Results

How far do you want to go today? What sights do you want to hit? Encountering new sights stimulates a runner's curiosity. And curiosity makes each run even more exciting. On the other hand, so many runners feel bored of running on the same route on the daily runs. Just by setting your "mood of the day" within RUN NAVI, you can dynamically find your own personalized route and "sights of the town", synchronously updated on Google Maps and Google Places. And its sound navigation notifies you of turning points, also letting you know when you've reached your chosen sights. Furthermore, your unique encounters with sights on running can be also posted and shared with others. Evoke your curiosity with RUN NAVI.
