Subject: phone apps for training
I had seen an advertisment in one of the mag's about "ecrumb" from RoadID. I tried to look it up on both the Iphone and the Droid and couldn't find it. Has anyone else found it, use it, love it, hate it?

Its an app that tracks you (as you carry the phone) on training rides and runs. Gives a text to predetermined phone numbers if you stop for longer than 5 minutes and allows your phone to stay open (not locked with a password) in case someone needs it to call for help if you get hurt/hit/attacked/etc.

Is there another app out there like this for the Droid?

What is it call for the iphone? I have tried to look it up as "ecrumb" and couldn't find it. Does the app work as advertised? Do you like it / hate it?

Thanks

Search "road id" in the app store from your phone.

I tried it once. It did what it was designed to do. However, the battery on my 4s didn't last on a 4 hour bike ride. Wife was worried.
