## What is Motonav?

Motonav is turn-by-turn navigation built for motorcyclists: massive, glanceable directions you can read in a fraction of a second at speed, on a dark high-contrast map that works in bright sunlight.

CURVY ROADS, NOT JUST FAST ONES
Choose your ride before you go: Fastest, No Highways, or Curvy. Curvy routes you onto the twisty back roads riders actually want - trading a few minutes for a far better ride - while steering clear of interstates and dead-straight slab. You get full turn-by-turn the whole way, and if you wander off, it reroutes onto a fresh curvy line from wherever you are.

RIDE-FIRST NAVIGATION
- Huge turn instructions with live distance countdown and the road name
- A "then" preview so you always know the move after this one
- Voice guidance timed for riding, not driving
- Automatic rerouting when you go your own way
- Current speed always visible, with the posted speed limit shown as a real US speed-limit sign
- Arrival time, time left, and distance to go in one glanceable bar

WIDGETS, CONTROL CENTER, AND SIRI
Put your favorite destinations one tap away: Home Screen widgets in three sizes, Lock Screen and StandBy widgets, and a Control Center button that starts navigation without unlocking. Ask Siri to navigate, stop navigation, or read out your ETA - and use those same actions in your own Shortcuts automations.

LIVE VEHICLE DATA (OPTIONAL)
Pair a Bluetooth OBD-II adapter and Motonav becomes a dashboard for your bike or car: RPM, coolant temperature, voltage, and every sensor your vehicle exposes - plus computed gear position, fuel economy and range, and charging-system health, remembered per vehicle. (Requires a compatible Bluetooth LE OBD-II adapter.)

BUILT FOR GLOVES
Every control is oversized and high-contrast. No fiddly gestures, no tiny buttons - designed to be used on a handlebar mount.

LOCK SCREEN + DYNAMIC ISLAND
Directions continue on your lock screen and in the Dynamic Island, with a live route progress bar - no need to keep the app open.

YOUR RIDE, YOUR RULES
- Avoid highways with one tap, recalculated instantly
- Rate roads good or bad as you ride, saved to your account
- Favorites and recent destinations one tap from the home screen
- Give favorites your own names, like "Mom's" instead of a street address

OPTIONAL ACCOUNT, REAL BACKUP
Create a free account and your favorites, recents, road ratings, and settings follow you - through reinstalls, onto new phones. Or skip it entirely and just ride: navigation never requires an account.

Motonav is built by a rider, rebuilt from the ground up around one idea: do turn-by-turn brilliantly before anything else.
