The Walk: Fitness Tracker Game (Free) for Android
Providing a couple of minutes of audio after several minutes of walking, the Walk proved to be a weak and unentertaining motivator for my walks. Then, despite multiple restarts, the app failed to track my walk during the second episode, dropping it to a one star rating.
Enjoyed the first few eps, but then it stopped tracking in Episode 4 no matter what I did. Very disappointed. I was enjoying the app but now uninstalled.
Kept crashing and wasn't good at telling when I was walking. First mission took an hour when it should have taken 32 minutes
Needed to give Google access to health information. I am definitely not going to do that.
It would be nice if they can Integrate it (similar to Z!r) with a music player. As it is right now, there's just too much dead air between clips.
I purchased the old version a few years ago and loved the story. But with now mandatory tracking through Google Fit I won't be using it anymore. I don't like having my GPS on all the time and having my location history saved, which Google Fit requires me to do to track anything. If an option for tracking via phone sensors returns I'd pick it up again since the story and voice acting are superb.

This app is best used on a treadmill if you want to keep an eye out on calorie burn and distance. But i love it. It is like a story game. I did the first episode twice in a row just to do the short cut do get an extra of the story. Motivates me to walk/run
