About

Three parkrun participant barcodes. Seventeen themes. Six colourways. RunCode Pro turns your compatible Garmin watch into a personal barcode wallet for you, family members or anyone sharing the watch. Save your own barcode, add family members or prepare a shared watch. Each enabled valid profile keeps its own theme, colourway and optional ICE details, so one person's information never appears beneath another person's barcode. THE COMPLETE RUNCODE EXPERIENCE - Up to three participant profiles - Code 128 participant barcode for every valid profile - Seventeen themes on compatible colour displays - Six colourways on compatible colour displays - A separate theme and colourway for each profile - Separate optional ICE details for each profile - Fast profile switching; disabled or invalid profiles are skipped - Responsive layouts for supported AMOLED, MIP, round and rectangular watches - Measured text fitting for longer names and participant IDs - Zero requested permissions - No developer-operated networking, analytics, advertising or account SEVENTEEN THEMES Minimal Black, Minimal White, Park, Track, Rose Pace, Wildflower, Plum Night, Pearl Line, Retro Run, Sunrise Route, Coastal Run, Finish Line, Night Track, Star Route, Aurora Bands, Motion Grid and Contour Loop. PERSONAL FOR EVERY PROFILE Choose a different theme and colourway for each enabled participant. Switching wraps through valid profiles while disabled or incomplete profiles stay out of the way. Each person's optional ICE details remain isolated to that profile. SETUP Open RunCode Pro settings in Garmin Connect or Garmin Express. Enable each participant you want to use, enter their name and ID, then choose that profile's appearance and optional ICE information. Enter an ID as A followed by digits, lower-case a followed by digits, or digits only. Valid input is normalised automatically; spaces, punctuation and other letters are rejected. Use the watch control shown in Help to cycle through enabled valid profiles. Switching wraps around, and single-profile position clutter is hidden. DISPLAY AND DEVICE AVAILABILITY RunCode Pro is available only for compatible watches shown on this Store page and where Garmin supports paid apps. On supported monochrome Instinct-family displays, Pro retains three profiles and separate ICE details but offers only Minimal Black and Minimal White. Other themes and colourways require a colour display. Very long participant IDs containing 15–16 digits may not fit a compact monochrome screen without distorting the barcode. RunCode Pro shows a clear fallback instead; carry your official barcode for that participant. Eligible 240, 260 and 280-pixel high-colour watches can choose Standard or Large barcode height. Other models use a layout selected for their display. App Glance is unavailable on some watches. PRIVATE BY DESIGN RunCode Pro requests zero permissions and has no developer-operated networking, analytics, advertising or user account. Settings use Garmin's application-settings system and may synchronise through Garmin services under Garmin's privacy terms; the RunCode developer does not receive participant or ICE details. IMPORTANT RunCode Pro is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by parkrun Global Limited or Garmin Ltd. Barcode performance can vary with the watch, screen condition, lighting and scanning equipment. Carry your official barcode as a backup, particularly until you have checked RunCode Pro in your own event conditions. ICE information is optional and provided for convenience only. It is not a substitute for professional medical identification or emergency services.
