HardFox SportsTracker 1.0.0.8
Windows Phone users have at their disposal a few applications that are especially tailored for such purposes and HardFox SportsTracker is one of them. Covering a variety of disciplines, this utility can help you monitor a handful of important factors that define a workout.
Appealing and well organized interface
The interface of this app has a professional look, with nicely designed graphics and several easy to read displays, each corresponding to a different parameter you want to be informed about.
All the operational commands are close at hand, for ease of access, while the navigation through the application's menus is smooth at all times.
Set goals and create workouts then review the data
Configuring a workout is a very simple task, as all you have to do is choose a discipline and, optionally, set the goal, which can refer to the number of calories burned, a distance you want to cover or a certain amount of time for the whole exercise.
The information shown on the screen is updated in real-time and once the training is complete or you stop it, the results can be saved and reviewed from the dedicated area of the app. The built-in map allows you to view the course or simply track your current position.
HardFox SportsTracker allows you to save your personal profile and choose the desired measurement units that will be in use. You can also configure the system to allow the utility to run even under the locked screen and keep the screen alive, so you can monitor the data at any moment.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
Judging by the looks, this app is a winner, as it has a very nice GUI, visually appealing and practical as well, with some animated icons and buttons here and there. A few customizations for the users to apply themselves would be a nice addition in this area. |
Function7
HardFox SportsTracker supports a variety of activities, but there are still only a few disciplines it can be used for. The real-time data it provides is a positive aspect about it, but the fact that it cannot use fractions for measurement units, like 1.5 kilometers, for example is a disadvantage. |
Security9
This utility plays it safe all the way, as it only needs the location services to be activated in order to fetch the user's current position and provide accurate data on the maps. |
Battery4
Keeping HardFox SportsTracker running with the screen alive at all times will drain the battery very fast, but the other usage scenarios also involve a very high resource usage and an increased power consumption. |
Price9
For users who intend to use it with one of the supported activities, this app is a pretty good deal, as it offers a nice set of features wrapped in a great looking interface, all without any cost. |
Compatibility8
This tool is made to work fine on most Windows Phone handsets out there, as it supports any device that is powered by version 7.5 or above of the operating system. |
