What it does
Watch the line draw itself as you walk. Distance, duration, pace and calories, all tracked automatically.
Every walk becomes a clean card with your route and stats on it. Built for Stories, not spreadsheets.
Compare weekly distance with other walkers. Competitive enough to get you out the door, gentle enough to stay fun.
Find people walking dogs around you. Dog walking is the most social exercise there is — the apps just never treated it that way.
How it works
No account needed to try it.
One tap before you leave the door. No setup, no pairing, no account required to record your first walk.
Jupiter draws the route live and tracks distance, pace and calories while the phone stays in your pocket.

Real screens
Before you download
Yes. Tap start and Jupiter records your route on a live map, along with distance, duration, pace and estimated calories. You do not have to enter anything by hand.
An iPhone running iOS 17 or later. The live map and pace tracking use the same location services as any GPS run tracker.
Jupiter uses the same location APIs as other fitness trackers and stops recording as soon as you end the walk. For walks over an hour, expect battery use comparable to any GPS run tracker.
Yes. Walks can be logged for whichever dog you took out, so households with more than one dog can keep each dog’s activity separate.
GPS itself does not need cell service, so your route still records on trails and in rural areas. Syncing and the leaderboard update once you are back in range.
