Run free.
They'll know you're okay.
RunSpotter streams your live route, battery, and expected return to the people who love you. If something changes — a fall, a lost signal, a run that goes long — alerts fire on their own. One held button brings help.
⚡ Your spotters install nothing. They just open a link.

They follow one link — that's it
With a battery forecast before you go
Fall · overdue · signal · battery
Three steps between you
and a watched-over run.
Set it up once. After that, starting a protected run takes seconds — and nobody has to wait by the phone.
Set your plan in seconds
Duration, route, tracking speed, and who should know if you're late. RunSpotter even forecasts your battery before you head out.
Your people get one link
Pick your spotters — mom, partner, running buddy. They're notified the moment you start. No account, no download, no setup on their end.
They follow you live
Real-time route, last spotted location, signal, battery, and expected finish — plus the calm note that you're safe and moving.
This is what your people see.
A live demo of the spotter view — the web page your loved ones open from a text. Watch the run unfold, then break something and see how RunSpotter answers.
Demo runs at ~60× speed. In the real app, spotters open this as a live web page — nothing to install.
If you can't reach your phone,
RunSpotter speaks for you.
Silence becomes context. Your spotters know where to start — not just that you've gone quiet.
One-hold SOS
Hold one button to share your exact location with every spotter and open 911. Loud, instant, unmistakable.
Alerts that fire on their own
A fall, low battery, lost signal, a stop that lasts too long, or an overdue return — each triggers an automatic alert with your last known spot.
Calm Rescue Mode
Need a pickup? Spotters get one-tap "Drive to them" and "Hike to them" directions, and you get a route to the nearest road.
Battery-smart GPS
Five tracking presets, from 30-minute expedition pings to 15-second max safety — with a battery forecast before you commit.
Routes & GPX
Upload a GPX file or pick a planned route so your people see where you intend to be — and get alerted if you drift off it.
Race day & family plans
Crew follows your race live. And the Family plan lets a loved one sponsor a runner's membership — they just sign in and go.
Calm by design.
