Running has a DJ now.
Volta is a running app built around the music — with three ways to run.
LET IT DJ — during the run, Volta cues each next track to how you're actually moving.
PLAN IT — before you go, Volta builds a playlist matched to your target pace and cadence.
JUST PRESS PLAY — run to your own music, and Volta maps it for you.
Whichever you choose, your route and your listening land on one timeline afterward — so you can see exactly what every song did to your pace.
MUSIC THAT READS YOUR BODY
In Match My Vibe mode, Volta watches how you're moving and picks the next song to match. Want to steer? Tap Hype to push the energy up, or Cool to bring it down — anytime.
PLAN THE PLAYLIST BEFORE YOU GO
Set your target pace, distance, and energy curve, and Volta builds a playlist shaped for that exact run. See every track's BPM before you start, and swap or reorder anything until it's yours.
EVERY SONG, SHOWN ON THE MAP
Your route, colored by pace and split by track. Tap any segment to see what was playing and how fast you were moving there.
THE SONG THAT MADE YOU FASTEST
After every run, Volta surfaces your Power Track — the one song you ran fastest to, with your pace on it and how far above your average it pushed you.
YOUR SONGS, RANKED BY WHAT THEY DO FOR YOU
Your whole library, sorted by the pace you actually ran to each track. Filter by month, sort by pace, and find the songs that reliably deliver — so your next playlist is built on what works.
KNOW WHEN YOU HIT FLOW
When your steps per minute lock to the beat, running feels easier. Volta shows you which tracks matched your stride and which didn't — so you learn what carries you.
SHARE IT
Turn any run into a clean, shareable image — your route, your top tracks, your pace — ready for your camera roll or your feed.
Volta works with Apple Music and Apple Health.
I was an early beta tester for Volta and have been using the Match My Vibe feature for almost a month now. At first, I found some of the song choices a little unusual and not necessarily what I would have picked myself, but after using it for a while, the logic really started to click.The way Volta picks songs based on your cadence is actually pretty amazing. When the rhythm matches your running tempo, it does something to your brain where you naturally lock into a rhythm and just keep going. I’ve found it especially fun on longer runs when I want to switch things up from my usual playlists.There are still a few glitches here and there, but the dev team is super responsive and has addressed every concern I’ve raised within a day or two, which is really impressive for a beta product.I’d definitely recommend Volta to anyone who wants to switch things up on their long runs and try something genuinely new.
Tracks that match my taste
Shaggy6767
I was a big fan of Volta as someone who likes to run while listening to music. I used the Match my Vibe feature so that tracks matching my running tempo were continuously queued up. It was great for me to step out of my regular routine of my running playlist. I also liked the graphics and summaries that were generated after the workout.
pace per song!!!

This is genius, a layer of data that I have not seen before. Only downside is it’s Apple Music only which is fine for me but some of my friends can’t use it.Playlists can sometimes not be the best but the core product is great!
Great Idea

It’s very user friendly!! I always wonder how songs actually impacts my runs. Being able to see pace, cadence, BPM with each song is great! it even create a playlist for you depending on what you’re training for
Introducing a lock screen controller - The run shows on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island while you run, with time, distance and pace, plus Pause and End buttons. The card has the Volta bolt, and its status line says whether it's showing your run or your music.
