Love this app

It can be very frustrating at times. Will turn itself off randomly and doesn't always count blocks the first time. And you end up having to walk back and forth several time. And it often thinks there are public walkway where there isn't one. But this app is addictive. I wish i could toggle walked and unwalked blocks on/off independently. So i could see both together.

This is cool

Yes it’s cool. Get it. Use it. The end. I hate writing reviews. It’s free.

Freezes

Love the idea of the app, but it constantly freezes and does not record my entire walks, sometimes just part

Love this app

This is such a fun way to track your adventures and encourage you to try some new walks for your route. I really like it.

incredible and doesn’t take your data

this app is such a lovely visualization, I wish it was here when I first moved! love love that it doesn’t take your data too

Best app there is

My favorite app on planet earth. Wish it were around 44 years earlier.

This app seems to have been abandoned

I loved this app when I first found it but it had started turning off walks sometimes with and sometimes without warning. Making it so a have to re walk a block for it to get counted. I find myself spend more time making sure the app it working than I do enjoying the new parts nyc I'm seeeing. Yes this app in addictive but now it feel like a job instead of a passtime

Walk More

This app has inspired my partner and me to walk a lot more. There’s so much to discover in this beautiful, chaotic city.

Tracking

Won’t let you manually put in the blocks you’ve already walked even though it says you can, but pretty solid otherwise

Liking it

Had to remove the app and redownloaded but my progress didn't save, otherwise great app hope that can improve

I get around

This app inspires me to be more active and explorative myP to take turns I ordinarily wouldn’t have stumbled upon opportunities. I ordinarily wouldn’t have.

Fun app

Fun app, making me walk a lot.

Wishlist: hopefully next version can have better power management since I think other apps can track same way without the power drain!

Haven’t Worked in a Week

My app wont let me use it until it’s updated… but I’ve been trying to “update” it for over a week. Idk how much longer I’m going to wait.

Interesting Idea

I was trying to do this with Strava. So no login ha? All the information is stored on device and will be lost if you change phone?

If you love NYC you will love this app.

I grabbed this app almost the week it was available and I’ve been loving it ever since. I can’t say that it has driven more walking on my part (I already walk at least 3 miles every day within an average of 5 miles per day) but the app has driven me to walk new blocks that I don’t think I’ve been on in months or even years. If you love New York City then you’ll love this app.

Why takes so long to update??

And why does it keep needing to be uodated every day??

No other app us like this

Awesome app

I’m really enjoying this app! Well designed and easy to use.

Fantastic

this app rocks and it’s something i’ve been looking for but it’s definitely got some bugs. My app often completes blocks ahead of me and marks them as previously walked even when I haven’t, this is usually when I have walked some blocks surrounding or head. I’m sure this is just bugs that will be worked out and overall the UX of the app is great, straight forward, easy to use, and visually not overdone. Walk on!

Good concept, terrible performance

A really cool app but it’s performance is nothing short of terrible. It took 46 seconds for the app to open up. Will share screen recording with developer if curious. Unusable app until performance is improved

Love the idea, poor execution

The app consistently fails to track multiple blocks in all different neighborhoods. I love the idea but I think there are significant kinks to work out.
