Walkmeter is iPhone-centric. No web site logins, no monthly subscriptions, no uploading data, and no ads. Walkmeter is a complete solution for tracking your workouts on your iPhone. It can be used for running, cycling, walking, skiing, skating, and more.
TRACK
Walkmeter continually records your time, location, distance, elevation, and speed - years of workouts only take up the space of a few songs. Stop and start recording on-screen or with your earphone remote.
VISUALIZE
See your results on maps, graphs, and a calendar, and organized by routes and activities. Summarize your statistics by day, week, month, year, and overall.
HEAR
Monitor your progress with up to 20 configurable announcements including distance, time, speed, elevation, climb, and more. Announcements may be heard automatically at time or distance intervals, or on-demand with your earphone remote.
RACE
Compete against your previous workouts along a route. See your virtual competition on a map and in graphs. Each workout is ranked as best, better, median, worse, and worst.
SHARE
Use Facebook, Twitter, and email to share Google Maps of your workouts, automatically updated every few minutes. During your workout, hear replies from family, coaches, and friends spoken using text-to-speech technology. Have emails automatically sent to keep family and friends notified of your progress and location. Export workouts in GPX, KML, and CSV. You can also export raw data for graphing and analyzing your workouts.

Customer Reviews
Does what it says
I use this app on my daily walk and so far it has done everything promised. The remote control feature is great, and I've not had a problem listening to my music while running this app. Just make sure you start your music first, then start the app. I'm very happy with it.
I Use Daily
I rarely write reviews for apps.
A few games and novelty lifestyle apps have been interesting but nothing that would compel me to take the time to write a review.
Walkmeter has truly been an application that I use daily since I purchased on my iPhone.
I find it very reliable and also motivational.
The only improvement that I could imagine would be communication with a Polar type chest strap to monitor heart rate.
Thank you
Carter
Great app and great customer service!
This app is just perfect for you when you want to track your walking/running etc. Bought it last night and used it today :) Very accurate.
Would be great to have a pedometer in there also.
And yes customer service is super good! I mailed them about 2 hours ago (it's the weekend!) and they mailed me right back!
