Distance, Calories, Running GPS

Distance / Calories are not showing
  • Check that you approved location tracking: Device Settings -> 42K Runner -> Locations -> Always.
  • For calorie tracking, the app needs your weight, age, etc. In the app menu, enter the profile screen () and fill the requested info.

GPS still isn't tracking 
  • If your previous runs were fine, then it could be an issue with the GPS signal.
  • Please be sure that Google Play service is allowed to use location.
  • Also, please check with another GPS tracking app, and compare the results (to see if there is an issue with the GPS on your device)
Running on a Treadmill
The app can be used on a treadmill to guide you (many of our customers do exactly that). Your distance / calories will not be calculated - it relies on the GPS signal to track actual distance in order to do that. To use the treadmill - just run as normal, and stick with the program and you will get to your distance goal.
