I have a very old vivoactive and this gives me the ability to drop waypoints while out on the trails with no cell service. Fantastic work. Thank you.

Good app, everything working great. Not sure what the bonus is of using it instead of the standard run activity other than not having to convert to "hike" or "walk" when I get home, though. Any features coming with this that I would not get with just using the run activity setting?

Hike is for older devices, but still has a few things you won't see with run, such as the ability to mark locations (way points) and the breadcrumb trail, distance to start, etc. Once you are recording, up/down take you through a number of different screens.

I can't use this anymore. I used to love it. Every time I try and use the app it resets my watch and also resets my steps back to 0.

Have used this along with other similar apps for a while before deleting the others and solely using this. Tracks reliably, has all the info I need ( plus more) and is simple to use use.

Great app thank you! What are the differences in the hiking or walking settings?

I found app useless as the info provided on face were not distance, time used, speed that are key for me and the only readable info while in motion was time of day. I did not find a way to adjust info. Only useful at end of hike.

Quick and easy to use, but still offers a great deal of useful, in-depth features for tracking your hike/trail run

I love this app! I use it on my FR235. Peter below mentioned you can change between hike and walk - can you tell me how to do that please?

Been using this app for a year or more now and found it is the only one I need. Love the ability to switch between Walk and Hike easily.

When I create waypoints during the activity. Are they lost, when I complete it?

Love the app! As I'm in the UK, any chance of adding an option to use the UK co-ordinate system rather than degrees, minutes etc.?

Nice app!!! The only problem is that I can't lock my device's buttons (FR235) using this app. Can you do something for that? Thanks a lot

Great app works great. Only the last couple of weeks it seems to have problems with good gps fix. It takes much longer to get a good fix. Sometimes up to five minutes. In the past it was much faster.

Used the app yesterday for a hike in the mountains. Very happy with all the info delivered.The app was running all the time..

Very nice app! But what could make it perfect is possibility to enter the GPS point coordinates in order to use it as outdoor navigator to reach the targeted place! Please add it!

Used the app yesterday for a hike in the mountains. Very happy with all the info delivered on the fly. However, after I saved the activity, I found out that the last 6 km are lost, 19 km instead of 25. But the app was running all the time. What might be a problem here? (I have Forerunner 235)

Molto bella, ma non riesco a convertire le miglia con i km, si può fare? per il resto utile e funzionale.

Love this app! I use it every time I go for a walk/hike. It would be great to have a heart rate alarm integrated. Thank you!

Hi, I used your app today for the first time and am very impressed of all avalaible info. Maybe you can improve the app adding the lock screen function. I loose 45min of hiking because the app paused... It will be really nice if we can lock the buttons (like the default function from device) so we start the activity and lock the device, so nothing can happen. Device: forunner 230 Best regards J

Brilliant app-I use it when I walk the dog (rather than running) and it is great for that. Thanks.

This is an excellent hiking app! Used for the first time yesterday on my FR235 and was really impressed with all the information available on each screen and especially the waypoints. I really like that when you mark a waypoint on an out-and-back hike, the app will alert you as you get close to one of your waypoints. Well done. Highly recommended.
Sorry, no statistics available yet.
