Runtastic Presents New Features for iOS 10

Apple just revealed a whole lot of impressive, new features and topics. As announced already at WWDC, Apple’s annual developer conference, Runtastic will be among the very first companies to launch app updates for iOS 10 and watchOS 3. You only have to wait a few more days to check out new Runtastic features on iOS 10. Here’s a sneak peek of what we’ve prepared for you:
Start your fitness activities with Siri now
Siri is your personal assistant on your iPhone. As of now, you’ll be able to control your fitness activities with Siri: “Hello Siri, start a run!” starts a running activity with your Runtastic app. Want to pause, stop or resume it? Just tell Siri. “We’re especially proud to be part of such an awesome project right from the start,” said Florian Gschwandtner, Runtastic CEO and co-founder.
Update for watchOS 3
You spontaneously decide to head out for a run. You lace up your shoes and you’re ready. Yup, that’s it. Runtastic redesigned its Apple Watch app for a smoother start and an enhanced user experience with watchOS 3.
- New design, easy to use
Start your activity directly on the first screen. Plus, get stats for distance, duration and pace at one glance. Oh, and you can see your current heart rate – which is synced in real time – on the main screen, too.
