Routie ~ GPS sports tracker 앱 리뷰

Love Routi

I enjoy making designs with the tracking while I track my workouts

Great Route Support

I use it every opportunity and gives some much details to my presentations and now with photos makes even better thanks.

GPS is great Apple Watch Heart rate Pairing is not

I use the app for kayaking and it’s great getting the statistics and route information, but when I try to pair the health settings with my gen 5 Apple Watch the app crashes.

Apple Watch use requires iPhone!!!!

Disappointed to find out after purchase that Apple Watch support requires iPhone nearby....oh well! This was mentioned in another user’s review, but I missed seeing it before purchase...wanted to put this review out there to make it very clear that this is the case! Will be requesting refund.....

Outstanding

Accurate and easy. I’ve looked, and purchased several tracking apps and this one has worked and is the best so far.

So easy to turn on, finish, and forget about.

Then an hour later, it tells you your distance so far. This could be solved if Easily by allowing me to trim the route. Or at the very least sending a notification after a short amount of time inactivity. I would also like for it to give average speed with the option to exclude my top speeds. Including the extremes screws up the data. Also, every run or walk, the speed through out is very jagged even though I’m pretty sure I was going the same speed at least for some portions.

Clean, Simple, Effective

A great app! It does what it supposed to and in a way that is simple and intuitive to use. The things you need are always within reach or view and the things that you don't need, aren't. It is very clear that the developer cared deeply and gave much thought to how these features should work and be presented properly.

Yaktrack

Awesome app , exactly what I was looking for !! Hunting ,fishing , kayaking.

You must have you phone with you for it to work.

While I like the features of this app, it's Apple Watch integration requires your phone to be present to function. While this isn't necessarily a "complaint", (many other apps require phone presence--some, like RunKeeper, don't) it would have been nice to know in advance of purchase. Hence my review--to let others know.

Just what I was looking for! It's almost perfect!

I love this app. It's almost perfect! It tracks whatever kind of activity you're into. For me, I'll be using it for kayaking, walking, motorcycling and bicycling. I love the fact there are icons for each category. The app works in the background while your screen is off, which is great for saving battery life. The tracking is very accurate. Taking photos and pinning them along your route is genius and I love that you can upload your adventure to Facebook with a single click. Here are my suggestions to make the app even better: 1) Have a way to show GPS coorinates. (Live and saved) 2) Allow scrolling between photos within the same route. (Instead of having to open one at a time.) 3) Upload the map route to Facebook and also allow user notes before posting. 4) On the details page, create a new line showing 'duration' and 'paused' stats without having to click on 'Distance' and 'Moving' stats to view them. - Also dress this page up some.

Needs fixing

For the third time in two weeks I have recorded a paddle with the app and save it only to go back and look at the saved records and everything is gone. It's getting old and the app has an obvious issue. Please take a look and make a fix. Once there's a fix in place and the app works as advertised I will gladly review it again. Until then it's not what I paid for.

Great app

Works well on IOS and Pebble

Great activity tracker

Things that make this app stand out against other activity trackers: 1. Import photos taken from the camera app (think lockscreen) and integrate them directly into the route map. 2. Scroll through the graphs as it relates to the map so you can see where on the route you slowed down or sped up or the elevation was the lowest. 3. Quick start and quick stop with practically automatic sharing. Two clicks and it's on Facebook and/or Twitter. 4. The sharing is actually really neat. Routie uploads your track with map and details to a website with the pictures you took along the way. Oh and the pictures are pinned on the map to where you took them.

Like it

August 2016: Just want to say: I still love this app. 5 stars. I've deleted many tracking & fitness apps; I'm patient & give things a good trial--but Routie is one I am never tempted to delete! I've used it cycling, kayaking, walking, hiking, running-- as I said before, it just works, and beautifully. I even run it simultaneously with other apps I'm playing around with-- 'cause it won't let me down if a new one bugs out. Like that it is not wedded to social media as any requirement. Yet if in the mood to share an event, it's simple to share to friends, or Facebook, etc., it's your choice. I find that altitude, & 'moving time' tracking is possibly more accurate than 'Ride With GPS' which I also use when ride promoters require it as their only route map offering for a particular event. That app good for route creating & performance auditing, a good but busier app that understandably costs more. But Routie has a prominent place in the app stable! --My initial (still pertains) March 2015 review: Turning to Routie every time I want track an activity now. Great graphs for fun review of my routes. Good pick list for various activities. Start it, it just works. Can take photos en route, they get pinned to course map. Like it better than Map My Run/Bike etc. Prefer it over WeatherRun. It works well with Pebble Watch; as soon as I hit 'start' on the Routie App, the data starts up on the watch, with no action required on my part. (Other than initial permission after download & set-up of Routie.)

really, really well designed app for just about any activity!

Routie is excellent! It's obvious a lot of work went into creating it as there are a feast of features, all clearly accessible and easy to use, but you can also disable anything you don't want/need. So, it's as comprehensive or as simple a tracking app as you'll find. Maps are clear and easy to read when on the move, plus have great details like foot trails in recreation areas and coastal shoreline landmarks. You can save a plethora of information about each track you create. Works with other devices (Watch, Pebble, heart rate monitors), integrates with Apple's Health, provides audible feedback (speed, time, distance, even altituded if device is capable) during session if you want. Good stuff!

Great for Kayaking

This app does exactly what I wanted to track my kayaking trails. I saw a previous review stating "waste of money for kayaking," but I decided to try it anyway, since the screenshots and description fit what I wanted perfectly. I'm glad I did. It maps my trail, and has a setting to automatically exclude the time I am not moving - such as getting ready to launch or once I've beached at the end. This gives me time to put my phone in its dry box, get ready to launch etc, without damaging my average speed time. Love that! It keeps constant track of my speed, and can display it on a graph that I can scroll through to see all my highs and lows. My pause points are recorded as well. It records distance, time, average speed and maximum speed - everything I wanted. It does NOT record stroke count, so maybe that's why the other review was negative. I don't care about stroke count - I just want how fast and far I went, with a neat map and graphs, and this app delivers. I tried Motion X, but found it confusing to use, and half the data such as average speed was not even calculating. This app replaced Motion X, as well as Runkeeper and Map My Hike on my phone. Everything on this app is working. It's a say to use and well thought out. I couldn't be happier. This will also be my go-to app for hiking, as it also tracks altitude (which I shut off for kayaking). Overall, awesome job. Well with the $4.99.

Best app for tracking any activity

Been using this app for the past year for all outdoor activities: hiking, biking, paddling. Have found it to be easy and accurate. Love that it is just what it is -- with no social media. The photo option works great too. Love this app.

Not for kayaking

Waste of money for kayakers.

Unable to download latest update

App refuses to download. It appears to download correctly until the very end when the download fails. The developer needs to correct this problem.

No worries about being tracked

Update (****): I was initially concerned with the Always On tracking, but after talking to the developer I am quite satisfied that is not being abused. In fact I would say based on what I've learned that I'm excited to use this product and support the developer. My last star is only reserved for after my next mountain bike ride. Original Review (*): It's a real shame the only tracking options are always or never as opposed to most apps that allow you to only be tracked when you're using the app.

Best tracking app EVER!!!!

Nov 30: I have yet to have a problem. I have used this in many areas and it has yet to lose gps tracking. I absolutely love this app and I love that it helps keep me motivated! I highly recommend this to every one looking for an awesome app!! I hope it never changes. The anti-clutter and not running on social media is still the best parts :-) Oct 22: still loving this app. No problems, yet. Honestly, I would pay for this app especially if it stays exactly the same! I love this app and I keep recommending it to people I see :-D Edit: months later and I still love this app. It's the only one that keeps me motivated because it is simple and easy to use. I still highly recommend this app!!!! I've used many tracking apps including mapmyrun. This Routie app is way better. Never I repeat, never drops signal, doesn't mess with my music player, doesn't change things on me or any problems. If you are serious about tracking your walks, runs, bike rides and such, this is probably the app for you. And the recent update even added in coaching if you want it. I also love that this app is not run by social media. I thank you so much for that. I hope this app stays this wonderful!!! Thanks for making an awesome tracker app!!!

Plumber

Great app.

Very happy because very simple.

It does what I want with very little effort and doesn't annoy the crap out of me doing stuff I never asked it to do.

It's great!

Simple. Lots of good info. But it seemed to confuse navigation.

Great app

Works nicely worth every penny

Very Rewarding

I have used a number of cycling Apps and Routie is the best. It seems like all the other's are just trying to generate revenue off you. Routie offers a tool that gives you general ride stat's, speed and climb in an easy and efficient tool.

Great App!

Everything that 'Heads I Win' said x2! Always keeps a lock on the GPS signal, non-intrusive, and I especially love that it is not Social Media driven! Keep up the good work!

Love

Awesome app!!!

Luv It

I'm a new biker & used regularly to recap my rides!!

Great workout app!

I use this App every time I work out! Love it

Exactly what I've been looking for

I use this most often for kayaking in puget sound. I can't wait to use it mountaineering in the Olympics this year!! Super simple interface and a spot on apple watch app. All you have to to do is press start and go, your trip flow is never interrupted. I recommend this app to any outdoorsman/woman.

Great App!

I love using Routie, accurate and reliable tracking of all my rides!

AWESOME APP

This app is really cool and it is one I the few real apps on my phone that I use. I love tracking my routes and mileage on my phone. it is very accurate and it has a lot if details including elevation and speed. it is really helpful as I am training for both a sprint distance triathlon and a half marathon. I would definitely recommend it to my friends!!!!

Easy to use with nicely laid out info

I really like the graphs of speed and altitude with the pin showing where on the route it was happening. The voice coaching is great, a very useful feature. Having photos automatically attached to the route is great. There are no subscriptions, it just works. And the developer responds to questions and feature requests. I definitely recommend this app. This is my go to tracking app.

Great App

Very nice.

Best biking app!

Every other app like this requires a monthly subscription... Routie does not! Not only that, it does all the things the subscription services do... except better. Hope they add HealthKit integration in the future!

Awesome sports gps app

This is hands down the best sports gps app on the market and is a total bargain. It outperforms all other sports tracking apps I have used in the past. I love that it can be used for water sports too like kayaking or rowing! Fantastic!

Great app

Love that it will run in the background.

Simple, easy to use, highly recommended

I surveyed a number of sports GPS apps, and the general theme is bloatware. All I want is a GPS tracker from which I can post maps of my canoe trip or bike ride onto Facebook - which I find to be a great motivation to get out there. Maybe take some pics and post these along the mapped route. Routie is clean, simple, and gets the job done without a fuss. No need to set up an account (the app does it itself for hosting data from your trips), no monthly subscriptions, no IAPs, no complex configuring or set-up. Simple is good, and this app fits the bill.

Great app but still can be better

I love this app. It's a great app. One feature I would like to have is the ability to pause and edit your route. Sometime you want to edit out certain part of the trip.

Fantastic app

This is my favorite activity tracker. Easy to use and nice interface.

Well designed app

Great app. Works well for tracking my runs. I like the history feature where you can swipe your finger along the speed or altitude time history bar to see where on your track you were at that time. Two things I wish the app had (hence 4 stars not 5): a way to display speed in minutes-per-mile instead of mph or kph, and a way to disable the app from asking about importing/exporting to photo roll. I find it annoying that when I want to check how far I ran, I need to click on recurring pop up windows asking me to import photos.

Great App!

I love routie. Use it for hiking and walking. Definitely keeps me motivated.

Great App

I was able to get this app while it was free. I'm not sure if you have to pay for it now or not but if so, it is definitely worth it! It is a very convenient app to track my runs and it is easy to navigate within the app and very straightforward.

Pebble Steel Intergrated.

Love this app! Beautiful design that fits beautifully with iOS 8 on the iPhone 6 Plus. Love the functions, easy to use. It syncs with my Pebble Steel smartwatch and I can adjust the metrics, start/stop the exercise from the watch. Replacement for my Fitbit.

excellent

routie tracks all the stats that i need on my daily morning runs. i would recommend it to everybody.

Excellent

Well-designed app, easy to use, good looking. Does what I want and does it well. I complained in an earlier review about something, and the developer fixed it within days of my review. Awesome.

Fantastic App for runners and bikers

I use this app every time I go for a run or bike ride. It does a great job keeping track of my route, speed and elevation. It helps me to look back and see how I am improving over time. I highly recommend it!

Very accurate and helpful

Try picking one of your routes and then hit speed or altitude. Then swipe your finger from left to right and you can watch your route. It's pretty fun!
