Nike+ Running App Gets New Run Summary, Shoe Tagging, More

The Nike+ Running app has been updated with a new run summary, shoe tagging, and various other improvements.

The most popular running app on iTunes just got a fresh new look for summer. Map your runs, track your progress and get the motivation you need to reach your goals. No sensor or additional products needed, just grab your phone and go.

Features:
- From the trail to the treadmill, your iPhone's GPS and accelerometer accurately record your distance, pace, and time. In-run audio feedback lets you know these metrics at every mile, so you can stay focused on your run.


- Get in-ear cheers from your friends on Facebook and Path when you broadcast that you've started a run. Tag the Facebook friends who you ran with and share a map of your route with friends and family.

- Have a song that gets you pumped? Set up PowerSongs to give yourself a boost with the tap of a button.

- Syncing your run to the Nikeplus.com website allows you to view your
maps on a larger screen, set a new goal, and find Nike+ Top Routes in your
area. Check it out.

- Localized app language support in Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Korean,
Portuguese, and Spanish.


What's New In This Version:
- Get into a run even faster. You can now tap the run button from anywhere in the app. And off you go.

- See how your last run stacks up against your previous seven, and get fresh insights based on your latest activity every time you come back to the app.

- Swipe downwards on the new Home Screen to view your next moves. From picking your PowerSongs to challenging one of your personal bests, there's always something to make your running experience better than before.

- Visualize your runs side-by-side and see your progress with a new landscape history view.

- Our new Run Summary makes it easier to view your route, tag how you felt, and note your terrain. And don't worry about the weather; we'll automatically tag it for you.

- Rotate your phone while viewing the Run Summary to see the breakdown of your run into mile splits.

- Introducing shoe tagging: Type in the name of your running shoes to track the distance they're logging and see when it's time to lace up a new pair. You're never done running, but your shoes might be.

You can download Nike+ Running from the App Store for free.
