Reviews for ASICS Runkeeper - Run Tracker

This app was working great until about a week and a half ago now it keeps saying it can't find GPS even though I'm running the same exact route that it was tracking just fine for months. The few times that it does start it will stop about 5 minutes in and say that I've completed my run without me ever touching pause or stop. I was happy with this app but its time to find another.

Been using this for over a year, nothing too serious, just recreational running. Been good to me. Sometimes, the gps does not work properly (e.g. I'll run the same route but it will show different distances), but I don't know if that's a problem with the app or my phone. I reached out to customer service with a question and they were quick and helpful!

As of late I get message that app is not responding properly. Overall I am pleased with the app, but it's frustrating when i get that error message. And sometimes when it finally "works" it does not keep track of calories burned. Seriously, a 3+ mile run/walk and no calories burned? 05/11/24 - The last few months it hasn't tracked progress on challenges. Asks if I want to join even though I've already joined at the beginning of the month. Very

I hated it, it made me so frustrated, I would go for a long run, and i would use this to track how far I traveled and how long it would take me, but it would continuously cut me off way too short!! It would stop tracking after .05 miles or even .33 miles for no reason, i know for a fact the problem was not on my end, but I just kept restarting the running tracker and it would still just stop for whatever reason. I'm done with this app, my profile is now filled with runs less than half a mile.

The app certainly has some nice features. However, perhaps they want users to sign in with Facebook or whatever to monetize their data, but as far as I can tell, if you have a standard account you created with RunKeeper, there is no way in your account settings (either with the app or online) to change your password! Nor is there a way to contact customer support to ask to have your password changed. Seems like a non- trivial security issue to me, which is why I only give them 3 stars.

For a free app, I highly recommend this product. I am considering purchasing the pay version, considering how much enjoy (and rely) on this version. I live in a less-than-favorable area currently and there are many hills, and I often venture on small, narrow trails to avoid people. The app's GPS tracks me very well. Recommend.

I have been using this app for years and in general am quite happy with it. I just do the free version. My biggest complaints is actually the lack of more common feminine issues that can be marked when you note that the run isn't great. Would love to see categories like 'hips' and 'pelvic floor' added to the lineup. Or for all -- 'mindset/mental'. These issues are more impactful in my running than the options currently available.

Installed to log mile times. Constantly stopped tracking, so I looked at my phone after not hearing updates to see that it hadn't tracked anything and the app telling me to give them money for pro. Terrible experience Edit: Tried again, still doesnt track activities correctly. It doesn't matter how the GPS is doing if it randomly decides to stop the activity whenever it wants anyways. Choose this app if you want to spend more time looking at your device than exercising. Anything is better

I actually paid for this app. Bought it because I want to start running regularly and the My 5k program seemed really useful. I love the coach, Erin, and her voice isn't annoying at all. The issue is that the workouts don't load properly. Currently sitting on my couch (again) waiting for the workout I already did to play through so I can go on my run. Who wants to spend an extra half hour waiting for an app to load in the early morning before a run? Hopefully they resolve this annoying ass issue.

Good run-tracking functionality, and I like that it allows you to program your own intervals. The guided runs are okay, but I find the trainers talk way too much, to the point where it gets annoying. It also automatically lowers the volume of your music for the entirety of the run and doesnt give you any option of changing it, which is unacceptable IMO.

Bring back the My Stats tables! They're so easy to read at a glance! If you want to add the charts, make that in addition to not instead of! There's a lovely little joy in the ritual of glancing at the screen and seeing how this run fit into an overall week, month, year's movement. It's so not the same to have to scroll through a million different graphs. And why use up space on my screen to show ads for Go - I'm already a paying customer and have been for years and years. What's going on?!?!?

I've been using this app (free version) since 2018. Opened the android app this weekend and have no access to my weekly, monthly, annually comparison, nor my history of stats. I'm disappointed to say the least. I'm not sure even if I pay the annual subscription if I'll get those comparisons. Time to upgrade to a running watch and ditch this app. Enough with the subscription business model for everything. I won't buy it!

Has been quirky since an update over a year ago. You'll save an activity then it will pop up again when you start another activity. Free version gives good totals for week, month, and year. Does seem to track fast, about 10 seconds per mile faster than actual. Saves activities very quick which is a plus.

I loved this app for how simple it was to use. For the last two and half years, this app has struggled to record my runs, walks and hikes accurately. I was going to delete this app yesterday, but saw that it had an update and hoped that would fix the problem. Went for a five miles walk this morning and on the breakdown page of miles to minutes it shows I did five miles, but on the main recording page when you stop your activity it only showed 3.84. I'm going to move on.

Have been using this app since 2020 and it worked well for me until the most recent updates. The stats page is no longer user friendly and I miss the old Insights. Being able to track my lifetime monthly mileage was important for me to plan out my training cycles, but now all I can see are the last 5 months or yearly averages. Feels like the new update was not designed by actual runners because it does not capture the stats and metrics runners care most about.

Not the worst but also not the greatest. Their is not warm up and cool down walks inside the training program. When it gets to the end of the interval tubs she continues talking and goes to the next week's run. When opening the app you have to navigate back to the training program you have been working on. Definitely room for improvement.

The latest update established 60 notifications per day. So the app internally decided that the best way to use this was to use all 60 notifications every day - which meant that it was sending notifications every few seconds during activity. So annoying! I disabled all notifications for the app. Overall, this app is becoming less and less functional.

I'm really torn about my rating as I have been using this app for almost 10 yrs now. There are so many wonderful things about the app, but I don't have space to write it out. I moved to the paid plan from the free plan. I paid for the annual plan last year 2x and had a refund for 1; when my subscription actually ran out, I paid for an annual plan again. I submitted a request to customer service and had an initial fast response, but nothing since and no resolution. I guess this is goodbye.

Wouldn't think over 10 years later I'd still be using this app. Tracks my "runs" 🤔 and walks...can also track weight and set run/walk/bike/swim distance, duration, or consistency goals. Another feature I'd thought I'd never use are the training plans. You'd be amazed at how much more they motivate you...PLUS you can still play your music while they chime in occasionally. When using the training plans (not all are free though 😶) it still tracks with your regular events.

Not the greatest at GPS tracking. I run the same mountain each week and the app doesn't always register the loop correctly. Unfortunately, the app doesn't allow you to manually fix the map so it's not accurate. On one jog, the app missed 1.5 miles. I'll still keep this app, but will be looking for another one which is more accurate (or at least editable).
