Hyderabad · Beta v0
A fitness territory game for India
Apna Ilaaka.
Apni Fitness.
The fitness app where every step claims territory. Walk, run, or cycle your neighbourhood — your route locks in coloured zones on the map. Friends can steal them back. You walk again to defend.

The loop
Walk it. Claim it. Defend it.

Ilaaka · just now
Priya captured your zone
420 m of Road No. 12 is now hers. Walk it back to take it.
Defend or expand.
Friends and rivals can re-walk your streets to flip them. Walk back to take them. Every week resets the leaderboard.
Why people stay
Built for honest walks.
Four answers to the four questions every sceptical Indian friend asks before installing.
F.01
Your real neighbourhood, gamified.
The map is your streets, not a fictional world. Recognise every road you claim — Banjara Hills, Jubilee Hills, Gachibowli.
F.02
Friendly rivalry, not chores.
No daily streak guilt-trips. Lose your zone? Get a notification. Walk back when you feel like it.
F.03
Crews of 10.
Form a crew with your building, society or running group. Claim territory together. Cap is 10 for cohesion.
F.04
Privacy by design.
Your home is yours. Configure a private radius and your zones there stay invisible to everyone.
Made to share
When your run looks this good, you'll want to share it.

Before you ask
Five honest answers.
Speed, the shape of the trace, and how it pauses. Cars sweep wide arcs at corners and don't slow at footpaths; scooters don't stop the way walkers do at signals and crossings. Anything that looks vehicular gets thrown out before it claims a single cell. If a route on your map still looks fishy, the in-app report comes straight to me.
Beta builds ship direct so I can push a fix the same day instead of waiting on a week-long Play Store review. The APK is signed by me and asks for exactly one sensitive permission — location, only while a walk is active. The Play Store listing is in review; once it lands, the app will prompt you to migrate in one tap.
No. Hit start, lock your phone, drop it in your pocket. Android keeps a small persistent notification visible while a recording is running — that's what stops the OS from killing the GPS halfway through. Stop the walk from the notification or the app when you're back. A 30-minute walk costs roughly the same battery as a 30-minute call.
Zones expire 14 days after the last walk through them — yours or anyone else's. Take a 10-day holiday and your streets are all still there. Take a month off and they fade. Walk any one of your old routes when you're back and the whole stretch clicks back to your colour.
Native iOS is in build, not ready yet. Tap Get the app on an iPhone (or scan the QR from a desktop) and you'll land on a one-field email form. I'll write to you the day TestFlight opens — not before, and not as a marketing blast.

Hi, I'm Sri.
I built Ilaaka because the fitness apps I tried felt either chore-like (track everything, hit numbers, never miss a day) or disconnected from the city I actually live in. A run in Jubilee Hills feels different from a run in Banjara Hills — the map should know that.
If you try Ilaaka and something feels off, write to me directly: sricharan.rayala@dotportion.com. I read every email, and your feedback genuinely changes what I build next.
