Runner is a spin-off from Hiker (https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/a230c855-7adf-415a-bb1c-289f27304563). The basic idea was to deliver similar functionality but in a running app. I have initially created two screens of 3 fields similar to the standard Run app. In additional to this 3 graph screens and the route run is plotted.

So far the feedback that I've had is to try and fit 6 fields onto one screens as switching screen when running is more difficult. While this is true the other consideration is keeping the text large so it can be read while running. I will review different options and may produce a number of mockups.

Future updates to the app will include:
  • Lap notification screen allowing you to review the previous lap.
  • Refinement of the pace calculation as this can affect the pace graph.

If you have any other suggestions then please let me know and I'll see what I can accommodate.

    Hi John
    I really like this app, but would love to have average pace rather than pace or lap pace as a data field (or as well as!). I know it's on the graph, but to me, after elapsed time and distance, it's the most important metric. I know you were previously looking at this - any joy? thanks!
