Pros and cons of Footsteps Pedometer app for iPhone and iPad

Footsteps Pedometer app good for

This app is fine. It works just as advertised.. But I dont think it should be worth .99cents...
Everytime I pulled it out of my pocket and checked if the steps were the same as I was counting, it was dead on. I am very impressed! Highly recommend.
App works great, anyone that says otherwise just isnt using it properly!
This is the perfect app for me! It works immaculately and doesnt let me cheat which is also great. Unfortunately I have one little hate for this app, only that its extremely difficult to save a workout on this app and o usually lose them. Before the update it said save&reset when you wanted to reset it and it no longer does that so I dont know whats wrong with this or if its me being me. A cycling feature would be great on another app or in a future update. Keep up the fantastic work!
I use this app daily for my walking or running. It works pretty good. The downside is if you receive a TM or phone call it stops logging your steps. If you dont notice that you received a TM it is very frustrating. If they fix this bug it would be my favorite app on my phone.
Footsteps is a very reliable program, doesnt cut out on you and has graphs and very good history of your steps. Would recommend this to everyone.

Some bad moments

Dont bother with app. I was out for 1.20 hours and when I checked the app when I got home it said I walked for 29 min. I might be expecting to much for 99 cents but it would be nice to at least work. Im just gonna wait for a update and see if they can make this app work better then I would write a better review
As advertised the app continues to work when its not open. It doesnt do that for me making it useless and a waste of 99cents
Before the latest update, I thought this app was one of my greatest purchases ever! Now, as soon as I lock my phone, the counter stops running and it doesnt track my steps. I should note that this was NOT an issue before I updated. I cant just carry my phone in my purse without auto lock or turn off auto lock.. Please fix this issue!!!!!
I have been using this app for almost two years. Recently, after the most recent update, an issue has cropped up where the step counter runs backwards when I start to walk after a pause, losing as many as 150 steps. Thats tough. I emailed technical support to no avail. They have not replied at all to my request for help. There are many other apps out there, e.g., Walker, Argus, etc. Save your money.
This would be a really great app if it didnt stop working when you got a phone call. I am going to find another app that will run regardless of whether I use the phone or not. I never remember to restart it.
Was promised to see history if buy full version. This was not done. Very disappointed.
