Donuts

Running by Gyroscope was our first iPhone app, and the first we built with React Native. It turned a run from Runkeeper or Strava into an image to share: the route on a map, a photo with the stats on top, or the calories counted in donuts.

It started as cards Anand made by hand in Photoshop after his runs in 2015, and thousands of people used the app in its first month. In July 2016 it folded into the main Gyroscope app with V1.6, bringing the donut counter along with it.
