Pros and cons of Private Tracker app for iPhone and iPad

Private Tracker app good for

This app does exactly what I want, no more, no less. I just want to take a bike ride and see how long Ive riden, how far, how fast Im going, and where I went. I dont see any reason it wouldnt work for walking either. I also want to be able to go back and see where I went on past rides. This app does all of these things perfectly.
This app is so awesome i think it must come within the iOS, i totally would buy it if was paid, thanks a lot for the developers! Love ya
I love the clean design of this app in style of iOS8, its simple, very simple, and very useful indeed! Theres nothing bad, I can export perfectly any GPX track and import them later on my Apple Aperture library for my photos captured with a not-gps camera. This is the best GPX app that I found on the store!

Some bad moments

A nice app, but since iOS8 conflicting with other apps when running in the background. Hope this will be fixed.
This works, but you will have to pay money to mail your data the first time. To be precise, you can email 5 minutes of data free each time, but must pay if you are sending more. You can use this to geotag an afternoon of photos in the same place, or else start and stop the app every few minutes if you are moving. I will use another app that is really free.
Thank you so much for this app. The aesthetic is sparse and I love the functionality. I would really appreciate it if you could design a landscape orientation for your app so that it would look better on ones dashboard.
Im a lifelong runner in my 40s. I outdistance and outpace runners half my age. Ive incorporated technology as a training tool since the beginning of heart rate monitors. The MAJOR flaw with most well recognized running apps is "bloat"--fancy interfaces, generic caloric burn meters, nutrition bots, cameras, advertising, graphs and charts (Okay, some data useful). "Fun runners" and "social runners" become slaves to their phone apps. Hey, if it gets you motivated and keeps you active, great! But this app is the opposite – clean, lean and only the necessary information for serious runners. I consider this app among the top three of all running apps in the entire App Store. Perfection!
This is exactly what I was looking for. It is attractive, simple, and works great. Well worth the IAP.
Broken app. Start button to activate tracking does nothing. And yes Location services are authorized for the app but it doesnt work.
