Every walking app I tried wanted to optimize my walk. Pace, splits, calories, leaderboards. I just wanted to walk, think, and sometimes sit quietly.
Pilgrim started as a fork of OutRun (an open-source run tracker some of you may remember from HN) and became something completely different — a tool for walking as practice, not performance.
The tech I'm most proud of: voice transcription runs entirely on-device via WhisperKit. You can talk through your thoughts on a walk and read them back later, and nothing ever leaves your phone.
Would love to hear what you think. The source is at github.com/walktalkmeditate/pilgrim-ios if you want to poke around.
