RunBuilder
Build intervals, map courses
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: Courses. Tap out a route on the map, snap it to real roads, watch distance and elevation build as you go, then run it with your route on screen.
RunBuilder turns the workout in your head — or the one buried in your coach's email — into a structured session you can actually run.

BUILT FOR iPHONE AND iPAD
Large, readable run screens meant to be glanced at mid-stride, whether the phone is in your hand or the iPad is propped on a treadmill.
Workouts, settings, and courses sync across your devices with iCloud. Widgets put today's session on your Home Screen, and Siri and Shortcuts can create or start one hands-free.
RUNBUILDER PRO
Building workouts, mapping courses, running them, and saving to Apple Health are all free. No account required.
RunBuilder Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks:
• Sending workouts to Garmin Connect and Wahoo
• Scheduling workouts to Apple Watch
• Engo smart glasses support
• Race Goal, which builds a session around your target race and finish time
• Nested repeats, for complex interval structures
Note: RunBuilder schedules workouts to the built-in Workout app on Apple Watch; there is no separate watch app to install. Course elevation comes from a terrain model and is approximate, especially among tall buildings.
COURSES
Plan where you run, not just how you run.
• Build a course by tapping points on the map. Your route snaps to real roads and paths as you go, or switch snapping off for tracks and trails.
• Distance and elevation gain update live while you build, so you can hit a target distance before you leave the house.
• Mile or kilometer markers sit right on the route, matching the units you already use.
• Search for a starting point anywhere, or start from where you're standing.
• Retrace to Start doubles a route back on itself for an out-and-back. Route to Start closes a loop along the roads.
• Undo and redo any point while you build.
• Save courses by name. They sync across your devices with iCloud.
• Duplicate a saved course to build a variation without touching the original.
• Review the elevation profile, with distance and elevation on labeled axes, before you head out.
• Run a course outdoors with your route and your live position on screen.
ALSO IN THIS RELEASE
• Refreshed map controls in the course builder: larger, higher-contrast buttons that stay readable over busy map detail.
• Clearer guidance while building a course, and a start point that's easy to pick out at a glance.
