### 3/5 — Glitchy

*2026-08-11*

After walking a further 4 miles from my last stop street view is still the same place. And sometimes doesn’t show a thing.

### 2/5 — Lost my data

*2026-06-13*

Not gonna start over. Just not worth it to me. Used to enjoy looking up where i as, seeing what was around.nglad i finished the route 66 route. Sad i was in the middle of the worlds longest walk.

### 1/5 — Move thousands of steps and stay in the same place

*2026-06-08*

This version is poor compared with the old one. You can repeatedly move thousands of steps along a walk and yet the street view picture remains the same. You really don’t get to see very much of the trail at all. A big disappointment!

### 4/5 — No way to contact the developer

*2026-06-04*

I love the app but the daily sync has stopped working so I can’t add steps to the bank or progress on any walks. The daily total is correct so the sync with Apple Health is fine. It was fine until yesterday afternoon.

### 1/5 — Now it’s paid…

*2026-04-30*

Now you can only have one walk without paying 😒 I am so disappointed!!!!

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-04-23*

Been using world walking for years. The transition to the new version was seamless. 
Loving the new look. 😁

### 5/5 — New web site

*2026-04-16*

I like the new site!

### 5/5 — Great upgrade

*2026-04-06*

I used the old free app and am pleased to upgrade to Plus on the new version for the extra features and world stats 🌍🏃‍♂️

### 5/5 — New app is great

*2026-04-06*

Love the new app! So much better than the old one. Really happy it’s been updated.

### 5/5 — Motivates me to walk more

*2026-04-06*

I love being able to use street view to see where my walk takes me, fun to use as a group participant. It’s encouraged me to walk more and as an OAP I can feel the benefit. I find the app easy to use and received good support when I needed it.
