The Best Running App You Didn't Know You Needed!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Backroute! I traveled all the way from Marquette, in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, to Los Angeles to run the Nike After Dark Half Marathon, and this app made an already unforgettable experience even more special!

My friends and family back home were able to track me in real time, but the absolute BEST part was hearing their messages of encouragement throughout the race! Running alongside thousands of incredible women while hearing the voices of my favorite people cheering me on from thousands of miles away was something I’ll never forget.

I’m also incredibly grateful for the complimentary Premium membership provided for the race. What a generous gesture!

Backroute is so much more than a tracking app. It brings your support system along for every mile, no matter how far away they are. I’ll absolutely be using it for future races and recommending it to everyone in my running community!

Every runner needs this app! 🩷🏃‍♀️

I loved this during my race! all my friends and family left me massages and it was super nice to have all the data after the race! definitely recommend and will be using during my training too

the voice messages 🥹

hearing my family + friends really pushed me through my first halfy! what a great app and i can’t wait to see how better it gets!

Fitness With A Purpose

What a fantastic concept! Love how Backroute combines fitness, community, and giving back to charity all in one app. Creative, inspiring, and definitely worth checking out!

10% Fee on charity donations? Omg

App looks nice but it is SLOW asf. But what caught my eye was the absolute GREED on charging 10% fee on top of the stripe fee on charity donations. App just wants to pretend like it cares about charities while taking a BIG fee when you try to donate. Another manufactured feel good startup

Response from developer

Hey Nathan, Backroute takes 0% on charity donations. Every donation is processed by Pledge.to, and 100% of what you give goes to the nonprofit, we don't see a cent of it. The 10% you saw is Pledge's optional tip on their checkout page: it's pre-selected, but you can change it or set it to $0 and your full donation still goes through.

Great app!

Such a fun and interactive app! Came from using STRAVA and love the opportunity the app gives to me more customizable! Found the app through TikTok (and the builder himself!) and has been super cool, easy to navigate! Congrats on such a great app!

Amazing concept!

This app has gotten me fully into running! Best way to track cardio, music, and fundraising all at once.

Fun Run App

Honestly wanted to try something new to track my runs/walks. I like how it traces my route so I can share it on social!

About time!

I’ve been waiting for a social workout app to meet new people and this is it! So interactive and cool way to socialize! The color schemes are also a dope bonus! 🙂

Best new health app

Just downloaded this app and am loving it so far. Tons of great features that I can’t wait to use more of! 🏃‍♂️🏃🏃‍♀️

Made for runners!

Love that I can connect with the community and meet new people to challenge. I also like that I can put my own touch on my workouts with how customizable my posts can be. It also lets you note the gear you use which is super helpful for me to reference what I used. Such a fun app to track your workouts!

Love the route colors

Love that I get to choose my route color and the cute explosion at the end of my trail.

The social/community part of the app is also really cool
