Pilgrim — Mindful Walking
Voice Journal & Meditation
Only for iPhone

iPhone
Share a walk. Receive a reading back — one true sentence about the sky at the moment you walked. New in 1.3.0.
Every walk holds something waiting to be noticed.
Pilgrim is a walking companion for those who walk with intention — whether across a continent or around the block. No leaderboards. No calorie goals. No social feeds. Just you, the path, and whatever arises.
WALK
GPS tracking with live pace, steps, altitude, and waypoint marking. A three-way time breakdown shows how each walk splits between walking, talking, and meditating — because those are different states of attention. Lock your screen and keep walking — Live Activity shows your duration and distance right on the lock screen.
LEAVE A WHISPER
Place an ephemeral audio message at your location for other pilgrims to discover. Choose from seven energies — presence, lightness, wonder, gratitude, compassion, courage, stillness — and set how long it lingers: one day, one week, or one month. Walk near someone else's whisper and it plays softly, a voice from a stranger who once passed this way.
PLACE A STONE
Start or grow a cairn wherever you walk. Cairns are permanent landmarks that evolve through seven tiers as more pilgrims add their stones — from a faint mark to an eternal cairn of 108 stones. Each tier carries its own kanji, presence, and meaning. Walk to a cairn to see who has been here before you.
RECORD
Tap to capture a voice note at any moment. Each recording is timestamped and pinned to your location. After the walk, everything is transcribed on your device using WhisperKit — no audio ever leaves your phone.
REFLECT
Six styles of writing prompts — contemplative, reflective, creative, gratitude, philosophical, journaling — generated from your own words and walk context. Copy them into your favorite writing tool and turn a walk into writing.
MEDITATE
A dedicated meditation mode with an animated breathing circle and customizable rhythms. Downloadable voice guide packs offer spoken prompts during stillness. Ambient soundscapes accompany your practice. Meditation time is tracked separately and shown alongside walk time.
WALK WITH THE COLLECTIVE
See how far pilgrims have walked together. An anonymous counter tracks the collective distance — no accounts, no identifiers. Watch as the community crosses pilgrimage milestones: the Camino de Santiago, the Shikoku 88, the length of Japan.
PILGRIM COLLECTS GOSHUIN
In Japan, pilgrims collect vermilion ink stamps at temples along a route. Pilgrim generates a digital seal for each walk, derived from its unique data — distance, duration, weather, elevation. Your collection grows with your practice.
YOUR WALK IS YOURS ALONE
Everything stays on your device. Transcription is on-device. There are no accounts, no analytics, no behavioral profiling. When you delete the app, your data goes with it — unless you exported it first.
Weather awareness via WeatherKit. Moon phases, zodiac signs, and planetary hours woven into the walk context. Seasonal color shifts calibrated to your hemisphere. Export as .pilgrim packages. Share walks as ephemeral web pages or hand-painted etegami postcards. View your entire journey at view.pilgrimapp.org.
Open source. Free forever. No subscriptions.

The sky remembers where you walked.
Share a walk and receive a reading back — one true sentence about the sky at the moment you walked. The supermoon you missed. The equinox you didn't notice. The 14 minutes before sunrise when you set out. Every walk gets one, every reading is true.
Meditation sessions now keep the screen lit the whole way through. The whisper catalog is now dynamic — new whispers arrive without updates.
Walk well.
