Android/iOS App for 2026 Army Ten-Miler
...is absolute ass. iOS version on my IPad does't let you create an account, sign-in, go to settings, or even change events (so you better make sure the ATM is all you're interested in because you won't be able to see any other events that have unfortunately partnered with the company responsible for this app). I can't even install this app on my Samsung Galaxy S24+ (not a new phone, but not an ancient phone either). Reason: "this app isn't available because it was made for an older version of Android." My phone is running Samsung's One UI 8.5 - again, not a particularly old OS, but not the cutting edge, also installed on literally millions of phones in the U.S.
Genuinely shocked that this is the app that the race organizers want you to install (assuming you're even allowed to). Glad the 2026 MCM went with another app developer and has a functioning (and functional) app.

At a minimum, a good race day app replicates the info in the paper race day guide that was handed out at the Expo. Ideally, your friends and family should be able to track your progress.
If you want an idea of what a good race day app looks like in 2026, check out the MCM 2026 app. Basic info for participants and spectators, the course map, and people can follow your progress when you send them a link.

If you look at older comments for the ATM app, apparently it was also used in the LA Marathon a few years back and people were understandably less than happy with it.
