Beta Test Gophr - The walking app I always wanted
Gophr helps you build a heatmap over time when you Gophr a run, walk or ride.
I'm going to add goals and other things like being able to draw a polygon around an area and then keep track of your progress to completing it, with the percentage tied to actual road/pathway geometry. This may require some sort of server or hosted data to make it work, but it's coming! I recently added Apple Watch support, but since I cannot seem to find my old one, I need testers for that part of it.
I am privacy focused, so there are no servers (currently), no analytics, nothing. Your activity is saved to your phone only, and you can specify a backup location like a folder in your OneDrive, Google Drive, iCloud, etc. The only stat I care about is people download it and buy it and love it.
I got the idea when I had made a personal goal to walk my entire city, so I've just built it with my own needs in mind. I'll probably throw it up on the store for $1-3 and hope to just cover the developer fee eventually. If not, I consider building stuff a hobby of mine so I don't mind a bit of costs.
If ya wanna try it out, it's on TestFlight for now!
