I love this program. Would give it 5 stars BUT - they eliminated voice coach for everything except running. Despite the flaw, it is a great fitness app.

Effective and easy to use app!
Does anyone at Runtastic actually own an Apple Watch and use it with their app? 1) Sometimes I will force press the Watch screen to display the "Pause/Finish" icons and the Watch will freeze, forcing me to go to my iPhone to complete things. 2) Other times the force press will display the "Pause/Finish" icons...TWO SETS OF THEM! WTHeck! 3) Even though I have Auto-Pause ON in settings, the app wont auto-pause. I just stood absolutely still for 3+ minutes after a run and the app never paused. WTHeck!!! 4) Still no indoor cycling option using a resistance trainer like a Kinetic. I have my touring bike on an indoor trainer. Not having this basic exercise as an option (its not on Runtastics bike app either) is a bummer and is honesty, puzzling. There is an exercise option called "Ergometer." It has a picture of what looks like an indoor bike. It have tried it. BUT its algorithm generates calorie totals about twice as much as it should. So, I have to assume this device is not a standard indoor bicycle. 5) In defense of Runtastic Pro, it IS able to read heart rate data from the Apple Watch and display it on the exercise screen. Kudos to Runtastic for providing this critical functionality to Apple Watch users. I was torn on how many stars to give the app. Because I use it almost exclusively with the Apple Watch and because of the problems mentioned above, 3 stars is generous. But I WILL update my review if the issues above are addressed.
Works well with my Jabra Smart Pulse Bluetooth Earbuds. Easy to set up and the voice coaching is a great motivator to keep going!
Runtstic does a great job of keeping statistics on my walks.
Great app.... easy to use
Ive used Runtastic for 3 years now and cant imagine running without it. The voice coach is a great feature and the maps are always spot on. Try this app first and youll never have to find another.
This app is fantastic! Shows map tracking, pauses when I do and gives summaries as I go. Love it!!!
Ive been using this app for a long time now & after my first time I immediately upgraded!! Its just that good. Dont use my Garmin anymore because this just works better! Thanks for creating such a great exercise app!!
Still waiting to hear back from customer service... I sent an email two months ago to customer service and Im still waiting to hear back from them. Where did my distance go?? It used to be visible as I was using GPS. Then one upgrade it just disappeared... if you want me to spend more money to get the distance feature back, just tell me. Otherwise, Ill keep rating the app as low as possible.
All the features are perfect and its the best running app Ive used. Keep up the great work!
I love this app it has made a big difference for me. Keeps me going sinks with my fitness pal ;)
Happy that this app will measure and record heart rate without requiring a subscription. Wish it did the giveaways like Map My Run as rewards for using it.
Terrible app. Exceptionally buggy, and its almost like a game to see if it decides to work each day. If it does, chances are a feature or two wont.
Im a new runner (less than 1 year), and I upgraded to Runtastic once I was able to regularly run a 5k using the one of the trainer apps for "couch potatoes". Runtastic has all the features I need and lets me set my own goals. I expect to be using it for a long time.
I came to this app with great expectations. I suppose for the modestly active, intent to track out-of-the-box activities, this would work. The UI looks really nice. But the requirement to toggle to various inputs for activities seems unnecessary, and makes logging activities rather time consuming. Its also missing some pretty standard activities, like the stair climber, or circuit training. All in, you could do better.
Very user friendly an helpful.
The whole bundle is like integrated apps feeds together and give results together
I have used a few different GPS apps to track my running and find Runtastic the easiest and most reliable of the bunch. Great support too.
Use it everywhere
