The problem

Why crews leave the group chat

Group chats are built for talking. Running crews need three things the chat keeps losing.

Every one of these is a card in the chat. Tap once, and the whole crew sees the answer.

The board

Runs that don't get lost

Every run is a card with a date, a spot, and RSVPs, never a message that scrolled away. The next one is always at the top when you open the app, and one tap says you're in.

Crew chat

Chat that keeps the plan

Photos, GIFs, replies, reactions, and @mentions, with the week's runs and races pinned above the conversation. Runs, races, and polls land in the chat as cards the crew answers in one tap.

Races

Every race, one card

The date, the registration link, and who's in: registered, training, or still deciding, with a countdown on every card. Trail races come as topo postcards, road races as bibs.

Race day

Your crew is on the course with you

Tap Start Race Day and the card becomes a race-morning companion: elapsed time, fuel reminders that buzz in your vest, and the notes you wrote when you could still think. Every cheer lands on your screen mid-race.

Notifications

Buzzes for what matters

Pick a level per crew. Quiet hours hold the rest until morning, and race day always comes through. Open the app and "Since you were away" lists exactly what you missed.

Your crew, your rules

Run it like a crew

Open join or approval required. Co-admins so you're not the only one who can post the run. Invite by link, by QR code, or in the app. Report, block, and remove stay with the crew's admins.

Ten minutes

Move your crew this week

For the person who posts the Saturday run.

1
Get it.

iPhone or Android app, or the web app on anything else. Sign in with your email, no password.

2
Create the crew.

A name, a line about who you are, and your area so people can find you.

3
Share the join link.

Paste it in the old chat with one line: "We're moving here." Tapping it lands people in the crew, even before they have the app.

4
Post the next run.

It's the first thing people see and it's why they stay.

5
Pin the join link

in the new chat for the stragglers. Most crews are fully moved within a week.

Questions
Is it free?

Yes. Crews, runs, races, race day, polls, photos, all of it. No ads.

Who can read our chats?

Only the people in the crew. Nobody at Usual Suspects reads messages, and admins see who's active and how much, never what anyone said. Nothing is sold or shared. Delete your account any time and everything goes with it.

Android and desktop?

Android has its own app on Google Play. Desktop uses the web app at app.usualsuspects.app, same account and same crews.

What happens to our old group chat?

Nothing. Keep it open while people move over. Most crews find the last few come across the first time they miss a run.

Can I run more than one crew?

Yes. Be in as many crews as you like, with a notification level for each. Races can be shared to more than one crew and keep one roster and one thread.
