Running Voice is your reliable running companion that keeps you informed with voice announcements while you run. KEY FEATURES • Voice Announcements - Get audio updates on your distance, pace, and time while listening to your favorite music. No need to look at your phone! • Works Without GPS - Track your runs using step counting even when GPS is unavailable or unreliable. Perfect for indoor tracks, dense urban areas, or anywhere GPS struggles. • Smart Distance Tracking - Intelligently combines GPS and step data for the most accurate distance measurements possible. • Background Tracking - Lock your phone and save battery while the app continues tracking in the background. • Real-Time Stats - Monitor your distance, speed, pace, time, and steps all in one beautiful interface. • Motivational Content - Enjoy motivational quotes and encouragement during your run to keep you energized. • Customizable Settings - Choose between kilometers/miles and 12/24-hour time format to match your preferences. • Run History - Review all your past runs with detailed statistics including GPS distance, step-based distance, duration, and more. • Privacy-Focused - Your data stays on your device. No account required, no tracking, just pure running. PERFECT FOR • Runners in areas with poor GPS signal • Indoor track running • Trail running in dense forests • Urban running between tall buildings • Anyone who wants reliable tracking in all conditions HOW IT WORKS Running Voice uses both GPS and your iPhone's pedometer to track your runs. When GPS signal is strong, it uses that for maximum accuracy. When GPS is weak or unavailable, it seamlessly switches to step counting so you never miss tracking a run. Voice announcements automatically lower your music volume, give you updates, then restore your music - all without you touching your phone. ANNOUNCEMENTS SCHEDULE • First milestone: 10 meters (or 30 feet) • Regular updates: Every 500 meters (or 0.5 miles) • Final summary when you finish Each announcement includes your current distance, speed, and pace, plus a motivational message to keep you going! REQUIREMENTS • Location permission (for GPS tracking) • Motion & Fitness permission (for step counting) • iOS 17.0 or later WHY RUNNING VOICE? Unlike other running apps that fail when GPS signal drops, Running Voice adapts. Whether you're running through tunnels, between skyscrapers, in dense forests, or on indoor tracks, your run keeps tracking. The combination of GPS and step counting means you get the best of both worlds: GPS accuracy when available, and reliable step counting as a backup. The voice announcement system is designed for runners who want to stay focused on their run, not their phone. Keep your screen locked, save battery, and let Running Voice tell you everything you need to know. Start your next run with Running Voice and experience the freedom of hands-free run tracking!

Verdict

The call

Timer Plus's advantage is device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price there is nothing between them.
