Activities & GPS Tracking

Runs, walks, rides, hikes, and sports — tracked with GPS route, pace, distance, and elevation.

Browsing and adding activities

Move has three segments: Activities, Sports, and Explore. Activities lists everything you track outdoors or indoors — Walking, Running, Hiking, Cycling, and Indoor Cycling to start — with the same search and filter tools as Train. Each row shows what it tracks, like Distance · Pace · Route · Elevation.

  1. Tap + → Add Activity for a blank one, or Browse Library to start from a built-in activity type.
  2. Tap a row to edit it, or tap the play button to start it immediately.
  • Sort options: Manual Order, Favorites, A–Z, Z–A.
  • Swipe a row right to favorite it, left to delete it.

Sports, next to Activities, holds team and racquet sports — basketball, tennis, golf, and more. It starts empty: tap + to add a sport, or Browse Sports Library.

Move → Activities.

The activity editor

Same popup style as Train: an accent header with star/share/Done and the glyph/name, then Start Activity right below, with everything else in a scrollable list.

  • Apple Health — which activity type this logs as (Running, Cycling, Skiing, etc.).
  • GOAL — None, Time, or Distance, with quick presets (10/20/30/45/60/90 min, or 1/2/3/5 mi, 10K, Half).
  • TRACKING — toggle GPS Route, Distance, Pace / Speed, Elevation, and Steps individually, plus Added Weight if you carry a pack or vest.

Starting an activity

Outdoor activities open a Ready to move? screen. It says to head outside and let GPS settle, and lists WHAT'S AHEAD.

  1. Tap I'm Ready.
  2. The tracking screen opens. At first it shows Acquiring GPS Signal — move outside or near a window for the best accuracy. The map and route appear as soon as a location fix arrives.
Ready to move? Tap I'm Ready when you are set.

The live tracking screen

  • Top bar — X ends the activity, the center pill is the elapsed time, and the speaker button controls audio cues.
  • GPS REC — a red dot while the route is recording; it reads PAUSED when you pause. Your heart rate shows on the right when a Watch or sensor is connected.
  • The map follows you and draws your route. The compass shows your heading. The round button on the right toggles between following you and an overview of your whole route; if you drag the map yourself, it becomes a re-center arrow.
  • The stat panel shows DISTANCE, CALORIES, and STEPS on top, and PACE, SPEED, and ELEVATION below, for the activities that track them.
  • Controls — Previous (left), Pause or Resume (center), and the check mark to finish.
A walk in progress: your route, live stats, and the controls.

Finishing

  1. Tap the check mark. Pathium asks Complete activity? — This will save this activity to your history.
  2. Tap Complete to save it, or Cancel to keep going.

A summary opens straight away. See Activity Summary & Explorer for what it shows.
