About this app

Effortlessly keep a digital record of your hours spent outside with the Official 1000 Hours Outside app. Easy timer functionality - just open the app and click play to start the timer, then put the phone down and enjoy the outdoors! The app will track your time in the background so you don't have to think about it.


Additionally, you can become a member so you can:

• Keep a journal of your adventures by jotting down notes
• Upload photos for memory keepsakes for any day
• Add up to nine additional profiles to track individual hours for members of your family
• Unlock hours, place and streak milestone badges to share with friends
• Add friends who also use the app to see what they've been up to
• Color your own time tracking chart
• Use our map feature to see where other 1KHO members have gone on adventures or left reviews - or leave some of your own!

Think of this app as your outdoors companion, but one that isn't designed for endless scrolling - just simple, fun utility to help you unlock all the wonderful cognitive, physical, emotional and mental health benefits of prioritizing time outside!

Used to be an awesome app at $2.99. they have now raised the cost to $29.99 (that's on sale) and you get a map feature, however there are only about 25% of the actual local hours listed on the maps feature, your much better off using all trails or even Google maps for your hiking trails. I love the idea of 1000 hours outside, but tripling the cost of an app is outrageous!! I emailed in with questions because originally Google charged me $19.99. Josh that answers your emails is beyond rude

The only thing you get without the $40/year or $5/month subscription is a timer and the calendar. If there's a way to add hours without the timer I couldn't find it. Every other feature that is shown is for members only. It looks like a cool app, but I don't want to pay a ton for something I can do on a piece of paper or in the notes app on my phone.

This app is great. It's minimalist and serves it's purpose for recording hours outside. My only complaints would be that it automatically shuts off at midnight which makes recording overnight camping a bit more difficult (obviously not impossible) and that it doesn't have a better way to calculate the hours recorded for individual kids outside vs counting individual hours for the whole total.
