About
A run tracker for iPhone, even better with Apple Watch, with one feature nobody else has: it races you against yourself.
Run with just your phone and it records GPS, splits and voice on its own. Add an Apple Watch and the two stay in step for the whole run: heart rate on your wrist, pause and end from either, start from wherever you are. Bring in years of history, and SoleRunner finds the routes you run, ranks every run on them, and lets you race any of them, with the gap called out mile by mile.
RACE YOURSELF, FOR REAL
Pick any past run on today's route and go. The watch shows the gap the whole way: 12 seconds up at the bridge, 5 down at the hill, a voice in your ear every quarter mile. Cross the line and you'll know exactly where today stands: #7 of 650 on this route, or a new fastest.
YOUR ROUTES, FOUND FOR YOU
Most runs happen on the same few loops. SoleRunner recognizes them from your GPS trace, no drawing or naming required, and describes each one in plain words: "Starting at Piedmont Ave in Midtown, out and back to Ansley Park." Open a route and see every time you've run it, best first.
YOUR WHOLE HISTORY IN A TAP
Switching apps? Import your full Runkeeper or Strava export, GPX, TCX or FIT files from Nike Run Club and other apps, or pull from Apple Health. GPS routes, heart rate and splits come along. Thousands of runs, no duplicates, even when the same run was saved in two places, ready to race in about a minute.
FORGOTTEN THE WAY? FOLLOW THE GHOST
Racing a route from years ago? The ghost's path is drawn under your trail on iPhone and Watch. Drift off it and you'll hear "off course, the route is 80 yards to your left". Miles from the start? Get walking directions to the line in Apple Maps.
PHONE AND WATCH, ONE RUN
Start from the phone and it records with its own GPS and voice while the watch shows the numbers and feeds back heart rate. Start from the wrist and the watch records on its own. Pause, resume and end from either. Every run lands in Apple Health.
FRIENDS WHO ACTUALLY SHOW UP
Swap a six-character code with a running buddy. Get a tap when they start a run, watch it live on a map in the app, and see their recent runs. No feed to scroll, no comments to moderate, no strangers.
A VOICE WORTH LISTENING TO
Natural voices announce your splits, your race gap and your route cues through the watch or the phone. Choose the one you like.
BRAG WITH ONE PICTURE
Every run becomes a shareable card: map, distance, time, pace, heart rate, climb, splits, your rank on the route, and a trophy when it's your fastest 5K, 10K, half or marathon.
RECORDS, GOALS AND TRENDS
Fastest mile to marathon, each opening into every qualifying run. Distance, run count or time goals for the day, week, month or year, with the math done for you. Year-over-year distance, a month-by-month grid, pace over time and your streak.
