Pig Works Events App Reviews

This app has lots of whistles and bells, but the main reason I was using it was to track family and friends as they ran the course. App worked great for the first hour, then apparently couldn’t handle the traffic and began to crash after only a minute. Had to keep reopening it over and over. Finally gave up.

Participant time tracking was amazingly on time every time. Saw my runners at six locations and app told when they were going to be there right when they arrived. Weekend info and other information was nice to have at fingertips also for the weekend

There were parts, non-tracking related that were really really good. But the tracking for both the 5K and the half marathon were so far off that it was pointless to even have it.

The most important part of the app is live tracking of the runners. It does not offer accurate live tracking during the recent races and shows half marathoners running full marathons with arbitrary mile times applied to everyone. Embarrassing and useless.

I am sure that app is full of great stuff. I had a very difficult working within the app- eg how to switch from Full to Half . I am sure there is an easy solution somewhere .

Great idea but execution is spotty. Did not track one runner I was following until almost 40 minutes into race. Also sends too many useless alerts.
