## Review summary

Users appreciate the charitable donation concept and motivational aspect, but the app is plagued by stability and data issues. Repeated crashes, inaccurate or lost mileage, login problems, and poor wearable/background tracking undermine its core value. A few users note intermittent improvements, but reliability and data integrity are the primary concerns that need urgent fixes.

### Pros

- Donations to charitable organizations are possible simply by walking or running.
- The app provides a motivational concept that encourages fitness and helping causes.
- Some users value the ability to collaborate with charities/NGOs during workouts.
- The idea is seen by some as a good or inspiring way to stay active and contribute.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes, instability, and data loss during or after workouts.
- Inaccurate or inconsistent mileage tracking, with miles disappearing, resetting to zero, or being double-counted.
- Login/sign-in problems and occasional inability to open the app or reset passwords.
- Unreliable or limited wearable/partner integrations (Garmin, Strava, Health Connect) and problematic background tracking.
- UI/UX glitches (e.g., signup button covering the screen, non-functional finish button) and other interface issues.
