Show HN: Open-source running app on the App store
github.comApps should be free. A running app doesn’t need a backend. Your phone has GPS, motion sensors, and storage. There is no reason to pay a subscription for software that runs entirely on your device. This one is free, with no ads, no in-app purchases, and no account.
Every running app I’ve used wants an account, syncs to the cloud, and shares data with third parties. I wanted an app where all data stays on device.
The future of apps is going to be open source. Fork it, make a PR, add an issue.
Check it out on the apple store:
https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/freepace/id6760371864 I built this with Claude code and a ralph-like bash loop. I made lots of iterations, tests, and bug fixes. You can see the PRs at the top level of the directory.
