Not William…but I am switching over to runkeeper from runmeter because i got a Withings scale for Christmas. One thing i like about runmeter is the color coded triangles/calendar integration that shows at a glance where i am trending above or below pace. Does runkeeper have such capability coming?

LOL. How much more specific does he need to be?

Not to threadjack, but it would be super helpful if the app and the Healthgraph provided better support for cardio activities that aren’t distance-related (e.g., stationary biking, calisthenics, etc.). Third-party apps let you record those activities but the way they are tracked isn’t consistent.

Hey William, thanks for the feedback! Can you be more specific about what you feel is missing from the app experience? We’d love to know more. Also, if you check out the update, would love to hear your thoughts on that as well. Thanks!

I think runkeeper has one of the best things going for them with the healthGraph but their app has always been one of the most useless ones out there. In this day and age you shouldn’t have to go to the site to get the details of a run. I really hope they expand the app enough to offer the same ondevice functionality you see from Runtastic.
