When I first built Walk With Me, I thought people would use it the same way I do. But people use it in ways I never imagined. Here are 5 real ways people are using the app.
1. Fitness Walks
Users create walks tagged as "Fitness" with brisk or competitive pace. Walk With Me tracks pace, estimated calories, and incline. Walking with someone who pushes you means you go further and faster.
2. Dog Walking
Dog owners tag walks with Dog Walking purpose and get a special pink paw marker. Other dog owners see it, request to join, and suddenly you've got 4 people and 6 dogs walking through the park.
3. Tourism and City Exploration
Users activate Travel Mode and create walks in cities they're visiting. Locals or other tourists join for walking tours. Some users set custom itineraries with specific stops.
4. Social Walks (Just Hanging Out)
People create walks with no specific goal. Tag it as "Social", write "just want to walk and chat about anything." Some of the best friendships start with a random walk.
5. Women-Only and LGBTQ+ Safe Space Walks
Gender-specific walk options. Creating a Women Only or LGBTQ+ Only walk means walking without anxiety. Same concept as women-only gym sessions.
If you haven't tried it yet, download the app and take your first walk.
