Running apps - indoors

I’ve been using Nike Run club app to capture my time and distance since graduating. But I found it wasn’t completely accurate compared to the treadmill.

At 38 minutes, the Nike Run club said it was 5k but on the treadmill was 2.7 miles.

Any recommendation on apps that are better suited to indoors?

Run two treadmills and I’d pretty much guarantee they don’t read the same distance!

Just like outdoors apps are dependent on readings from your device. If you trust the treadmill, delete the run on Nike and add a run in manually.

Good point. It didn’t occur to me treadmill could be different depending on which you use.

I was trying to gather few apps that I could test.
