I really like the idea. Seems like I'm the first walker in my city, but the concept is exactly what I wanted.

What a walking buddy actually looks like here
It starts with one person you pair with, grows into a small pack, and opens onto a whole community of walkers. Here is how that unfolds.
Find your duo the natural way
You do not get handed a stranger and told to make it work. You find a walking buddy by walking together first: join someone's walk from the map, add them as a friend afterwards, and pair up once you know you actually get along. From there the two of you can see each other's daily steps and send a once a day wave, a small hello that says you are both still in this. It is deliberately low pressure, one person who notices whether you moved today, which turns out to be most of what accountability really needs to be.
Grow the duo into a pack
One buddy is a great start, but some weeks you want a few more people keeping you honest. A Walk Pack turns your duo into a small group of up to five who pool their steps toward one weekly goal, shown as a bar the whole pack watches climb. A quiet day from you is visible, and a strong day from someone else carries the group forward. The pack gets its own group chat for plans and encouragement, so it holds together as a team rather than a list of names. It is the natural next step once one walking partner has you hooked on having company on the route.
A whole community on the board
Beyond your buddy and your pack, there is everyone else out walking. The step rankings put you on a live daily and monthly leaderboard next to walkers from your own country and around the world, so a solitary habit suddenly has a room full of people in it. You can send a cheer to anyone on the board and get one back, a small tap of encouragement that makes the list feel like a community rather than a scoreboard. Finding one walking buddy is how it starts, but the leaderboard is the reminder that you have joined a whole community of people who decided walking is better shared.

What is a Walking Buddy?
A person who walks with you regularly for fitness, socializing, or companionship; Walk With Me connects you with nearby walkers whose schedule fits yours.
Walking alone gets old. Walk With Me helps you find walking buddies nearby whose schedule and interests fit yours. No more excuses to skip your daily walk.
See walkers and walks near you on a live map, and set how far out to look in the filters.
Filter walks by interest (fitness, social, hiking, photography, dog-friendly), length, duration and the days you prefer. Find someone whose walks fit yours.
Send friend requests to walkers you connect with. Over time, build a trusted network of walking buddies you can walk with anytime.
Group walks make it easy to meet new people without the pressure of a one-on-one meetup. Walk with 3, 5, or 10 people at once.
Never miss a walk. Get notified when someone near you starts a live walk, when a friend plans one nearby, or when a walk you joined is cancelled or starts early.
After a walk, add the people you enjoyed walking with as friends. Build lasting connections with people who share your love of walking.
The safest way to meet people walking is structured: hosts approve join requests by default and walk pins on the map are shifted, so a stranger becomes a walking buddy through the same safe walking layers regular groups use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Open the live map to see walks and walkers near you. Filter by interest, distance, length and preferred days to find walks that suit you. Request to join their walk or create your own and let others find you.
Yes. You can filter walks by interest (fitness, social, hiking, photography, dog-friendly), length, duration, how far ahead they are and your preferred days. Every walk is planned at a moderate pace, so there is no pace filter, but scheduled walks show their times so you can find ones that fit your routine.
Walk With Me has 10 layers of safety. A walk's pin on the public map is shifted by up to 200 meters, walk hosts approve join requests, blocking is instant and invisible, and reports are reviewed within 24 hours. Group walks reduce one-on-one pressure.
There is no algorithmic matching. You browse a live map of walks near you, filter by interest and schedule, and choose who to walk with. Over time, you add people you enjoy walking with as friends to build a trusted network.
You are not locked into anyone. Walks are scheduled one at a time unless you set them to repeat, so if someone stops turning up you simply join or host different ones. Profiles show how many walks someone has done, which gives you a feel for who reliably shows.
No. Some walkers keep one regular buddy, others join whichever walk suits their day. Both work: you can add people as friends to see their scheduled walks, or browse the map fresh each week without any commitment.
