An editorial reading of the saved reviews

Runmeter is a tracker for data geeks: customizable voice announcements, custom interval workouts, deep history. A historically strong product that lost part of its audience over one architectural decision: Apple Watch requires an iPhone nearby. Users who bought the Watch for running independence say flat out "zero stars without the phone." Occasional GPS issues, screen freezes, and mid-run tracking stops have hurt reliability. Support is responsive but problems are accumulating.
