Not free

You have to download it before you realize it’s not free. That’s deceptive. If you are going to make people pay for your app make it cost something when you download.

They’ve really upgraded the walks

I enjoy logging my steps. Looking forward to more walks continually being added, especially the long ones!

Latest update

Update: Thanks for listening. I can now walk the trails in any order which is how it should be. It's frankly insane that you changed it to a fixed order before, which rather defeated the whole point of the app. I've given you an extra star. I'd give 5 stars if there were more countries to collect - there are about 195 altogether, you know!

When I downloaded this app last week, I was able to choose any route and walk it at my own pace. Now, suddenly, I'm forced to do all the walks in a set order which just ruins the app. Now you cat start with the easy walks and walk up to longer ones (important if recovering from a heart condition, for example) - you finish a 3000 step walk and suddenly it expects you to do a 65000 step walk. Why? Just put it back to how it was and let me choose the order I do the walks

Fun app; needs more trails

Great app, just wish you didn’t have to pay for a membership to do majority of the trails. Especially for the country you live in, those could be free.
