Nike+ GPS App for iPhone
Posted on 23. Sep, 2010 by Jonathan Cherry in Technology
Since it’s it’s inception – we’ve been playing around with Nokia’s SportTracker, which is basic but works ok. Now however Nike have entered the running app market with the Nike+ GPS App for iPhone.
The new Nike+ inserts your path into Google Maps as well as tracking the usual stats like pace, distance, and calories burned. Nike+ also offers voice feedback, letting you know how your run is going, and syncs with Nike’s 3-million-strong NikePlus.com community, Twitter, and Facebook. All of that is also offered by Runkeeper, but Nike+ has in-run motivational messages from trainers and celebrities! [More here]
It’s kinda taking this running app space to a whole new level.
The app is available for the usual collection of iPhone, iPod devices as well as the iPad? Can’t imagine why the hell you’d want to run clutching an iPad, but if that strikes you as a clever thing to do – then great. Just do it with the iPad already.
We don’t own any of the above iStuff – so we’ll just have to stick to SportsTracker.
