Walkmeter Walking & Hiking GPS

authentic rating

People keep Walkmeter for years for a depth of data and control others lack, some logging thousands of miles over a decade, and it genuinely motivates them to walk. But tracking stops on its own mid-walk with no sound, mileage swings on the very same route, and on top of that aggressive ads creep in, even porn and fake virus warnings, which infuriates paying users.

About the rating

Many long-time users with specifics, one writes about 17,800 miles since 2013, valuing the depth of data and control, and the discontent is concrete, tracking stops on its own mid-walk and mileage swings on the same route. The gap between textAvg 3.56 and storeAvg 4.70 is moderate and no fakery is visible, more an old base against fresh ad problems.
