Runkeeper Releases Standalone App for the Apple Watch

Runkeeper has released a standalone app for the Apple Watch.

Every one. Every run. Join the over 45 million users who’ve discovered the joy of running with the original and the best running app on the planet, Runkeeper. With Runkeeper, turn your phone into the GPS tracker that is dedicated to bringing the fun and the motivation you want into your workout routine.

What's New In This Version:
This one’s built for iOS9 AND watchOS 2. Here’s what that means for you:


- Standalone app for the Apple Watch. Hold the phone! That means you can run without your phone and still track with Runkeeper. You’ll also get heart rate data on the run, and can easily swipe right or force touch to pause an activity on the go. Also, you get to leave your phone at home (in case you needed a reminder).

- Post-activity music analytics. “Do I really run faster to Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin’ or am I just imagining that?” Wonder no more! Run with music in Runkeeper (via Spotify, iTunes, or Runkeeper DJ), and after the run you’ll get a full rundown of your playlist and your pace for each song. You’ll also get to see the same for your Runkeeper friends. Have fun comparing notes!

- Spotify integration bug fixes. What do you mean? Nothing’s getting in the way between you, your run, and the latest Bieber hit.

- Workout rewards bug fixes. Redeeming those rewards should be a breeze, once again.


You can download Runkeeper from the App Store for free.
