Clean & efficient design. Concise notifications with actually useful information. Well done.
I love the idea of the app but you can only get discounts through L.L.Bean
Doesn’t work!!
While I think this app is really cute the results are fairly inaccurate, I’ve seen other reviews have the problem where their app doesn’t track their hours of outdoor time, I have the exact opposite problem, my app tracks that I’m outdoors when I’m indoors. I noticed this first when it started tracking that I had reached 30 minutes of outdoor time when I’d been sitting in my room on my phone for several hours. I figured that, hey, maybe this was just because I live in a somewhat nature-filled neighborhood, but then I hit my goal of 120 minutes. Sitting in a hotel room. In the middle of a city. So it’s safe to say this app isn’t exactly accurate.
Would like additional stats on where and when we got the minutes.
I’ve been doing the 1000 hours outside challenge for 4-5 years now, so am always tracking outside time. I read about this app and figured I’d give it a go to see how accurate it was. I like the feature where it tells you the nature score of where you are… but as far as recording outside time, it’s very off. After using it for 4 days, averaging 4-5 hours outside per day, the app only recorded that I was outside for 1 hour/day. And only half of that time counted as “quality” time. I was in my (98.5 scored) yard most of the time - mostly gardening. So, I don’t know if it just scored poorly because I was too close to my house part of the time. But I will probably not continue to try to use this app to track time.
This is a cool app but after trying it out for a few weeks, I’m deleting because I don’t change locations frequently enough for my data to vary widely (plus it runs in the background, so I don’t want extra battery drain). I could see this having more useful long-term use for people with a lifestyle that involves more neighborhood/environment diversity. I wish the app itself had an interactive map. You can go to the website to look at map scores by street or address, but if you happen to be in a low-scoring area, there’s no indication of where to turn to get more green exposure unless you’re already familiar with the area.
Great app needs to be a little more informative . It does not seem to always pick up on being in a rural area because it may not be on map yet.
I really enjoyed the idea of having a small tracker to encourage me to spend some more time outside! Downloaded, set it up, and let it be for a week (actually much longer since I forgot about it). I had been spending much time outside for the previous week yet the app still showed 0 for time outdoors. Oh well, was worth a shot
