What is Treadline?
Treadline is a free running and walking app for iPhone and Android that turns your routes into a collection: loop real landmarks like the Eiffel Tower to earn their badges, and claim the ground you cover.
Is Treadline free?
Yes. Recording, distance, pace, elevation gain, friends, leaderboards, this year’s routes and stats, and heart rate and energy on every activity are free. Landmark badges are earned by enclosing landmarks in your territory.
What does Treadline Pro cost?
Pro is optional. Weekly and yearly subscriptions and a lifetime purchase are listed in the App Store and on Google Play. The current price and any eligible offer are shown before you buy and vary by country. Pro adds all-time route history, career stats, heatmap, heart-rate zones and effort, and comparison with friends.
How do I earn a landmark badge in Treadline?
Capture territory enclosing the landmark’s marked location in Treadline. Run or walk a qualifying loop around it; simply visiting or passing the landmark does not earn its badge. The badge stays yours after the territory changes hands.
Can I earn landmark badges by walking?
Yes. You can record walks as well as runs. Landmark badges use the same rule for both: capture territory enclosing the landmark’s marked location. Simply visiting or passing the landmark does not earn its badge.
What are Icons, City and Local places?
Icons are famous landmarks around the world. City places include towers, bridges, monuments and other urban landmarks. Local places include parks, gardens, lakes, viewpoints and peaks. This website lists the live Icons and City catalogue; find Local places in the app.
Can Treadline record automatically?
Yes. With the required permissions, automatic tracking detects sustained runs and everyday walks with your phone in your pocket. It pauses at short stops and ends the session when you are done. You can also start a recording yourself.
Can I import from Strava or Garmin?
Yes, on iPhone. Request your data export on the Strava or Garmin website, then choose the exported .zip under Files in Treadline’s import screen. You can also scan Apple Health for runs and walks. This is an import of existing activities, not continuous account syncing. On Android, Treadline can read runs and walks that other apps saved to Health Connect.
Is there an Apple Watch app?
Yes. On iPhone, Treadline includes an Apple Watch app: start a run or walk from your wrist and see your route. You can also import workouts already saved to Apple Health, including workouts recorded with a watch.
Is Treadline available on Android?
Yes. Treadline is free on Google Play for Android, and free on the App Store for iPhone.
Can I keep my activities private?
Yes. You can hide your live location from friends, hide an activity from everyone, block or report people, and switch off analytics in settings. The privacy policy describes the data collected and your choices.
