Apps for iPhone

我用緊 Runmeter, 唔錯, Runkeeper 免費, Runkeeper Pro 要 9.99, Runmeter 4.99

Runmeter 有幾個正既特性
1. GPS
2. Set announcement, 可以set每5分鐘或每1km通知你
3. 可以隨時報資料(聽緊歌按停, 等一等會有annoucement)
4. 所有 data 儲係個apps度, 可以 export / email 俾自己
5. Post 係 Twitter / Facebook, 有人回應可以announce 俾你知
6. 有得挑戰自己, 跑過既路線再跑會有提示快左定慢左

Is WIFI network essential for this app?

Hi, Wifi is not necessary, if you have 3G network, it will retrieve data and record at Google Map.

The major difference between Runkeeper Pro and Runmeter is Runkeeper Pro keep data on their website (good for sharing) while Runmeter keep all data at your iPhone (you could still email all information to yourself)

my phone start to damage.  I want to change my mobile phone.  I consider to choose Iphone or other smart phone.  I am interested in this software.  I am worrry about
1. the data is accuracy or not
2 I am a thin person so that I worry that I canot run long distance when I carry he phone (I worry about the weight of the phone)
3. how long the battery can support for GPS ( I am worry about the phone is out of battery within 2 hrs)
Based on the above information, I consider to buy iphone or not.

1. It's better locate yourself in an open area and wait for 1 minute to have locate your position. Once it's positioned, you may start using it, of course, it still depends on the place you run, basically, the accuray is quite good if either side is an open area.

2. Either armband or waistband, i'm using a waistband right now, it's good and you could listen to music while you're running, also for Runmeter, you could check your status anytime by press pause button, it will announce your current pace/speed/distance

3. I've once go hiking using the apps, it could last about 4 hours.

Hi Gary,

As it's using GPS to track location, the data size should not be large, you will only need to load the map if you keep viewing the map and moving around in order to update the map data, otherwise, it will just keep track of the GPS location instead. Also, for Runmeter, it provide offline mode if you worry about the data plan.

BTW, if you really plan to buy iPhone, just wait for 2 weeks, Steve Jobs will probably announce the next generate iPhone at WWDC on Jun 7.
