How to create a running app

Questions about Thunkable

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to create a simple running app in Thunkable, but I’m really struggling with setting it up. I want the app to:

  • Track the user’s route on a map
  • Measure distance covered
  • Pace
  • Have a timer to track the run

Does anyone have a project like this that I could look at to understand how it works? Or any advice on how to get started with these features?

I’d really appreciate any help!
Thank you in advance:)

I can’t tell you everything you would need to do, but here are some things you should have in your project:

  • A timer component
  • Geolocation with Google Maps (Android, iOS and/or web API required)

You can get the Google Maps API through the Google Cloud Console.

i figure out how to do few things, but distance and pace are showing 0, even though i move

Hi Jania, I am working on a project that is essentially the same as what you are/were working on. Did you have much success with what you were looking to achieve? I too am trying to get a solid grasp on how a project like this works :slight_smile:

Sorry for the long wait;

Geo-location may not work within Thunkable Live, or Thunkable Editor. You should download it into an APK (Android Package Kit) and install it into your Android.

Walk around your street and see how it is.
