Ratings and reviews

I think I've used every major software in this niche at one point or another over many years. All I want is program to map the walks I take with my dog or for exercise and keep track of it and sometimes share it. I end up dropping these apps for being too intrusive glitchy or bloated etc. So far I'm loving RunnerUp for solving all of those issues for me.

This is apparently the only app that does the basic task of audibly notifying you when your heart rate monitor goes above or below a certain zone. Plus it has mapping, good announcements, and you can set up whatever time and distance intervals you want. I replaced three other apps with just this one. And it's not trying to sell you a subscription or spam you, either. Amazing.

I 've been using this app for almost 4 years, as my Garmin's battery fade out. I use it with Runalyze and Strava, and there's no problem. I have 2 suggestions though: 1) If there are some indoor sports modes such as treadmill running that only tracks my heart rate and time, that's much better; 2) I cannot modify my heart rate zones once I entered my HRmax, I'd appreciate I can custom my heart rate zones. Thanks for your work!
