What's New
Community Rankings
The most worn, most loved, most wanted shoes — updated every Monday. Find the link on the Discover page.
Four tabs: Rotation, Favourites, PRs, and Wishlist. Each shows the top shoes across all public profiles, with movement indicators so you can see what's rising and falling week over week.
How compatible are your shoe tastes?
Visit another runner's profile and you'll now see a compatibility score in the bottom bar — right next to the like button. It compares your shoe selections across rotation, hall of fame, wishlist, and archive, and distils it down to a single number between 0 and 100 %.
Exact same shoe? Full points. Same brand, different model? Half points. Completely different taste in footwear? That's fine too — at least you know now.
The score is symmetric, so you both see the same number. And no, we're not telling you exactly how it's calculated.
A whole new look — and dark mode
myrotation.run has a new face. The whole site moved to an editorial, magazine-inspired design: warm paper tones, a serif typeface for the things that matter (your shoes), and numbered lists that read like a well-set index. Your rotation deserved better typography — now it has it.
And yes — dark mode is finally here. Head to Settings → Account → Appearance and pick Light, Dark, or System. System follows your device automatically. Embedded widgets keep their own theme, and exported images stay light so they look right wherever you post them.
Sharing controls and profile privacy
You now have full control over who sees what on your profile. Each section — Rotation, Hall of Fame, Wishlist, Archive, photos, notes, and km — can be set independently to Public, Members, or Private.
Public means anyone can see it, including Google. Members means logged-in users only. Private means just you.
Notes can be shared with Members but never set to Public — they're for personal thoughts, not for search engines.
On your own profile, there's a new “View as” toggle at the bottom. Switch between Member and Public view to see exactly what others see — tabs that are hidden, photos that are missing, notes that don't appear. What you set is what they get.
Shoe photos and gallery
You can now add a photo to each shoe in your Rotation, Hall of Fame, and Archive. Upload any shot from your camera roll, crop it to the 4:3 frame, and you're done.
On any profile, logged-in visitors see a small camera icon in the widget header. Tap it to open the gallery — a fullscreen view of all shoe photos, organised by tab. Swipe to browse, or use the tab switcher to jump between Rotation, Hall of Fame, and Archive.
Photos are visible to logged-in members only by default.
Strava — sign in, import gear, link activities
You can now sign in with Strava, or connect Strava to an existing Google account from your Settings page. Either way, you get the same features.
During onboarding, your Strava gear is automatically imported — shoes are matched against our database and your total km per shoe is shown on your profile below the brand name. For shoes already in your Rotation, you can link them to your Strava gear at any time from the Settings page.
For each PR shoe in your Hall of Fame, you can now optionally link the Strava activity where you set that PR. The link appears on your public profile — small and subtle, right next to the distance label.
Notes for shoes
Add a personal note to any shoe in your Rotation, Wishlist, or Archive — training context, fit impressions, anything you want to remember. Hit the edit icon on any shoe to add one.
Notes are plain text only, max 300 characters. You control who sees them via your sharing settings — either Members only or just yourself. They're never indexed by search engines.
From the Rotation you can move a shoe straight into the Archive — it carries the note and tags with it. From the Wishlist you can move a shoe into your Rotation the same way.
Archive — a home for your retired shoes
Got shoes you no longer run in but don't want to forget? The Archive lets you collect all your retired shoes — up to 50 of them. Add tags and a personal note to each one.
Archive visibility is controlled via your sharing settings — keep it private, share it with members, or make it fully public. When visible, it appears as a tab on your profile.
Follow runners, like profiles, get discovered
myrotation.run now has a social layer. You can follow other runners and like their profiles. Two new feeds — Discover and Following — show you what people in the community are running in. Your profile appears there based on your sharing settings.
Feeds are only visible to signed-in users. Likes reset when you update your profile so the feedback always reflects what you're actually running in right now.
Wishlist
Save shoes you want to try. The Wishlist shows up as a third tab on your profile and in the embeddable widget — same look and feel as your Rotation. Adding a shoe to your Rotation automatically removes it from the Wishlist.
Rotation expanded to 10 shoes
You can now add up to 10 shoes to your current rotation, up from 6. Export images still show your top 6 — reorder in your Rotation to choose which ones make the cut.
Swipe between tabs on touch devices
On phones and tablets you can swipe left and right to switch between Rotation, Hall of Fame, and Wishlist — no need to tap the tabs.
