Hi can anyone recommend a good running app? I was really dissapointed this morning to run for half and hour and for the app to say it was only 0.7 miles (i know I'm not that slow!).

Soooo I'm looking for a good app for my Samsung, preferably one with voice prompts.

    Try RunKeeper. It is free and I believe it syncs with MFP as well.

    I've been using Runkeeper and MFP together for 2+ years now. You can adjust what "prompts" you want. If you're doing intervals, you can have it prompt you for either distance or time (ex. .25 mi fast, .25 mi slow or 2 min fast, 1 min slow, etc...). Or you can do what I do and have it just give you splits. I have mine set for every 0.25 miles, but you can do whatever and it will tell you any or all of speed/pace/distance/avg speed/avg pace.

    I like Mapmyrun, the GPS seems accurate in my neighborhood, and I can record the yoga classes in there. I use the free version.

    Strava is pretty much on point.

    I've tried most of them and I keep going back to Strava, with Endomondo a close second. The only 2 reasons I prefer Strava to Endomondo is the Strava Segments and the Suffer Score.

    I like MapMyFitness. It links with MFP and it will track all fitness activities. I use it for walking, running and cycling. It is fairly accurate.

    I've tried Runkeeper, Endomondo, MapMyFitness, and even just manually logging exercise here. My favorite by far is Strava. My cycling friends got me onto it, and I've now even upgraded to premium. Syncs with my Garmin running watch and MFP. No complaints

    I like the Nike running app a lot. The Interface seems simple to me and that's what I want when I'm running.
