Pedometer Ultimate GPS+

Going for walks and runs on a regular basis is one of the best ways to burn calories and keep your body from gaining weight. Many of us tend to go overboard with food during the year-end holiday season. But it is never too late to get back to running to get fit again. Pedometer Ultimate GPS is a nice app that turns your iPhone into a GPS stopwatch, capable of tracking your workout sessions.

Pedometer Ultimate GPS+ records time, location, distance, elevation, speed, and even heart rate (you are going to need a heart rate sensor for that). It lets you see your progress on a map. Creating new routes in the app is simple. Planning to reach a certain goal while running? Users can set goals in the app.

Pedometer Ultimate GPS+ offers audio announcements to help you focus on running. The app works great for hill running too as it tracks elevation. You can get Pedometer Ultimate GPS+ for free. But to get the most out of what it has to offer, you will have to upgrade. Still, pretty handy tool to have for daily runners.
