## What is RunningMap?

RunningMap is 100% free. And for you, it always will be.

Create your routes, explore freely. RunningMap is your companion for every journey — walking, running, cycling or driving. Today, RunningMap is entirely free — every feature, no limits, no ads. If the app ever moves to a subscription model to cover its running costs, it won't affect you. You downloaded the app from the start — everything will remain free for you. Forever.

DRAW YOUR ROUTES
Trace routes on the map with automatic path calculation. Combine routed and freehand segments. Import and export in GPX format. Generate suggested routes around your location or a point you choose on the map. Search for a destination, add stops and let the app guide you.

FOUR MODES, ONE APP
Switch from walking to running, cycling to driving in a single tap. Each mode automatically adapts the display, thresholds, camera and HealthKit activity type.

REAL-TIME NAVIGATION
Precise GPS tracking with turn-by-turn navigation and voice announcements. Alternative routes, automatic off-route detection and rerouting. Elevation profile, points of interest and a smooth map with speed-adaptive zoom. While driving: maneuver overlay, speed limits displayed along your entire route with audible alert and adjustable tolerance, average speed check zones, vigilance zones, live traffic and automatic rerouting when a faster route becomes available. And when you park, mark your vehicle's location — the app will walk you back to it.

CYCLING
The climbs of your route are detected automatically: while climbing, see the hill profile, your position, the live gradient, and get voice announcements at the bottom and the top. Before you leave: headwind or tailwind along the route and the share of your track on bike lanes.

INTERVAL TRAINING
Set up your interval sessions: 30/30, 1min/1min, 10×400m, pyramid or custom program. Real-time colored banner, voice announcements, haptic feedback and detailed phase-by-phase summary.

GO FREESTYLE
No route? Start a free recording. Start on movement: the timer starts on its own as soon as you begin moving, giving you time to put your phone away. Follow your stats on the lock screen and Dynamic Island with Live Activities.

COMMUNITY
Discover routes shared by the RunningMap community. Publish yours, like your favorites, download new itineraries. Filter by transport mode, distance or popularity.

FULL PERFORMANCE TRACKING
Per-kilometer splits with voice announcements. Smart auto-pause. Personal records by mode. Complete history with period and mode filters, detailed statistics. Replay any activity as a 3D flyover, in satellite or map view.

PHOTOS
Take photos during your activity — they are automatically placed on the map. Add photos from your library afterwards.

SHARE WITH FRIENDS
Add friends via QR code or invitation link. Share your activities and routes. Follow a friend live on the map. A private network between close ones.

APPLE WATCH
Stats, map and controls on your wrist. Start the activity with a tap on the watch, iPhone tucked away. Heart rate, intervals, splits and navigation — everything syncs in real time. Watch face complication to launch the app instantly.

SAFETY AND PRIVACY
Location automatically sent to a safety contact via SMS. No personal data collected, no data sold, no ad tracking.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.95 — 2026-08-24

Three major additions in this release.

My activity map: all your outings combined on a single map — the more often you take a path, the hotter its color. Filter by mode and period, with region badges when your activities span several cities or countries.

Back to start: during an activity, get guided back to your starting point without stopping the recording — same way back or best route. The outbound and return form a single activity.

Richer weather: hourly and daily forecasts right in the weather sheet.

Improvements:
- Unlimited Health import: your full history, however large, with its routes
- More reliable backup and restore for large histories
- Clearer bike profile choice in settings
- Better reliability and lower network usage

### 1.94 — 2026-08-11

Import your workouts from Apple Health: activities recorded by your watch or another app join your history, complete with their route, splits and elevation.

Improvements:
- Reworked route generation: greener surroundings, genuinely distinct loops, requested elevation respected
- Community: rename your shared routes, location now shown in the list and on the detail sheet
- Faster, more reliable points of interest
- Noticeably faster iCloud backup
- Clearer Health permissions, with a status view in Settings > Advanced

### 1.93 — 2026-08-06

FAITHFUL GPX IMPORT

An imported route (Garmin, Komoot, Strava...) now stays exactly identical to the original file: no more silent rerouting on first start. The "Recalculate route" menu remains available to snap it to the road network.
Route-type GPX files are now accepted on import.

COMMUNITY

Up to 10 photos per published route, instead of 5.

WEATHER

The weather and tides sheet is refined.

Enjoy the ride!

### 1.92 — 2026-08-03

WEATHER AND TIDES

Tides: near the coast, see high and low tide times with water heights and a 24-hour curve, based on the nearest tide station.
Sunrise and sunset times in the weather sheet.
Move the map: weather and tides follow the spot you are looking at, handy for planning an outing away from your current location.

CYCLING

Richer landscape display: speed (or pace) and remaining distance join time, distance and heart rate.
Voice announcements in km/h: each kilometer summary and your average speed are announced in kilometers per hour instead of pace. Miles per hour with imperial units.
Orientation lock: a padlock keeps the map in landscape during tracking, even if the phone shifts on its mount.

Enjoy the ride!

### 1.91 — 2026-08-01
