The phone apps are all as bad as one another, I gather, with only the dedicated GPS devices, such as Garmin etc, giving better results. I stick with Runkeeper (free) because it offers intervals. Stand still to get a fix before you set off on your run, it can take a couple of minutes. I gave up waiting yesterday because I know the length of my route and was only interested in the overall time. If you have lots of overhanging trees or indeed tall buildings, you may have difficulties, even with a dedicated GPS device.
