Runs

What do I need?

An iPhone with iOS 17 or later, location access, and, if you're a zombie, the camera. Bring water and wear running shoes.

How do I join and check in?

Open Events, pick a run and tap Join. On the day, go to the park's meeting place and tap Check in within 150 metres of it, with precise location on. When the organiser opens the gate, the app tells you your role.

Why does Runtasy use my location in the background?

Only during a game, so checkpoints, the cure and zombie alerts keep working with your phone in your pocket. iOS shows the location indicator while it's in use, and it stops when the game ends.

How is a survivor infected?

A zombie scans the code on the survivor's phone. The code changes every 30 seconds. There's no physical contact.

I need help during a run

For emergencies, call 995 (ambulance) or 999 (police). For anything else, find the organiser at the meeting place. They can see where every runner is.
