For anyone using this app, does it ever lock up on you? I have been using it to log my exercise and the darn thing keeps shutting my phone down when I try to view my previous records. It is SO frustrating!

I have tried to uninstall/reinstall with no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
I use it. I have had a couple problems. The newest one is that sometimes when logging a run and listening to music it will cause my phone to reboot (Droid Incredible w/ Inc Re-engineered ROM). The other problem sounds similar to yours. After a run when I try to view the route or exit the app it will freeze and have to be force closed. I think this is a problem where it becomes unresponsive while it is uploading or downloading data the runkeeper servers. If I am patient enough it will eventually start responding ... but usually I get frustrated and start banging on the home key like an angry monkey until it force closes.

The app also has a couple other issue regarding GPX time stamps. If you export a run to GPX it messes up time stamp because it writes local time instead of UTC per the GPX standard.

Overall I like the app and their website but it does have a few quirks.
 
I also have a Droid Incredible. I hope they can get the bugs worked out because the app is great. A friend of mine suggested using one by Nike? I may have to try that one if this one doesn't get resolved.
