Cheers! 🥳 Cheer on your friends and family live during their run or walk, right from the app. Send a personal cheer along the way, like the cheers you receive yourself, and make your run even more fun with live cheers read out through your headphones. At a glance you can also see how many (new) cheers are waiting for you.
Your favourite events are now right on your home screen. See at a glance which races are coming up or live, and you're one tap away from watching. We've also made several small improvements and bug fixes for an even smoother experience.
The map now includes the lead vehicle, sweep vehicle and first aid. So you don't just see where the participants are, but how the whole race is unfolding. Even more overview, even easier to follow!
We're changing course: nobody wants a subscription for just a few races a year.
From now on you can share your races for free.
We noticed runners sometimes forgot to activate live tracking amid all the pre-race commotion. Completely understandable, of course — our lock screen widget helps you not to forget.
When starting your race you can now enter the distance in kilometres instead of metres.
You can now share anything on your mind with us via the feedback form in your profile.
If we can't or aren't allowed to publish a GPX, you can upload your own GPX for your race so your followers can still see you on the route.
You can now also use Race With Me to track your bike rides.
Fixed an issue where stopping your live tracking session immediately marked it as DNF.
Spectators can now see their own location on the live map too.
Not sure which route you'll run yet? You can now start without a route.
The price of a Single Race Pass has been lowered to €2.99!
Big release 🥳
From now on you can create and share your own race. Open the GPX on your phone and share it with the Race With Me app.
We've introduced Race Passes: share a single race, or go for an Unlimited Pass at a sharp price.
Have a great race!
