Running with Waykeep
Waykeep is an open-source running and sports tracker for Android 8.0 and newer. It records routes, distance, time and pace in a training log stored on your phone, without an account, cloud sync, ads or analytics.
What does it record for a run?
Review your route, distance, moving time, total time and pace after a recording. Pace charts show a single metric over distance or time; kilometre or mile splits show pace and elevation gain and loss. Personal bests and weekly or monthly totals help you review your activity history.
Can it track running offline?
Recording works without an internet connection. The map normally downloads tiles and caches the ones you have viewed. Offline mode stops tile requests. Cached tiles are not the same as a complete downloaded region: unviewed areas may lack a basemap when you are offline.
Is it a marathon training app?
Waykeep provides a running log with distance, pace, splits and activity totals. These can help you review runs during marathon preparation, but the published documentation does not describe a marathon training plan, coaching programme or race-time prediction. It is a tracker, not a substitute for a training plan.
Can I export my runs?
Export tracks as GPX 1.1, KML 2.3 or KMZ 2.3, with photos in KMZ. Exports can be manual or automatic after each recording if you configure them. Sharing is your choice; there is no automatic social feed or cloud sync.
Where your data goesHow is Waykeep related to OpenTracks?
Waykeep is a fork of OpenTracks. It adds an in-app offline-capable map, a redesigned activity feed and charts, share images, personal bests and recording diagnostics. The source is available on GitHub under GPLv3, with upstream licence notices preserved.

Yes. v1.1.1 is signed and installs on Android 8.0 or newer. Open the downloaded APK and allow installation from the app that saved it; Play Protect may ask you to confirm. Waykeep is distributed directly from GitHub releases rather than a store, so updates arrive as a new APK you install over the old one.
