Tempo: Run Log & Insights

Great app but unable to reach developer I’ve loved all the features that this app has after a month of subscribing, and the price is totally reasonable, but I tried to reach the developer regarding an issue with walks being tagged as runs and was unable to get a response. I can only give 4 stars in good conscience as a result.

Great app for runners! I’ve used this app for a couple of years now. It’s just fantastic. You can tell this is designed by a runner. All of the important data points are displayed so well. Love the fact that my data stays private and not sold off. Thank you so much for this app! Highly recommend!

Love this app! This is a great app; it stores all my running data in one easy to navigate format, is easy to access and has been a great tool for me for a few years now. Would recommend.

Perfect running log app I’ve used Tempo for a few years now and love it. It syncs with my smart watch automatically, and keeps track of an amazing variety of data - route maps, distance, speed, cadence, heart rate, totals by week month year etc. if the watch hiccups it’s easy to correct the recorded data by hand. There is literally nothing about this app I do not like, and I am fairly picky. Fantastic piece of software, at a very reasonable price.

Perfect running app that keeps improving I’ve used this app since 2017 & they keep updating it with features that are actually useful. Not useless features just to say they have something in it. It also has a beautiful user interface. I love that they added a way to import your own workout training plan.

Why no iPad version? I like the app and have been using it for several years. I’m curious as to why no iPad version, even if it was just a bigger iPhone display? All of the data seems to be available as somehow I do have an older version on my iPad, but now it refuses to update as it isn’t available.

Needs a better workout builder and connected planner Reading that the app had the capability to build WorkoutKit running workouts and a planner sounded appealing to me. Upon closer use of both tools, they fall flat. The workout builder works with the standard set of WorkoutKit rules. However, it arbitrarily limits maximum power alerts to 240W. While building up interval workouts, each interval takes a number of inputs. If a mistake is made in entering data in an interval there is not a way to edit it. One must delete and re-enter the interval details again. If you manage to successfully enter a long and complex interval workout and want to modify one thing about it, you’re out of luck. Delete and start the tedious task of selecting and entering all the values again. Assuming you get workouts built to your liking, the next step is to plan them out. The workout planner is a glorified CSV. You pull out a separate spreadsheet and fill in the weeks long details using the provided syntax. Once imported in the app, it displays the information back at you. It makes no connection between the plan and the workouts built within the app. This is a large gap in functionality. The app looks interesting for looking at personal running stats, but needs a bunch more work to get the workouts and planner in a workable and symbiotic way.

It just gets better all the time! I’ve been using Tempo Pro for many years and the updates amaze and inspire me. Would love it if it would calculate total elevation gain as the app I use during runs and hikes doesn’t send that info to Apple Health. I can always add it in notes from the other behemoth running app; but having it on the first page would be fun. A feature for then graphing total elevation and seeing time instead of distance in the cumulative graph would be cool too. Maybe surprise me with those updates? Love the update that lets me graph similar runs depending on how I tag them. Trail runs, pavement, usual route, low heart rate, etc. My favorite app for seeing what I’ve done and what I’m doing now. The update of the colors and layout is a work of art! First place I look after a run.

The best running app I’ve been running everyday for over three years. I found this app when I first got an Apple Watch a couple years ago and loved it, but I decided I wanted a more “pro” sports watch and switched to Garmin so I stopped using Tempo for about 8 months. Garmin watches are good and their app is fine, but it honestly does not compare to what Tempo does. I recently came back to the Apple Watch and using Tempo and this is by far a superior app to anything I’ve ever used. I’m so impressed with the developer, they clearly understand the data that runners want and need. The subscription is ridiculously cheap for all the functionality you get. The only thing that would make this app better is if you could export a gpx file. Otherwise, it’s perfect.
