MapMyWalk is crud.
Freezes, doesn't measure correctly. Can do minutes of walking and the distance remains as 0. Then crashes.

Actual distance is 4km, so lost .8 Km along the way, which screws up the other data.
What's a good Android App for tracking walking/running?
Cheers.
i use endomondo. never had a problem with it.
Fuhgeddaboutit. Just find a exercise you enjoy and go do it. What are you gonna do with all that data anyway.

Strava. Free download for OiS and Android, plus PC and Mac. What device are you using to record?
Zombie's Run is good, also there is one called the Walk.
the trackings the same old shit but they give you a storyline that makes it mildly interesting
I've tried many.
My Tracks by Google was he best one I ever had but they discontinued it.
(and I got a new phone so, couldn't get it)
My problem with most of the others is when i go into the jungle, they lose reception under tree cover.
(MyTracks didn't)
Lately Strava seems to work the best for me.
But once they let me down, i go look for another one.
Probably have tried 6 or 7 since google stopped MyTracks.
If it's not on Strava it didn't happen.
Thought everyone knew that.
Samsung Galaxy something or other phone.Quote:

If you have a newer Samsung just use their App called Samsung Health. I have used it in the past and it works good .
Fuc that off, Lu, and get yourself one of these.Quote:

Installed Endomondo, Strava, and MapMyWalk. Will try to run all 3 simultaneously tomorrow during a quick 4km stretch to see if that crashes me Samsung. :)

Out of interest... that 136 high.,,,,,, did it involve 3 grammes of ya ice, 2 sidegra , 32 award winners and ya dong chasers, a ploughed hillside in Samui, 6 farmyard animals and a betlenut driven menage a trois with Granny and Stoker, or was that another weekend?
For a fit man like Slap, that's probably only about 75% of his maximum heart rate. Not too strenuous for him.Quote:

Even with that, none.... bladdy none, started measuring any distance for the first 400-500 meters.
Total 6km with 3 stops for upperbody workout.
Endomondo was the best, recording 5.36km, and slo some nice extra info.

2nd place was MapMyWalk, which was not too far off with 5.24km measured.
https://teakdoor.com/attachment.php?a...id=13819&stc=1
By far the worst performing was Strava, with only 3.3 km measured. Little over half the total distance.

That's weird.Quote:

Guess would be possible poor GPS coverage due to trees. GPS worked fine on Google Maps, but none of the apps were picking up any distance. 2-3 minutes of walking and distance 0.0 meters. Kicks in around 400-500 meters.Quote:

The Apps obviously have some sort of separate connection to the GPS, strava only measured 3.3km out of 6.

3 mins in and all showing 0.0 distance.
Google Maps was following the GPS no problem.
My mistake with Strava. It's set to miles instead of Km.
So:
Endomondo: 5.36km
Strava: 5.31Km
MapMyWalk: 5.24
Do you have some kind of privacy setting that stops you being tracked near your neighbour's houses, for some reason? :D
Lol.
Not that I know of.
Digging deeper and Strava seems the best.
Changed to Km and lists the 'active time', so when stopping every 2km to do upperbody stuff it doesn't track that time. And easy to use history stats.
https://teakdoor.com/attachment.php?a...id=13826&stc=1
That'll do.
Cheers chaps.
What so you were expecting something that tracks your activity via gps to know when your activity is....lifting weights.Quote:

Bolli, you are soooo 2012. This was but a trice with some crack addled whoopsie operating out of a shed in Deptford. Only cost me twenty pence. Good eh. The COOP in-house Gin and vape liquid were a little dearer, mind - but you can't put a price on a good evening out.Quote:

So sack the walking off Lulu, and do some proper exercise.
If you cant beat em, ,cheat em Lu.
Get yourself juiced up like Ant or Somtam Armsrong.

I walk from my bedroom door to the car which is about 100 metres at least 12 times a day.
Then 30 metres from my car to the bar stool at least 4 times a day,
Not forgetting 30 metres from my car to the 7eleven beer fridge 2 times every day.
Then 5 metres at least 10 times a day from my sitting position to the bathroom.
So around 1.5 Km's every day. Do I need a machine?
^there'll be no room.......youre gonna need 200,000 baht in your pockets soon
