It reads the hikes you already record with Apple Watch or iPhone and turns them into elevation, effort and endurance analysis — privately, on your device. NO EXTRA RECORDING You do not start another tracker. Hike Analytics reads your hiking workouts from Apple Health and analyzes them automatically, so nothing changes on the trail. WHAT YOU GET • Total ascent and descent, with the climb profile of every hike • Grade-adjusted pace, so a steep hour is not compared to a flat one • Training load, fitness and fatigue balance across your season • Heart rate zones and time spent climbing versus recovering • Route context, distance and moving time for outdoor hikes • Weekly, monthly and yearly progress charts • Export hikes and your full history to CSV or JSON FOR EVERY KIND OF HIKER Weekend walkers building up to a summit, long-distance trekkers tracking a multi-day route, backpackers carrying weight, and trail runners who want the vertical to count. KNOW IF YOU'RE READY Can you sustain the ascent your next route demands? Is your pace on steep ground improving? Hike Analytics answers with training-science metrics applied to vertical gain, not just distance. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything is analyzed on your iPhone. No account, no cloud, no ads, no data brokers. Delete the app and the data is gone.
