Dont bother

Does not; sync well with NTC, wont let you skip a song without having to stop and map is junked out. Dont. Bother. Period.

Much worse than previous version

Not good at all

Unreliable

Recurring issues with return to default settings. I am repeatedly having to reprogram my preferences. Seems to decide on its own whether its actually going to continue tracking or not. Ridiculous that this was not beta tested.

Stinks

I only use it because of the history. Why they screwed up a perfect app this bad, only they can tell.

Testing needed... bugs

Ex.: Cant choose a power song

Nike + GPS

I loved this app...and then there was change. Most changes have been helpful, but I am finding a lot of glitches...my music no longer pauses when the app pauses, the app pauses for no reason, it sounds like a CD skipping at times, and it announces my mileage sporadically. And sometimes even announces it every .1 ...annoying. Any suggestions?

Update ruined it

I had used this app for my runs most of the year because my running group used it, and enjoyed it. I havent been able to use it for the last 4-5 wks because its broken. Voice keeps on breaking in every 30 sec. Horrible. I run with MapMyRun now. Fine app. And much more reliable than Nike

NOT good

Bring back the old one please ! This one is just not good. Im not sure ill keep it. I could change soon...

Watch app worse than previous Nike SportsWatch

No average pace on the Apple Watch app main screen, no elevation track, no personal records. Please make an update

Doesnt work

Cannot connect to network

What happened Nike?

This app used to be ok but now it is nothing short of terrible. The app constantly crashes or fails to record your distance. It also has removed my ability to see some previous running routes. Overall a terrible app that needs major improvements.

Really bad on Nike Apple Watch

The new Nike Apple Watch is supposed to be this magical partnership between Apple and Nike. If I use the Nike run app it does not consistently use the built in gps . This means you do a run, come home and open up the app to not see the map of your run. I know the gps works because the workout app captures gps information. Who let this thing pass testing ?

TERRIBLE!

Bad update. Cant locate my friends. I created a 6month challenge which my friends and I were in for over 2 months and now its gone! I dont understand why they would do something like this. I understand having an update but dont remove things completely!!

A little sad

Its probably just me, but Im having trouble running music with my run (its running in the background, but no sound) but the most frustrating thing is I cant get it to change to kilometres.

What a huge disappointment

Maps dont show up only some weird star thing Takes forever to load

Bad

Go back to the original

Terrible update

When the app actually works its fine.... But since the update it rarely works. It doesnt record properly or sometimes even when it does record the run it doesnt save it. Use Strava instead!

All of the best features are gone

Ive been using the Nike+ running app for close to 4 years and am very disappointed that so many of the best features have been removed through recent updates. The whole reason that I used this app as opposed to just a running watch is that I could easily see my progress and training across time (the old versions allowed you to flip the screen horizontally to see charts), receive trophies for various accomplishments and listen to (and pause) music and the run itself easily through my headphones. All of these features have been stripped away. Furthermore, the app seems to be pretty buggy recently and I often have a difficult time ensuring the app pauses and starts properly mid run. Quite a few times recently Ive had to manually enter a run after completion because for some reason the app paused and didnt restart. The only reason I still use this app is because Im a creature of habit and Im torn about getting a new app after using this one for almost 4 years. I would definitely not recommend this app (in its current state) to anyone, there are far better alternatives out there.

Nike watch GPS does not Work without the Iphone

The new nike Apple Watch 2 does not work without your iphone with you.... for runners its a pain...

Yes its great

Awesome. Use it every run.
