VibeRun vs Runifier

VibeRun — The slow running coach for Apple Watch. Run to your rhythm. Built for runners who want to keep running — not just run faster. Slow Jogging, Cadence Running, and MAF Zone 2 in one app, on your wrist. VibeRun turns your Apple Watch into a running metronome. Choose your cadence, pick your intensity, and let a steady rhythm guide every step. No GPS chasing, no split analysis, Just a beat that keeps you in your groove. **Why rhythm works** A consistent cadence helps you run longer with less effort. It takes the guesswork out of pacing, quiets the mental chatter, and lets your body find its natural stride. Runners have used metronomes for years — we just made it effortless. Whether you're into slow jogging, zone 2 training, or just want a steady step rate — VibeRun keeps it simple. **Features** • Metronome — Precise BPM on your wrist. Hear it, feel it, follow it. • Free Run — Pure metronome. No heart rate zones, no rules. Just run. • Zone Run — Pick your heart rate zone (1–4) for guided intensity. • Vibe Orb — A living pulse on screen that changes color with your heart rate zone. Glance down, know where you are. • 1km Milestones — Sound and haptic feedback every kilometer. • Run History — Review past sessions on your Watch or the web dashboard. • No iPhone Required — Fully standalone on Apple Watch. **What VibeRun is not** This is not a training plan app. Not a race prep tool. Not a social running platform. VibeRun does one thing — gives you a rhythm to run to — and does it well. Not for runners chasing PRs. For runners chasing decades. Your rhythm. Your run.

Runifier locks your music to your running rhythm. Set a target cadence, tap Start, and every Apple Music track speeds up or slows down so its beat lands on each step. A high-precision metronome clicks in sync, and a voice coach calls your pace out loud as you go. KEY FEATURES • Cadence-synced Apple Music — pick a target BPM (120–200) and Runifier time-stretches each track to match your stride. • Per-song BPM memory — enter a song's BPM once and it's saved per track, applied automatically the next time it plays. • Sample-accurate metronome — generated live by AVAudioEngine; never drifts, toggle the click on or off mid-run. • Pace from Garmin or GPS — listens for Garmin Connect broadcasts during your run and falls back to iPhone GPS + pedometer cadence within five seconds if no watch signal is present. • Voice pace coach — speaks current and average pace every 500 m, 1 km, 2 km, or 5 km, with automatic audio ducking so the music and metronome step out of the way during each callout. • Live dashboard — large current pace and target BPM displays, connection status badge (Garmin / iPhone GPS), distance, average pace, and steps per minute. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose a target cadence on the dashboard. 175 BPM is a sensible starting point. 2. Queue a playlist or song from your Apple Music library. 3. Tap Start Workout. Music plays at the adjusted tempo, the metronome clicks at your target, and pace tracking begins. 4. The voice coach announces pace at the interval you've set. 5. Drag the BPM slider any time — the music and metronome retune instantly. WHO IT'S FOR Cadence-aware runners. Form-focused trainers. Marathoners who train by rhythm. Garmin watch users who want their phone library to keep pace with their wrist. Anyone tired of building "exactly 175 BPM" playlists by hand. APPLE MUSIC An Apple Music subscription is required for playback. Tempo adjustment works most reliably on tracks downloaded to your library; streaming-only catalog tracks may not honour playback rate changes. You can enter a Song BPM manually for any track and Runifier remembers it. PRIVACY Runifier doesn't send your location, pace, music library, or BPM entries off your device. All BPM data is stored locally. No analytics, no ads, no third-party trackers.
