ANNOYED!

8 Replies

Just come bac from my run, the first time using endomondo. Set all the options including activating gps. Just come bac all excited to see how far I ran. It only showed the time (49 mins) but nothing else! Anyone know why?

That's odd. I've only had a couple of occasions when it's got lost, and each time it showed a distance, albeit wrong! I'd be inclined to test it with a walk round the block, make sure it tells you it has a GPS signal before you start. See what it does...

I don't use Endomondo but Runtastic, does it have a settings bit to go into to activate all the add ons, like Map, altitude, split times etc.?

I did this!! Annoying or what! Have you got the GPS on your phone on? I get a little dish satellite sign on the menu next to my signal strength when I go into the Endomondo and on the workout screen of Endomondo it will say 'locating GPS' and then when found an indication of the signal strength - 'GPS excellent' Good luck.

Endomondo! have more or less given up using the app because of incorrect stats (like a distance I know to be 2 miles, for example and Endomondo records it at 1.2 miles) Have switched to Runkeeper and like the stats streaming into my ear.

I tried to download Endomondo onto my Ipod Touch yesterday. It is supposed to be compatable. Kept telling me it had no GPS I even switch the darn thing on, still wouldn't work. So I downloaded the App into my library, then tried to Sync it that way. It just will not work, so I'm inclined to think 'its naff' I'm sticking to Runtastic, its does what it says it will do.
