1. [R9] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · US Good for the most part: When it rains, I run on an indoor track. Unfortunately, the app loses almost all accuracy. The distance is usually less than half of my actual distance. And the route looks like a 2 yr old with a red crayon drew it.
2. [R10] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 2/5 · US Not consistently accurate: Constantly loses time and distance and then starts reforesting at the end which causes you to lose your pace. “I0 min run fast 1 min slow “ just repeated until it catches up. I can count using my watch without the app and not be distracted by those catch up messages. Which also interrupt my music when it’s happening.
3. [R12] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · US Wildly inaccurate p: Records one mile for every 1.3 miles run
4. [R21] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · GB It’s ok for seeing where you’ve ran: I’ve gave this 3 stars, because even though this is good for where you’ve ran, how long etc. I noticed it was not tracking my runs correctly. So for example, I run 5k nearly every day. On this App it says I’m doing 5k in roughly 30 minutes… even when I’m putting in more effort, I may get it just under 30 mins (29mins). So I decided to buy an IWatch and my first
5. [R1] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 2/5 · US Must You?: I love Map My Run EXCEPT at the end of a long, timed run, or at the end of a race when right after pause/hold to finish AN AD POPS UP AND BLOCKS MY TIME. Please stop that.
6. [R22] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 1/5 · US Kill ads on the free version: Love your app I’ve been using it for years, but you seriously need to kill the ads and the prompts to upgrade on the free version. Anyone using your free app has already allowed you to track all of their metrication data runs walks speed pace, weather frequency That’s enough stop prompting me to upgrade every time I use the app and ads when I try to start a run
7. [R37] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 2/5 · US Advertising: I love this app, but it’s hard enough to get the app open and going while juggling my dog. Being forced to turn down the premium ad each time makes using the app more difficult and me less likely to purchase the premium package.
8. [R49] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 2/5 · GB Ads, why?: I am completely disgusted by the addition of advertising to this app. Before when I bought premium it was for the additional benefits, now one of the benefits is I don’t have to see the banner of ads. For that reason alone I won’t purchase another premium subscription. I was willing to live with the app not always tracking my full routes, but this makes me not want to use it at all.
9. [R6] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · US It’s okay: It's okay. It would work better if the creator moved the “pause” button so that, as I’m swiping up, it doesn't inadvertently select pause, and I find out later that the last bit of my workout wasn't recorded.
10. [R7] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 1/5 · US Stopped working: My app no longer tracks the length of my runs or the pace.
11. [R13] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 1/5 · US Paused in the middle: WTF it paused several times when my phone was closed and even once when I opened it and was just watching the screen and paused by itself. Not cool at all
12. [R16] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 1/5 · US App sucks when walking app stops: The software guys need to fix this app. They have not improved this app. So disappointed
13. [R15] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · US Not user friendly: I have tried this app numerous times, but every time I give it a chance I remember why I don’t like it. We have tried creating challenges but you can tweak it after it’s setup which it’s annoying, it should permit you to edit until the challenge stats. Also my Apple Watch never. Syncs or it dos when it wants to. Always too many glitches
14. [R30] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · GB Good app, recent update rubbish: Recent update renders the app unusable on my Series 3 Apple Watch - seems a little unnecessary as it worked perfectly well until the update!
15. [R33] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · GB Apple Watch.: Please update the UI on Apple Watch. It used to be much easier to read / use. (Way before this current view) But the Card view is too small to read and to navigate and doesn’t use the full size of the watch screen. It also flips between the screens too easily. Look at what other apps do for Apple Watch. Runna, Strava, RunKeeper etc the screens are much clearer. I would give this 5
16. [R48] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · GB Great app but….: This is a great app for running. It does everything you need it to do, however when using it on my Apple Watch my minutes per mile are always in kilometres per minute despite changing it to miles on the app. This seems to be the only issue I have found but very frustrating
17. [R3] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · US Needs major upgrades: There is no autocorrect in this app! Makes it difficult to document your exercise.
18. [R11] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 4/5 · US Good but could be improved: It’s good for tracking most basic run metrics but would be greatly improved if it provided a place to add gear and track their usage (mileage). It would also be nice if you could use the map to create a route based on a starting , finishing point and desired distance.
19. [R18] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · GB Changes: I find the App difficult to personalise
20. [R4] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 1/5 · US Location: It never let me change my location
21. [R42] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 3/5 · GB Deleted my workout: I loved this app, until I realised that it has suddenly deleted all the runs I had last year, including my longest run.
22. [R43] Map My Run GPS Running Tracker 1/5 · US Charged without my permission: they charged me for an annual subscription when i didn’t even have the app and never agreed to ANY subscription? tried to get my money back and they won’t let me talk to a human, only AI. Reporting to Apple for this scam
23. [R52] Map My Walk 5/5 · US Saturday morning walk: Great walk
24. [R55] Map My Walk 5/5 · US Walk: A tremendous coverage, thank you
25. [R61] Map My Walk 5/5 · US Powering my Health: Can’t say enough how much Map My Walk has helped me stay disciplined, on track and above all healthy!
26. [R64] Map My Walk 4/5 · US Health walk: Love the app because it keeps track of my walks and I can share with healthcare provider when necessary.
27. [R66] Nike Run Club 5/5 · US The best accurate app ever: This is a powerful app to not only track your mileage but to engage with like minded individuals who love to just do it !! I’ve ran thousands of miles and one thing I love is the ability to see everything I’ve done and store a great picture with my time and distance. Thanks Nike …
28. [R67] Nike Run Club 3/5 · US Pretty Good!: This app has many community challenges I would like to try. The app also has cool running tips that are good to look at and help you. Also, I use the app mostly for my time displays and pace which is nice. I personally like to run by distance, but the app gives you types of runs like speed, recovery, and long run and guides you through it and gives you a music playlist if you want t
29. [R69] Nike Run Club 5/5 · US 4u., ALL 🫡🎖️🏃🏿‍♂️: Since I’ve started Using this App a little over 2 years ago, it has changed my life completely., @jibreelprice4u ㊗️
30. [R71] Nike Run Club 2/5 · US Potential not met: I want to write a good review. The training sessions can help newer runners find motivation. But I cannot ignore the shortcomings. The app is buggy sometimes crashing and losing the entire run. When that is a long run in marathon distance and there is no way to restore or remake it? That sucks. Some portions of the app (rate run effort lock up and won’t let you press the checkb
31. [R80] ASICS Runkeeper, Run Tracker 5/5 · US Loyal running PaTNa!: I have this app since 2011. Used to train for the NYC half. It’s gotten through 1k miles and counting. The cousin from boston running voice is hilarious!
32. [R83] ASICS Runkeeper, Run Tracker 5/5 · US Great app: It’s a great app, it’s free and I just personally haven’t had any problems with it
33. [R86] ASICS Runkeeper, Run Tracker 5/5 · US Great app!!!: I have been using this app in basic mode since 2023. It’s reliable, intuitive, and informative. I recommend using this app to everyone!
34. [R88] ASICS Runkeeper, Run Tracker 5/5 · US Still awesome...: I think I've had this app 11, maybe going on 12 years and it's still awesome. It is perfectly useful. I'm already back to jogging/walking 8 miles a day after a long hiatus. Four in the morning and four in the evening. When I pushed it even harder than that (11.6), it was very clear to see from the following day's distances and times that I pushed it too hard and probably nearly i
35. [R97] Strava 5/5 · US Running …: Easy to use. As a runner I live the maps, ease of tracking my weeks and the maps. As a coach I love the groups, group events, and being able to track my athletes during off season.
36. [R100] Strava 4/5 · US Great tracker to keep me motivated: Love the app in general and like that I can trace back my steps and see my progress. Not thrilled with the app update though - too much animation resulting in additional wait time to see my results. All these seconds add up over time and creates screen fatigue. Also when I upload my activities, it seems to take a while before I can see it on the feed. The previo
37. [R103] Strava 5/5 · US Music Playlists would make better!: I love this app. But ADDING MUSIC PLAYLISTS TO OUR WALJS WOULD MAKE THIS 6/5 STARS! Anyone agree? Please help me make make some noise about this and hopefully the developers will add this feature!
38. [R106] Strava 5/5 · US Tehehehe: Ts app was good but when will there be 3d buildings 🥺? I have used this app on my Samsung Phone and watch with Samsung health but I was wondering if I can connect with Apple health with this app. Gotta look cool with my thingies 😎
39. [R108] Running Trainer 5/5 · US In use: Constantly
40. [R111] Running Trainer 5/5 · US Love it: This app is amazing. It tracks my distance and my time. The app also gives you badges when you accomplish a goal or a new streak. The app also allows you to add runs that you may have not done using the app. When I run on the treadmill I’m able to add those to the app or when I do long walks I’ll add my distance. I’ve been using the app and the free version of the app for years and it’s
41. [R114] Running Trainer 5/5 · US I Love It 🐍🐍🐍: I had this app before and it always do right by me 🦍🔥
42. [R117] Running Trainer 5/5 · US Top Ten App: Been using this for years because it’s reliable and simple and doesn’t interrupt me with ads or cash grabs. Couldn’t recommend this for enough.
43. [R92] ASICS Runkeeper, Run Tracker 4/5 · US Love it: LOVE the guided workouts on free version. I bought the pro version when I was training for a half marathon and the plan it gave me was awesome and totally worth it for someone who enjoys structure !!
44. [R99] Strava 1/5 · US Used to be good.: Recently this app has gone downhill. You cannot get a real person to speak to if you’re having issues with the app. Recently the app does not load. It is just a black screen and an error message that says please try again. The only way to contact user support is a chat bot that doesn’t understand you and can’t help you and when it realizes there is no answer to give you it gives
45. [R105] Strava 1/5 · US Atrocious customer support!: Their AI bot “Miles” has no ability to solve anything and closes chats with you. There is no way to talk to customer support. Even when the bot says someone will be in touch you just get an email saying they can’t help you. I am a paying subscriber and you are ducking answering any questions or actually helping me with the fact that you are letting another user in a di
46. [R116] Running Trainer 1/5 · US Watch Out, They’ll Charge You: I clicked the 7 day free trial to look inside the app. They charged me $98! Trying to get the charge removed from my card…be careful.
47. [R118] Running Trainer 1/5 · US Scam: Says free trial but I was immediately charged for 1 year
48. [R120] Running Trainer 1/5 · US Beware of “Free Trial” offer: This app offers a 7 day free trial to be able to use the pro service and then decide if you want to do the full subscription. However when you sign up for the trial, they charge you the full $89.99 right then and there rather than the free trial period. I have reported this to Apple but if nothing gets done just wanted to give a heads up in case anyone tries to sign u
