RunMonster is the premiere app for recording your workouts using your iPhone’s GPS. RunMonster shows your time, pace, distance, and calories burned as you exercise, all overlaid on a beautiful map. And it’s the only exercise app that’s smart enough to detect whether you’re running, biking, or walking. It can even tell if you’ve exercised on the same route twice!

New in version 1.1 (iOS 4 support):

✭ Multitasking - Take a call, answer a text, or otherwise exit the app, and RunMonster will continue recording your workout.
✭ Retina display artwork - Every image in the app has been upgraded to look beautiful on iPhone 4.
✭ Improved maps - Pinch-to-zoom is now supported, as well as alternate map types such as satellite view.

Features:

✭ Record your runs, walks, and bike rides using your iPhone’s built-in GPS
✭ Check your stats, including distance, pace, time, and calories burned, at any point during your workout
✭ See a live Google Terrain View map of your route
✭ Let RunMonster intelligently name your workouts based on nearby street names
✭ Watch as RunMonster automatically groups together similar workouts
✭ Let RunMonster automatically detect whether you ran, biked, or walked
✭ Examine your splits and other detailed statistics after you’ve finished a workout
✭ View your full workout history on your phone, grouped by week or route
✭ Relax as your workouts are backed up automatically to RunMonster.com
✭ Export your workouts via email

Upgrade to RunMonster Pro to get these additional features:

✭ Hear your workout statistics read aloud during your workouts
✭ Customize the announcement interval and select which stats you would like to hear
✭ See gorgeous, interactive visualizations of your workout data
✭ Control your music library without leaving RunMonster
✭ Use gestures to easily switch between songs as you exercise
✭ See your pace for each song you listened to during your workout

Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
