Offline GPS tracking ยท Beta 2026

Track every mile,
even where signal dies.

Runtrack records your GPS route entirely on-device โ€” no cell coverage needed. Designed for trail and ultra runners who spend hours beyond the last bar.


What it does

๐Ÿ“ก

Offline GPS recording

The app locks your route before you drop into dead zones. Elevation, pace, and distance โ€” all captured locally, nothing lost.

๐Ÿ“

Accurate mileage on trail

Switchbacks, ridgelines, scrambles. Runtrack accounts for vertical gain so your mileage reflects what your legs actually ran.

๐Ÿ”„

Auto-sync when you reconnect

Finish the run, hit a signal patch, and your complete route uploads automatically. No manual export, no lost data.

โ›ฐ๏ธ

Built for ultra-distance

Long battery modes, multi-day tracking, and segment checkpoints for 50K, 100-milers, and everything in between.


Questions.

When does it launch?

Beta is targeting Q3 2026. We're keeping the initial cohort small โ€” focused on trail and ultra runners โ€” so we can tune mileage accuracy with real feedback before opening wider.

What devices will it support?

iOS first at launch. Android will follow shortly after, likely within 60 days of the iOS beta. We're optimising for GPS chip performance on current-generation hardware (iPhone 13 and later).

Is my data private?

Your route data lives on your device until you choose to sync. We don't share or sell GPS data. You can export your runs as GPX files at any time and delete your account permanently.

How is mileage calculated offline?

Runtrack uses on-device GPS polling at a tight interval and applies elevation-aware distance correction. The algorithm is calibrated against known trail segments โ€” expect accuracy within 1โ€“2% on technical terrain.

Is it free for beta testers?

Yes. Beta access is completely free. Beta testers who stick around and provide feedback will get a meaningful discount when we launch the paid tier โ€” we'll have details closer to launch.

What if I run trails with no GPS lock at all?

Dense canopy and canyon walls can degrade GPS accuracy anywhere โ€” that's a hardware constraint. Runtrack improves accuracy by averaging multi-point readings and allows you to manually correct obvious outliers post-run.
