Most people run the same three routes forever. Roam turns every walk, run, ride and hike into a way to discover the rest - plan a route in plain English, then paint your map as you explore.
Roam owns the moment before you head out - and turns exercise into exploration.
Every route you finish colours in where you've been. Level up, chase challenges, and hunt down the streets you've never set foot on.
Tell it how you feel - "easy 5k with shade, no hills" - and Roam plans the route. No forms, no fuss.
Every route is scored on scenery, shade, quiet, greenery, traffic and hills - so you get the best one, not the shortest line.
Calm voice guidance and a heading-up map, built for the outdoors. Beat your own best time on any route.
Discover routes shared by people near you - best sunrise, quietest, most scenic - and share your own.
Wherever you live - city, coast or bush - Roam finds great routes right from your door.

Roam is built to help you explore the outdoors, not to harvest your data. We don't sell your information, we don't show ads, and we don't use third-party analytics or tracking SDKs. Here's exactly what the app does with data.
With your permission, Roam uses your device location to find and recommend routes near you and to guide you while you navigate. To build routes and maps, your approximate location (coordinates for the area you're planning in) is sent to the mapping and weather services listed below. Roam does not use your location for advertising and does not sell it.
Roam creates an anonymous account for you automatically - there's no name, email, or password. It's an anonymous identifier (provided by our backend, Supabase) used to keep your data yours: your completed routes, your personal best times, any routes you publish to the community, and any hazards you report. Routes and conditions you explicitly publish to the community are visible to other Roam users; everything else is private to your account.
Roam Pro is a one-time in-app purchase handled entirely by Apple. We never see your payment details.
Your on-device data (saved routes, settings) stays on your device and is removed if you delete the app. To delete the data tied to your anonymous account on our servers, email support@getroam.world and we'll remove it.
Roam is rated 4+ but is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13.
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the "last updated" date above.

Roam generates real routes over the actual path network from OpenStreetMap, then scores each one on scenery, shade, quiet, greenery, hills and more - so you get the best route for how you like to move, not just the shortest line.
No. Roam signs you in anonymously - no email or password. Your routes and progress are kept private to your device and your anonymous account.
