I didn’t use it during the race (I was running so had the tracker function on though), have been told people had trouble with tracking updating, from other reviews sounds like the app was overwhelmed. I had WiFi off, so that may have been part of the issue (it did tell me it might not work as well without WiFi enabled). Really liked the photo booth function!

App is repeatedly asking for reviews two days before marathon. 1. The app did not go “active” until 9 days before the race. The countdown space holder on the app has room for 999 days. A little misleading from when we were asked to download app months ago. Set realistic expectations or communicate changes! 2. The procedure to set up live tracking is not confidence building. No way to test a connection before start of of race. It’s a wait and see for the rest of the skills on the app. So, there’s your review Flying Pig. Now, can I open app without the ful screen request to rate it??

Participant time tracking was amazingly on time every time. Saw my runners at six locations and app told when they were going to be there right when they arrived. Weekend info and other information was nice to have at fingertips also for the weekend

I’ve never written a review before but this felt necessary. My family was planning to meet me as I finished but the app was over an hour off of my projected finish time. Several different phones had the same unreliable result. I thought the purpose was to help people trying to follow a racer and my family was disappointed they didn’t get to see me at all throughout the race. I spoke with other racers and their families after the race and they had the same issue.

Ran the relay and I was not able to follow my team mates or even find my final pace. 4.5 hours later it still says we are all waiting to start. I looked for somewhere to register number in app but can’t find it. When I looked up our relay bib number I found an average pace for all 4 of us in total, but cannot find my individual pace. I didn’t start Runkeeper or another app because I figured I would have this information through the pig
