Time every runner and share results live. Families follow on any phone, colleagues time on theirs, and new timed lap events make Cooper tests and lap-a-thons easy.
Run Lap Tap is the fastest way to time cross country races, track laps, and celebrate progress — built for cross country coaches, PE teachers, and running clubs.
Tap a name. Record a finish. That's it.
Set up a cross country race, lap event, or time trial in seconds. Add your squad from a roster, hit start, and tap runners as they cross the line. Every split, every finish position, every personal best — captured instantly.
FOUR WAYS TO RECORD
Use whatever works for your setup:
• Tap — tap runner cards on-screen as they pass
• Bib Entry — type bib numbers on a keypad
• QR Codes — scan printed QR labels with the camera
• NFC — tap NFC wristbands for hands-free recording
LIVE EVENTS
Go live and share a link families can watch — a race clock and results that update as you record, no app needed. Other teachers join with a code and time from their own phones, every tap flowing into your official results.
THREE EVENT MODES
• Race — mass start, tap to finish
• Lap Timing — multi-lap events with individual splits and colour-coded cards that change with each lap
• Time Trial — staggered starts with individual timing
UNLIMITED LAPS MODE
Don't know how many laps? Set laps to "Unlimited" and let runners keep going. Finish them manually when time is up — perfect for timed fitness sessions.
ROSTERS & QR LABELS
Create class rosters, import from CSV or paste a list. Every runner gets a persistent QR code — print them once as A4 PDF sheets and reuse across every event all year.
ACHIEVEMENTS & BADGES
35 auto-awarded badges across six categories: distance milestones (1km to 100km), consistency, personal bests, improvement, speed, and fun achievements. Runners earn badges like "Half Marathon Hero" and "Lightning Lap" as they participate — no extra work for you.
PROGRESS TRACKING
See cumulative distance, total laps, event history, and personal bests for every runner. Track class-wide stats, set distance or lap goals, and watch progress rings fill up over the term.
CERTIFICATES
Generate printable PDF certificates for milestones, event completions, personal bests, or create your own custom awards. Bulk-generate for the whole class in one tap.
CLASS ANALYTICS
Combined class distance, participation rates, achievement counts, and per-runner breakdowns — with an anonymisation toggle for displaying on screen.
EXPORT EVERYTHING
Share results as CSV or formatted PDF reports. Export QR label sheets. Everything is shareable via email, AirDrop, or cloud storage.
iCLOUD SYNC
All data syncs automatically across your iPhone and iPad. Set up rosters on one device, time events on another.
FREE TO USE
Run Lap Tap is free with up to 2 rosters and 30 runners per event — enough for most classes. Need more? Upgrade to Pro for unlimited everything, or grab a single Race Pass to unlock one big event — both include live events.

Love the app. Used it in my team's track meet just last night and have all the key stats at my fingertips today. I will be reviewing times with my runners at practice today.I'd love to see a few more features included, but as a starting point it's great!
Does not keep accurate time
Scully231
The app did not reflect an accurate race time when compared to a watch. It’s possible the app stops timing if the phone/tablet goes to sleep.
Good start

I am a pe teacher and I intended to use this app for running the mile. Unfortunately it seems to freeze as I try to import new names. In order to see the names/ use the stopwatch for them, I have to quit the app and restart. You also have to do the same to delete the names. This it make it hard when I have a large class requiring multiple heats.
1/2 way useful
cduggan13
Decent app however you can only use it for up to 12 students at once. I do not see a way to easily setup multiple classes and switch between class lists. Has potential but needs to be ironed out.
Race-day fixes.
• Pause now keeps the correct time. After pausing and resuming, the clock could jump back and affect times recorded afterwards. Thanks to the teacher who reported it
• The screen now stays on while you're timing, so your phone won't lock at the finish line
• The race clock stays accurate even if your phone locks during an event
