The app works for anyone who does any distance-based fitness activity like walking, cycling or running. It currently has more than 12 million users. With Endomondo, the app uses GPS to track you and you can get audio feedback for every km or mile while you work out. You can track any type of outdoor sport information like calories burned, duration, speed, and distance. You can also enter your workout manually if you perform a weight training session, a spinning class, or run on the tread mill. You’ll also use this app as a social network, with a newsfeed showing your friends’ recent activities and workouts. To start a session, pick the sport or activity. Then you can either create a workout or select the sport as-is. Created options include a goal to complete your distance in a certain period of time, or improving on a previously-logged workout. You can even compete against a friend’s Endomondo workout. Touch the green Start button or tap the countdown button. The countdown gives you the option to get into position and secure your phone where it will be safe. One of the greatest parts of this app is that you can see a map view of our progress or see calories burned, your speed, pace, and distance. It supports wireless cycling cadence accessories as well as heart rate monitors. If you have a Bluetooth wired headset you can hear your audio feedback through that.
You can either upload your workout to Facebook or Endomondo. The app was updated to Version 7.0 on November 5, 2012. The update improved the design, GPS filtering, and added in-app purchases of the features you’d like from the PRO version. The app is also now compatible with iPhone 5. You can get Endomondo PRO here.
