iSkate provides all the information you need on the track. Our stylish user interface combined with maximum ease of use create a new experience on the skates that has never been done before.
FEATURES
- Accurate values for current speed, average speed, maximum speed, total distance, trip distance, current altitude, climbed altitude, burned calories as well as trip time. Units can be set to US or metric.
- Watch yourself automatically move on the map and zoom in on your trail
- Receive your trips via email (KML und GPX) and review them at home (e.g. with Google Earth) or share them with other skaters
- Suspend, pause and resume for trips allows you to receive calls or take a break
- iPod function can be used together with iSkate
Based on countless test drives and refinement we calculate all values with maximum precision of the built in GPS. You have never seen your actual performance on the skates before -- there has not been anything like a skate computer before!
For the full experience we recommend to use it in an iPod pocket on your jacket or another pocket where the phone can directly catch GPS signals from the sky.
BUT THERE IS ONE MORE THING!
A MAP! Including trails! In the cities, nearly all streets and side-trails are there: Somebody from the huge OpenStreetMap community has already mapped the trail for you! A community of more than 150.000 people is constantly mapping trails around the globe!
This really brings skating to the professional level! Our iSkate App makes perfect use of what the iPhone can do with GPS, connectivity and the amazing screen resolution.
And watching your tracks at home is more fun then ever, especially after a hard workout!
GET FREE UPDATES SOON!
Our community is thrilled by the maps and the intuitive and sleek UI. We are eager to get feedback and implement cool new stuff. We care about your opinion! Check it out and let us know what you like and if there is anything you miss!
iSkate - SKATING WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN!
Please note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
Pros and cons of iSkate - GPS skating computer for inline and roller skates app for iPhone and iPad
iSkate - GPS skating computer for inline and roller skates app good for
I love this skating app! I am a hard core outdoor street skater and the app is so easy to use to track your skates. All standard metrics are tracked including calories consumed.
Keep track of your skate via mapping and runtime stats as you go with voice feedback.
They do a good job up keeping up to date with IOS. I have been using it a few years now regularly.
Fantastic app in my view. 5 stars for sure.
The app works as advertised with high accuracy (compared to my home skate track) and very stable for me! I use it with the Belkin Armband from the Apple online store and can even listen to my iPod music while I use the app.
The best thing that I did not even dream about: Whatching my rides in Google Earth is so much fun... :-) Now I can show cool tracks to people that have not been there.
This gets my full recommendation!
Tried it for a while now - skating the boardwalk is fun! Is much better than computer I had for my skates. That involved changing the wheels, heaps of cabling, etc. With iSkate I have speed plus map track without these hassles, just attached to my arm :) Works pretty good. Asked support about some feature (lock screen, so not touch sens) and they replied theyll take care about it soon. (otherwise u have to be careful not to touch anything while recording..). Two thumbs up here.
If you like skating around central park in NYC or anywhere else in the world you will like this app as much as I do. I carry it in an armband so I can always see my current speed at a glance. It also shows live values for distance, altitude and even calories! Plus you can email your trail to proof your workout which is really amazing. If you did not get it yet from review: I truly love this app and I cant wait for updates. What about showing nearby skaters in the map???
Ok I have used this app for a while and this new version is improved. my only complaint is the mapping is poor and hard to use when you want to find a route back home compared to the Iphone map software the phone uses. It takes way to for the map features like enlarge or pan etc....
All other features work very well with the new version.
For $10 I wished the map was better. Perhaps the next version will improve the map.
P.S. I contacted the support and it took a couple days but I got a good reply that explained what I asked about. That is always a good sign from a developer.
With the new version I can recommend it now!
Thank you for creating this app just for skating!
I have a few requests/suggestions:
Want ability to post results to FB.
Like that I can name tracks.
Distance reading seems to be more accurate than SportyPals skate mode.
GPS loads faster than SportyPal app. Good job!
Dont like how you have to hit "sure?" twice to end a session. Seems awkward ... little confusing.
While I do like the ability to pause a session, when I pause a session, sometimes it asks me if I want to "resume", sometimes it does not. Consistency issue? Not sure what is happening there.
Some bad moments
This app is terrible! Im in Canada and it would have been helpful to know that the map doesnt work here before I paid for it! I would love tech support but that doesnt exist either.
Waste of $$$!!!
Having the only Option for GPS tracking to be Always (even when not using the app) or Never makes what would otherwise be a terrific app a privacy invading POS.
Ok, I liked the app a lot until you came out with version 5.0. Now the app doesnt open even after rebooting my phone. Sorry about leaving a poor review but I cant find a way to send an email letting you know its broken.
The e-mail in this version is not working for me, can you guys fix it please
The worst app ever. Can I get my 10$ back?
No I cant. Dont buy it.
