Miles aren’t credited
Great app— good for pets and people!
Good cause but lacking updates

WoofTrax is currently not available for smartwatches and connected devices, including Apple Watch or Garmin, but it is something we are looking into! We appreciate your feedback and will pass along your suggestion about adding a feature to upload GPS files to our development team. Thanks! 🐾
Great idea
Great way to support
The ads ruin the app
The ads that appear after you complete a walk now are NOT easily closed by clicking an “x” in the corner. They used to be static ads that were easy to close. Now the ads are mostly videos that require some kind of interaction to close them, or at least require them to play for several seconds before they can be closed. This makes the app practically unusable.
Again, these interactive ads are now appearing when you finish a walk, not just when you click “Earn 5 extra points.” I’ve resorted to force quitting the app and reopening it just to bypass these highly annoying ads.
I use this app to track my dog walks (time and distance) and hopefully raise money for my favorite rescue. I have no idea if the rescue actually ever sees any money from it. The map feature allows me to plot walks in new areas, which is great.
The only reason for the low rating is the advertising; it makes the app almost unusable. The ads are often detrimental to the app functioning properly. Especially bad are the video ads that appear when you click “Earn 5 extra points.” These often cause the app to freeze and require a reboot. And the ads you need to click “continue” on to finish watching are the worst. Why not stick with static (not video) ads that are related to animals and animal care? That would be a vast improvement.

Hi Grubbieduc, We appreciate your feedback! Google serves the ads on WoofTrax, we do not select them. After a walk, you should see an ad, and then you can choose to watch an optional ad for an extra 5 points if you like. When you see an ad after a walk, there should be a way to close the ad. There should be a small “X” at the top left or right of the screen, or there should be a button with the word “Close”. WoofTrax is able to donate to animal charities thanks to our sponsors and advertisers, including advertising on the app. If you have questions please email support@wooftrax.com. Thanks!🐾
Are they legit-do they forward funds???

iOS is updated,app is updated, the app has been randomly quitting right after I start my walk.
If I could I would give zero stars. Terrific idea, but if it quits & doesn't record walk the Groups I walk for are missing out.
I have an email communication going & less than pleased with the responses. I've sent several screen shots of issue.
Please rectify this issue.
I will be using RESQWALK instead.

Misleading
Latest app update 10/2022
My 2022 review is below. Been using the app for about 2 years. Last night the app updated to its latest version. Looks different and needs getting used to. Sad part is that my history and walks are now messed up. Also my challenges only reflect walks taken after the app update, the pat walks are not showing anymore 🙄 App is using in app advertising to finance the donations.
Update, developer reached out and said they are working on some fixes.
Another issue that’s quite annoying, when you’re done walking, the app will display an ad, but in the new version the close button is moved so far up on the display that it’s virtually impossible to close the ad. I have to force close the app to get out of this screen.
These are things the developers could have checked prior to releasing the app. Smh
Easy and Fun!

UPDATE: Hi Loki is the best, Sorry for your frustration! Please email support@wooftrax.com so our support team can assist you. It’s good you checked Background App Refresh is ON as that can cause issues with walking tracking if it’s set to OFF. You will also want to make sure each walk is .25 miles or greater. If your walks are not uploading, it could be a data connection issue, or you may need to reset the app by logging out and signing back in. Thanks for your patience. Jul 9, 2024: Hi Loki is the best, Thanks for your feedback! We have fixed the issue with the Walk Map screen displaying only 2 decimal points for distance and released a new update (6.9.25) - please update now. Once your walks on the Walk Map reach 0.250 miles or more your walk will earn 10 charity points. Weekly goals have been a long asked for feature and was actually on an earlier version of WoofTrax for several years. One of the main reasons we have re-introduced Weekly Goals is that pet parents like yourself often use this to keep their pet in a healthy weight range. Veterinarians will often recommend that a dog is walked a certain number of miles per week to keep them as healthy as possible. Also at times, its not possible to do a walk every day if the weather is poor for what ever reason. We do realize we could have done a better job of giving notice that this update was coming, and apologize for the sudden change. And given your feedback, we will discuss with our team adding in a Daily Goals option in addition to the new Weekly Goals format. Thanks for your patience.
