Running tracker app
A running tracker that doesn't lock the good parts behind a paywall.
GPS tracking, live pace and distance, heart-rate zones, and Garmin sync — plus your gym training in the same app.
GPS run tracking
GPS run tracking with live pace and distance
The live run screen is the whole interface — start moving and it tracks distance, splits, and pace in real time, with voice cues so you never have to look down. No pre-run friction, no menus to dig through.
- Live pace and distance updated continuously from GPS
- Auto splits per kilometre or mile
- Route map drawn as you go, saved with every run
Heart-rate zones
Heart-rate zones without a premium tier
Pair a heart-rate strap over Bluetooth and Activ.run breaks every run into five training zones by BPM. Zones are part of the free core — not gated behind a subscription the way they are elsewhere.
- Five-zone model from recovery to max
- BLE heart-rate support for common straps
- Time-in-zone on every run summary
Garmin & FIT
Sync your Garmin and import FIT files
Already wear a watch? Pull in your Garmin runs automatically, or import FIT files from Garmin, Coros, Suunto, and Wahoo. One running history, whatever you record it on.
The hybrid bridge
Already lift? Your gym log lives here too
This is the part a running app can't do: the same app that tracks your runs also tracks your lifts — sets, reps, PRs, and estimated 1RM. One subscription you don't pay, for the whole training week.
- Sets, reps, and PRs logged in seconds between rest
- Estimated 1RM and volume trends over time
- One history for runs and lifts together
