/OVERVIEW

Challenge

Most running apps show you twenty numbers after every run. I wanted to see what a running app looks like if it shows one.

Approach

Orbit Run reads your last week of runs and answers a single question each morning: easy or hard. I designed the home screen, a weekly ring and a few Rive animations for the moment you finish.

Outcome

A personal study, not a product. It changed how I design dashboards for clients: start from the one decision the screen helps someone make. I kept the motion small: the ring fills as the week goes on, and a soft pulse marks a rest day. Everything was tested on my own runs for a month, in rain, in the dark and with cold hands, which changed the size of every button.
