Under Armour Map My Walk 4+

Weird results

I walked around my pool for 30 minutes and got no credit for it and I was walking at a good clip. All it showed was a big blob! There is a light cleaning option but nothing for heavy cleaning like washing floors, windows or scouring sinks, stove and toilets. I like to spring and fall clean and when I do, I get quite a workout with moving couches and chairs, office furniture, vacuuming floors. A lot of the time I’m sweating and I’m not a person that sweats in the heat even though I’m really really hot! I have been using the app for a few years now, but I think I should have an option for house work as workout. I realize some people think it’s so easy to be home all day with “nothing to do” but seriously it’s way more work than people think it is!! It’s not constant every day, but once a week for sure it’s a good workout!
Thanks for your consideration.

It was great but now...

I’ve been using this app for about 2 weeks now and didn’t run into any issues until a couple days ago. I signed up for the paid MVP program because I was enjoying the app thinking maybe that would solve the issue but no. When I start my walk from my phone, the GPS tracker is not keeping accurate distance at all. I’ll have walked 2 miles but it’s only showing I’ve done a mile or less and shows me cutting through yards and even houses, not even close to the roads that I took. When I start my walk through my apple watch, it seems to keep my distance okay but it STILL shows me cutting through yards and houses around the streets I actually took. I’d love to continue to use the app if it worked properly but it sounds like I’ll be canceling my subscription and going to a different app. I’ve sent in two messages to the support team regarding this. I’ve tried restarting both my phone and my watch, deleting the app and re-downloading, and even checked Google Maps to make sure my GPS was showing me in the correct direction and in the actual location I am in. (Which it did) The “GPS” signal bar on Map my Walk is always green showing I have perfect signal, so why am I running into these issues? I hate having to find a new app but this is ridiculous.

Crazy since last update

Update #2 Jan 6 - the GPS and timer function have gone crazy one more time. Says I am walking a 7 minute mile and I know I walk fast but.....also the distance is not correct because I do the same route and it did not register the mile until I had gone at least 1.2 miles. This is SO FRUSTRATING because I rely on his app as an accurate tracker. If this keeps happening I am going to ditch it for something that really works all the time, not sporadically.

UPDATE - since the very latest update on Nov 2 it seems to be better. Today it properly tracked time and distance. Hopefully the problem is fixed. Upgraded from two to four stars based on historical use and the new improvements. Like the larger screen display too so thanks for that! Stay tuned!
********************************************I have an iPhone and have been using this app for at least two years no issues. Since the last update it is not properly tracking time OR distance and therefore not tracking calories or anything else correctly. I know this because I take the exact same walk almost every day so have it in my history. I walk fast but I can’t do 1.2 miles in 8 minutes!! Please fix ASAP.
