GPS

Hello,
Can you tell me if there is a gps app you can use while using the get running app? Thankyou!

I use RunKeeper which works really well - turn the gps app on first though as Claire on the get running app has got grumpy with me a few times and paused on me when I've done it the other way round. It makes for some very long intervals :)

I am also using RunKeeper. I turned off all the voices in the background of the app, though, as somehow the music I put on (and very much need to keep on running!) stopped completely every time the voice on RunKeeper was saying something (so basically every 5 minutes).

I have not experienced Claire to get grumpy from turning on GetRunning before RunKeeper, though.

When I take my runs outdoors, I use Nike+ Running. It used to be called Nike+ GPS but they changed the name for some reason. Never had any trouble with it, the GPS was quite accurate and it worked nicely with Get Running.
