I don't know if the bug is still there, but since Nike Run Club didn't save my beautiful 25km run on my Apple Watch, I can't even look at it and definitely don't recommend it...According to Googling at the time, it was "normal" that it happened.
Yes, NRC had big flies... X-running fell out of me in the last 3 years. The last few months seem to be stable. Not at all Strava (albeit paid), but better in my opinion.
I have been using RunKeeper for over 8 years
SportsTracker only.
I've always used Nike, but since I got the watch, I only use Apple Workout, I don't trust other apps and I'm just afraid that it won't save some of my performance.
Adidas Running almost without a problem for me. Sometimes the GPS goes out, but I think it was due to a low battery.
