The first time the app is started it will ask for permission to use the GPS while using the app.
The app works in the background so you can turn off the screen to save battery, knowing that the app will still keep track of your activity.
NOTICES:
* This application uses background location. Continued use of GPS in the background can decrease battery life.
* The Health App integration is off by default. Go to settings within the LogYourRun app to turn on Health App integration.
Latest reviews of LogYourRun GPS - Running and Workout Tracker app for iPhone and iPad
Im still getting to know this app. I feel its not as intuitive as could be, at least for me. Every time I go to this app it tells me I can connect Bluetooth- I got that the first time and its annoying to click through each time. Ill keep using this to see my running speed. Im probably blaming this app because Im not running faster.
All I wanted was an app that would log and graph my cardio activity. This program allows you to log your activity but does not give you cumulative graphs or average weekly data. Plus it makes you hit lots of unnecessary buttons just to log a few pieces of data. And if you turn off the geolocation function and motion function annoying reminders keep popping up reminding you that you turned these off. Will be looking for a simpler, free program and will probably just transfer my information to a spreadsheet and making my own program.
The app has be great for me for the past 3 years. Suddenly however, it started crashing when I tried to update my shoes. The only fix was to reinstall the app. Now its great again. Ive been using for over three years and I will keep using it.
I previously gave the new version of log your run a bad review. I have to admit that Ive now gotten used to the new functions, and it appears prior bugs have been fixed. I use it daily and have grown to like it. I would recommend this app to any runner/biker.
I have use this app for quite a few years and I have had no problems. That was until I updated my phone to the new iOS nine. Yeah wont run in the background. Unfortunately you dont discover this to you start to track your exercise activity and halfway through your routine you realize youre not being monitored anymore. Very upset and disappointed. I hope they find a fix for this.
