### 1/5 — Nope

*2026-08-19, version 2.7.8*

The free trial cost me 15$

### 1/5 — Lost history one app stopped working, and I had to reinstall

*2026-08-14*

Hello! I have emailed a few help messages but I have not received a response. Now today I had to reinstall the app again due to a new phone. When I reinstalled the app last year, due to the app not working for me, I lost all of my prior miles walked, over 1,200. Today when I reinstalled the app I once again lost my miles and now my subscription. I tried to restore purchases and  nothing happened. I am a yearly subscriber. I do not see anyplace to log in. The app wants me to get the higher priced subscription. Where do I log in and how do I get my prior miles walked back on the app?  Thank you for your time,
Vicky Bloemer

### 3/5 — Easy

*2026-07-15, version 2.7.4*

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-06-19, version 2.7.2*

### 1/5 — It’s not free

*2026-06-13, version 2.7.2*

You can at the least let people know it’s not free and requires a membership….couldnt get past the first steps without having to pay….do better

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-06-02, version 2.7.2*

I like it very much

### 3/5 — Not so great; buggy

*2026-02-06*

I used to like this app, but in the past few months I’ve had trouble with it. The auto-start/stop feature can be problematic. I’ve had it pause when I stopped, but instead of resuming tracking my progress, it just stopped. If I didn’t catch it to restart, my progress wouldn’t be tracked. 

And, it doesn’t allow for editing when this happens, nor when it incorrectly calculates the distance. (I’ve gotten different distance results for the same trail and identical stop and start points. 

I’ve cancelled my subscription

### 1/5 — Navigation

*2025-11-29, version 2.6.9*

Very difficult… continue to spin on GPS

### 1/5 — Won’t let me in my $4.99 annual account now!!!

*2025-08-01*

I have enjoyed using this app for several years until recently. All of a sudden now when I turn on the app it wants me to sign up for “premium” acct … I don’t want to as have been pleased with my $4.99 annual fee as I do not use it all the time. I cannot find any way to bypass it this annoying add and start tracking my walks when I want to. No “x” to close the ad. HELP! Really upset!!!!

### 1/5 — Walking Distance Tracker

*2025-07-12, version 2.6.7*

It doesn't list you have to buy until you have answered one hundred questions.
