Android Runkeeper broken???

I haven't used Runkeeper for a few weeks - and there has been some updates during that time -- but today when I went to use it once more, I can see that it no longer gives choices for distance cues. I used to have it set out to tell my my average pace every 250 metres but can't seem to set it like that now.

Anybody else??

Hi Bazza.

I didn't know this option existed so have just had a look. It's there under settings (the gear wheel thingy), then audio cues, then distance trigger and you then get a choice of distances.

So unless your version has had some random updates that mine hasn't, it should be there....

But thanks for asking the question because I've now found a whole load of different settings I can play with :)

Yes - I can still setup a distance "trigger" and set up the repeats eg 0.25 klm or 0.5 klm, etc -- BUT below that you can set it up for it to tell you what parameters you want to know about . Usually here there is a check box alongside the different parameters and you can select whichever one you want to hear about -- but the check boxes are gone!!! :(

How weird. I have a whole list of audio cues to choose from - time, distance, average pace, average speed, etc, under where I would choose the distance trigger.

Don't know what's going on with your version!

I have version 5.3.5.

Yes -- you have one place to select the "trigger" - time or distance and variations of time or distance.

BUT - under that you then have the choice of what parameters you want Runkeeper to tell you when it uses a "trigger" - you can/could select things like average pace, speed etc by clicking on a check box alongside each parameter . I still have the parameters - but no check boxes alongside them

Curiouser and curiouser (said Alice).

I have checkboxes and they work.

Perhaps you need to reboot your phone? Or uninstall and reinstall runkeeper???

No idea what else to suggest, sorry :(
