Long Run is not just another running app. It’s built for runners who love heading out with music or podcasts, and want helpful, timely, spoken updates without ever touching their phone. Using Siri announcements via compatible Apple or Beats headphones, Long Run quietly supports your run with motivation, reminders, and fun, personalised insights. --Why Long Run is Different-- • Hands-Free Audio Notifications Ideal for runners using Apple/Beats headphones with an H1 or H2 chip. Siri announces your updates straight into your ears — no interactions, taps, or watch glances. (Not a headphones runner? Long Run probably isn’t for you — and that’s okay.) Full compatibility list: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102536 • Tailored to You Choose the types of things you want to hear: hydration nudges, stride cues, running mantras, interesting facts based on your hobbies, or even light-hearted mood-boosters. Set it up once and let it run automatically. • Zero Maintenance No need to open the app before a run. Long Run wakes automatically when it detects you’re out running, then delivers notifications at intervals you choose. • Private by Design Long Run uses on-device region tracking and activity recognition. Your location never leaves your device, no accounts are required, and we don’t collect or sell data — ever. It only accesses the internet if you opt into customised “fun facts”, powered by ChatGPT. ------------ Simple, smart, private — and built to make your runs more enjoyable, one small nudge at a time. Happy Running!
