Lots of Potential – Stridekick Review

I had high hopes for this app. I have friends who use a variety of trackers and this was gonna be the way we all compete. While we can all compete this app has some major shortcomings. -In Journey mode, they use a map to show your progress, but the map only shows your progress. That seems like it shoulda been a common sense add. -The app focuses too much on social features. I get the intent but for all thats lacking in the app It seems that attention could have been used elsewhere. -They allow you to win badges but only when you do challenges in the community (open to all). So challenges with friends mean nothing. This means that if you and your friends start a challenge and you win... The only place to see that is to open up that challenge. It does not track it on your profile. This app has soo much potential, but it seems the developers are more concerned with providing a Facebook like experience for a half-baked fitness app. BOTTOM LINE: If you want to run challenges between friends on multiple trackers, your options are limited and this is worth a shot, but go in with very low expectations or prepare to be underwhelmed. Hopefully it can only get better from here, I really want this app to be good.
