Nike+ Running just got even more motivating. Now you can add friends and see how you stack up. Keep tabs on who's logging the most runs and miles, then get out there and beat them.

- From the trail to the treadmill, your phone's GPS and accelerometer accurately record your distance, pace, and time. In-run audio feedback lets you know these metrics at every mile, so you can stay focused on your run.
- No sensor or additional products needed, just grab your phone and go.
- Get in-ear cheers from your friends on Facebook when you broadcast that you’ve started a run. Tag the friends you ran with and share a map of your route with friends and family.
- Have a song that gets you pumped? Set up PowerSongs to give yourself a boost with the tap of a button.
- Need extra motivation? Add a widget to your phone’s home screen to show when you ran last, display your total mileage, and for even quicker access into a run.
- Some features such as Share Run and Cheer Me On require users to be connected to a wireless network for full functionality. Please note that continued use of GPS running in the background could dramatically decrease battery life.

- Need help? Get support at nikeplus.com/support.

FAQs

Q: Where does nutrition and exercise science for the app come from?
A: We have a dedicated team of dieticians, exercise scientists, personal trainers, and behavior experts that program their knowledge into the Noom Weight Loss Coach.
Q: What if I already use CardioTrainer or Calorific?
A: If you already use CardioTrainer, Noom will NOT erase your data, and you can transfer it using your permanent account. Noom will not share data from CardioTrainer or Calorific, so if you want to record new tracks or food, be sure to do so from Noom.
Q: Why does Noom want access to my Google account and contacts? What about other permissions?
A: Your Google account is used only to create a permanent account so you can backup and recover your data. The contacts are only used IF you want to connect with friends who also use Noom to track their activity — it’s not used otherwise. This information is not stored anywhere, nor will it ever be used for any other purpose. More information about the permissions requested by this application: http://goo.gl/lGnJ4
