Ratings and reviews

I use to love this app, however, it has been battery hungry especially when not in use. My fully charged cell phone went from 100% to 46% in 2 hours. When I checked my battery setting, this app had over 50% battery use in the background, while I was at work. I have done the usual clear cache, uninstall/reinstall with no success. I also turned off background use permission, however, the app will not work at all without being allowed to run in the background. Onto something new, I guess.

(I have the free version.) The main thing I use this app for is to have it tell me when to run and walk and keep track of how long/when, etc. It does a great job of that. But it always messes up my map, and shows me zig-zagging all over the city. So on a 2 mile workout, it says I've done like 25 miles. So that's pretty annoying. My goal is to be able to run for a certain amount of time, so the mileage isn't super important to me. But it would be nice if the GPS worked all the time!

This app (and some motivation) made a runner out of me! I had never been a runner, and I had tried C25K a few times and quit early. I found this app extremely helpful in building both physical and mental endurance. I use the customizable interval feature to make long workouts or to motivate me through a race. I even use it on half-marathons. I couldn't run more than a couple of minutes when I started. Great app, I recommend it to other aspiring runners all the time.
