## What is Racefully social fitness?

Racefully is the world’s first truly social fitness activity tracking app. Run, walk, cycle, ski or snowboard and track your performance in real-time - on your own or with others, wherever they are around the world. You can count steps, train or race with your friends, even if they’re on the other side of town - or in another country. 

Create your own tribe or find tribes to join and collaborate - or compete - to achieve your fitness goals. You can be just as social as you like - schedule activities with friends, share routes for others to try out, and message your buddies with texts and pics to cheer them on.

And, if you want to exercise alone sometimes, you can race yourself or against runs or rides shared by other users any time you like.

FEATURES
Achieve your goals

• Join Tribes with shared goals or interests and achieve your objectives as a team. Collaborating and competing together really helps you stay on track!
• Keep track of achievements as you hit new milestones

Exercise Together:
• Share your routes to social and your friends can not only see them, they can load them in Racefully and then walk, run, ski or ride them - wherever they are. Simple and amazing all at the same time!
• Join tribes with similar goals, interests or causes - or create your own. Brilliant for staying connected with your buddies. Tribes are great for clubs, event organisers and charities, too!
• Have a step-counting conference call with Walk&Talk - boost your creativity and your wellbeing at the same time! 

Smart Tracking
• 4 modes
-> Social - set up a private or public activity and walk, run, cycle or ski virtually with up to 7 others, wherever you all are
-> Solo - get out on your own and track your route and performance
-> Ghost - race against your own or others’ recorded runs or rides
-> Steps - track your steps 24/7
• Tracking - Racefully’s smart tracking commentator updates you in real-time on your performance, and our unique equalization feature makes sure it’s a fair comparison
• Auto-pause - when this is on, Racefully will pause and re-start tracking you when you’re out and about and get held up
• Continuous recording for skiing and snowboarding - Racefully splits the session into individual runs at the end
• Listen to your music as usual - Racefully will fade it for updates
• When you finish, view distance, pace, elevation gained/lost, relative effort, and calories burned. Plus check out our gorgeous maps for details of the route and splits

### 3/5 — Racefully is great

*2023-06-14, version 3.67*

I use with Trainasone and the commands for changing pace and starting a new section and monitoring speed is excellent. Just fab.

### 5/5 — Great App - try it out!

*2023-05-07, version 3.67*

Great App - try it out!

### 5/5 — Excellet app!

*2022-02-06*

🙌🏻

### 4/5 — Love this but….

*2022-01-29, version 3.60*

As a daily runner I wish they had an app for apple watch

### 4/5 — Good, not yet Great.

*2022-01-06, version 3.60*

The interface has to be one of the simplest/ easiest to navigate. 
The tracking, network, and accessibility is almost seamless. 
Only issue sits with syncing to other apps and never uploading such as Strava, or lack of compatibility such as Fitbit.

### 5/5 — Amazing running app

*2021-07-26, version 3.57*

Really unique letting you race against virtual friends, recommend trying!

### 5/5 — Genial

*2021-07-24*

Es lo que esperaba para tener buenos entrenamientos. Felicidades

### 1/5 — Unhappy

*2021-05-01, version 3.57*

Cannot export to most trackers

### 3/5 — There’s a way to make the app not pause which is great.  I finally discovered how.

*2021-03-10, version 3.53*

I wish there was a summary view of my activities so I could we total miles walked in a week, months week over week improvements in my distance, pace , time.

I cannot manually log my walk which I have tracked in my iPhone health and Apple Watch.

### 5/5 — Awesome for motivation!

*2021-02-28, version 3.53*

Racefully is an awesome app. I signed up for the Tribe function - a way to run with people even when you’re apart in lockdown. Kept me so motivated!
