Walkmate

I used this app for one year now but for the last month it does not work unless screen is always on. The last update does not address the issue. This is happening on a sony xperia phone. I would have expected sony to fix the app after so much time not working and with all other users reporting same problem.

As I have a Sony Z5 premium I thought this App maybe more compatible with my mobile. My walk using this App showed as a total distance of 2.83 miles which I knew was wrong so after a check using my car and then the Endomondo App they both come in with an average of 6.6 miles!! This App was incorrect over a distance of less than 7 miles by 3.7 miles!!!! Embarrassing inaccurate. Will be using Endomondo from now on.

Long-time user of the app - agree with other posters that steps counted and distance covered dropped drastically after the Nov 2, 2016 update. Thanks to the other posters I now know that the steps are not counted when the phone is locked, which makes the app unusable for me. How can I restore the previous behavior? Sony was ahead of the curve when they first added this to their phones many years ago - please fix it or help us find a workaround.

2 days ago installed new update,since that time it stopped counting my steps when my phone is anywhere but in my hand. It used to count with my phone in my bag x in my jeans pocket etc. Now it is useless,it's so pitty as this app is provided by sony officially. Yes,the problem is that it is working only eith the screen on,I've just figured it out!

Is there a way to remove the "step counter is running" @ top of screen in Notifications tab? It's irritating me to death, I keep it clear to keep track of new messages and e-mail and it's tricked/misleaded me too many times now... Will have to turn it off completely if there isn't a option for it... Or turn off notifications, but then the goal notification will be lost and I might as well turn it off completely... Please help!!! Otherwise app works perfectly on Sony Z5

Highly INACCURATE after update. Good one but stop working, when phone is locked, you have to hold mobile screen on and in ur hand while walking all the time. Improve so it can work,when Mobile get locked and we can put it in pocket while running and walking

No one app will count all steps accurately. If anything it challenges me to take more than is actually counted. 5 stars for this app

Completely useless now. Used to work great but Sony seems to no longer support this app. Which is a shame because that reflects badly on Sony.

I have used Walkmate for 2 years and it suited me fine but since an update last week it does not count all my steps. I checked it and it now measures 50% approx. I will have to stop using it if this can't be fixed

THIS MADE ME MOTIVATE TO WALK EVERY DAY! THANK YOU S9O MUCH IT MAY NOT THAT ACCURATE BUT GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME AND I AM MOST THANKFUL WHO EVER TRY TO MAKE IT ^^*)

On Z1 Compact worked good, on Z2 I've lost whole training 3 times in a row! It's maybe because of GPS, but it's frustrating!

It used to be one of the good applications. After recent updates tracking isn't accurate. It either stops counting when the display is off or resets to zero

Unhappy, I knew that it wouldn't be completely accurate so I expected it to be a little off. However, I didn't expect that out of 1000 steps it would only count 100 at this rate I'll never reach my daily goal. At least not anytime soon. ..... Contemplating deleting the app altogether.

Second day in a row that I have wall ed over a mile and only got a hundred steps!! this thing doesn't work!

The UI is very good and informative, but it can't working properly with the SmartWatch (note: Sony SmartWatch 2). It didn't update the steps if I'm not bring along the smartphone. FYI, My SmartWatch is connected all the time via Bluetooth.

Since yesterday the app didnt count all the steps. Today i did a 3km walk and it shows only 1.2 km , not good....

It does not support when screen is locked and application is minimized , need improvement

UI PROBLEM: When viewing step counter history, the line under the months tab keeps getting longer and the name of the month moves to the right until it dissappears off the screen. This happens only when the app has just been installed and there is only one month to display. App is installed on xperia XA1 with Android 7.0 This problem is not there on my Xperia Z3 compact with Android 6.0.1

Stopped its function like it used to be-- i own z5i compact with 8gb free internal and 32gb free space from a 64gb sd card, class 10 (sony also) ive been using this app for almost 9 mos now and hoping to record all of my activitiss but to my surprise, i backed up records but it didnt backed up. And lately, when im walking, it didnt register my walk yet my sw2 (yes, im a sony fan) Displayed my activity. Too bad this app was nice before but now it got serious problems. I HOPE they support cloud back up, more engagement, like a story telling run etc. Update: THIS IS HORRIBLE. I think IT NEVER REGISTER A PART of your walk. THANKS DEVELOPERS FOR YOUR AWESOME MEDIOCRITY. Its A MAJOR FAULT.

not supported to my new gionee a1 phone that have android 7.0

Now I very much like this app since last update. A lot more useful and good looking. Would like to see some transparency

I just got Swr12 and I thought heart rate sensor will work with it... unfortunately no... I hope from Sony to upgrade it..

It's not working after screen goes off! Used device Sony Xperia L Stock Rom

Why dose this keép reseting through the day stupid fix it or I'm ditching it

Not working properly since last two days.

App crashing in between training mode and restarts really it sucks

Frontlined CET o clock

Just took it for a good 5km plus got back home and it did not track my workout.. UNINSTALLING NOW

Not counting my step when the app is not open

When I'm trying to share the distance covered, app is getting closed unfortunately. Why..???

Awesome app for walk workout but is is not properly work for sometime.

Can't share to whatsapp, please fix it

The perfect pedometer

Good for walking exercises

Good app.

Great

After latest update installed today does not record steps properly, undercounts considerably. Before update was as good as a pedometer. Note to developer. I think now the problem is when it goes into sleep mode it just stops counting.

Since last updated step count is lower. I am doing same journeys before update and I am doing less steps. It was the best app for walking but not now. As from 24/10/16 problem seems to be sorted, back to the way it was.

Super app, have been using it for months and last week it just stopped counting. New Android update may be the problem. Developer needs to be made aware.

After latest update app doesn't count steps properly. When phone goes to sleep I guess the app just stops working. Before that it was very good. I like it design and usability. Simple and does just what it supposed to do. Doesn't drain your battery. Please do something.
