Distance Goal

Set a goal. Log your distance. See what's left.

Distance Goal is a simple distance goal tracker for walking, cycling, running, and other manually logged activities.

Create a goal, such as 50 km in July, then add your distance whenever you complete an activity. The app shows your total progress, how much distance remains, your percentage complete, and the average distance needed per remaining day.

No GPS. No maps. No social feed. No account. Just your goal and your progress.

Deliberately simple

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Distance Goal does one job well: it keeps track of a distance goal and the progress you log against it.

Create a distance goal

Set a target distance and a deadline — for example, 50 km by the end of July.

Log your distance manually

Add walking, cycling, running or other distance entries whenever you complete an activity.

See your progress at a glance

Completed distance, remaining distance, percentage complete, and the average you need per remaining day.

Review your entry history

Look back over everything you have logged towards your goal.

Your data stays on your device

Goals, entries and notes are stored locally on your phone. Nothing is sent anywhere unless you choose to join a buddy group.

New in version 2

Walk it together

Share a code with a friend, your family or your coach, and see how each other is getting on. There is still no account, no sign-up, and no way for anyone to search for you — the only way into a group is a code you send someone yourself.

  • Your progress is encrypted on your phone before it is shared, so the server carrying it cannot read it — and neither can we.
  • Names are picked for you from a fixed list, so nobody can put something unkind in one. There is no chat, no photos and no free text at all.
  • Rename or hide anyone privately on your own phone, and leave any group whenever you like.
  • Distance from your gym machine or your watch can count too — but only from apps you were asked about and agreed to share. Never a workout, a route or a time of day.

Buddy groups are entirely optional. Until you create or join one, the app makes no network connections at all.

Journeys

Follow a real route

Start a goal from one of the built-in challenges and your progress moves along an actual path — Hadrian's Wall, the Camino, Route 66, the Great Wall and more.

The app tells you which landmark you have just passed and how far it is to the next one. No maps, no GPS and no network — just the distance you have already logged, placed along a route.

Made for goals like these

What will you use it for?

Walk 50 km in July

Set a monthly walking target and chip away at it day by day.

Cycle 100 km in a month

Log each ride and watch the remaining distance shrink.

Keep an honest, simple record of your progress towards a sponsored distance.

Keep a simple manual record

A clean logbook for your distance — without GPS, maps or tracking.

Privacy first

Simple by design, private by default

Distance Goal is designed to be simple and private. It does not require an account, does not use GPS, and does not show adverts. Your goals, entries and notes are never sent to Bluetorch Consulting Ltd — and if you join a buddy group, the few figures that are shared are encrypted on your phone first, so we cannot read them either. It connects to Google Health Connect only if you switch on optional auto-tracking — read-only, processed on your phone, and never shared with a buddy group unless you agree to it app by app.
