Your Privacy Matters
I take your data seriously. Here's how I protect it.

All your health data stays on your device. Garpple processes everything locally - I never see your runs, heart rate, or any personal health information. Only basic account info (like your email) goes to my servers for app functionality.

A Quick Note from Me

Hey! I'm a sub-3 hour marathon runner chasing my first Boston Qualifier at the Chicago Marathon in October. I built Garpple because I wanted the detailed training insights that Garmin provides, but I love my Apple Watch too much to switch.

This app is my way of helping fellow Apple Watch runners train smarter and achieve their goals. Every feature I build is something I use in my own training, so you know it's practical and useful.
