OP Here. Feel free to ask any questions. I'd love to get some feedback on it from anyone that runs or bikes etc. If you're curious, Vima is Greek for "Pace"

Like the app. If you ever want a job, I'd love for you to come help us at PredPol (jobs@predpol.com). We predict where crime is going to happen in the future so cops can stop is before it happens, and mobile is going to be a big part of that.

  Thanks, glad you like it. I'm not looking for anything right now, but that looks pretty sweet. Best of luck to you.

Why should I use this over Strava?
- clarky07 12y ago
  That's tough, because Strava is a great app. In our mind though it has a lot of stuff that isn't really needed that complicates things. If you like that stuff, you might as well stick with it. The selling point of our app (at least in my mind) though is the simplicity and ease of use. There are a lot of people who like Strava and RunKeeper and the others, but there are also a lot of people that don't want to login to run. They don't want to have their run data on a server somewhere. They just want a great app that lets them keep track of their exercise progress. We are hoping to carve out a niche for those people. Hopefully keeping things as simple as possible while still providing as many of the other great features we can. Things like the voice updates while running are a good example. It's a great feature that a lot of people love, but it doesn't change the interface one bit.

Nice app! I'm a Runkeeper user and I'm missing two things there: track your friends in the same map when meeting for a run (useful if starting point is not the same), and some sort of soundcloud integration (the track could be included in the facebook post after the run). The graphics look very good and the color scheme is well balanced. Is this native or html5? Any particular UI framework used?

  Thanks. It is all native. No special UI frameworks.
