Running apps - which one?

tostaky · February 2015

i was using endomondo pro until i did a 10k and my phone said i did 11.6k.
I tried runkeeper but the km seems to be off as well... But in a different way as endomondo. Maybe it is my phone although i have had it only for a month (iphone6).
Anyway, i really like all the stats from runkeeper and aso the fartlek training sessions whereas in endomondo the training is much more km-based and there are less stats. However, i like the reminders from endomondo better and a few things as well... Is there an app that combine the best of both world?
I am assuming a running watch would solve my gps problem + give me lots of stats. Are they expensive? How much roughly (uk) and which one is better? (Dont want heart monitor). thanks!!

Strava seems to be popular...

I've used both Endomondo and Runtastic (Pro-versions). I really like Runtastic and the added features. FYI - All phone apps are dependent on your cell phone reception (data) & GPS. They will never be the same as the "chip" you get when running in a race.

I do like Runkeeper, and over the 3 years I've used it, I have never had any issues that speaking to their tech support hasn't fixed. For example once it told me I ran 26km in 40minutes, which I would suspect was a LITTLE optimistic... But I deleted the app and reinstalled it, and it worked fine after that.

I don't use a running app but a friend of mine uses map my run and likes it a lot. I have a gps watch Garmin Forerunner 210. I love it and really would be lost without it. It was sort of pricey. It ranges any where to $140-170 (us) not sure of the conversion.
