Can you recommend a running phone app please

I ran my longest distance yesterday 7.5k and endomondo app only recorded 2k - felt like throwing it in the lake!!!
Is there a more reliable app?


Thankyou

RunKeeper always worked best for me.

[StillNoFuckingEyeDeer]

I love RunKeeper.

[StillNoFuckingEyeDeer]

Just thought I'd check RunKeeper's reliability - I've done almost 200 runs using RunKeeper and had 4 where the GPS messed up (over-calculating my distance every time, never under-estimating for some reason)
I don't know how accurate MapMyRun is, but that's good too.
Both are free.

Mapmyride is pretty good, so I'm guessing their Run app is good too.

Thank you
Have uploaded run keeper .. Gutted that I won't be able to see the improvements from when I could only run 2 mins to when I did 60mins yesterday! Oh well I will survive!!

Mapmyrun/GPS has lost me a couple of times too, but it's what I use. Did Race for Life 10k which it had as 10.06km which isn't a bad error rate.

You can also log other activities, such as swims, and use it for cycle rides to get a more complete idea of your physical exertions.

Lorna Jane seems more accurate than runkeeper with my runs

[chocolatespiders]

Not heard of that sweet- will have a look now

I've got runtastic. It's been great until today where it decided I'd run 1.9 miles in 3 minutes! I thought about phoning the Guinness book of records

[chocolatespiders]

Ha ha

Endomondo tracked my run once and it included various bits of walking on water across the lake I was running around

[Fridayschild]

Runkeeper. it is more accurate if you turn the wifi off on your phone.

Before I did that it used to get all confused round my office , to the extent it told me I had run a mile in 4.38 minutes... I could train for years and not get a time like that

[BigStyleee]

I use Strava - love it.

[knitcorner]

Karrimor have a free one that I've downloaded (but not yet used)

[StillNoFuckingEyeDeer]

Thanks for the tip, Fridayschild

[chocolatespiders]

That Friday thats good to know.
I managed to track a whole 5.97 k last night so I am happy with runkeeper
