I love Stride - my colleagues and I compete to own the territory around our office; great way to get everyone active.

Love using this with my garmin, gives me the push to get out and explore new terrain and claim more tiles, I will rule Nottingham eventually 😂

Any app that turns running into a game gets my vote. I played with this right back in its early days, and that initial seed of inspiration has turned into a very slick running game. See you out there!

Highly recommended gamified running app! :) Would recommend if you're excited about adding an additional fun element to your jogging routines.

By far my favorite app for all my running, hiking and walking activities. Highly motivating and continuously being improved. Keep up the good work!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼✨

Such a clever idea, I love this app.

Nice, lean concept. Easy to integrate to be played simultaneously with other location based games :)

Really excited to try this! I agree a vibration when a hex is collected sounds like a great idea.

Very fun, the competition is excellent motivation for my runs!

I have been running with Stride since it began as Run An Empire. It lost its way for while, but is now back to the basics, which are the really fun parts of the game! I love running, and Stride adds an extra layer of achievement to my runs. Plus, it encourages me to go running in new areas, and claim new territory, instead of running around the same park every time (although I need to keep running around my park as well so no one else steals it!). A great game, with new features being released regularly, so I would highly recommend it to everyone that wants to spend more time outdoors. My vote for the next feature is to be able to message other runners, so you can meet like minded people and create teams (not just from your existing friends). Well done to the Stride developers - all the best for the launch!!

Sentiments from many friends and colleagues whom I've gotten onboard..one in particular stands out! "This (Stride) is just what I need to get me off my @$!" I already notice quicker launch times and smoother operability in version 2 and I'm excited to continue using it. Thanks to @ben_barker and the Stride team.

Hi. Its a awesome app and I support it as a paying user. Could you please add a sound or vibration when a hex i captured?

This looks very interesting. Unfortunately, I don't have a Garmin or Apple watch... Any plans for a Strava connection? That's what I use...

Nice idea! Is it working in Europe (french here)?

Hey ?makers, is Stride limited to a certain region or does it work globally? Is there any way to integrate data from my tracking apps (e.g. Strava)? @fariz_hakim check this out!

Gotta give this a try now when I switch from XC skiing to running! Looks like a funny idea! Congrats! ?makers

I totally like Stride! First of all, I have instantly got back a wish and will to activate myself again due its' interesting ways of dealing and such a nice motivation for a healthy and yet entertaining activities! Big congrats on the launch! ^_^ I especially like friends' challenges! Is a number of team members limited? :D

Great app, been using her for a couple of months for hiking and walking. Good way to combine a little bit competition and fitness.

This app is life changing, I'm so glad that I discovered Stride, it's the Strava of 2022. Stride has got me (and the whole family!) out and about more and the timing couldn't be better with the spring weather starting to hit. Love the updates and responsive team, looking forward to it continuing to get better and better!
