Most running apps are about how fast you went. StreetProof is about where you've been, and where you haven't. StreetProof puts every run you've ever recorded on one map and your streets fill in over time. It's for explorers looking for new territory, completionists out to cover every block, and anyone tired of the same loop. When you head out the door knowing where you haven't been yet, your neighborhood gets bigger. Your city opens up. YOUR MAP StreetProof reads the runs already in Apple Health, including ones recorded using other apps and from years ago. Open the app and your map is already drawn. No account, no sign-up, no upload. Runs anywhere in the world count. • Route map — a personal heatmap of every run you've ever recorded, filterable to see where you ran this month, year, or by custom dates • History — every run with its route thumbnail. Tap in for the full map and metrics. • Training calendar — your biggest days and weeks, visible at a glance • More than running — walks count, and bike rides and treadmill runs appear too LEAVE YOUR PHONE AT HOME On Apple Watch the map comes with you. Your past routes, your current run drawn on top of them, and the streets you haven't hit yet, on your wrist, mid-run, on a cellular watch with no phone in your pocket. Splits, elevation and auto-pause are all there. YOUR NUMBERS Everything your devices capture: splits, heart rate zones, elevation and running form, plus StreetProof's own effort, training load and adjusted pace scores. Every workout saves to Apple Health with its route attached. SHARE YOUR PROOF Turn any run into a clean image or a clip of the route drawing itself, ready to post. Ran a race? Add its official distance and time. STREETPROOF+ The upgrade turns your map into a game you can finish. • Proof Pins — every block in your city gets a pin. Run past it and it's yours. Every run shows the new ones you completed, and the red ones are your next run. • City progress — a completion percentage for every city you run in. Run somewhere new and that city adds itself, in the US and 159 countries worldwide. • Map Explorer — tap any route to see the run behind it. Tap a Proof Pin to see how many times you've covered that block, when, and which runs did it. • City and full-map replays — export an animation of a whole city, or your entire map, filling in run by run, with Proof Pins in any export • Colored maps and print — export a run, a city or your whole map on fifteen colored map styles, at sizes big enough to frame • Location Beacon — send someone a private link to follow along live. No accounts on either end, and it expires when you finish. • Audio cues — spoken splits and heart rate zone alerts, so you never have to look down • Custom routes, shoes, GPX and CSV exports — plan a route, track your shoe mileage, and take every run with you Try StreetProof+ free for 7 days. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No feed, no followers, no leaderboard. No background tracking: your location is recorded only while a workout is running. Your data lives in Apple Health and on your devices. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
StepMap
Read full descriptionHide full description
StepMap is a location-based fitness game that turns your daily walk into real-world territory. Every step you take grows your footprint on the map; every loop you close becomes a new patch of land you own. WHY STEPMAP • Walking is no longer just step counting — set goals, draw routes, claim land. • Synced with Apple Watch and the Health app — no manual counters. • Fitness habits (streaks, pace, calories, daily goal) combined with game mechanics (territory ownership, emojis, teams). • Sign in with Apple or Google in five seconds and start walking. THE CORE LOOP 1. Tap "Start" — your GPS marks the origin. 2. Walk and a live polyline draws behind you while your step counter ticks up in real time. 3. Return close to your starting point and the loop closes automatically. 4. The closed route becomes a polygon — your territory, pinned to the map. 5. Drop an emoji (cactus, rock, mountain, tree) onto it. The emoji's HP equals the steps you spent on that walk. FITNESS FIRST • Daily step goal tracking (default 10,000 steps) • Streak counter — uninterrupted active days • Live pace (min/km) and calorie estimate • Weekly and monthly progress stats • Automatic data from Apple Watch and the Health app GAME LAYER • Sign your territory with an emoji — other players can see it. • Encirclement (v2): draw a longer loop that fully contains someone's territory to take it over. • Tap-to-destroy (v2): repeatedly tap an enemy emoji to drain its HP and neutralize the territory. TEAMS • Build a team of up to 20 walkers. • Choose before each walk: personal or team-attributed. • Team leaders see member stats and export them as CSV or JSON. PREMIUM (Optional) • Premium unlocks one 48-hour territory shield per month on your newest capture. • Shielded territory can't be encircled or destroyed. • The free tier is fully playable — premium only adds the protective shield. • StepMap Premium is an auto-renewable monthly subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at purchase confirmation and renews automatically each month unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. • Terms of Use (EULA): https://stepmap-legal.pages.dev/terms • Privacy Policy: https://stepmap-legal.pages.dev/privacy PRIVACY • Location is only read during an active walk. • Health data stays on your device and is never uploaded. • Social sign-in only — no passwords stored. SUPPORTED DEVICES • iPhone (iOS 17+) • Apple Watch (via HealthKit) CONTACT For feedback and bug reports: stepmap-legal.pages.dev Happy walking.

Verdict
