Problems, problems & more problems

When I first purchased this app it seemed to work OK. However, it stopped saving my data. It would be there, I would save it, but when I would go back to see the information it would be gone. I reported this and after a couple of weeks it seemed to have been fixed. However, it has started a new problem. I start the app at the beginning of my walk or run. It appears to be working. I lock the phone or waits until it auto locks, and when I get back from my run the app is not running and nothing has been recorded. I have reported the problem but to no avail. At this point I find this app totally useless. I am going to try another app.

Was a great app when I first purchased

The original version of this app was great: design was functional but not real pretty but it worked. Since we went to the "pretty" interface I cant read the information and worse, since then it has not once got the distance right. Walking the same routes it used to track perfectly now it fails miserably. Says my 3 mile hike is 5 miles (in clear view of satellites). Im looking for an alternative because this is now no more use to me than a timer.

Afraid to upgrade.

I lost all my data 2 releases ago. Ill stay where I am until I am convinced it works PERFECTLY.

Best app for our family!

This is my favorite app. We have three dogs and this app lets us track our walks perfectly. Watching the stats pushes me to walk more...the dogs love it!

Great for my walks

I use this app everyday with no problems, but I only use the timer/distance. It measures miles accurately. I cant rate other components yet.

Opening the app

Im having issues launching the app, any suggestions?

Love it

I love this app. NEVER have problems

Good not great

Usually does what I ask of it, keep track of distance and time Ive walked. It has dropped its tracking and/or reset itself about five out of 30 times. We arent launching The Shuttle or anything so its acceptable to me.

Love this app .. Helps me to be able to stay motivated , when I able to look back at my progress .. Thank you

Worst Ever

The free version worked perfectly...this version is worthless. It crashes 95% of the time...loses all data...doesnt track distance correctly (same route 3 times in clear satellite view with significantly different distances)...dont waste your money!

iOS 6.0

This ap does not work properly with IOS 6.0.

Doesnt work with Facebook

For some reason, it doesnt always post the routes I ran. Even if it does, the link to Google Map doesnt work.

The ABSOLUTE Worst!

Used to work somewhat well but since their last couple updates, crashes all the time, all data lost! HORRIBLE app, RUN dont walk away from this!!! Gave it one star because it doesnt have any options less. It is GARBAGE!

Quite unreliable but nice features.

Walk Watch has nice features but it stops monitoring and loses the route. The developers have to resolve this fault.

Used to be a good app

I used to be very happy with this app. With the latest update, I have about a 50/50 chance the app will quit mid route and nothing will have been recorded. I wish theyd release a bug fix, or Ill have to find another app.

Not what I hoped for!!

I really liked the free version of this app, and then I made the mistake of buying the update. I have yet to be able to track any walk at all. No GPS function at all. My advice: find a different app.

Buy if you want to be frustrated!

Feeling good an ready for a walk, grab your iPhone with this app and your off, only to return to find that when you launch and started the program, it never started. So there you are no data no nothing, your screwed. What a joke!

Walk Watch

The concept is great but totally unreliable. I have used, or attempted to use, this for my daily walks now for several months and it has worked only half the time. Still no updates so beware if you are serious about tracking, this is not the app you want.

Unreliable

Like most of these reviews I am not satisfied with this app. Half the time it does not properly record the distance or calories burned or ft climbed or ave. speed and it absolutely WILL NOT talk to Facebook. Oh and app developers will respond to emails and polite questions about as good as this app works with Facebook! Which is NEVER!! Sad because this app has the potential to be really good!!!

Unreliable

Like others have stated, this app seems to have become more unreliable recently. Used to use it without many glitches. Now the distances are very inconsistent. All the data Ive saved this week has gone on to the March calendar, even though it is May. When I go back to check the data the date is correct. Frustrating since it used to work well.
