## What is FinishPoint?

FinishPoint is the perfect running companion for out-and-back routes and loops.

Set your target distance, start your run, and let the app guide you — 
whether you're doing a classic turnaround or a full loop back to the start.

Now with Apple Watch support — track your run right from your wrist.

KEY FEATURES

• Siri & Shortcuts — start a run with your voice or from the Shortcuts app,
  on both iPhone and Apple Watch

• Turnaround or Loop mode — choose a classic out-and-back with a halfway 
  turn, or run a full loop and let the app count down your entire distance

• Run History — every run saved automatically with distance, time, pace, 
  steps, cadence, and elevation

• Screen lock — lock the display during your run to prevent accidental taps; 
  all stats stay visible, hold to unlock

• 3–2–1 countdown — a quick countdown before every run so you're ready 
  to go the moment the timer starts

• Apple Watch app — start and track your run directly from your watch, 
  no phone needed during your run

• Live Activity on your Lock Screen — see your distance, pace, and progress 
  without unlocking your phone

• Haptic feedback — double vibration every kilometer, triple vibration when 
  it's time to turn back (works even when locked)

• Real-time stats — distance, elapsed time, pace, steps, cadence, 
  and elevation gain/descent

• Configurable presets — set your favourite distances (1 km to 50 km) 
  with one tap

• Runs entirely on-device — no account, no subscription, 
  no data sent anywhere

Perfect for daily runs, tempo workouts, and trail running.
