100% free and donation supported — no paywall. New Peetimes added weekly for every new movie. Find out when to go without missing the best scenes.
You know that feeling. You're watching an amazing movie, your drink kicks in, and you're stuck choosing between missing a key scene or suffering through the rest of the film.
RunPee solves this. We tell you the best times to take a bathroom break during a movie — without missing anything important. RunPee is 100% free and supported entirely by donations from our community — no paywall.
HOW IT WORKS
Before the movie starts, look up your film in RunPee. You'll see a list of Peetimes, each carefully chosen by our expertly trained staff. Peetimes are scenes in a movie, usually 3-4 minutes long, that are easy to summarize without missing anything important, like a dramatic scene, or funny moment, or exciting action. Each Peetime includes:
• When to go (a cue so you know exactly when it starts)
• How long the bathroom break lasts
• A short summary (hidden unless you tap) of what happened, so you don't have to ask anyone, "What did I miss?"
Start the RunPee timer when the movie begins. The app will gently vibrate 30 seconds before each Peetime starts, so you're never caught off guard.
ANYTHING EXTRA AFTER THE CREDITS?
Wondering if there are post-credits scenes worth staying for? RunPee's "Anything Extra" feature tells you — without spoilers — whether there are mid-credit or end-credit scenes after the movie. No more sitting through 10 minutes of credits for nothing.
PEETIMES FOR EVERY NEW RELEASE
Our team watches every major release and hand-picks the best Peetimes. New movies are added weekly. We've covered over 1,900 movies and counting.
DESIGNED FOR THE THEATER

Download RunPee — your bladder will thank you.
I’ve been using this app for probably 10 years now, great for movies and changed the way I watch em

Like i said in the title, I downloaded this app after an Ifunny posting in like 2013 or something. I was probably 13 or so, and have been religiously using it every time I go to the theater. As someone who enjoys soda and even large pops, it’s great, but even better if you’re strapped for cash, have to buy a small, and refill it. I mean I tell everyone about this app I go to the movies with, or if it comes up in conversation I praise it. Not only is the core feature such a genius idea, but then they have continued to innovate and improve with peeples polls and such, also telling you if there is something after the credits. It’s like having the worlds knowledge on the movie you are watching without spoilers. Love it and can’t recommend enough. Hope they continue it for years to come, I donate when I can but there’s no ads or anyway to make money besides dono so you know they’re in it for the right reasons. I’ll stand by being a peeple forever, thank you runpee for helping with my small bladder!
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it

This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let's you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It's really a wonderful app. I've subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn't seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven't tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Movie Watching Must Have!!

I go feral for this app. I love it so much and I wish everyone knew about it and used it. It is incredibly useful and I would be devastated if this app ever disappeared. Things I love: 1) the pee times! It’s so handy to know the best time to go and then read the synopsis of what’s happening while I’m gone. I never have to worry about missing the good bits! 2) knowing if there is a post-credits scene or not. This might be my fav feature because I would have missed out on some pretty critical scenes if it weren’t for RunPee. 3) the movie review and viewer rankings. This info has made me watch some movies that I normally wouldn’t and it’s nice seeing things outside of my usual scope. 4) that it’s a small family run business. I love shopping small and it really does feel like I’m part of the RunPee family! If you reach out to them, Dan will personally respond to you and he is so warm and helpful. GET THIS APP AND THEN SUBSCRIBE! It is absolutely worth it and you’ll be using it again and again!
Peed during Dr Strange & didn’t miss a thing!
fairypufff
I don’t see too many movies in theaters nowadays (post-covid). I’m a fan of Netflix and HBO Max. But Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness just came out and my boyfriend and I just had to see it ASAP. We saw it in a nice theater, snuck in our own snacks and bought some refreshments as well. It’s a two hour movie and after one hour I already had to pee. I had pressed download on this app right when the movie started, and there was horrible reception, so it didn’t download in time for me to use the timer feature (you start the timer at a noted part of the beginning of the movie, and it will tell you where you are in the movie and it can also buzz to tell you good times to go pee). I knew what time the movie started at though, so I could calculate how far we were into the movie, and it also tells you what line to listen for so you can go run and pee. This second Dr. Strange movie had three times it recommended to pee, I was able to catch the third. I heard the line, ran and peed, and got back right as the scene was ending (perfect timing!). It tells you how long you have to pee before the scene ends. It also gives you a synopsis of exactly what happened while you were gone. It was supposedly a really basic scene of the characters just running, but it told me exactly who ran and what happened, etc. It even told us when the two extra end scenes post-credits were (: I was very happy to have it and I will use it anytime I go to a theater, or even if I’m just with a bunch of people watching a movie and don’t want to make anyone pause it for me. Would recommend! I can’t recall ever writing an app store review to be honest, but this app is so genius and it doesn’t seem to have enough of a name for itself given how great it is so I thought I’d help out. (: P.S. The app explains they actually have a staff member go see the movies and choose the perfect scenes to pee during, so you know you’re not getting a bad recommendation from a random user!
