I have been using Cardio Trainer (for distance, time, speed, and calories burned) but the distance seems inconsistent.

Any good running app recommendations?

    If Noom is still available it is pretty good and is free, free, free. I liked it, but needed room on the phone, so had to uninstall it.

    I love RunKeeper...it uses GPS, tracks your mph, your route, everything!

    MapMyRun is also good, but I prefer RunKeeper

    Try Endomondo - it's free, can be used for lots of sports/exercise and has a nice website. Calorie calculation appears to be on a par with MFP.

    I use "My Tracks" which is OK... my friends us endomondo, which I haven't used yet, but they rave about.

    endomondo and runkeeper are the 2 that i have used :)

    But i guess it also depends on how good the gps on your phone is with these apps as thats what they rely on

    RunDouble. It's a C25K-like app! Love it! Nominal fee but worth it to me!

    I use Endomondo. Works great on my android phone. Plays music, gives interval times at each mile, tracks your history. This one has everything I need...and it's free!

    I just researched a little between MapMyRun and Endomondo and I found that MapMyRun tends to really drain your battery. I'm going to try Endomondo out and see what it's like.

    I like Endomondo for running, biking, hiking and pretty much any activity.

    i love endomondo but lately it's been giving me trouble especially picking up a satellite. so I put trackerbooster on my phone as well, turn that on first and it works fine.

    i know a lot of people use runkeeper and mapmyrun as well, i'm sure they are fine.
