Runs in background & calculates calories and altitude changes
This has an easy interface, and is a great value for the price. I like the way it calculates your distance, ave speed, altitude changes and calories. It would be nice to know if it can operate on the phone gps even when outside at&t range, but probably not as you cannot archive google maps.
Update: this app will keep tracking even when you do not have cell phone or internet. It just puts the data onto a map once you are back, so that is a plus. The current downside for me is that it will not interface with a bluetooth heart rate monitor (I have a nice wrist one by MioGo), it does not automatically link to My Fitness Pal or the iPhone 6 Health app, and somehow the phone and website lost my tracks for the last two years (I only have what was on my phone since June). Otherwise, it has the best interface of these types of apps.
