iOS app to help me hit my daily step goals

In 2020, I started walking more and more. I was annoyed with having to constantly check my phone to see my step count and plotting a route that was sufficiently long enough. Over the next few weeks, I built Walking Route, which lets you generate a custom route of any length or quickly generate routes 5,000 steps or 10,000 steps in length. Plus, the route will always return you back to where you started from. I live in San Francisco and since it generates a new walking route every time, one of the unexpected consequences was that it helped me explore areas of the city I probably wouldn't have…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

In 2020, I started walking more and more. I was annoyed with having to constantly check my phone to see my step count and plotting a route that was sufficiently long enough. Over the next few weeks, I built Walking Route, which lets you generate a custom route of any length or quickly generate routes 5,000 steps or 10,000 steps in length. Plus, the route will always return you back to where you started from. I live in San Francisco and since it generates a new walking route every time, one of the unexpected consequences was that it helped me explore areas of the city I probably wouldn't have checked out otherwise. It's completely free and has helped me maintain my stay active during quarantine, just wanted to share it with this community as well: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/walking-routes/id1554790655

    Bike route planner that follows almost only official bike trails2024 · trailimap.com · ▲279

    Hey guys, I built a route planner that is mostly focused on bike touring and using existing bike infrastructure. For each request you're shown what bike tracks/trails your route uses and can further explore them by showing them on map or going to the official trail route. The main idea for the app is to have a friendly and easy to use planner that would make heavy use of official bike trails data (mainly from OpenStreetMap) and make it easy to plan a longer trip using the best possible bike routes out there. Currently the app only works for the Euro region but I'm planning to add North…
