Map My Tracks: walking tracker
authentic ratingA GPS walk tracker focused on the route rather than the step count. The tracking itself gets praise, but account registration simply fails for many, and distance sometimes lies badly and draws in extra kilometres. What the one-off purchase gives and what is free is described unclearly.

About the rating
The reviews are detailed and contradictory: some praise the tracks and the free version, others slam registration and the confusion over paid features. It all looks natural.
Strengths
What users love
- Accurate real-time logging of route
- Distance
- Speed and elevation gain. The free version is enough for many
- And the interface is friendly and handy for walking and running routes.
Weak spots
What users hate
- Account registration often hangs and never completes. Distance is sometimes inflated and shows places you never went
- And hitting stop can wipe the whole track. The line between free and paid and the point of the one-off purchase are unclear.
Who it is for
Walkers and hikers who want a route track with distance and elevation, not a step counter.
