Pedometer - Run & Step Counter
doubtful ratingThe step and GPS route tracker itself works decently, once you reach it. But usability is spoiled by aggressive monetization: a subscription screen with no close button must be bypassed by restarting, and without paying every tap meets a minute-long ad. Reviews barely rate accuracy, all attention is eaten by the fight with the subscription and ads.
A sharp gap flags a problem: store 4.47 versus text 2.14 and just 17 percent five-stars. Reviews are almost entirely about an aggressive 9.99-per-week subscription and an ad wall you cannot close without restarting the app. The high star score does not match the text, hinting at inflation.
What users love
- It tracks steps
- Calories and miles neatly
- And GPS route tracking is a particular favorite. It has useful reminders to move.
What users hate
- The subscription screen has no close button and you must restart the app three times. The 9.99-per-week subscription feels like a rip-off
- Without paying every tap meets a minute-long ad
- And GPS mode crashes.
Who it is for
For the ad-tolerant who want a steps and route tracker and will pay to remove ads. Not for anyone infuriated by pushy subscriptions and popup clips.
