Useless without Elite Upgrade

Scott

I've been a runmeter user since 2013 or earlier. I upgraded to Elite in 2014 when it was a reasonable $ 4.99. Then, in 2017 I STILL upgraded to Elite when the priced doubled to $9.99. It's actually a great app, but without the Elite upgrade, it's pretty useless (to me, anyway). Here's why. I went for my first outside run in 2018 and didn't notice my Elite upgrade expired last week. I spent about 20 minutes trying to figure out what was wrong with my heart rate chest strap. It turns out you need ELITE to measure your heart rate. You're kidding right..? Nope. How about just measure your steps..? Still need Elite. I didn't take the time to detail everything you lose without ELITE but for me, if a running app can't track my heart rate or at least steps, I'll just switch back to my fitness band or use a HR watch with my chest strap.


Worth every penny

I have used several running apps over the past few years and this is by far the best one. It is easy to use, accurate, and reliable. I have an iPhone 6 paired with a 1st generation Apple Watch and this combo with RunMeter is great. Start the app on the phone and it automatically starts on the watch. It has so many configurations and captures so much data it amazes me, and I am a professional Data Scientist. I have my announcements set to tell me pace and cadence every 5 minutes and a full gambit of stuff every mile. It even works for interval training on the track. Get the pro version and you will not be disappointed.


Great Running App!

I’ve used Runmeter since 2011. Great app and extremely accurate on Marathon runs. Also, great customer service - they were able to restore my data history when my phone shut down.


Useless Watch Support

DaveyDave22

No stand alone watch support! You must have your phone with you to run this app. App works great on phone, useless watch integration. Would like a refund since I paid for the upgrade to use with my series 3 cellular watch. As I run exclusively with only my watch, this app is useless for me.


Great App

Works like magic. Been using it for years and it still amazes me!


All the tools I needed

I love this app. Fully customizable and allows parameters like distance intervals to be tracked instead of only time based like other apps.


Version fail

Chris Oakman

This version shuts down during runs and stops tracking, even when I leave it running in front. Useless. Past reviews: Encourages me to run more often and longer!


Must upgrade to use watch

Useless


GPS Troubles

Horrid software

It's hard to fault any one thing with this app, but I find that it is not accurately tracking my runs distance-wise. Every run is off by at least .1 miles. No runs have been longer than 3 miles. Can't recommend this app.


Disappointed

Jspeece

The iWatch app barely starts up. With the last update the screens have been thrown off and the pace metric no longer can keep the pace going.
