01 / What works with RunV

What does each device do?

FREE

Your phone

You do not need a watch. Your iPhone or Android phone records the run with GPS.

  • Record every run, free, forever.
  • Voice cues speak your kilometre or mile splits.
  • See the route map, splits, pace and elevation chart afterwards.

FREE TO RECORD · PLANNED SESSIONS ARE PREMIUM

Apple Watch

Send any planned session to your Apple Watch and start it from your wrist, or just hit Just Run. Finished runs sync back to the app.

  • Time, distance, pace, live heart rate and calories while you run.
  • Planned sessions show the current step and the time left, with spoken cues.
  • Sessions are sent one at a time, when you start them.
  • Needs watchOS 10 or later.

FREE TO RECORD · PLANNED SESSIONS ARE PREMIUM

Wear OS

Send any planned session to your Wear OS watch and start it from your wrist, or just hit Just Run. Finished runs sync back to the app.

  • Time, distance, pace and live heart rate while you run.
  • Sessions are sent one at a time, when you start them.
  • For recent Wear OS watches.

CONNECT FREE · PLAN SENDING IS PREMIUM

Garmin

Send your RunV plan to your Garmin watch through Garmin Connect, and bring your finished Garmin runs back into RunV.

  • Works with Garmin watches that sync to Garmin Connect.
  • Connecting Garmin and bringing your finished runs into RunV is free.
  • Plan sending is part of Premium (and the 7-day trial).
  • Garmin runs are only looked at by AI if you have turned AI analysis on.

FREE

Strava

If you connect Strava, RunV sends the runs you record to Strava: the route, time, distance, heart rate and calories.

  • RunV does not read or import your Strava activities.
  • To bring in recent runs from another app, import them from Apple Health or Health Connect.

FREE

Apple Health and Health Connect

Import recent workouts from Apple Health (last 20 days) or Health Connect (last 30 days). On iPhone, your finished RunV phone runs are saved to Apple Health.

  • You pick the workouts to import. Nothing is imported until you tap.
  • Runs that come from Apple Health or Health Connect are never sent to AI.
  • You can take the permission away at any time in your phone's settings.

IMPORT

Polar

Link your Polar watch and your Polar runs import into RunV, including pace and heart rate.

COROS is coming soon. Not supported: Suunto. RunV no longer connects to Fitbit (Fitbit closed its connection for apps on 2 November 2026).

02 / Questions

Asked often

Which watches work with RunV?

Apple Watch (watchOS 10 or later), recent Wear OS watches, and Garmin watches that sync to Garmin Connect. You can also run with just your iPhone or Android phone.

Do I need a watch to use RunV?

No. Your phone's GPS is enough to record a run and hear voice cues. A watch adds live heart rate and lets you start a session from your wrist.

Does RunV sync with Garmin?

Yes. RunV sends your plan to your Garmin watch through Garmin Connect and brings your finished Garmin runs back into RunV. Connecting Garmin and bringing runs in is free. Sending the plan is part of Premium and the 7-day trial.

Does RunV import my runs from Strava?

No. Strava is send-only: RunV sends the runs you record to Strava. To bring in recent runs from another app, import them from Apple Health on iPhone (last 20 days) or Health Connect on Android (last 30 days).

Does RunV work with COROS, Suunto or Fitbit?

COROS is coming soon. RunV does not connect to Suunto, and it no longer connects to Fitbit, because Fitbit closed its connection for apps on 2 November 2026.

Is using my watch with RunV free?

Recording a run on Apple Watch or Wear OS is free, and so is connecting Garmin and Strava. Sending planned sessions or your plan to a watch comes with Premium, because the plan itself is Premium.
