About

Paths

Read full description

Paths is built to help you keep the movements that matter. Across everyday life, fitness, sport, wellness, milestones, travel, adventure and experiences. Some movements leave a route. Others do not. Paths gives you one place to keep them, make them your own and return to them over time. Keep movement however it happens Record a movement directly in Paths as it happens, or add one afterwards. Import from Strava, activity files or route links, including activities that leave no route. Import one at a time or in bulk. Describe where you went, or draw the route on the map. Movement that leaves no map Not everything you do draws a line. A strength session, a yoga or pilates class, a padel match, a swim, time spent still: each one becomes a visual of its own, drawn from what the session actually measured. Log a session by hand when there is nothing to import, with the place, the people and the score. Bring your movement history with you Already have months or years of movement elsewhere? Import your Strava history, activity files or route links in bulk when you join Paths. Bring the movements you have already done into one place, rather than starting again from the day you download the app. Make every movement your own Give each movement a name, or let Paths suggest one. Add the people, photographs and places that belong with it, and choose how it is presented. Over time, individual movements become a personal record you can return to. Keep movements together Bring related movements into a Series**:** a trip, routine, season, place, person or chapter of life, while keeping each movement individual. Build an Album around the Series with photographs and details, then see its movements together in a Combined Visual. Return by place or date Explore your movements across the world map or return to them through the calendar. See the places your movement has taken you, the places you return to and how your movement memory grows over time. Gift or share what matters Gift a movement you did together, or one you want someone else to keep, with your own message. They can choose to keep it in their own Paths app. Share a movement or Series through the apps and channels you already use. Or lift the visual off its card and place it over your own photograph, with control over where it sits and how strongly it reads. Private by default No public feed. No leaderboard. No passive location tracking. Your movements remain private unless you choose to gift or share them. Paths is free to download and use during Early Access.
