Turn every run into a receipt worth keeping. Run Receipt turns your running records into receipt-style keepsakes you can save and share. Distance, pace, duration, heart rate, rhythm and route come together on one clean sheet of paper, giving familiar workout data a lighter and more personal way to be remembered. It keeps more than numbers. It keeps the moment of a run — a starting point, a route, and the feeling of that day. A morning run, a night run, a route from a trip, an ordinary training session — every run can become a receipt you can look back on and share. Every receipt is printed in the Studio: switch between a long receipt with the full picture and a short one built around your route or a photo, decide what each receipt keeps, add your signature, and share it right there — all in one place. Running here isn't about proving how strong you are; it's about recognizing your own patterns. Rather than results, comparison and competition, Run Receipt wants running to come back to everyday life and feel closer to you. It makes your running records easier to keep, easier to share and easier to remember. Features: • Turn your running data into a receipt unlike anyone else's — each one signed with a coach-style line chosen by distance and intensity, and the same run always gets the same line • Two receipt styles: a long one with the full details and three charts, and a short one led by your route or a photo • Five ways to print a route: 3D, ASCII character map, pace trend, elevation profile, and City Print — a city basemap screened into halftone dots, your route laid down dot by dot in three Riso inks • The Studio handles printing, editing, signing and sharing in one place: still image, Live Photo or a short video with the printing animation; a 3:4 crop for the short receipt; one-tap subject cut-out with five print-style filters; and you decide which charts each long receipt shows • ARCHIVE: every week of running is filed onto its own paper — trend bars, last-week comparison, average heart rate, intensity mix, a run-by-run table — flip through the stack, tap to share • Runner Passport: a foldable 3D credential holding your profile, portrait and signature; the heart rate zones in your profile drive how each run's intensity is judged • Five Home Screen widgets: your last run, this week's distance, this month's streak, your next training session, and a running line that changes every four hours • Five Lock Screen widgets: this week, today (two layouts), streak and year distance — preview every widget in the app before adding it • A library that files every run by month, marks where it came from, and handles duplicates for you • Clearly shows the key numbers — distance, pace, duration, heart rate and route — in kilometers or miles, Celsius or Fahrenheit • Local first: parsing, rendering, compositing and export all happen on your device. No run database, no uploaded training history • Seven languages: English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French and German Run Receipt currently imports running data from Apple Health, Strava and activity files (GPX, FIT, TCX). Runs from Garmin, COROS and Suunto come in as GPX — export from the watch app and pick Run Receipt in the share sheet, or paste the export link; there's a step-by-step guide in the app. More platforms and wearables are coming over time. Run Receipt wants movement to become part of your everyday story. One run. One receipt. Let running be part of your everyday life. Feedback and support: support@atomicos.run
