So much potential. But we need text cue sheet or ability to export gpx to Footpath, Strava, etc. Cuz this app is sooo wedded to cute, you can’t see the suggested path for all the floating trophies. Too much of a PITA to make out the route as presented. And, adores heavy traffic routes withOUT sidewalks. The asking price is thus laughably optimistic. I’m out

Annoying reminders during walk!

I wanted to love it. The set up was easy and it quickly auto generated a walk based on my timeframe. But I did not want to look at my phone for the directions. So I turned the voice directions on. They were so constant. Like continue on. Continue on. Continue on. Continue southeast. Constantly!!! It messed with my flow and my music and was more annoying than helpful. Rather than saying turn left on maple - like Google Maps. It would just continue give north/south/east directions. And when you are not familiar with a place that doesn’t help! It was also a little confusing if it was actually starting my walk or not. No start button and no pause buttons. Seems like the interface could use some refining. The idea is amazing. The simple set up is great but the small details really made it difficult to use.

Hi Jessie, thank you so much for taking the time to write this. I am really glad setup felt easy and that the idea resonated with you. I’m sorry the experience didn’t live up to that first impression.You’re right about voice guidance: repeating “continue on” and relying on compass directions instead of clear turn-by-turn street cues can pull you out of your walk and interrupt your music. That’s not the phone-free experience I want for WalkMate. I’m also sorry the walk controls felt unclear, starting and pausing should feel obvious, and I’ll definitely use your feedback to refine that part of the interface.I’m taking this seriously and improving voice navigation and the walking controls so the app stays helpful without getting in the way. Thanks again for trying Walk Mate and for such thoughtful, constructive feedback. If you’re open to it, I’d love another chance once these updates land.

What’s new: Walk Mate now works with Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight, and Apple Intelligence (App Intents). Save a walk once — then start a new loop or reopen a favorite without hunting through the app.
Ask Siri
• “Generate a route in Walk Mate” or “Make me a walk in Walk Mate” — creates fresh walking loops near you. In Shortcuts you can also set a distance first.
• “List my walks in Walk Mate” — Siri names your saved favorites and shows tappable cards. You don’t have to open the app first.
• “What’s my longest walk in Walk Mate” — finds your farthest saved route instantly.
• “Open [favorite walk name] in Walk Mate” — jumps straight to that favorite on the map.
Search & Shortcuts
• Spotlight: type a saved walk’s name to open it.
• Shortcuts: pin Generate Routes, chain “list walks → open one,” or put Walk Mate on the Action Button or Home Screen.
Tip: name your favorites clearly so Siri and Spotlight can match them.
