Your workouts live in Apple Health and on your device. We only collect anonymous usage data to improve the app, never linked to you. ADAPTIVE TRAINING THAT ACTUALLY WORKS Smart Runner uses VDOT, the system from Jack Daniels' Running Formula, to measure your fitness from a recent race result and build a rolling plan around it. - Adaptive 2-week plan that rebuilds after every run - VDOT pace zones: easy, tempo, interval and race pace - Beginner-friendly starting paces, so easy runs feel easy from week one - ATL / CTL / TSB load tracking, the metrics elite coaches use - Post-run analysis: see what each session actually built - Apple Watch: structured workouts with haptic cues on your wrist - HealthKit: every run imported automatically - Garmin supported - Strava sync: pull in runs you've already logged - Daily reminder at the time you choose BUILT FOR - First-timers building toward a 5K or 10K - Half and full marathoners chasing a time goal - Runners coming back from a break who need a structured rebuild - Anyone who wants coaching-grade metrics without coaching prices PRICING Start free.

What’s new
Version 2.2.0 · Updated November 1, 2026
Pick the time your daily reminder arrives. Open Settings, then Schedule, and set it for when you actually lace up, whether that is before sunrise or after dinner. New to running? Your plan now starts from where you really are. Beginner paces are no longer pushed up to a minimum that was too fast, so easy runs feel easy from the first week. Your music keeps playing. Voice cues on your phone and your watch dip the volume for a moment and hand it right back, even after a phone call. Lace up and enjoy the run.
