Your outing on foot, with what your watch saw.
Mountain hike, trail run, Sunday jog: your Garmin watch records everything, YouMetry lays it over the video shot with a phone or a GoPro. Heart rate, pace, cadence, climb, outing summary, and the route replayed in 3D over the real terrain, with a figure that walks or runs at your pace.
What YouMetry reads
- The FIT of your Garmin watch (Forerunner, Fenix, Venu, Instinct…) exported from Garmin Connect: heart rate, running cadence, altitude, temperature, steps.
- Any GPX track: another watch brand, a phone, Strava, Komoot. With GPS alone you get speed, route, altitude and the summary; no heart rate.
- Video from whatever camera you like: phone, GoPro, Insta360, DJI Osmo. A GoPro or an Insta360 also brings its own GPS.
What you get
- Heart rate with zones (and an optional beep), pace and distance, running cadence, thermometer, gradient, watch panel.
- The outing summary at the end of the video: distance, time, average and adjusted pace, climb, average heart rate, splits per kilometre and altitude profile.
- The route replayed in 3D over terrain and aerial imagery, with place names, a figure that walks or runs at your cadence, and ×64 playback for long outings.
- The weather of the outing (temperature, sky, wind) loaded on your consent, and an export as a finished video or a transparent layer for your edit.
How to do it
- Export the activity as FIT from Garmin Connect (or as GPX from your app), film with whatever you have.
- Open the video in YouMetry, import the file: the Other mode sets itself from the file’s sport.
- Align the data with the picture (the start is enough), pick your gauges, export.
Questions
Do I need a Garmin watch?
No: any GPX track is enough for speed, route, altitude and the summary. The Garmin adds heart rate, cadence and temperature.
My watch is not a Garmin: does it work?
Yes, if it exports a FIT or a GPX (Coros, Suunto, Polar, Apple Watch through an export app…). Heart rate is read if it is in the file.
Do I need an account or a connection?
No. No account, nothing is uploaded: your videos and data stay on your computer. Terrain and weather load on your consent.
