An editorial reading of the saved reviews
The best tool for building and narrating running routes, but navigation logic breaks on the watch and at complex course intersections.

What users experience
3 excerpts from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.
Love the idea of this app! And with a few improvements, it could be perfect. For one, as other users have stated, it often creates and narrates unnecessary turns in the middle of the run. I will be on a straight section and it will say 'turn right, turn left' to keep me going straight.
The past few updates have completely broken the core function of the app to speak turns and route directions. The app no longer speaks at all from my Apple Watch.
This app is so much better than others that claim to do the same thing. I never have trouble finding routes, and the turn by turn directions always keep me on track.
