Lifetime pricing, no recurring fees
Most running apps only sell monthly or annual subscriptions. Pacing offers a one-time lifetime purchase alongside the usual monthly and annual plans. Pay once and there are no renewals or price rises.
Why Pacing?
Pacing is an AI running coach app that builds a personalised training plan and then lets you edit all of it. No smartwatch required. Works offline. Available in 15 languages, with a one-time lifetime purchase alongside the monthly and annual plans.
What makes Pacing different
Phone-only, no GPS watch required
Pacing uses your phone's GPS and optionally a Bluetooth heart-rate strap. No Apple Watch, Garmin, or COROS device needed. The phone stays in your pocket while voice cues guide every interval.
Works offline once a workout starts
After the AI voice is generated at workout start, GPS tracking and audio coaching run without internet for the entire session. Stay in airplane mode if you want. Your run still tracks.
Available in 15 languages
Use Pacing in English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi, Hebrew, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Polish, or Russian. The app picks up your device language automatically.
AI plans you can fully edit
The AI generates a plan from your goal and fitness, then you keep the final say. Swap workouts, change paces, restructure weeks, add rest days. Nothing in the plan is locked.
Your data, on your device
Workouts stay on your phone by default. No required account. Optional end-to-end encrypted cloud backup if you want to restore on a new device.

Common questions
Is there a subscription fee?
Choose monthly, annual, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Workout creation, pacing, and run data are included in every paid plan and won't move behind extra fees.
Do I need a GPS watch or heart rate monitor?
No. Your phone's GPS is enough for pace tracking. Heart rate is optional: on iPhone, Pacing supports AirPods Pro 3 heart-rate sensing, and you can pair a Bluetooth chest or arm strap. Apple Watch isn't currently supported. Questions? Email support@pacing.run.
Does the app require internet?
Only at the start of a new workout, so the voice cues can be generated. They're saved to your phone, and GPS, Bluetooth, and coaching then work offline, including in airplane mode.

Is Pacing available in multiple languages?
