## What is Bread Crumbs Safety?

Your next trail. Your people in the loop.

Bread Crumbs brings GPS trail recording, return plans and trusted Guardian sharing together in one free app. Built for getting outside, it helps you remember where you went and gives the people you choose a clearer picture of your adventure.

FOR THE WAY YOU GET OUTSIDE
Heading out on a solo hike, mountain bike ride, gravel loop or long walk? Exploring a new trail, riding quiet roads or stopping for outdoor photography? Bread Crumbs fits the everyday outings that matter to you and the people waiting for you to get home.

Use Ride for cycling, Hike for hiking, or Other for walks, runs and other outdoor activities. Whether you are planning a day hike, a trail-running route, a bikepacking day or a neighborhood dog walk, start with a simple activity and return plan.

YOUR TRAIL, ONE BREADCRUMB AT A TIME
Record GPS breadcrumbs during an active adventure, including when your iPhone is locked. See your route on the map and review completed adventures in Trip History. Keep a record of the paths, turns and places that made the outing yours.

Choose an expected return time or an untimed adventure. You can share a clearer plan without having to guess the exact length of every stop, scenic detour or trail break.

TRUSTED GUARDIANS, CHOSEN BY YOU
Connect with people you trust: a partner, friend or family member. Guardians can view the shared adventure, its latest reported location and how old that location is. Incoming and outgoing notification settings let you choose how routine updates work in each direction.

Location freshness stays visible. A last-known position is not presented as a new GPS fix. A breadcrumb saved on your phone does not mean it has reached a Guardian.

MAPS FOR DIFFERENT ADVENTURES
Switch between Map, Topo, Aerial topo and Trail-only. View the surrounding terrain or focus on the breadcrumbs you have recorded. Previously downloaded terrain may remain available when reception drops; coverage varies and missing tiles are shown explicitly.

Local GPS recording and remote sharing are separate. Reception, battery and permissions affect what can be recorded or delivered. Downloaded terrain is useful preparation, not a promise of complete offline coverage.

HELP WITH CONTEXT
Send a Help request to connected Guardians and see the reported request status. Optional clothing details can give your people useful context about what you are wearing. Request status is not a guarantee of delivery, acknowledgement or a response.

SIMPLE TO START
Core local recording does not require Apple sign-in. Optional Sign in with Apple helps verify your Bread Crumbs account. Manage your account and sharing in Settings, where you can also initiate account deletion. A saved deletion request is separate from confirmed completion. Review permissions and Rider Setup, choose your adventure, and go. Free to use.

KNOW THE LIMITS
Bread Crumbs is an additional safety tool, not an emergency service. It does not guarantee continuous location updates, message delivery, a Guardian response or rescue. GPS, battery, permissions, connectivity and service availability affect operation. Use Apple Emergency SOS or contact emergency services when needed.

Background location supports recording during active adventures. Notifications and optional safety SMS require permission. SMS availability and background restrictions apply. This version does not provide carrier satellite communication or Apple Watch fall detection.
