Ruttio
Read full descriptionHide full description
Export workouts. Plan routes. Everything you need to move from workout data to usable files. Ruttio reads your Apple Health workouts, lets you build planned routes on the map, and exports your data as GPX, TCX, FIT, JSON, or Ruttio route files — all on your device. BROWSE YOUR WORKOUTS Filter Apple Health workouts by activity type and open detailed summaries with route maps and performance stats. EXPORT IN ANY FORMAT Choose GPX, TCX, FIT, or JSON depending on the target app, device, or whether the workout has GPS data. JSON export now includes GPS data. Select multiple workouts and export them together as a ZIP archive, one file per workout. SEE YOUR TRAINING TRENDS A statistics tab shows weekly and monthly overviews of session count, time, and distance. Filter by activity type and read frequency and heart-rate charts with configurable heart-rate zones. PLAN ROUTES ON A MAP Add waypoints and let them snap to nearby roads automatically — no limit on waypoints. Tap the start to close a route into a loop. Name your routes, mark favourites, swipe to delete, import GPX files, save a workout's GPS track as a planned route, and export routes back out as GPX or Ruttio JSON. INTERACTIVE ELEVATION PROFILES View the elevation profile for any activity or planned route with climb analysis. Drag your finger along the chart to scrub through the profile while a marker tracks the exact point on the map in real time. FOLLOW ROUTES, HANDS-FREE Turn-by-turn guidance for multi-point routes shows the next waypoint and remaining distance, plus off-route alerts. A Live Activity puts the current instruction and remaining distance on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets keep your routes one tap away. ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch companion mirrors active route navigation with the current instruction, distance to the next waypoint, total remaining distance, off-route alerts, and pause, resume, or stop controls — with haptic cues. SIX LANGUAGES Available in English, Swedish, German, French, Spanish, and Italian. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Ruttio requests read-only HealthKit access. Workout browsing, export generation, route planning, and temporary export files all happen locally on your device. Planned routes sync only through your own private iCloud database when available. No workout exports are uploaded to Ruttio servers, and the app uses no analytics or tracking. Your workout data never leaves your device.

Your data should be yours. The runs, rides, and swims you've logged over the years belong to you, not to whichever platform holds them. FitFerry moves them into Apple Health and back out again, whenever you like. Import GPX, TCX, and FIT files — one at a time or a whole export zip from other platforms, like Strava or Garmin — into Apple Health as genuine historical workouts: original dates, GPS routes, heart rate, and distance. Every file is previewed first and logged after. Workouts already imported are skipped and likely duplicates are flagged, so importing the same export twice is safe. IMPORT ▸ Bring GPX, TCX, and FIT files into Apple Health as genuine historical workouts with real past dates, GPS routes, and heart rate ▸ Drop in a whole platform export zip and bring your entire history over in one pass ▸ The File Inspector shows exactly what each file carries before anything is written ▸ Delete anything FitFerry imported — one workout, one batch, or everything EXPORT ▸ Take workouts out of Apple Health as GPX or TCX files ▸ Filter, multi-select, and export as many as you like ▸ Export is always free and unlimited No accounts. No analytics. No data on servers. No third-party access. Your files and health data are processed on your iPhone or iPad. FitFerry is not affiliated with Apple, Strava, or Garmin.
