Who uses Runkeeper please?

8 Replies

Just back from a run, a good one too, and I can see my run on my phone, but it won't upload to the Runkeeper site so I can have a good look at it - any ideas? I pressed save and have a good internet connection....please help an elderly technophobe lol!

I use runkeeper, and mine sometimes does that as well. If you go to the activity details on your phone (click "me" at the bottom, select "activities", select the run) and press "options" in the top right hand corner, then there will be the option to "resend to runkeeper.com". That normally solves the issue for me.

Thanks for the advice Tomas, I think Runkeeper is having a little "moment"! It wouldn't let me update to their site, not yet anyway, but it did let me post it on FaceBook which is nearly as good! I've just done my first 5K non-stop, wanted to see how I did!

And now it's there on RunKeeper too.

It sometimes takes a while. Keep in mind, it isnt going from app to app, like you might go from one village to the next by foot or car. It is going into the servers of one company, and back out again to the servers of the other. Like when you have to take a bus or train into the nearest city center and back out to another village. Just like the roadways, the internet has traffic delays.

You're one step ahead of me, Curlygurly. I've tried a dozen times to get it to post to facebook, but all without success. So I've given up on that feature-ette :)

Tomas, from your phone you press a symbol top right that looks a bit like this - <

In the app on your computer you press the one that looks like an upside down V. The problem I've found is that the post on FB is only "live" for RunKeeper users...That's ok for me, I want to see for myself, don't mind too much if others can't see it.

Thanks Curlygurly, I'll give that a go. And I know what you mean about others seeing it - I guess even good friends can tire of seeing yet another update about yet another run :)
