Whats happened to Runtastic??!

Ive used this app for several years with great success. Last year I upgraded to the premium but never really used it through the year so didnt renew and went back to the regular app. Since then I have nothing but weird issues. It keeps having me sign back in when I want to cheer on a fiend. Ill get notifications that a fiend is running but then cant find them etc etc..
that along with several other issues! What the heck??
