GPS tracking and visual activity sharing
iSard is an Apple-platform GPS tracker for running, hiking, trail running, walking, and cycling. It records routes and presents live distance, pace, speed, duration, and elevation-gain data, with support for tracking and viewing workouts on Apple Watch.
The app is designed around recording, reviewing, and sharing outdoor activities. In addition to an activity history and GPX route import, it turns routes into terrain-based 3D replays and customizable cards containing maps, statistics, and photos. Downloadable maps are intended for navigation in areas without a signal, while goals and race alerts support longer-term activity planning.
