Runtastic Road Bike Tracker

first time I used, it worked very well. then, I tried to used about 4 or 5 times, and all the times the app count an inaccurate mileage (kilometers where I live). u don't use the premium version and I really hope this isn't the reason of this ridiculous issue. please someone answer me. I really want to use it, but like it is, I can't even think to buy the premium version.

I commute 14+ miles a day 5 days a week, and often kick out the jams to make it a good workout. I used to use cardio trainer, and I liked the simplicity and layout of the app. However, I got a new phone and found that all my data would not transfer. Support from CT was nil. I find runtastic road bike to be an improvement. Well done. Nice design and performance.

The app recorded my bike ride as 8.93 miles, but my Sigma bike computer recorded 15.18 miles. My car confirmed 15.18 miles.

This is a good app. It is very accurate in tracking the length and route of my bike rides. However the calories burned is extremely inaccurate. My fitbit usually shows a 200 to 400 less caloric difference. So don't get too dependent on the calorie count otherwise you will be lying to yourself

Was elated to see distance of 37.88km ride before tail-end of biking. However, upon completion, recorded as 0.64kms in 2hr 19mins ! Oh my, where are my earlier recorded distance ! My second recordings which went wrong. Could have rated above 3 even 5 if not for these errors recorded..

1st 2 rides failed to go through the countdown and even start. 3rd ride I waited for the seconds to countdown and it actually start. Road my mountain bike 42 miles, longest ride so far. It recorded the time, 4.00hrs on the dot but nothing else.

Free version doesn't always let you stop the timer when you are done. Which then when it finally stops the readings from your riding are incorrect. I understand that i have the free version that has absolutely no features and thats fine, but locking out the core of the app is a great way to keep me from buying it

I have used this app just once on a test ride to see if it works or not. I haven't really given it a proper work out yet, but already I see that it really does not do what I wished it to do and that is to allow me to install the map layout on my website. However, I was entertained by the voice over every 1 km. When I got home and checked, all was in order. The question I ask myself is, do I need this because I have a reliable computer on my bike from Sigma that logs everything apart from the rout that I have ridden and that is what I really needed for my website. This is why only after a test ride I give it 3 Stars.

App gets closed randomly. I made 40km ride only to see that it sums up 5km.in straight lines. Voice support goes off after 3km. You don't want to go on a long ride with this app

My first ride it started off good the first couple of miles and was telling me my speeds but, after that it was quiet. I normally do a ten mile bike three times a week and used mapmyfitness which was great while it showed me the average speed per mile in a graph but, it recently stopped showing the graph with the avg mph per mile and it wanted me to become a premium member to see everything. The Runtastic I was hoping to replace that app because it looked similar but, I had issues with it. I know the where about points on the bike trail that my old app would tell me the mileage and it was right before the painted mile markers on the ground. This app was way off by at least a 1/4 of a mile. Maybe there is a way to calibrate it. I will check and report back if there is. I liked that you could choice a voice to coach you. I was hoping there was a voice for Arnold but, there wasn't. He would of got me pumped up. I hope they fixed the distance measuring issue. This app will be killer if they do. I will try it on the next update and see if they improved it. 3 stars for now.

I ran two apps together, Strava and Runtastic, during my ride today. Surprisingly, both apps recorded widely different data for the same ride and guess what both were found to be way off the mark when I manually calculated the time, distance, speed using a stopwatch/chronograph since route distance was pre determined.

I've been on quite a few 10-30mi. rides in the past two weeks while using this app. The distances/speeds seem to be correct but the routes that the app mapped out for each ride were very inaccurate. Please look into this. Aside from that I enjoy the interface and everything else about the app, might upgrade...

Great idea. Not a big biker-do it for exercise and build up muscles. But it didn't register my complete trip, which is disappointing. Had it in a back pack-maybe that's why. But if that's the case, it's not for me. Will look for something else. So in a nut shell, it didn't do what it said it would.

It tracked my ride great. The only thing I don't like about it is that it said I only burned 241 calories on a 14 mile ride. On other apps I've had installed the calories count was up around 700. I wish one of these apps could get everything right. They all have one thing wrong with them.

The way to my work is 10 km all down, for that it calculates around 175 kcal. For the way back, going up all the time, around 85 kcal. How is that possible? Also distance is not accurate. Besides that, lots of advertising and pop ups, annoying.

Pre upgrade push button sync. Now its hit or miss, some upload some dont. I have had good luck with my phone- speeds and gps very accurate. My totals are now way off with the poor sync. Ads are more obnoxious now-videos suck. Getting ready to uninstall if things dont improve. Too bad, I used to recommend this app all the time.

I really like the App and the statistics but how good are they if whenever I am recording an activity and switch to another App and then back to Road bike the lock option disappears and I am unable to resume or stop the activity? I loose my activity and although I can recover the last session it happens again and again until I give up and go to Strava

Does a great job of tracking everything but the constant reminders to download the pro version is annoying. As well as pop-ups telling me to connect to Facebook and connect my music to the app.

failed to record my ride.. i was hoping to record my daily ride, preparing for my long ride soon.. but it suddenly stops and tells mo if i want to continue my session, tapping yes will reset the distance recorded earlier which is a real bummer.. it continued to record the time but not the distance.. honestly i'm planning to buy this.. but seeing some other users experiencing this stuff, i think a have to pass and start using other apps.. wont recommend this to my fellow bikers.. thanks for the free version btw..

1. Very inaccurate distance and elevation measurement (up to+-8% error) 2. Does not account for the surface quality (for ex., by corrective coefficient) 3. Does not account for the bike quality (for ex., by corrective coefficient) 4. No print results option.

I installed the app and started it up before my ride. A nice feature was that it allows you to delay the stat by a half minute or so. You can put your phone away, the the helmet on in that time. I thought it was very good giving me a summary at the end and the map shown is really nice. The second time I used it the pop-up ads were completely annoying. You can't do much before the entire screen is taken up by an ad and you have to hit the x. I really don't understand why this business model is so great for any app developer I mean who really ever engages with the ad? I was willing to buy the paid for version that gives you an auto-pause feature then I started reading that the ads don't go away when you pay so forget it. I don't use the app any more. I mean seriously I'd buy the app for 5 bucks if it didn't have the stupid ads all the time.

I ride my bike about 20KMS atleast 5 days a vk....my gps signal goes weak...all of a sudden...after completing my activity.. i find my statistics very awkward....i dont know whom to blame mobile..network or app

Just tried this for my bike ride home from work. I'm too poor for a car so my bike is my only transportation so motivation is a nonissue, but i like to have my achievements laid out to see and share. The tracking is great and from what I can tell the speed tracking is as accurate as I'm gonna get without a speedometer, but the calorie burn algorithm is wildly incorrect when compared to other sources. I'm going to shop around and compare to other apps on the coming days and return to update my review after.

The app seems okay, but every single time I use it, the app tells me GPS signal lost within the first few minutes of riding. It also doesn't seem to follow me accurately. A daily 2.03 mile ride to the gym is usually recorded by the app as being less than one mile, but the timer works fine. If it took me 15 minutes to ride a third of a mile, I probably shouldn't be on a bike. lol

I went on same route with my friends and we all get different total distance covered and Max speed is much slower then I had ,tried it on HTC ONE M9 and Huawei P8

Have downgraded from 5stars to 1star... The recent update has ruined this fabulous app... Just don't record my tracings... And looses the gps connectivity every 5min... Really annoying

I'm using Cyanogenmod 13 (Android 6.0 MM) - Xperia SP, first opening /everything is just fine, but after , the app won't start anymore and keep giving force closes. (Tap to the app, blank white screen and ta da! It gives FC) Please fix this problem, I love this program so much.

So now I don't actually know the distance I went since only a portion of it shows up on the map. I'm hoping for a better experience next time.

This is a great app does a good job of measuring your distance is calories everything the problem is pop-ups ads annoying things that I have viruses on my phone all kinds of stuff that I just couldn't put up with so I finally uninstalled it

They will continue to shove the premium, paid membership down your throat. Sometimes it's impossible to skip without closing the app or web site and returning.

Gets disconnected even though google. Map is active entire activity goes for a toss aap sucks am deleating it

Es ist sehr schade, dass die App ständig anzeigt, dass ich keine Internetverbindung hab wenn ich synchronisieren will. Damit ich hab ich absolut keine Chance die Features auf der Website zu nutzen! Danke dafür!

Update February 2016 is great but can you put back the screen staying on as soon as you open the application. Not just when it's started monitoring?

The new update is wonderful. The UI looks superb and the error i had, force closing when trying to load history is gone.

Is it too much to ask to have some instructions. Some guages are unreliable such as distance. Others don't seem to work at all (gradient). Auto pause stops but doesn't restart - useless

I've really enjoyed the app despite the super clunky way ads are handled. Occasionally loses connection to server and have to restart to upload stats. Occasionally registers a 0 mi ride. But as of today's update, I can no longer access my ride history beyond one month in the free version. It has been a good few years, looks like I'm trading my ongoing ad revenue for the Pro version.

Just what i needed and even more

Amazing app! Works well.

Strva is better.

After I pause the time continues but the distance is not added. Thus nullifying the entire workout session. App needs to improve on this front.
