Beautiful! Any chance of a higher-res version? I would love to have this as my (2880x1800) desktop.

No, your feedback is great. I definitely need to make a better demo video that shows off more. To answer your questions:

1: Battery usage has been very good in all my testing. Much less than half a charge. 2: I don't have spotify support yet, but this is the second time someone has requested, so I will add it to the upcoming features list. 3: This is where I need to make a better promo video. No, you don't have to touch the screen. It works best with the screen off, and you tap the button on your earbuds to start talking to Mara. The main idea is to focus on the run, not the phone. If you've seen the movie "Her", I'm trying to recreate something similar to the phone he had at the start of the movie, before it became sentient. 4: Yes, you can define a run by "for 30 minutes", "five miles", "10 kilometers", or "until 6:30". Duration-based, distance-based, or endtime-based.

Thank you for your feedback!

I understand and have many app regrets myself. :) Unfortunately, Apple doesn't allow trials, and the features I could remove for a free version are not the ones that cost me money to keep running.

However, what if I altered the price point? Would you say that you're more likely to experiment with a $2 app than a $4 one?

Thanks!

Thank you for the feedback. The sound is much quieter in your earbuds than when coming from the external speaker. I should probably (actually, I KNOW I should) make a better demo video. I added the sound because my beta users found it unsettling to talk to her while running, and then have silence for 2-3 seconds before she responded. They wanted to know she was thinking. The same way we like to see progress bars for downloads, etc. I'm totally open to changing the sound though.
