HEALTH DATA
Collection of Health data such as calories burned and heart rate requires an Apple Watch or other Apple Health connected device.
BATTERY USE
Arc is only awake and using GPS when you are active and moving. For the rest of the day Arc stays in a low power sleep mode, with GPS turned off, to conserve battery.
On a typical day of two to three hours of travel a single full battery charge should last from morning to evening without requiring extra recharging during the day. However longer trips (for example a long hike or cross country drive) may consume more than expected battery, due to Arc needing to be awake and recording, with GPS activated, for the duration of the trip.
For longer trips, I recommend plugging your phone into a car charger or battery pack, to avoid unpleasant battery surprises.

Ratings and Reviews
Great
The current version of Arc is excellent!
Developer Response ,
Hi! Arc has been in development for almost four years. That's four years of full time R&D.
There is absolutely no way that a product of this complexity can be made available entirely free. It costs money. If it is not paid for, it cannot continue to exist.
If you would prefer an entirely free product, then you will need to accept lower quality of recording, less detail, and less functionality. You will need to use a different app. If however you want Arc's detail and accuracy, which is the highest available, then you will need to pay for the product.
Thank you for your understanding.
App stops recording frequently
My first enthusiasm from this application was very soon changed to dissapointment. I wanted to replace discountinued Moves app.The Arc application can’t be used at all. It stops recording at least once a day.
Developer Response ,
Hi! What you describe is not normal! For almost all users, Arc does not stop recording, and has no data gaps. So something is going wrong on your phone!
If you would like to find the cause of the problem on your phone, and get it fixed, then please contact me directly from "Feedback & Support" in the app. The email sent from there will include debug info, which can help to diagnose the cause of the problem on your phone.
Thanks 😄
