Creative Differences – Map My Run by Under Armour Review
I really enjoyed using this app for a number of years as I get on and off the pavement. I really tried to work with the app for my latest couch-5k training but it glitches so creatively and regularly that I need to find something less invasive and more in-the-background.
In the past two weeks the app:
- loses connection to my UA shoes during the run
- prematurely ended a training run (resetting an incorrect training run is its own headache)
- stops telling me my data during the run (“Your pace is __?__”)
- completely stops signaling via voice during the run (yes the headphones were still on)
Trying to troubleshoot these problems during a workout (and in the cold Oregon rain) sets me up with a bitter caution every time I turn on the app.
Any one of these bugs I can be cool with, but the frequency and variety in such a short period of time made me cancel my annual subscription and search for new apps.
I would give them one star but it was, as they say, a good run while it lasted.
