What app do you use?

I've been using Endomondo and was thinking of upgrading, so I thought it would be worth doing a bit of research before I spend any money.

what do you use? What's good and bad about it? Would you recommend it?

Thanks :)

I've used Endomondo Premium, but my subscription ran out and I haven't got round to renewing yet because I've been out through injury and also the price has increased by about 50% this year (I think I pay a different rate here and last year it seemed nice and cheap).

I've had a look at other options and I think that I might be able to get everything I would have upgraded for on Runkeeper without paying. The thing I most want is to be able to put in my own intervals.

I use run keeper (the free version) and it seems fine. Gives me a map, average pace, splits, time & distance, and elevation. I know you can ask it to tell you your time, distance and pace at whatever regular intervals you like, but not sure about setting up specific intervals.

I've used runkeeper and map my ....... whatever. I found both of them to be slitghty glitchey at times. Out of the two I'd chose runkeeper both have notifications for time and distance but you can set your own intervals on runkeeper. Dowlnload both and run them side by side when you're out.

I use Endomondo (free version) too and find it does all I need. I used to use MapMyRun but found it very inaccurate. Endomondo is much better.

I use Nike+ and it seems to give me the info I need. Mind you I am only on week 3 :)

RunKeeper for me (free version) only ever had one minor glitch with it and I like to look at my runs via their web site.

Yes, Runkeeper for me too. I found MMR to be a bit hit and miss, with not posting my runs mainly, although that might have been something to do with me...the only downside I have found with RK is that you can post your runs to FaceBook, but only friends who are users of RK can see them - not such a problem really I think non runners are not really interested anyway.

Thanks for all the advice. I haven't heard of Run Keeper so I will give it a go!
