What Wovia is

A walking & running tracker, with a kinder heart.

Track every walk and run, watch your movement weave a thread, and keep it all private.

🚶

Track

GPS walks and runs with a Live Activity, splits, pace, heart rate and cadence.

🧵

Weave

Every active day weaves your thread. Consistency, without the guilt of streaks.

👥

Together

A small private Circle: shared steps, live walks and cheers. Kind, never a race.

🔒

Private

Local-first. Your data stays in Apple Health, on your device. No ads, no tracking.

How it works

A thread, not a streak

Streaks punish the day you miss. A thread doesn't. It grows when you move, and bends when you rest.

Your thread

Every day you move weaves it longer.

A day you meet your goal is woven in. A rest or travel day is a gentle bend, and the thread never snaps. Your whole month reads back as one continuous line, with today's coral dot still being written.

Honest insights

Numbers that encourage, never judge.

Splits, pace, heart rate and cadence, always measured against your own past, never a leaderboard. A slower day is called gentler. Wovia never scolds.

Together

A small circle, moving with you.

Create a private Circle by code: shared daily steps, live walks, planned walks and one-tap cheers. Kind by design: one shared goal, no ranks, ever. And every bit of it is encrypted.

More inside

Deeply native, quietly powerful

🚶

Walk & run tracking

GPS routes, Live Activity, intervals, auto-pause.

🌤️

Smart forecast

What to wear, when rain hits, the best window to move.

Widgets & Watch

Home & Lock widgets, complications, a Watch app.

🫶

Simple Mode

One switch: larger, calmer, plainer. For anyone.

Yours, privately

Your movement never leaves your phone.

Wovia is local-first by design. The app reads a store on your device; the cloud only ever syncs what you switch on.

  • Steps, workouts and routes stay in Apple Health, on your device.
  • No advertising, analytics or tracking. Ever.
  • Circle sharing is opt-in and encrypted, readable only with your circle code.
  • Export as GPX anytime; delete your shared data in one tap.

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026 · Wovia for iOS

Wovia is local-first. Your steps, workouts, heart rate, routes and sleep stay in Apple Health on your device and are never uploaded by us. This policy explains the little that is shared, and only when you choose it.

What stays on your device

All of your health and fitness data, your routes, preferences, feelings and notes. The app reads a local store; there is no account and no login.

What is shared, and only if you opt in

What we never do

No advertising. No analytics SDKs. No third-party tracking. We never sell or share your data with data brokers, and Health data is never used for advertising.

Legal basis & your rights

Where the sharing features involve personal data, the legal basis is your consent, which you can withdraw at any time: leave a circle, stop live sharing, turn off Community Pulse, or tap Delete my shared data in Settings. Export your data as GPX anytime (portability), and request access, correction or erasure by contacting us below.

Processors & retention

Apple (iCloud / CloudKit) processes the shared data described above on our behalf. Live-walk presence expires within minutes; other shared records persist until you delete them or leave a circle.

Children

Wovia is not directed to children. The social and location-sharing features are intended for a general audience.

Automated content

Some short encouragement lines are generated on your device by Apple Intelligence. They are motivational only, never medical advice, and are not created from other people's data.

This website

This site stores only your language choice in your browser (localStorage). It uses no tracking, no analytics, and no advertising cookies.

Data controller & international processing

The data controller is the developer of Wovia, based in the United Arab Emirates. Full controller contact details are published on our App Store listing (as required by the EU Digital Services Act) and are available on request by email. The optional shared features are processed through Apple iCloud (CloudKit) and accessed from outside the EU; by turning on a sharing feature you consent to this processing, and can withdraw at any time.

Support

How can we help?

Where is my data stored?

On your device, in Apple Health. Wovia is local-first: it reads a local store and never uploads your health data or routes. The only things that leave your phone are the opt-in Circle, League and Community features in our Privacy Policy, and the Circle payload is encrypted.

Do I need an Apple Watch?

No. Wovia tracks GPS walks and runs from your iPhone. With an Apple Watch you also get a Watch app and complications.

How do I delete what I've shared?

Open Settings › Safety & privacy › Delete my shared data. It removes your circles, live walks and league entry from iCloud. Your Health data stays on your device.

Can I export my routes?

Yes. Every workout with a route exports as a standard GPX file any app can read. Your data is yours.

Is Wovia medical advice?

No. Wovia is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice. Its readiness, effort and pace are for encouragement only. Talk to a doctor before starting or changing how you exercise.
