## Review summary

Reviewers praise the app for its ease of use, map view, and useful walking metrics, including premium features like audio and long-term history. However, recurring issues include inaccurate distance measurements and detours, GPS drops with auto-start/stop problems, intrusive upgrade prompts, lack of manual edit capability for distances, and occasional history data loss. Overall, the app is attractive for simple tracking but reliability and onboarding friction limit its usefulness.

### Pros

- Map view visualizes your route and walk metrics
- Provides distance, time, and progress metrics for each walk
- Premium features add audio feedback and long-term history (weekly/monthly/yearly)
- Data is accessible and the front screen can be customized

### Cons

- Inaccurate and inconsistent distance measurements and routes (rogue detours, squiggly paths)
- GPS signal drops and auto-start/stop glitches that halt tracking
- Intrusive upsell prompts to upgrade and persistent ads with no easy close option
- Inability to manually edit or correct distance after a walk
- History data can skip days or be lost, reducing reliability
