BeepArc turns the 20-metre multistage fitness test ā the beep test, bleep test, MSFT, or PACER ā into a focused, repeatable cardio benchmark for athletes, coaches, students, and anyone training their aerobic fitness. No setup friction: the app opens straight to the test. No account, no paywall, no ads. Pick your starting level, set the profile used for your VO2 max target, and run. ON THE TRACK ⢠Accurate 20m pacing built on the real shuttle/level interval table ā the beeps speed up at every level, exactly like the official test. ⢠Clear, glanceable readouts: current level, shuttle count, elapsed time, and a pace ring sized for sweaty hands mid-sprint. ⢠Voice level call-outs and audio pace cues so you can run without watching the screen. ⢠Optional 10-second countdown with voice and a fast beep so you start on the line, not fumbling with a button. ⢠Haptic feedback on every beep and a stronger hit on each level-up. KEEP RUNNING WHEN THE SCREEN IS LOCKED ⢠Lock your phone or drop it in a pocket ā the pace beeps keep playing on schedule, right through the lock. ⢠A Lock Screen Live Activity and Dynamic Island show your live level, shuttle, and elapsed time at a glance. YOUR RESULT, MEASURED ⢠On stop, BeepArc computes your VO2 max estimate, distance covered, test duration, and the final level reached ā all from your real run, not canned numbers. ⢠Save results on-device, review weekly progress, and compare each test against your previous session. ⢠Share a clean summary to send a result to a coach or training partner. DIAL IT IN ⢠Output volume, voice cues, and the countdown are all toggleable. ⢠Your profile (age, gender, body weight) feeds the VO2 max calculation. ⢠See the active 20m protocol at a glance ā starting speed, per-level increment, and the shut-off rule. ⢠Reset all session data whenever you want a clean slate. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Everything you record stays on your device. BeepArc collects no personal data, has no accounts, and makes no network calls to run the test. Lace up, set a level, and chase the beep. ā Privacy Policy: https://jakebuild.com/beeparc/privacy Terms of Use: https://jakebuild.com/beeparc/terms
