Follow Along - Routes & Tours

Follow Along turns any walk, run, or ride into a route you can hand to someone else — as a link or a QR code that carries the entire route inside it. No accounts. No server. Nothing uploaded, ever. FOLLOW A ROUTE Open a shared route and go. The path, your position, and the next stop are on the map, and arrivals announce themselves with spoken callouts — the phone can stay in your pocket. Every stop can carry a name, a story, and a photo link, so a good walking tour feels like the creator is walking beside you. Tours are timed the relaxed way: only the walking counts, never the time you spend lingering at a stop. Workout routes run a race clock instead, with per-segment targets and live ahead/behind. CREATE A ROUTE Record as you go: walk it once while the app lays a trail behind you, and drop waypoints at the turns and sights worth talking about. Elevation gain comes from the barometer. Recording keeps working with the screen locked and the phone pocketed. Or build a tour without leaving your couch: search an address or tap the map to place stops, connect them along real streets, check each pin against street-level imagery, and write the names, notes, links, and walk times your followers will see. On the walk itself, one tap re-pins any stop to exactly where you're standing. SHARE IT ANYWHERE Every route travels as an ordinary link — or as a QR code you can print on a sign, a flyer, or a museum placard. Scanning it delivers the whole route: the path, the stops, the stories. Recipients see a full preview before anything is saved. AFTER THE WALK A results sheet splits walking time from dwelling time, breaks the trip into legs, and — for workouts — lets you turn today's actual times into tomorrow's targets. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Follow Along has no server and collects nothing — Apple's privacy label reads "Data Not Collected." Your location is processed on your phone and stored only there. A route leaves the device exactly one way: you sharing it, to someone you chose. Made for mural walks and museum tours, campus orientations, park loops, running-club courses, and every route worth walking twice.
