Really needs an update but the core functionality is there. Well done.

UPDATE: 7 yr.s later-2022 I broke my leg & took a break from running. I recently started running again. My five-star rating still stands! *See original 2015 rating. (2015) I started from nothing. I was never a serious 5K runnner. This app helps you build your stamina and speed at a steady methodical pace. It makes it easy to start and easy to keep doing. Each week you increase your run time in between the brisk walking....before you know it you are running like a pro.

It doesn't have a dark theme and the design feels a bit outdated. Randomly stops logging runs and doesn't warn you. I just completed a full run, and when I went to the stats it only logged the first 3 minutes. On a positive note, I like the single fee to upgrade, instead of a monthly subscription other apps offer.

I purchased this app a long time ago but haven't used it in years. Decided to start using it again. I can open the app by first going to PlayStore where it shows the app is downloaded to my phone but the app icon isn't in the list of apps.

I've used the timed version of the runs with few issues (it never synced with my watch as it is supposed to) but now that I am trying to use the distance runs I find that it consistently loses GPS signal. All the necessary settings are there to allow it but I see in other reviews that this is a common issue that the developers are not willing to fix. It is quite frustrating to keep checking my phone to make sure that it is still tracking the distance correctly. It really defeats the purpose of having the app, which I paid to have the full version of. If you are only planning on running for time, just stick with the free version. It's a waste of money for anything else. The developers are relying on past positive reviews to get revenue without supporting current/new users with issues.

Waste of time. A free app that is not the full version until you pay should not be considered free. Not paying for a glorified timer app.

Updated 2/22/2022 This app used to work great, then all of a sudden the GPS stopped working. My review changed from 5 stars to 2... mind you I have the paid version As someone who is NOT a runner, I find myself sticking with it. I love when my trainer says, slow your pace to a brisk walk. Lol! Cool app

Not recording distance or GPS maps very disappointed. Someone needs to sort this out.
