The hardest part of going outside isn't the walk. It's deciding to go. Where should I go? How far? Is it worth it? Headout removes the decision. Tap Head Out and get a real, walkable destination near you. Follow the route, arrive at your checkpoint, and earn XP. ONE TAP. ONE DESTINATION. ONE ADVENTURE. GO SOMEWHERE Headout turns an ordinary walk into a small adventure. • Get a nearby destination chosen for you • Follow the route to your checkpoint • Arrive to complete your walk • Earn XP and build your streak • Level up and unlock longer adventures • Chain checkpoints for bonus XP Every walk has a reason. Every arrival counts. CHOOSE YOUR WALK Full — Take the complete Headout adventure with a longer route and more distance. Quick — Take a shorter version of the Full walk when you're short on time. Discovery — Head toward real landmarks and points of interest nearby. Roam — Walk freely without a destination and explore wherever you want. WATCH YOUR PROGRESS Every completed walk becomes part of your personal history. See where you've been, how far you've walked and how long your adventures took. Track your XP, levels and streaks as you keep heading out. Over time, your history becomes a private atlas of the places you've explored. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE Headout isn't a fitness tracker. It doesn't tell you that you're behind, chase perfect numbers, or expect you to hit a daily goal. It's simply there to give you a reason to get out the door. No account. No sign-up. No servers. Your walks stay on your device. Steps are read from Apple Health with read-only access. Headout never writes to your Health data. HEADOUT PRO Headout Pro requires a purchase and is available as a one-time purchase or subscription. Pro unlocks Quick and Discovery modes, along with full Statistics and complete walk history.
