Thanks for using MapMyFitness, MapMyRun, MapMyRide, or MapMyWalk! To get started using the app, select the app icon from your home screen. If you haven't registered with us, you can create an account by tapping "Join Now." If you have registered in the past, tap "Log In" to enter your email and password.
The first time you open the app, you will be greeted with a request to allow your MapMy app to use your GPS/Location Services even when not in use. This needs to be enabled to accurately track your workouts.
After allowing Location Services, a tutorial will appear to walk you through the app's basic functionality. The Location Services and tutorial prompts can be restored by deleting and reinstalling the app.
Track Workout
The app's home page is the "Start Workout" screen. You can always get back to this page by clicking the stopwatch in the bottom left corner of the screen.
To customize your workout settings, including activity type and voice feedback preferences, tap the Settings icon. This will open the Workout Setup page, which allows you to change activity type, select gear for your workout, enable voice feedback and more. If you don't see the activity type you want, tap "See All Activities," and then tap "All" to search for the activity type.
Once your workout settings are correct, tap the back button in the upper left corner to return to the Track Workout screen. Then tap the "Start Workout" button to begin recording a workout.
After you start recording a workout, the app will track your route and display your workout statistics, including distance, duration, pace, calorie burn, heart rate (if connected), as well as additional customizable stats.
To pause your workout, tap the "Pause Workout" button. Once paused, you can either resume your workout or end your workout. To end your workout, hold down the "HOLD TO FINISH" Button. After finishing a workout, a workout cannot be resumed.
After finishing a workout, you will be able to customize your workout post. You can choose which stats you'd like displayed, add a note or photo to your workout, and select your preferred privacy setting for your workout.
If you took photos during your workout, the first one you took will be featured on your workout post. You can change which photo is featured by tapping on any of the pictures below at the bottom of your screen. The featured photo is highlighted in green with a star. Up to five photos may be added to your workout.
You can now customize which stats are featured in your workout post by tapping "Select Stats". By default, three stats will be auto-filled; however, you can change these stats by tapping once on the stat you'd like to replace, and then once on the stat below that you'd like to have featured.
Important note: if you do not have a photo associated with your workout, you cannot customize the stats that are featured on your workout post.
To save and sync your workout to our servers, you must go back and slick "Save Workout".
Log a Workout
Logging a workout is best reserved for indoor/stationary workouts that do not use GPS to measure distance, or for workouts you already completed.
To log a workout, tap menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the top left corner of the screen and select "Log Workout." From the "Log Workout" page, you can enter workout date, activity type, route (if applicable), distance, duration, caloric burn, and more.

Activity Feed
Your Activity Feed is where all content generated by you, your friends, and the community is shared. As long as the privacy setting is set to "friends" or "public," all workouts or posts created by your friends can be viewed here, much like the Newsfeed on Facebook.
To view, you and your friends' workouts and posts, tap "Activity Feed" icon in the bottom left corner of the screen. You can toggle between Community, Friends, and Me views.
