Description

Distance meter is an easy to use, multi-purpose GPS distance tracker. Ever wonder what the distance of your favorite walking trail is? Distance Meter can find it! Need to know how fast your traveling while biking? Distance meter can tell you that too. Distance Meter can even show you how many calories you have burned during your workout!

Since Distance Meter takes advantage of the iPhone 3Gs built in GPS Receiver, its accuracy is much improved over a standard step pedometer that cost ten times as much. Distance Meters calculations can be accurate to within a few feet* with a good GPS signal.

Go walking, hiking, jogging, running, biking, and distance meter will automatically calculate your distance traveled, current pace or speed, and much more!

Distance Meter is also compatible with the popular workout sites MapMyFitness.com and TraningPeaks.com. You can upload all your workout data quickly and easily, and utilize the advance workout logging features of these sites.


Enjoy one of the most useful iPhone 3G GPS applications on the App Store!

Customer Reviews

Great concept, but I last longer than the application (2 stars)
This potentially slick little application integrates GPS technology and online workout tracking websites to provide live feedback on your exercise routines; walk, run, hike, bike, other. Initially I was thrilled to watch my calories click away as I watched my blue dot [me!] advance on the sattelite view. However, the application has a fatal flaw that prevents from from using it again: I am 50 years old and my exercise routines outlast the ap

Prepare to be disappointed (1 star)
This has a very fancy user interface now, but it is the same crappy application it always was. Do not rate this until you actually use it. Prepare to be extremely disappointed when: 1) it freezes 20 miles into a ride or run, 2) you run or ride 10 miles and it tells you that you've only gone half a mile, and 3) you keep having to put in your weight every time for it to count calories. I don't give an "A" for effort, only an "A&

This is a rip off (1 star)
Do not get this app, its a rip off, it simply doesn't work. I bought this app over a year ago and have been having problems with the app crashing during my run. I have contacted the developement team about the issue and they advised me to turn off notification, wifi and a bunch of other stuff, none of which solved the problem. They promised me an update last November 2009 and have not done so. Don't get this app it simply doesn't work
