1 year agoLook at animated movies. They’re giant collaborations of hundreds of mostly anonymous people, basically large software development projects. They hire stars to do the voices, not because they’re all that great as voice actors (trained voice actors can often be had cheaper), but to be the face of the film in public and promote it.
That is, the skill of a Hollywood star is not really anything to do with the product, but simply being famous, recognizable, and likeable. They are a brand, like Mickey Mouse or Colonel Sanders (once an actual person!).
The primary function of the app is to record a GPS activity with your phone. If you already have a GPS watch and like using it, I don’t see the point in using both. And I’m not sure about Coros, but Garmin at least give you the option to manually download your GPS traces directly from the watch without using their web services if you’re concerned about privacy.
