Run logs

Post by Marietu3 »

Hi,
Wondering if the app keeps information in the run logs, like time and distance? I see where to delete the logs, but not how to open them. Do they open? Or is the whole log just the date and which run you did?
Thanks!

Hi,

Nope, it's just the date and the fact that you did it. We've considered adding GPS tracking to the app, but I think it can overcomplicate a process that should be as simple as possible when you're first starting out, especially as GPS can be unreliable in many areas (cities with many tall buildings, forests, etc.) and doesn't work on a treadmill.

Regards,

Matt

Far as I can tell this app doesn't track times and distance. But you can use the free version of Run Keeper to do that. I've been using both as I'm wanting to measure my progress more than just by competition of runs/weeks.
