Pixel XL2 works fine, love how you can download and use offline. Recently went from California to Utah, up to Montana, then back to California through Washington and Oregon. Found places to run all along the way.

So buggy, honestly not sure what's going on. Can't go back after looking at trail. I have to manually close app and restart.

Clear and easy to use interface. Not exactly comprehensive set of trails but certainly good enough.

Easy use. Love and use the elevation profiles when choosing training routes. Wish you had more zoom capabilities when you are on route but without signal

Great to find local running trails but LET ME DOWNLOAD THE GPX. I basically use this app to find a trail. And then I go to the website to download the gpx so I can upload to my watch or whatever. Its incredibly dumb you cant download through the app.

Love the content in the app, super helpful for discovering trails to run. As a free app it's plenty well featured however things like offline high res maps and flexible route planning would make this six stars.

Far and away the most useful app for hiking and mountaineering I have ever come across. There is a reason that race directors for ultramarathons provide TrailRunProject links on their website...it's everything you need.

Great app! Saved my hide a few times running trails and has been great for discovering new trails or trails when I travel. I wish it were easier to add trails and it does draw on the battery hard. Use sparingly if battery life is a concern.

The idea of this app is great. Would love a trail running guide with helpful information about trails that are recommended for trail running rather than hiking or backpacking. It seems like many of these descriptions are just lifted from hiking resources (like WTA) or people post from backpacking trips. Good hiking trails don't always = great trail running locales. Sometimes the "Trail Running Notes" even say "not good for trail runners". Then why is it on TRAIL RUN project?

Cant figure out how to just search area when in a new state. Not user friendly, click on trail, sometimes the trail description sometimes not, not able to drop a pin and do a custom trail. If this is all possible, well it is not intuitive...

Horrible app. Shows pts on a map, w/numbers, but can't access run name, nor see what the runs entail. Large list of runs, but you can't check to find out where located on the map (even w/run map pts!) nor how difficult. Should be able to ID a run, see pt on on map, see name, how hard, and everything else. No way to look at a run and go back to prev. map. Reverts to launch screen so you have to start again. Even w/GPS, map search shows runs in OTHER states! W/out recoding, dont waste your time.

Awesome app! I'm training to run my first ultra Marathon and I'm able to find excellent trails to train on. Even races that I plan on racing here in Arizona.

This is a great tool to find new trails or explore areas quickly when on vacation. I love the color coded trails and ease of quickly looking at distance, difficulty and elevation. I wish I could search an area without having to find it on the map, also I wish that paved trails were colored differently. I like that they are on there but if I want to trail run it is hard to find if they are paved easily.

I love this app. I do have two complaints or more like requests. 1) it would be awesome if you could plan a run by linking up trails and having the app save it for you as your own trail. 2) when I recorded a run, it seems to undercount distance because it doesn't track all the zigs and zags that the map can't capture. I think this deserves 5 stars anyway (particularly given the price) but would love to see these 2 things addressed.

Real trails, and only trails. No "Tuesday 5 miler" route that leaves from someone's home and follows unmarked/private "trails" (i.e., sidewalks or paths through back yards). It's built by fellow hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who seem to understand the importance of conservation. The app lets you track your progress on the trails profile giving you a sense of elevation left to climb or descend, as well as distance to the end.

Great app for finding trails. Their obsession with pics is annoying as hell. Why required to upload a pic with a run (lower the barrier to people uploading. Don't increase it. I take pics with my phone. I upload trails on my computer). Now they're trying to cram them in to the bottom screen where I'm trying to see and zoom in on elevation. Now I can't. I know the developers need to stay busy but can you keep them busy expanding what the app can do, or just leave well enough alone?
