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

Tracking

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