### 4/5 — It does what it should.

*2025-01-29, version 3.1*

As with most charting apps, axes should be directly customizable.

### 4/5 — Jebjay

*2024-11-16, version 3.1*

Needs a little updating!

### 5/5 — Great program

*2024-03-05, version 3.1*

Simple to use with just the info you are looking for in a running log.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-01-31, version 3.1*

Love this app to keep record of my runs. Easy to use.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2024-01-02, version 3.1*

Simple… concise… reliable… I have been using Running Log for many years. It’s become a mainstay with my running regiment.  It is an excellent tool for adding your customized routes, converting the data into an Excel file, and keeping an accurate account of your running history.  Backing up your data is a breeze and it’s easily transferable to another device.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2023-12-09, version 3.1*

I love this app. I’ve been using it for years.

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2023-11-23, version 3.1*

I’ve used this app to log my runs for a decade. It’s been invaluable and user friendly with the ability to back up my data.

### 4/5 — Dave1047

*2023-11-23, version 3.1*

Very nice...sometimes a little Difficult to navigate... would like to see more places to put bike and swim other than just in comments..maybe a page with directions too? And an easy way to print out a log of what I’ve done in the last few years? Thank you Dave

### 5/5 — The simplicity!!!

*2023-10-30, version 3.1*

Well, my data from this app goes back probably 10 years.  That should say something!

### 5/5 — Great log

*2023-10-18, version 3.1*

I have been using this app for many years now and I love it. An excellent tool for me to track/log all my runs.

### 5/5 — Great app to easily track miles

*2023-10-17, version 3.1*

I’ve been using this app for years. It’s an easy app that helps me track the miles I run.

### 5/5 — Outstanding App

*2023-10-07, version 3.1*

Reliable and easy to use

### 5/5 — Love this Log!

*2023-10-04, version 3.1*

I’ve been using this log for 10 years and love it! No glitches just a solid running log

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2023-10-04, version 3.1*

I have used this app daily for years!

### 5/5 — Great running log

*2023-09-29, version 3.1*

Great for keeping a personal running log and notes.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2023-09-26, version 3.1*

Have been using this app for almost a decade now along with another well known GPS tracking app for running. I would pick this app over any other because of how easy and clean it is to export my data to a txt file so I can keep it backed up forever. Most times, simple is better.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2023-09-25, version 3.1*

Very good

### 5/5 — Used this for years! Perfect

*2023-09-22, version 3.1*

I love this easy to use Running Log and have enjoyed reviewing my mileage using weeks, months, years, and “lifetime!.” It’s an excellent record and is independent of other tech I use that connect to my watch. I find it has been beneficial to have this back up. Love it!

### 4/5 — App

*2023-09-22, version 3.1*

The new app is ok, the old one was better and easier to read overall. Might look for something else

### 4/5 — Almost perfect!

*2023-09-22, version 3.1*

Wish there were more runners options like HIIT and VIIT (variable intensity, interval, training) for those that don’t know.

Otherwise, it’s awesome and a vital part of my training.

### 1/5 — Please Go Back to Previous Version!

*2016-03-07, version 2.1*

I do not like new version. I don't like the way you now tap twice to get to date; nor that you cannot enter distance and time on same screen; nor the scrool to get location; nor the new blue and red; and a lot of other small things. It was great, almost perfect the way it was for several years.  PLEASE let us have the option to go back...I never should have updated it!

### 1/5 — Miss the old interface

*2015-06-03, version 2.1*

Not sure if this version is an attempt to modernize but at least on my phone it has so much less appeal. I liked the calendar view where I could see in a glance my effort, type of run, etc. now all I can see is mileage. Loved the old. Won't recommend the new, and may stop using it.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2015-06-02, version 2.1*

Old app was great which I'd used for many years. Updated version rubbish! I'm writing this review whilst looking for a new app to upload & delete this one.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2015-05-18, version 2.0*

Revert to the old Running Log. This doesn't work. Poor.

### 1/5 — Unable to enter proper duration!

*2015-05-10, version 2.0*

When trying to enter a run duration of 2hrs 1 minute and 25 seconds using the new scrolling (H:M:S) format, this newest version spits out a duration of 3:21:25?? Very frustrating and am considering jumping ship to a different app should this issue not get resolved soon!

### 1/5 — Disaster

*2015-05-06, version 2.0*

What a dreadful new version!!
Why did you change it?

### 1/5 — You've ruined the app

*2015-05-06, version 2.0*

I HATE IT!!!!!!! You took a beautiful photo of an app and turned it into a crappy sheet of paper looking app, with exactly the same features. I want my money back! What made you think ANYONE would want this kind of a looking app? Did you actually get people saying, "uhm, I don't like the colourful app, can you tone it down and do something simple?"

### 2/5 — Being back the old version!!

*2016-03-20, version 2.1*

I would have given the old version five stars but it is now unresponsive and clunky to use! The graph is terrible and is lost on a phone! I really want to delete it but don't want to lose the data.

### 2/5 — Summary for week includes 8 days...

*2016-01-08, version 2.1*

I've been using the app for years but the new update is really bad. It's not as easy to view the summary and when you look at the weekly summaries, it shows Sunday to Sunday and includes runs on both days!  They need to fix this!!

### 2/5 — More than one run per day??

*2015-06-01, version 2.1*

I think this app is great but why are we not able to log more than one run per day? I'm giving this two stars until I'm able to log more than one run per day.

### 5/5 — Classic

*2026-08-15, version 3.1*

Been using this app for years now. Has everything I need to track the details of my runs . Simple and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Simple minimalist tracking

*2026-07-24, version 3.1*

I enjoy the simplicity of this tracking app. It is easy to use and has a calendar at a glance component that I like. I can name my running routes, which is nice for routine running routes. I also use the notes section for details about the run, my post run workouts and even rest day movements.

### 5/5 — Riding' Rude

*2026-07-03, version 3.1*

I love this app. It does almost everything I'd do in a running log except, 1. Please add ability to add comments to a day without adding a run (such as sick weather, other special events) 2. Any war to add weight or other physical entries.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-03-19, version 3.1*

The weekly mileage feature does not calculate correctly once you start a new week.  It calculate 8 days once the Monday mileage is entered.  Other than that I love the app!!

### 5/5 — AMAZING Running Log App.  Had this app since 2009!

*2026-01-04, version 3.1*

Love this Running Log app, as I’ve been using it since 2009!  Great layout and enjoy how it keeps history of all your workouts!  Thank you!

### 5/5 — Don't like the new update

*2025-10-20, version 3.1*

Loved this app since I've bought it 2 years ago!But with the new update,it didn't work well for me as much as it did before.Can I have the old version back,is that possible???
One of my complain is since the background is white,it's hard to tell if u click the right date,esp if you're back tracking your activities,so it all went to the recent date and I have to keep clicking and clicking,until frustration builds up!Maybe change the background so u know the date you're trying to access???Just wondering if that helps???

### 5/5 — Great!

*2025-07-06, version 3.1*

Been using this for years! Makes it easy to track mo the miles and pace.

### 5/5 — Used for years!

*2024-12-23, version 3.1*

Great to track all my activity.

### 5/5 — Tried and true

*2024-09-10, version 3.1*

Love it. Been using It for years. Others things come and go and I always use this in the end.

### 5/5 — Simple, personal, easy to use running log

*2024-05-04, version 3.1*

For anyone appreciates recording you own data and personal judgement on how workouts are going this is the app for you. I love its simplicity, space for description and the calendar that you want to fill with red running days. Put a robot out of a job and use this app. Strongly recommended.
