An editorial reading of the saved reviews

People love Vima precisely for its simplicity: hit start, hit record, get miles, time, pace, and a nice map, with no extra metrics. The sore point is spontaneous pauses and crashes mid-ride, which lose the exact mileage, plus distance can be 10-20 percent off. It especially annoys people that a once-free app now locks out even lifetime buyers behind a new subscription.

What people use it for

People who want a dead-simple counter of miles and time with no extra metrics, and who keep an eye out so the app doesn't pause itself.

What reviews praise

Utter simplicity of start-record, clean interface, miles, time, pace, and ride map, nothing extra, reasonable price, works even for non-cycling like a wheelchair or horseback

What reviews complain about

Spontaneous pauses and crashes mid-ride lose the mileage, distance is 10-20 percent inaccurate, heavily drains the battery, locks a once-free app and even lifetime purchases behind a subscription, history gets lost

What users experience

1 excerpt from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

I just rode 20 miles. After the 15 mile notification it paused itself.
