I also wish there was a Pause for when you are paused at an intersection. I am only walking at this time but hope to get use to this before I am able to start running. I di wish that when you save the images, it is just one and not two separate ones to show the route and statistics ### 3/5 — It’s ok *2024-08-15, version 8.1* App works sometimes. When it does it’s good. ### 3/5 — Stopped tracking *2024-05-31, version 7.8* Stopped during hiking. My phone was in my pants back pocket. I pulled it out and could not find a continue icon. ### 4/5 — Won’t reset to zero. *2024-01-27, version 7.3* Every time I open the app, the mileage is already at a certain amount, like .4 or 1.15, so you can’t start at zero. It still happens even after I close out of the app completely. There is also no help available on the app to find out how to reset it. Disappointed. If they fixed this bug, it would be great. ### 5/5 — So good! *2024-01-09, version 7.3* It looks so simple. It gives you a map of where you are. You can even play music! It also lets you make a profile and requires no payments! Omg it’s so good! ### 2/5 — Not working!!!!!! *2023-10-16, version 7.0* At first this worked flawlessly few months. Now it stops intermittedly so I don’t know how far I’ve ran, miles nothing. I run for about 45mins it shows between 30 secs and 10 minutes and closes. I PAID FOR THIS PLEASE FIX WITH A UPDATE THIS IS ANNOYING!!!! ### 2/5 — 😡 *2023-10-12, version 6.8* I can’t even cancel because you say you don’t have my email. You are also putting info a day ahead. You are confusing me. I hate this app! Please help me cancel. My name is Mariana Oceguera. ### 5/5 — Walking app *2023-10-10, version 6.8* Easy to use ### 5/5 — Very good app I love it *2023-10-07, version 6.8* I love it ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Did not work *2026-04-24, version 10.2* Downloaded this app and it did not even work ### 1/5 — Always asking for a rating *2026-01-18, version 10.0* Everytime I stop running the app asks if I am enjoying the app before I can stop the timer. What a pain. Doing this don’t will leave me alone. ### 1/5 — pay for anything *2025-05-13, version 9.0* It seems great but you have to get a subscription to do anything with it ### 1/5 — False calories *2025-05-01, version 9.0* I walked 3.6 miles and it told me I burnt 1664 calories. ### 1/5 — Signed up and no stats available *2024-06-30, version 8.0* I paid for the subscription and started to track my run - not only the app not create an account for me it failed to track or record any distance or path. This is a very misleading app and difficult to navigate. Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — I subscribed mistakenly *2024-03-12, version 7.4* 😭😭pls i need a refund ### 1/5 — Miles. Can’t write in .5? *2024-02-08, version 7.3* Can’t see my review either ### 1/5 — Subscription *2024-01-11, version 7.3* You need to pay to use anything on the app. ### 1/5 — Does not track time or miles *2023-09-29, version 6.8* The app does not calculate time or miles correctly!!! I feel like this app is such a waste of $20.00. ### 1/5 — Measurements way off scale *2023-09-14, version 6.8* Terrible app I’m 12 and appently I ran 15 miles in only 1.17 min, that would mean I beat the half marathon world record by over 20 min.
