Welcome to Upwards: Hiking & Biking
Accurate Elevation Pacing for Outdoor Enthusiasts
*Built for Elevation*
Upwards is a workout tracker for activities with significant elevation gain — hiking, trail running, or stair climbing. It focuses on what other apps get wrong: accurate, repeatable elevation data and meaningful pacing information for going uphill.
*Accurate Elevation Tracking*
Upwards fuses GPS and barometer data to deliver accurate, repeatable elevation values. Real-time cumulative gain and loss are always front and center.
*Elevation Pacing*
See your recent elevation pace alongside your heart rate so you know exactly how hard you’re working. Configurable voice announcements keep you updated on elapsed time, elevation gain, and pace without having to look at your phone.
*Heart Rate & HealthKit*
Live heart rate is displayed throughout your workout. All workouts sync to Apple Health so your data is available alongside your other fitness activity.
*Workout History*
Browse your completed workouts with elevation profiles and summary stats for every session.
