Sports Tracker for All Sports App Reviews

Top App macht Spaß!

I can see how much work I did. Its great app.

Best

Good! Very good!

It works well.

Just awesome

Good app, but...doesnt save workout start time, only date.

And yet another subscription model. Ridiculous. Now pretty useless without "subscribing". My data is now behind a payment wall. Useless update other than yet another annoying subscription model. Not worth for the rest of us who tracked for the fun of it.

Even after resetting watch and deleting/adding app again and ensuring all permissions are available, this app doesn’t show up on my watch. It’s the ONLY app that doesn’t. I will miss this app, it was really good when it worked.

App closes cant open it please help. Restarted iphone does not help, have tried to update the app, but its most uptodate

Just deleted the app after the recent request to obtain unrestricted personal health information and location at all times. In order to use the app you have to accept the above. Nope! See ya!

I used to like this app a lot. I ride bikes, run, and do a lot of hiking. It was a good way of getting a reasonable estimate on what I was doing and to keep track of my workouts. The other day I accidentally logged out and when I logged back in most of my workouts are now gone. It looks like I’ll now need to switch to strava or something like that. This app is pretty much worthless now.

I’ve had this app crash and stop recording my activity six times in the last three months. Only still using it because it does record my workout to the Apple Health reliably when it does work, as opposed to another app that rarely crashes but does not save to Apple Health. Also there is no community feeling here. Clubs, challenges, etc. The people who originally convinced me to try ST left for another app within a few months.

For years, I have loved this app. But recently it logs a mile before I get to the trail behind my house. Also it says I’m walking 16-20mph which is ridiculous! I’ve tried to contact support to no avail. Just going to delete the app.

Just normal 40 minute jogging, made my iPhone unavailable for 5 minutes, then another 5 minutes…. Rebooted, but did not help. Also, the reported steps in apple health can’t be added to the total. This is iPhone 11 on latest iOS 17.5.1. Are you sure you guys tested it stable with iOS?

It was bound to happen, it was always a great app when I used it.

Since the new update a bunch of features I’ve loved have been removed, and placed behind a pay wall. Look for another app. :(

This program does more things right than any other. 👏 The ability to see all current statistics in real time, even calories burned is great. And the ability to mark lap times is also invaluable. The map display and path tracking are truly marvelous. The app has rescued me many times when I have become lost in thick trails and has shown me the way out, saving me from becoming a meal for hungry California mountain lions😳. The yearly and monthly calendar summaries let you know what you’ve accomplished instantly without having to dig through menus. All around a very well constructed app. I regularly test others and after using them for a day or two I have always come back to SportsTracker. Keep up the good work you engineers in Finland!👍

Beware before you update that many features that used to be included in the free version are now only available via premium pay app.

Best one on the market but god I miss the days of being able to map out my path without having it charged to my card. I won’t be subscribing because it’s not a requirement for me and I don’t make that much money to be able to think of this as a treat. But sometimes I don’t know how long I ran for and forget my phone and that was a great way for me to see how far I actually went.

I wish this app worked for me, no matter what I did it freezes . I removed the app, reinstalled it, turned off my phone , back On … and nothing is working ! I barely can move forward one click then everything freezes.

Good app but they keep moving more and more features behind a paywall…I didn’t opt in to the free premium trial or anything so that’s just kind of a shady practice. Going to find an alternative app

I’ve been using this app for several years, and really enjoyed the feature set. That was until they gradually moved all the best features behind the premium paywall. So much so there’s no distinguishing characterize from all the other competing apps.

I have been using this app for years, but with the latest iOS at the end of 2023 with the introduction of the iPhone 15, this app is completely worthless. It opens and then freezes. Of course the splash screen ad works. I presume they just haven’t caught up with the updates so let’s get going developers.

It appears it’s only a matter of time. I use Sports-Tracker because I’m recovering from a mini stroke that happened almost 5 years ago as of the posting date of this review. Working out is essential to hitting the critical 5 year mark without a relapse after which your risk goes down as long as you keep up your fitness routine. Now I can’t even track my walking speed on the animated map which helped me determine if I’m maintaining an aerobic pace of at least 3 miles an hour throughout the entire walk. Just change the name to $port$Tra¢ker and get it over with.

Switch to Strava. Ever since moving to “pay for premium”, this app has been going downhill fast. Aside from putting your data being a paywall, they continually release “new features” which make no sense and are full of bugs. And that’s just in the free version. Considering that this is true of the features they release to the public (I.e., as incentive for you to buy premium) I can’t imagine how many of the “premium features” are just as ridiculous and buggy as these. Strava has all the same features for free as this one does, but is actually widely respected and used. I don’t have any loyalty to this app anymore. Once they put years of my data behind a paywall and started releasing buggy features in their place, it was set for a course downhill. They haven’t course corrected since then. Waste of time to use this.

i have used/loved/recommended this app since is came out - 7-8 years or so - as it had all the features that kept you using it, especially for my sport of choice - street skateboarding; maps/heat maps, distance, intervals, pause/start, tss, training over time improvements, etc. i did expect it would go paid, but by adding something more that would ‘take it to the next level’ (way above others that have come since and added even more), not by taking pre-existing features and putting THEM behind a paywall - that’s pretty shady; it’s the same app and a subscription to get back what we already had is cheap, they’ve added nothing new. well, i’m off to another app, there are so many more since you came along and several offer more/better features for either a one time payment or much less expensive yearly subscription. i’ll still keep an eye on it, check back, and see if your tactics change (i have a soft spot for sportstracker - maybe add new features?!), but my hopes are low..

I’ve used this app fairly constantly for almost 10 years and loved it. Recommended it to several of my friends because I loved I could plan and follow my routes and see how my run stacked up against past runs on the same route. Now not only is using your saved routes a premium feature but so is comparisons to past runs on the route and even the voice feedback is now a paid feature. Used to love it now it’s deleted and I can’t recommend enough not to use this anymore because who knows what feature will be lost next

After using the app for a long time, some of the features suddenly quit working until I realized they are now part of the premium version. The developer should have grandfathered the users that have been using the app and had new subscribers to pay for the premium version. As others mentioned, we hate to leave but time to look at other apps.

Time to look for an alternative. It would make sense to block newly developed features behind a paywall...but features that were already free now being inaccessible is unethical. It's not like there was any real overhead cost to KEEP those features since there haven't been any improvements. I would've paid a 1-time upgrade cost but a subscription?!?! Really?

Overall I like the app and find it easy to use. There used to be a widget, which I loved. But after one of their updates, it vanished into thin air. Idk why, maybe it’s because I use an iPhone. Who knows, but I do miss the widget..

I use Sports Tracker and Strava simultaneously. Sports Tracker fof at least a decade; it is simpler, and has good features that I think are great!

After updating sports tracker most recently, all the remaining features were placed behind a paywall. These aren’t even fancy features, just things you would expect in a workout app. I’m switching to Runkeeper, as, for example, they will give you audio stats in the free version.

I’ve been using this SportsTracker app for years for no fee. The most recent update now includes a premium fee to compare my routes and voice feedback during workout. I have held out when other family members and friends were trying to get me to change my sports app to Strava or Garmin app. I hate to leave SportsTracker, because all of my activities will be lost. But I am not going to pay a premium fee for the features that I’ve grown accustomed to using for free. it’s time for me to make the switch. Bummer

Me and my wife are using this app, and suddenly a lot of functionality of my app became unavailable and I have to buy Premium to enable it again. Interestingly, my wife still has full access and she’s not paying. Because of this, I’m not going to pay. I guess I’ll go back to Runkeeper since you took away everything that I came here for.

Moved all of the useful features to premium! Now you have to pay see data that was previously available at no cost.

This is by far the best free running app available. It tracks distance, heart rate, cadence and so much more plus breaks down runs into half mile increments. The animation of each run on a satellite map is probably the coolest feature. Highly recommend and works seamlessly with my Apple 8 watch.

After a years, creators of the app decided to remove functions and to offer them as a paid option. Unprofessional is just a polite word for this pickpocketing.

Very disappointed to discover the feature that tells me via voice-feedback the mileage, speed etc during my cycling workout is now a “premium” feature that I have to pay for. I understand adding features for an additional charge, but starting to charge for features that app users are accustomed to using for the free app is very annoying! I’m now searching for a different workout tracking app!

This app has been a good one. Upgrade to “Premium” degraded the Basic version to bare bones. No thanks!

My family and I have been using this app for years to track and share workouts with each other. There were a number of features that made this app head and shoulders above many of the other training apps available, such as active split and pace feedback during training, route history and trends, and TSS scores for training intensity insight. Kudos to the developers for making an awesome product that gave people useful data to help them train smarter and more effectively. It comes as no surprise that progressively some of the more useful features have started to disappear behind an ambitious paywall. Someone must have decided that providing data driven training insight, constructive feedback, and any functionality beyond that of a digital checkbox for “tracking sports” goes against the ethos of their app’s name. ISO new fitness app that values its customers and wants to enable and empower them to meet and exceed their training goals.

Been using the app for years, despite the somewhat recent unresponsiveness of support and unresolved bugs, its features kept me invested. I know it was going premium, I replied to their surveys, always stressing the bugs experienced and lack of support. Now, one of the features I loved the most is behind a paywall: the map diary, that color codes the routes taken based on the activity. On top of that, I still experience the same old bug that’s going on for months: haven’t gotten the total distance saved to the activity after recording it with the Apple Watch (rollerblading). Quoting another recent review: I don’t need to pay to know it’s going to be a bad experience.

Previously you were able to plan routes and follow them on your device. They removed this feature (along with a few others) and are making it seem like it is a new and improved perk…when it is just the same app repackaged with a few

You’re just move some features to premium. How useless. I won’t buy it and I will delete it.

I’ve used this app for many, many years and it’s proven to be reliable and full of features for an app that is available for free. I prefer it to using Apple health, especially since I do not wish to wear an Apple Watch or Fitbit to track my movement.

The free iPhone app is very comprehensive. It includes all the features even a semipro athlete would need. It is quite easy to use and allows effective review of trends and historical data. The Apple Watch app on the other hand is a sad attempt at best. Functionality is extremely limited and things do not sync properly. I don’t know why it is called a standalone app.

I was a very satisfied user of this program for three years. I loved that I could keep track of workouts of all types. It is important to me to keep my information private.Recently, the use agreement changed.The company states that they have access to and can use all sports tracker data and data from related health applications. They do not de-identify it.They can sell it to whomever they want. I am deleting the program. I will not use it again and I will advise against using it to anyone who asked me what sport tracking program I use.

I have been using this app for years now & it’s great. But I have emailed 5 times trying to get help getting into my account after the app crashed & logged me out. I have gotten no response & this has been over the course of a month. Great app, AWFUL customer service, if there even is any!

I love everything about this app except where you set your starting weight in settings. It won’t let me type in a number; I have to scroll through numbers. I get the number to my weight (under 200), and then it starts scrolling like crazy on its own and puts me at 400+ pounds. I’ve tried and tried to set my weight and it keeps doing the same thing. It has me at 420 pounds! How do I get it to stick with the correct number?

Won’t let me select my real weight. It automatically scrolls to the highest weight listed on its own.

This was my go-to app for tracking all of my activities. But the new version released two weeks ago no longer opens or syncs with my watch. Can this please be fixed?

I think this is a zombie app that is no longer supported. If you look at the version history there is a monthly update where apparently a bot increments the version number and copy-n-pastes the same description. Was a great app for years but then an update completely broke the weight setting. No response from support going on 7 months, still broken today. Syncing with Apple health stopped working a long time back as well.

Great app, but how to I get it to stop pausing in the middle of my run.

Download this and tried to set my weight, but the dial just spins and won’t lock in the weight I need. This affects other data within the app. Noticed another reviewer from months ago said they had the same problem and that they had gotten no response from the developer. If you can’t get something that simple to work you have no business trying to make a fitness app. What else within the app program doesn’t work properly?

The app is broken. It only imports steps from Apple health, not activities. When I try to select any setting, the app freezes. I’ve tried multiple troubleshooting steps. Don’t waste your time with this one unless it’s fixed.

It doesn’t allow me to change my weight in settings! Just keeps going back to over 1000 pounds! So can’t get accurate calorie burn!
