upgrade to use features I was always using.  Very disappointing not to support long term users who built the reputation for the app. Switching to Strava.

**Developer response:** I can assure you that nothing has changed in the app that affect our Apple Watch support. It is working exactly the same as always. If you would like help to determine what is causing your issue, please contact support@abvio.com with a description of the problem and they will be glad to assist you.

### 1/5 — Lots of options, very poor UX

*2025-03-19*

The app has lots of features, but is very rough to use. Very unorganized settings and difficult to navigate through to find what you need.

**Developer response:** Sorry that you find the app difficult to use.

### 1/5 — 消えた

*2024-12-29*

何故か過去の履歴が全部消えてしまいました😭
復旧させる事ができる方法あれば教えてください

### 5/5 — The Anchor of My Marathon Training and Everything Else

*2026-10-04, version 12.1.56*

Last year I was recognized by New York Road Runners as age group Runner of the year, a rewarding honor. I have a good chance of repeating this year. I give a lot of credit to Runmeter. 

It is 15 years since I started using RM to record my 22,000+ running miles and additional miles on bike. I love its interface, data and ability to share data with other programs, notably Strava. It is a joy to compare my training and race evolution over time. For better or worse, I barely take a training step without RM.

*2026-07-25, version 12.1.54*

I love the way it logs your run data in the Elite edition … pace, average pace, fastest pace, cadence, heart rate max heart rate and weather conditions. Then stores it to be able to track runs and other exercises
Just waiting for a Ruck exercise to be added😃
