Made an iPhone app that tracks which streets you've walked

A few months ago I posted my Android app here and got a lot of helpful feedback. Some early users are still active, and their feedback has helped shape the app further.

CityWalker tracks the streets you walk and shows how much of your city you've covered. It can now also suggest a walk: a loop through streets you haven't covered yet.

Same principles as before:

  • Free, no ads, no account
  • Everything stays on your phone
  • Import existing walks from Strava, Garmin, Komoot or any GPX file

Available on the App Store and Google Play. More at citywalker.app.

I am a developer in the Netherlands and tested it on walks here. Feedback is very welcome, especially from iPhone users.

CityWalker - walk every street in your city, watch it fill in on the map

CityWalker turns your city into a map you fill in by walking it. Every street you walk gets marked, and you can see what percentage of your city (or any city you visit) you have actually covered. Works anywhere in the world, map data comes from OpenStreetMap.

This is the first iOS build, already on Android. Looking for testers across different iPhone models and iOS versions to shake out crashes and layout issues before the App Store release.

What's useful to test: starting and ending a walk, GPS track accuracy, automatic city detection, street coverage filling in correctly, walk history and stats.

Privacy: location is only used while walking or detecting your city. Walk data stays on your device. No account, no sign-up.

Feedback via the TestFlight app (screenshot or shake) or comments. Expect the occasional rough edge.

I built CityWalker for people who want to walk every street in their city.

Key features:

  • Free. Everything stays on your device. No account, no sync, no data collection beyond basic anonymous analytics.
  • Works offline once you download a city
  • Uses OpenStreetMap data
  • GPX import and export

Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.citywalker.app 

Happy to answer questions.
