parkrun Official
authentic ratingThe official parkrun app: run history, participant QR code, event search nearby. The parkrun community itself is the core value. The app is an interface to that community, but data sync breaks periodically.

About the rating
Reviews describe real participation: volunteers, estuary views, barcode scanning. Complaints about data sync and missing new locations are typical of a community app.
Strengths
What users love
- The built-in participant QR code eliminates the paper barcode. Searching for parkrun events worldwide is fast. Milestone badge progress display is motivating.
Weak spots
What users hate
- New locations appear with a delay of several weeks after opening. Data sync sometimes fails: history disappears after reinstalling. No Apple Wallet barcode integration for scanning from a watch.
Who it is for
A parkrun community member who wants a convenient QR code on their phone and a history of their finishes.
