WorkOutDoors is the most advanced and most configurable workout app for the Apple Watch. It's perfect for running, cycling, hiking and any other indoor or outdoor activity.
Note: WorkOutDoors requires an Apple Watch Series 3 or later. It is not necessary to have your iPhone with you during a workout.
WORKOUT HIGHLIGHTS

- All workouts are saved to Apple's Health system and are viewable in the Health & Fitness apps
- Export workouts as FIT/TCX/GPX files, or automatically upload to Strava (even from the watch)
- Dozens of alert types (e.g. mile/km notifications; high heart rate; low speed; zone changes etc)
- Configure which metrics are displayed and/or spoken for an alert
- GPS signal strength shown before starting a workout, so you can wait for a good signal
- Create your own Interval Schedules: e.g. Warm Up for 5 minutes, Run 5 miles; Cool Down
- Supports Bluetooth sensors for speed, cadence, distance, heart rate & power (including Stryd)
- Zones can be configured for heart rates and also for pace and power metrics
- Associate actions with gestures: e.g. double tap to start a new interval, or to show music controls
- Auto-pause available for many outdoor activities (including Apple's algorithm where available)

MAP HIGHLIGHTS
- Maps can be cached on the watch for use when offline
- Topographic vector map option with configurable contours and hill shading
- Maps can be smoothly panned and zoomed, and can rotate according to the compass
- Map-only mode for when you don't want to start a workout and just need a map
- Uses OpenStreetMap, which includes the trails necessary for outdoor workouts
- Maps cover the whole world. No further purchases or subscriptions required for anything
- A breadcrumb trail of your whole route is displayed on the map during the workout
- A scale is shown on the map when you zoom, making it easy to see the distance to features
- Load GPX routes and display them on top of the map to aid navigation
- Routes are coloured by gradient: from red for steep uphill to blue for steep downhill
- Get alerts when you deviate from or return to the GPX route
- Waypoints in routes are shown as icons (supports "groundspeak" geocache data)
- Shows a red compass pointing north and a green compass pointing to the start
- Tap the green compass to see the distance to the start (double tap a compass to hide it)
- "Smart Contours" use different colours to make it easier to read the terrain at a glance
The app also has many, many more features (far too many to list here!).
All this is included for a single one-off payment. There are no extra in-app purchases or subscriptions. If you own an Apple Watch and do any form of exercise, then WorkOutDoors is the app for you. Give it a go!

The app that brought me back to Apple Watch
Long story short; I used the app ages ago and loved it, but fancied a watch other than from Apple. Bought another (COROS), but missed the customisation and capability of WorkOutDoors so much it eventually brought me back to Apple. This is my favourite app and my sole reason for owning an Apple Watch. I recommend it to anyone - there’s admittedly a bit of a hurdle setting it up the way you like, with there being so many metrics, but once you have it working for you, it has no equal.
Best Fitness App
So impressed and totally now after using the WorkOutDoors App am a a dedicated user. I have been using fitness apps for over 15 years and have never had one as informing, detailed and reliable as this app. Being able to load vector maps onto a Apple Watch is excellent. Well done team on a brilliant app. PS It is pretty straight forward to use but it doesn’t hurt to read the ready available online users manual. Also would be good to have a comments/notes field for each workout.👍🏼
Amazing fitness app
Amazing fitness app, pretty much Garmin level metrics from an Apple Watch and it works natively with the Apple health ecosystem! Excellent and responsive developer - highly recommend!!
Awesome app
Love how easy it is to customise almost ANY type of workout. Works great with Strava too. Well worth buying. Keep it up

Fantastic!
Best app I've found so far to have a map on your wrist.
Scrolling the map is extremely smooth and fast.
It is worthwhile to invest some time finding out about the features this app offers.
Keep up the great work!
App takes over watch.
The app took over my watch.
Even when closing and removing it it would reappear on the main face.
Had to delete it to remove it.
Used it for just 45 minutes.
Avoid.
