Editor's Overview

RunnerUp is a sports & health application developed by F-Droid Open Source, packaged as a single Android APK of version 2.1 weighing in at 8.02 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

Install Checklist

  1. Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
  2. File size is a light 8.02 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
  3. This build is signed by "F-Droid Open Source" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
  4. After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
  5. We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

Explanation to anti-features:

* NonFreeNet: Uploading to Strava and other services makes use of non free net services. (The uploading is open similar to uploading a .tcx file, but the services are not open.)
* UpstreamNonFree: The Play version (can be installed at the same time as the F-Droid version) has additional features using non free libraries, see below

Features removed compared to Play version:

* Map view (OsmDroid instead of MapBox, no MapBox API key in free)
* WearOS app (requires non-free Play services)
* HR ANT+ connectivity (requires closed source lib)
* Runalyze and Dropbox upload (Requires API keys. Runalyze test upload possible.)
* Download customized apk to device (F-Droid binary is universal for all supported binaries).

Frequently Asked Questions

Is RunnerUp free to download?
Yes. The APK file linked from this page is free. The developer may offer in-app purchases once installed, but obtaining the installer itself costs nothing.

What Android version does RunnerUp require?
Android 4.1+ or newer. Installing on older devices may cause crashes or refuse to install.

Is RunnerUp safe to install?
We link to the exact APK published by F-Droid Open Source. We do not modify the file. Still, as with any sideloaded app, scan it with a reputable antivirus before opening it, and only grant permissions the app genuinely needs.

How do I update RunnerUp?
Install the newer version on top of the old one — Android will keep your data. If the signature differs, uninstall first (you may lose local progress).

Why is the app not installing?
Common causes: not enough storage, an older Android version than 4.1+, or a conflicting build already installed. Free up space, check your OS version, and uninstall any previous copy before retrying.
