Never lose
a mile again.
Auto-pause killed your climb. You forgot to unpause after the water stop. Three miles of your best effort — gone.
PeakPulse was built to make that impossible.
The problem with auto-pause
"Auto-pause triggered on my steepest climb because I was moving too slowly laterally. Lost 800 feet of elevation gain."
"Paused at the aid station. Forgot to resume. Didn't notice until 4 miles later."
"My best trail run this year shows 6 miles instead of 9 because of false pauses on technical terrain."
Every recording app has the same flaw: when it pauses, your GPS data stops. The track is gone. You can't get it back.
GPS never stops.
Ever.
PeakPulse records every GPS point from start to finish — whether you're "paused" or not. Pause is a marker in your data stream, not a kill switch.
-
Record without worry
Hit start and forget about it. Auto-pause detects stops, but your GPS track keeps recording underneath. No gaps. No lost data.
-
Smart detection, not dumb thresholds
PeakPulse considers elevation change, not just lateral speed. Grinding up a steep switchback at 15 min/mile? That's not a stop — that's the hardest part of your run.

Built by runners,
for runners.
PeakPulse is made by a small team of trail runners and mountain bikers who use the app on every single workout. We built it because we were tired of losing data to bad algorithms, and no one else was fixing the problem.
Updates come fast. When Apple ships a new feature, we're on it. When you hit a paper cut on the trail, we feel it too. This isn't a product built by people who jog on treadmills — it's built on singletrack, on switchbacks, and on summit pushes.
