Login now required - run data lost, app deleted – Runtastic Running Tracker PRO Review

Last update makes login now required. With no warning, previous run data is now behind authentication/signup and very frustrating. I just wish this was communicated before hand as it fundamentally changes the application and how it is used. Based on the support site (not helpful and "relevant" support pages were useless) and the responses to reviews, it's clear the drive here is to monetize and collect data. Deleting the app was a bummer, but still annoyed at not being able to get to my run history. That's not a "data integrity/security" issue - that's just bad product and community management.
Review by mostly real on Runtastic Running Tracker PRO.
