Is Mapmyride available for Blackberry?

This does not make sense. I want to try the BB app and compare with AllSportGPS before cancelling my Trimble account... seems that MapMyRide does not...

Also... would love the ability to update the Daily Log from my iPhone. It would be so much easier to way myself and then just type it into my iphone then to have to come to the website and fight my way around the crazy navigation here.
I love the Run App, but there is one main problem I've discovered: The Voice Feedback function is one of the main reasons I switched from RunKeeper, but it doesn't seem to work most of the time. I'll set it to voice prompt me at every 5 minutes, then I'll go to the Record tab to start recording and while I'm running I won't hear the voice. After my run I check the settings and the voice settings have reset to 20 minutes. Very Annoying.
I've used the app 3 times thus far. The first time didn't work so well. Kept cutting off and when I restarted it, it didn't pick back up from the correct distance only the correct time. The second time was a bit better...the time was correct but the distance was slightly off. On my last run, after 1.5 miles, it shut off and when restarted (resumed) it jumped to 4.0 miles but the time stayed correct. I like this application as many of you do but the fact that it will not stay on for an en
Is there a FAQ page? Half the time it records my time ok, but not the distance. You added the screen lock,,,but something a little more detailed than the user guide so far would be great. Who can get it to read the GPS/distance for the whole ride?
I like this app, when it will work. It worked fine for a walk I did one early morning, but the two times I've used it for a ride it hasn't done very well.
For instance, today I rode about 13 miles-- and it only captured 3.5. I had to go into the website and re-create my route by hand, as it were, instead of simply uploading my ride from my iphone. I can't stop every 2 minutes or whatever to make sure it's working, that sort of defeats the purpose!
How do I get to see my pace (minutes per mile) AFTER I have completed the run? While, i like seeing it in progress, from a stats perspective, I need to know easily, without having to calculate what my pace was.
I think the above comments answer my question...but maybe its been fixed...I am doing a virtual marathon and need to upload my finished route. But it takes me 5.5 hours to run a marathon and it seems that I have to leave the app on and the phone and iTunes cannot be used...is this true? I think if I have my iphone not go to sleep for 5.5 hours the battery will die....can the app run in the background? I want to be able to use the phone and iTunes with out having to Resume Workout.
Is it possible to zoom in on the map when you're looking at a saved route? It just shows me the whole route--not helpful for biking when you have to make turns on small streets.
What is the difference between the three applications? I can't see any between ride, run and fitness is there one? Is there a plan for them to differ? Why Three?
Does anybody have it working in Europe? I tried both in Italy (Milan) and in Germany (Munich) in open spaces but it seems it's not abel to catch up the gps signal. Thanks for your feedback. Ivan
No way to use this if one runs on a treadmill I guess since you are not actually moving forward? I know it will track the time but not kilometers/miles?
The only difference I noticed between the app working and not, was whether I was on the 3G network - all the problems were using EDGE.
Fix this please!!!! I really want to use this application, but I don't think I can stop and save data and restart every two minutes on a regular basis.
Literally, I could see the time elapse and I know it was every two minutes, which is insanely aggravating over an hourlong hike. Then I had to open up 11 separate routes and stitch them together to get an accurate picture of what my hike had been.
I do have to say, though - this is a great app when it works, esp. in a rural area where hiking trails aren't on satellite or topo maps.
Great app, when it works! One day this week it worked just fine on a walk I took near my home. However, this afternoon I took a hike in a rural area and for whatever reason the application wouldn't work properly. Instead of loading the screen with the lock/unlock icons, the application would simply quit, without tracking any more data. When I'd relaunch I'd have a choice to save or restart the hike - which at least allowed me to save the data, but I had to restart the hike *every 2 minutes*.
- Short battery life while using GPS: a 10K run took my battery from "nearly full" down to critically low. Not running iTunes helps a fair amount, I ran 18K this morning with "only" about 50% battery consumption.
- GPS errors: Anomalous waypoints result in over-estimated distances. Looking closely at the mapped route on the mapmyfitness.com site typically shows a number of shortish back-and-forth segments. a 17.5K run was reported
I had the problem saving and tried about 5 times before is saved the first .55 miles of my 10.5 mile rids. I had to login again in order to save the ride. I think the tracking quit when my phone rang. I also see a straight line at the start of the ride. I know that it is wrong because it is a winding ride around a lake. I will try again to see if I can get it to work for the whole ride.
