A running app built around the people watching.

Most run trackers require family and friends to download an app or create an account. TrackMyRun keeps the people cheering you on in the loop — with only a click for them.

Live from your wrist

Pace, distance, heart rate, and a live GPS map streamed straight from Apple Watch.

One link

Share your dashboard with friends and family. For them, there's no app, no signup and no password - the link is unguessable.

Text-when-you-start

Add up to two trusted contacts. They get a single text the moment your run begins, with a link to your live map.

From install to first run in seconds.

Enjoy a 3-day free trial. Download from the App Store and use the companion app on your phone to get started.

Frequently asked.

What do I need to use TrackMyRun?

An iPhone running iOS 17 or later, paired with an Apple Watch (Series 4 or newer) on watchOS 10+. A subscription is required to broadcast runs and is billed through Apple.

Who can see my dashboard?

Only people you give your dashboard link to. The link contains a private viewing token — no password is required to view, but the link is unguessable. You can regenerate the link at any time, which immediately revokes access for anyone who had the old one.

How do SMS notifications work?

You add up to two phone numbers in the iPhone app, with the recipient's permission. When you start a run, TrackMyRun sends each contact a single text message containing your name and a link to your live dashboard. Recipients can reply STOP at any time to opt out, and you can remove them at any time.

How is my data protected?

All connections use HTTPS. Live run data is stored in Redis with a configurable expiry (default 24 hours). Phone numbers added as notification contacts are stored only to deliver run-start texts and are never shared with anyone except Twilio, our SMS delivery provider. Read the privacy policy.

How do I cancel my subscription?

Subscriptions are managed through your Apple ID. Open Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions on iPhone, select TrackMyRun, and tap Cancel. Refunds are handled by Apple's standard refund process at reportaproblem.apple.com.

How do I delete my account?

Open the iPhone app, go to Account, and tap Delete Account. This removes your credentials, run data, location trail, and notification contacts permanently. You can also email [email protected] if you can't reach the in-app option.
