What's New in Incase
1.1.0
April 11, 2026
RECORD YOUR ROUTES The most-requested feature is here. Hit the new Track button and Incase records your entire GPS trail in the background — even with your screen locked. Replay any route with an interactive map, elevation and speed charts, and a scrubber that lets you step through every moment of your journey. Distance, duration, elevation gain, max speed. Everything logged, nothing sent anywhere. Perfect for hikes, runs, road trips, or retracing your steps when it matters most. REDESIGNED SAVED PINS Your pinned locations received a major upgrade. Search and sort your entire list. Swipe to delete. Tap into a full detail view with a hero map, exact coordinates, and one-tap directions. Finding that trailhead or parking spot has never been faster. EMERGENCY STROBE A rapid-fire strobe light joins the SOS panel alongside the flashlight and siren. All three stay active even if you navigate away from the screen. SMARTER BACKGROUND LOCATION Track recording continues when your phone is locked. A blue status bar lets you know Incase is working. The moment you stop recording, background access stops too. Your data never leaves your device. CRASH RECOVERY If the app closes mid-recording, your track is automatically recovered on next launch. No data lost. Also in this update: — Compass now handles devices without a magnetometer gracefully — Refined action bar with Pin, Track, Copy, and Share in one clean strip — Tighter layout so the full screen fits without scrolling — Performance improvements and bug fixes throughout
