## What is Utils.Run?

Utils.Run is a running toolkit for Apple Watch, with a beautifully designed stats app on iPhone to follow your runs and your progress.

ON YOUR WRIST
Start a run from Apple Watch and keep the tools you actually use one swipe away.

• Cadence metronome: set your target steps per minute and follow haptic taps or audio ticks, straight from the watch.
• Live map: see your route and where you are, mid-run.
• Beacon: share a live link and let friends and family follow your run on a map, no app needed. Set the Action Button to Utils.Run and choose Send Beacon, and one press sends an update. Or let Auto Send post one at the interval you choose.
• Your metrics, your layout: arrange every workout page. Pace, rolling pace, heart rate, cadence, heart rate zones, splits and running form.
• Split alerts at every kilometer or mile.

ON YOUR IPHONE
• Your week at a glance: distance, time and elevation for the week, with every session underneath.
• Every run in detail: route map, splits, heart rate zones, pace, cadence, elevation, power, best efforts and running form (stride length, ground contact time, vertical oscillation).
• See your progress build: weekly, monthly, six-month and annual trends.
• Rate your effort after a run. The rating goes back to Apple Health with the workout.
• Export any run as FIT or GPX.
• Edit your Apple Watch workout views from your phone.

BUILT ON APPLE HEALTH
The Apple Watch app records runs and routes to Apple Health. The iPhone app reads your workouts and saves the effort rating you give a run. Your workouts, routes and heart rate stay on your devices unless you turn on Beacon and choose to share live updates.

UTILS.RUN PRO
Everything above is free. Pro adds more to Beacon:
• Full Run: people who open your link late can replay the whole run from the start.
• Your run stays on the map for seven days after you finish.

Pro is available as a Monthly or Annual auto-renewing subscription. Prices vary by region and are shown in the app before purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel it at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it any time in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions.

REQUIREMENTS
Apple Watch with watchOS 27 or later, paired with an iPhone running iOS 27 or later. Beacon needs an internet connection on your watch or iPhone.

### 5/5 — Intuitive running app!

*2026-10-16*

I like to have a metronome during my training. Quit like the live map too. Especially running in unfamiliar neighborhoods, I can always find my way out without reacting to my phone!! Also the single-hand gesture to change stats pages is really good! I don’t have to use the inaccurately touch screen while running to see different stats now!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-10-16*

It has useful utilities, just as what I wanted.
