As featured in The Wall Street Journal. 100% free and donation supported — no paywall. New Peetimes every week for every new movie, so you never miss the best scenes.
You know that feeling. You're watching an amazing movie, your drink kicks in, and you're stuck choosing between missing a key scene or suffering through the rest of the film.
RunPee solves this. We tell you the best times to take a bathroom break during a movie — without missing anything important. RunPee is 100% free and supported entirely by donations from our community — no paywall.
HOW IT WORKS
Before the movie starts, look up your film in RunPee. You'll see a list of Peetimes, each carefully chosen by our expertly trained staff. Peetimes are scenes in a movie, usually 3-4 minutes long, that are easy to summarize without missing anything important, like a dramatic scene, or funny moment, or exciting action. Each Peetime includes:
• When to go (a cue so you know exactly when it starts)
• How long the bathroom break lasts
• A short summary (hidden unless you tap) of what happened, so you don't have to ask anyone, "What did I miss?"
Start the RunPee timer when the movie begins. The app will gently vibrate 30 seconds before each Peetime starts, so you're never caught off guard.
ANYTHING EXTRA AFTER THE CREDITS?
Wondering if there are post-credits scenes worth staying for? RunPee's "Anything Extra" feature tells you — without spoilers — whether there are mid-credit or end-credit scenes after the movie. No more sitting through 10 minutes of credits for nothing.
PEETIMES FOR EVERY NEW RELEASE
Our team watches every major release and hand-picks the best Peetimes. New movies are added weekly. We've covered over 1,900 movies and counting.
DESIGNED FOR THE THEATER
Dark theme, silent vibration alerts, minimal screen brightness. RunPee is designed to be invisible to everyone in the cinema except you.

TRUSTED BY MOVIEGOERS FOR 18+ YEARS
RunPee was created by Dan Gardner, a moviegoer who had one too many badly-timed bathroom breaks. What started as a simple idea in 2008 has grown into the original movie bathroom break app, trusted by hundreds of thousands of movie fans worldwide.

Ratings & Reviews
This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
PEEPLE'S POLL, REDESIGNED
See how a movie did against what people expected of it, not just whether they liked it. The crowd's verdict stays hidden until you've voted, so it can't sway your grade.
JUMP STRAIGHT TO ANY PEETIME
A strip of icons down the side of the Peetimes screen takes you straight to any Peetime, the Movie Meta, or Anything Extra. You choose what it shows and which side it sits on.
MOVIES FOR YOUR COUNTRY
Some movies only open in a few countries. RunPee now shows them where they're playing, so your list matches what's in your cinemas.
A SMARTER TIMER
Pausing the Timer now pauses its alerts too, and they pick up right on time when you resume. If your phone is blocking alerts, the Timer tells you and shows you how to fix it.
YOUR LANGUAGE, FROM THE START
RunPee starts in your phone's language, in more than 40 languages. Arabic, Persian and Hebrew read right to left.
A SIMPLER MENU
The three icons at the top of the screen open one tabbed screen, with far less to scroll through.
YOUR ACCOUNT STAYS YOURS
Now and then we'll email you a six-digit code to confirm it's you.
DOWNLOAD YOUR DATA
Everything RunPee holds about you, in one file, whenever you want it.
FIXES
The bottom of the screen is no longer hidden behind the navigation bar, Peeple's Poll votes no longer go missing, and your movie library and settings are much safer if something goes wrong on your phone.
