## What is GlowMap?

Your Strava history, painted across Apple Maps.

Sign in once and pull every activity you've ever logged on Strava. Each ride, run, hike, swim, and ski overlays as a translucent line on the map; where your routes overlap, the lines stack into a personal heatmap that quietly tells the story of where you've been.

— FILTER BY SPORT —
A glass sidebar lists every sport type present in your history with its activity count. Toggle running on, cycling off, or solo any sport with a tap. Counts and totals update live.

— TOURS: GROUP YOUR RIDES YOUR WAY —
Build collections of activities that belong together — a multi-day bikepack, a training block, a weekend trip — and call them Tours. The filter lets you show only the activities in a tour, or layer several tours at once.

Tours sync back into Strava as #tags in each activity's description, so they're portable: edit them in StravaHeat, or in Strava itself, or in any other tool that respects #tags. Nothing is locked in.

— DESIGNED FOR LIQUID GLASS —
Built natively for iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe. The sidebar adopts the system's Liquid Glass material; the map uses realistic elevation on iPhone and iPad. NavigationSplitView on every screen size — sheet on iPhone, split view on iPad and Mac — sharing one codebase, one sync, and one history.

— PRIVATE BY DEFAULT —
Activities and Tours sync between your devices through your own private CloudKit database. Strava tokens live in the device Keychain. There are no analytics, no third-party SDKs, and no servers in the middle. Your route data goes from Strava to your devices and stops there.

— REQUIRES —
A free Strava account. iOS 26 / iPadOS 26 / macOS Tahoe or later. iCloud is recommended for cross-device sync but not required — the app falls back to local-only storage if iCloud is unavailable.

StravaHeat is not affiliated with Strava, Inc. "Strava" is a trademark of Strava, Inc.
