Run Buddy AI

Run Buddy AI helps you choose, run, and understand the workout that matters today. Start a Free Run, follow a structured workout, or use the coach recommendation when Apple Intelligence or your personal AI provider is available. You can add a GPX route to any kind of run. It remains an optional reference and never replaces workout targets, steps, or distance. TURN YOUR RUNS INTO ROUTES Create a route from a run recorded in Run Buddy. Keep the full trace or, when a repeated loop is clearly recognized, one lap with or without the approach and return. Your original run is preserved. Explore the map, distance, and elevation profile when the data is reliable. Rename the route, export it as a GPX file, select it for your next run, or delete it without losing past workouts. DURING THE RUN Audio coaching announces starts, transitions, recoveries, and effort changes. During sufficiently long blocks and free phases, the coach can interpret your recent effort, consistency, completed kilometres, and elevation actually observed. Pace messages remain steady when you run close to the target. Choose an Apple voice for each language and preview it before running. Voxtral voices also offer previews when that engine is configured. AFTER THE RUN Review consistency, history, and coach analysis in a clear progression view. Run Buddy also builds pace references from the blocks you actually completed. They describe observed performance rather than mandatory zones. At the end of a workout, say whether it felt too easy, about right, or too hard, and optionally add a written comment. The coach includes this feedback in its recap, and you can edit it later from the run details. If you choose, Run Buddy AI connects to Apple Health to bring together runs recorded with the app, Apple Watch, or another compatible watch. Available heart-rate data can enrich the analysis.
