Your run. Your canvas.
Runvas turns running into an act of expression. Sketch any shape, trace a word, or let the app compose a route that fits your pace — then go run what you drew.
This isn't another tracker that just counts miles. Runvas is the first running app built for people who want their route to mean something. Paint a heart through your neighborhood. Spell your kid's name across the park. Sign the city.
— WHAT YOU CAN DO —
• DRAW ANY SHAPE
Tap, drag, or trace freehand. Runvas snaps your sketch onto real streets using walkable, runnable routes — no illegal shortcuts through buildings.
• WRITE WITH YOUR FEET
Type a word and Runvas plots each letter across the map, perfectly proportioned to your target distance.
• CHOOSE FROM A LIBRARY OF SHAPES
Hearts, dinosaurs, lightning bolts, peace signs — pick a shape, drop it anywhere, and it auto-sizes to hit your goal mileage.
• RUN PREVIEW
Watch your planned route animate before you step outside. Know exactly where you're going — and how long it'll feel.
• GPX EXPORT
One tap sends your route to Strava, Garmin Connect, Apple Health, or your watch. Your art, your stats, everywhere you want them.
• LAYERS
Design a whole session. A warm-up letter, a main-event shape, a cool-down loop — stacked, saved, and runnable in any order.
— WHY RUNVAS? —
Most running apps ask you to care about splits. Runvas asks you to care about what you leave behind.
Every route you run is a brushstroke on a map that nobody else will ever run the same way. You're not logging miles — you're making something. And when you're done, you've got a shareable piece of your city, traced in your own footsteps.
— BUILT FOR —
• Runners who've plateaued on the same 5K loop and want variety
• Strava artists who want the drawing tool as good as the run itself
• Anyone who runs for fun more than for finish times
• Parents, couples, and friends who want to run meaningful routes for each other
• Coaches and trainers looking for a creative way to hit weekly mileage
— FREE. ADS BETWEEN GENERATIONS. OPTIONAL ONE-TIME UPGRADE. —
Runvas is free to use, forever. A brief ad appears between every few generations. If you love it, a single one-time purchase removes ads for the lifetime of your account. No subscription. No surprises.
— PRIVACY —
Your routes live on your device and sync to your account — that's it. We don't sell your location, we don't share your data. You can run Runvas without creating an account at all.
— START PAINTING —
Your city is waiting to be drawn on. Download Runvas, sketch something, and go run it. It's that simple.

Smoother routes, snappier hearts. Squashed a few bugs along the way.
