1. It also doesn't track your exact route, just the most direct route when you manually add in a commute, so if you take the long way it doesn't count it.Please explain why your app needs to check my location, even when I turn the deceptive in-app tracker "off." My location at 2AM (the last time this app accessed my location data, apparently) has nothing to do with my commute.
2. It also doesn't detect if I go out for a ride that isn't during my normal commute time even though it requires location services all the time.
3. Ultimately, I suspect that the benefits here are not worth either the hassle of remembering to revoke location permissions when I'm not using the app, or the extremely suspicious and uncomfortable background tracking if I just allow the app to have the access it wants.I miss Ride Report.
4. BUT that's the second app that consumes the most battery on my phone even if I'm on weekends 500 miles from home - should be trivial to detect that I'm not supposed to commute anytime soon !The logic of this app and challenge is very flawed.
5. It does not allow trip chaining - when I combine grocery shopping with my ride home it doesn't care and I don't get bragging rights.
6. It should really compare your commute to the average commute in the area.updated and now it doesn't work.
7. this app is basically the website except it drains your battery and poorly tracks you.App is fine, but you can only log commute trips.
8. Requires location services 24/7 and drains battery.
9. Why does it still automatically assume that I walked to work? The one time I took the bus it thought i drove.
10. There are no "rewards" available, however much I ride, I don't get additional "points," (which serve no purpose I can find).
11. This app only looks for movement during the window you normally start and end work, between stated start and end points.
