I use Pacer for the virtual challenge and while I do like the challenge feature with the maps and postcards, I found the app to be a bit clunky at times, especially when trying to look at my progress while doing a challenge. My main issue however is that the app unpaused a paused challenge without any action from me and I have now an ended unfinished challenge and no medal. Response from support will definitely affect whether or not I will give this app and the pacer challenge another shot.

This app is helpful. It keeps track of your steps even when you have no internet connection or are out of cell range. One thing I would say, and it's not a bad thing just a little inconvenient, is that as a 3rd shift worker I deal with the time switching from the end to the beginning of each day and it doesn't account for the two technically being one setting for me. It would be nice to have it combined for people like me, but it isn't that big a deal and I can manage fine either way.

I love how fun the pacer app is, especially if you have someone to share your progres with. My sister and I do this, we both encourage and praise one another along the way! The app seems to be pretty accurate on counting steps, although once in awhile it will lag behind a bit, but then it catches right back up. I use it mostly while walking my small dog and she loves to stop to sniff and investigate whatever she smells. I believe this is the reason it lags occasionally. I highly recommend Pacer!
