What it does
Running Walking Tracker Goals is a comprehensive fitness app designed to help users track their activities, set personal goals, and follow guided training programs. The app logs workouts like running and walking, either live via GPS or through manual entry. It also functions as a step counter and provides dashboards to visualize progress over time.
Where it shines
The app stands out by giving users a high degree of control over their data. A key moment is the post-workout flow (02:57), where users can manually edit any metric of a completed session, from distance to calories burned. This is a powerful feature for correcting GPS errors or logging activities done without a device. Another highlight is the shareable summary creation (02:30), which lets users combine their workout stats with personal photos and custom backgrounds, turning a simple log into a creative, social asset.
UX highlights
- Flexible Goal Setting: Users can initiate a workout based on various goals like distance, duration, or calories, providing flexibility for different training styles (01:05).
- Interactive History Charts: The activity log features a clever toggle system (03:17) that allows users to switch the chart's data source between metrics like distance, pace, and calories with a single tap.
- Comprehensive Manual Entry: The app allows for creating detailed workout logs from scratch, including activity type, distance, duration, and start date/time (03:30).
- Detailed Training Plans: Users can browse and select structured plans, view the entire schedule on a calendar, and inspect the details of each individual workout session (04:43).
- Creative Freedom: The ability to customize the post-workout shareable image with custom photos, backgrounds, and overlay colors is a unique touch that encourages sharing (02:41).
- Clear Settings Navigation: Settings are well-organized into logical sections like 'Workout' and 'General', making it easy to find and adjust preferences (06:55).
Monetization & growth
The app employs a hard paywall strategy during its onboarding. Before a user can access any of the core features, they are presented with a subscription screen offering a monthly or annual plan (00:48). The annual plan is highlighted with a 'SAVE 62%' tag and a free trial to incentivize a longer commitment. After the initial onboarding, subscription management is accessible through the settings menu, which leads to a page detailing the premium features.
Who it’s for
This app is well-suited for two types of users. First, casual to intermediate runners and walkers who want a straightforward way to track their activities and see progress over time. Second, data-conscious individuals who value the ability to maintain a complete and accurate log of all their workouts, including the ability to retroactively edit and add entries. The training plans also cater to beginners looking for structured guidance.
Notes & opportunities
The onboarding flow is very aggressive, forcing a subscription decision before the user has experienced the app's value. This could lead to a high drop-off rate. Allowing users to complete one or two tracked workouts before showing the paywall might improve conversion. Additionally, the live workout screen (01:56) is quite data-dense; offering a simplified view with just one or two key metrics could be a useful option for users who prefer less distraction during their activity.
