Circuit

Collect the world's places through fitness.

Circuit builds you running routes to explore wherever you are. Tell it how far you want to go, and it generates a loop from right where you're standing that passes the best-rated nearby parks, landmarks, and hidden gems along the way.

No manual route planning, no guessing where to go in a new city. Just pick a distance or a length of time and run. Every place you pass gets collected into a personal journal, with badges for the distance, streaks, and cities you explore along the way.

Why I Built Circuit

I've always loved running, and I've always loved the idea of exploring a new place on foot. A few of my favorite creators have said the same thing: the best way to actually see a city is to run through it. You notice things you'd drive right past, you're out in the open air, and you get to wander without much of a plan.

That's most of why I built Circuit. I wanted to land somewhere new, open the app, and go, instead of googling where to run in a city I'd never been to or spending twenty minutes stitching together a route myself.

I grew up loving Pokémon, and I've always been drawn to collecting things. A run shows you a place, but it doesn't leave you with anything afterward. So Circuit is built explore first, collect second. The run always comes first, and every place you pass along the way gets saved into your own journal.

Frequently Asked Questions

You enter a distance (or how much time you have), and Circuit generates a loop that starts and ends where you are, timed to pass the best-rated nearby points of interest along the way: parks, landmarks, and local favorites, not just the shortest path.

Circuit pulls real, well-reviewed places from Google's map data near your route and scores them by rating and number of reviews, so a spot loved by thousands beats a five-star place with two reviews. It builds your loop around the best ones it can fit within your distance.

Parks, landmarks, viewpoints, historic sites, and notable shops and markets: the kind of places worth actually seeing. Restaurants, bars, and cafes aren't included.

Yes. Your location is used to generate routes and record your runs, and nothing is shared publicly unless you choose to make a run or your profile public. Even then, the start and end of a shared run are trimmed by a privacy radius (200m by default) so your home or workplace is never exposed.

No. You can generate a few routes as a guest with no sign-up. Creating a free account unlocks unlimited routes, your running journal, badges, and the option to follow other runners.

No, Circuit is free to use.

Yes, optionally. Turn on Health sync in Settings and your completed runs are written to Apple Health.

You can permanently delete your account and everything tied to it (run history, journal, saved routes) at any time, right in the app, from Profile → Settings → Delete Account.
