Fun app

This app has me out walking, I’ll be running slow soon. I enjoy the different character as I’m listing. If you looking for something different or to help you get started this is it.

Need portuguese please

I’m on week 7 and have yet to be chased by a Zombie?

For 7 weeks I’ve listened to these characters (which aren’t written nearly well enough to get invested in their backstories) talk vaguely about some girl who died before you ever got there. This is taking so long and going nowhere. I just wanted to get chased by zombies damn.

App crushed, workout not recorded

Run for 29minute, app crushed. No workout logged…

Not interactive, Won't let me delete account, Pay wall

Just an audio book with distance tracking.
The app won't let me re-request the email to verify account, so I'm not even able to delete my account.
The app never even sent me the email in the first place to verify my email.
No interactive feature that maps the location of the zombie with respect to you.
Pay wall will not let you advance past week 3.
