Getting started
Your first walk with Trailbound
A walking game does not walk for you. Your real movement advances a character on a virtual map, whether you are commuting, walking the dog or taking a loop around the park.
Connect your step source
Allow access to compatible steps and distance in Apple Health or Health Connect. First check that recent activity reaches that source.
Start a journey at zero
Choose Don Quivano or the Odyssey. Distance collected after your journey starts moves you along your adventure map.
Progress at your own pace
Between fixed story locations, the map shows the distance to your next milestone. You do not need to visit real locations or record a GPS route.
Start solo for free with up to 3 km of adventure progress per day. Pro removes the limit with a one-time purchase; Social is a separate, optional monthly subscription for friend battles.
