About Headout
Headout is a small motivation app for iPhone that starts from one observation: the hardest part of going outside isn’t the walk, it’s making the decision to leave. So it removes the decision entirely.
Tap Head Out and the app drops one random, reachable checkpoint nearby. There is no route to choose, no distance to set, no fitness goal to hit. You just walk there. When you arrive, GPS detects it automatically and awards XP, which raises your level and gently unlocks longer adventures over time.
Every completed walk is saved with the exact path you followed, so your history becomes a map of everywhere one button has taken you. There are no accounts and no ads. Your streaks, stats and trails live on your device and sync to your own private iCloud, with no server of ours in between.
The daily walk itself is free and unlimited, as are streaks and reminders. Headout Pro is an optional upgrade for the extra walk modes (a quick stroll, a Discover run to a real landmark nearby, or an open-ended free walk), plus full statistics and your complete history.

A reason to go outside.
