Running is extremely minimal and hence supports very limited options. I am trying to understand the market from the perspective that "Should such minimal apps exists?"<p>Kindly check it out and let me know what you think about it? Would you use it? Or I am going completely in the wrong direction.<p>Feedbacks are welcome on usability, look and feel as well.<p>Website: http://hmpgr.com/apps/running

FIrst of all, the app looks fine. It's not super polished or anything, but it's functional and does exactly what it says it does.<p>My problem with this is that most fitness apps are on mobile -- designed for mobile first -- and since I take my iPhone with me when I run, it not only tracks the fact that I'm running, but how far, how fast, and my exact route. I don't have to think "Hmm, I ran 12.6 miles" and then type it in somewhere else. It already knows that and tracks that for me over time.<p>A real groundbreaker would be if I had an app that knew I was doing pushups and counted them for me, knew I was doing crunches and counted them for me, knew I was riding my bike and tracked my velocity and route for me.<p>There are a million apps out there for tracking what exercises I've done today. Other than running and cycling, everything else is done manually. THAT is the real pain point. My phone should be smart enough to KNOW that I'm exercising -- and how. Fix that, and you've got a multi-million dollar app.
