[Free] YouRace: the new Apple Watch app for runners!

[kecinzer]

Today I ran with app and I have few reflections.
1) I turned off voice alert (because my Siri voice s Czech and reads english text) and every 1 km I can see popup but without any vibration. Will be posaible to add it?
2) Will be possible to add automatic playback of selected Apple Music Playlist like in stock workout app?

It's fun, the first issue is fixed in 2.0.8 version that Apple is still "validating". So you will have the haptic feedback at each kilometer without activating the voice.
For the second question, I have to look into that, I have to check if it's possible for third party app.

 

[kecinzer]

WOW, that was fast. You are great! Thank you.
Wish you luck with marathon! I also planned run one this year, but I don't have shape for it yet. My longest run is only 32 km .

 

[rbart]

It was fast because I have fixed the issue before your request ...
I have noticed that last week ...
I hope YouRace will be reliable enough to handle my loooooooooooooog run (my Series 5 battery is a bit tired )

 

[kecinzer]

I would recommand you to bring your iPhone with you. AW will use phones GPS.

 

[rbart]

I know, but I want to be light

Disabling Wifi and turning "always on" off will help the battery a bit.

There is a challenge : who is going to last more ?
The watch or the runner ? 😉
The version 2.0.8 has been delayed a bit. I have included a last minute bug fix (for "saving" screens).
It's now waiting for Apple review

 

[rbart]

Finally… Version 2.0.8 is available for everyone !

YouRace did it !

YouRace did it !

More than well done 👍👊🏼 I ran a marathon test in Copenhagen, which is only a half in the training program. I didn’t use my Apple Watch ⌚️ 🙈🤷🏻‍♂.

Do you use a heart rate strap or relay on the watch?

 

[rbart]

I have only used my Apple Watch (with my iPhone in my belt to be sure to have enough battery life).
I have validated that YouRace is able to track a loooong and sloooooow run
It's a huge amount of data !

Nice !
You are lot faster than me.
My "test" half marathon was in 1:39 ...

A feature that’s used by my fellow runners, maybe something you could add.

 

[rbart]

If I understand, it's a feature to set a target pace.
I have this in my backlog ...

That’s right 👍 You are supposed to “lap” when you pass a official km mark, and then the app ajust your estimated finish time based on your current pace.

 

[rbart]

The distance fix is here since the beginning. It's the first specific feature I have put into the app.
The target pace is in the todo list.
I have to find an easy way to display that efficiently .

Wow just catching up here! I tested last year in the fall, but the lack of Strava export held me back. Seems like a great time to re-test and maybe invest in the Pro version Will check back soon. Just did the Copenhagen half-marathon Sunday as well and training for CPH Marathon this May, so great time to explore.

 

[rbart]

I hope you will enjoy it ...
And it's cheap, with no subscription, the risk is limited !

Great to hear from another Dane 🇩🇰
I use @rungap to export to Strava or Garmin Connect.
What time did you finish in @xDKP ?

 

[Psdn]

Did a long run yesterday. Started with 💯 % battery, and after 3 hours and 20 minutes I had 49% battery left. I ran with aod and no 📱.
Would it be possible to disable auto lap?

 

[rbart]

You can disable the voice alert for km or mile notifications but not completely disable the popup notification.
I can add a setting in a next release.

My marathon, last week, has raised some performance issue when displaying huge amount of data (I am too slow …)
I have improved performance of the iOS app when displaying loooooooong runs in version 2.0.9 which is available on the App Store https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/yourace/id1572073081
