### 5/5 — T

*2026-03-20, version 1.4.3*

T

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-02-23, version 1.4.2*

For straight forward tracing and mapping of the daily walk with the dog this is brilliant value. Probably not quite detailed enough for the super athletic type but all the details for the casual walker and for me, a once off payment for the pro version, (no subscription) it’s a winner.

### 5/5 — Very good

*2025-02-06, version 1.4.2*

Very good walking app, but would be even better if it had pedometer/step counter

### 5/5 — Excellent App!

*2024-12-03, version 1.4.2*

I rarely have an app that I go back to time and time again, however this one is a gem! Tells me everything I need to know when I go out for my walks and it’s great to look back and see the history of when and where I did my walking. Highly recommend this app!!

### 1/5 — Why does it require “Location Services” to be ALWAYS ON???

*2024-06-24, version 1.4.2*

I’m inherently suspicious of any app that requires Location Services to be “Always On.” This seems draconian and unnecessary to me. App to trash.

### 1/5 — Does not record all walks

*2024-05-26, version 1.4.2*

I did a 2.7 mile walk then stopped at a friends home for about 1/2 hour.  When I left to head home app did not recognize I had already gone 2.7 miles.  It started all over again at zero.  I had setting setting at always track so should automatically stop tracking when I am sitting still, but begin again when I start moving. I have will remove app from phone and try to find an app that really does keep data of my runs.

### 4/5 — Great app, which functions well

*2024-03-28, version 1.4.2*

Does everything I expected, and functions reliably.  

The only ding is that I haven’t been able to link it to my Apple Watch, so I don’t have to dig out the iPhone to see how far I’ve walked. I walk with distance goals, and vary the routes to keep it from getting boring. So, on a new route I’m never sure of how far I’ve walked thus far, or how much further I need to walk to meet the goal. If I could link with the Apple Watch, it would be a five star app.  And, if it logged my pulse when I call it up from the watch it would be perfect.

### 4/5 — Music function won’t remember the playlist

*2024-02-26, version 1.4.2*

The music function has been somehow resetting itself lately.  It won’t remember what playlist is selected, and I have to manually set it each time.  This was not a problem before, so something changed along the way.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2024-02-13, version 1.4.2*

Nice easy basic app , tells me what I need to know no messing around having to scroll through lots of irrelevant information, good for keeping a track of what you have done, and where you have been, awesome

### 5/5 — Works like it should.

*2023-12-23*

Clean simple app, with a well engineered interface.  Only thing I might add is the ability to import heart rate from an AppleWatch or other device. And an AppleWatch version of the app would be convenient.  But I rarely go out without the phone is definitely not a “need”, just a nice to have.
